Sagan: "Its called radio" Me: tears fill eyes

@laaxe 13 лет назад

While on the crew of Contact, Carl sent us weekly thanks for the way the film was turning out. The final week of shooting, Carl had passed away. I've never been so attached to a project, and will admire Carl & Ann as long as I'm on this silly rock. BTW - Never be afraid to be an atheist. No one helps us more than one another.

@Aaron_Gentry 9 лет назад

I've thought for a long, long time now that it's not a question of if - it's more a question of where and what. What kind of beings are they? Where is their home world? How advanced (or backwards) is their level of technology? How long have they existed for? Do they look up at the stars on their home world and wonder like (some of us) do if they're all alone in the dark?

As long as we all do our part, anything can be achieved. Even, quite possibly, the hardest challenge of all.. Keeping the great majority of humanity from falling behind as science pushes us forward into the great and wonderous unknown.

This just makes me depressed. Hearing the aspirations in this man's voice as he talks about what we should be focusing on as a species, and we just closed down the facilities to do so. Heartbreaking.

When I listen to Carl Sagan's voice, I feel hopeful. When I look down from this video to the comments below, filled with hatred and anger alongside of it, I want to cry, and not in the usual, good way that Sagan makes me want to cry.

Let's go to Europa and find some Alien Sharks, once we find life even small types of life in our own solar system outside of Earth I think things will begin to change for us all in a big way. We will know life will take hold where it can and that once and for all we are not specially made nor was this universe specially made for us.

Carl Sagan suddenly woke from a slumber of 13.7 billion years, and 15 years ago forever returned to that sleep. He found him self in a world filled with hate, intolerance, ignorance and death. He did the best he could through the power of science and understanding to help make that world as free and as beautiful as he could. Do not let his message and time on earth be in vein.

@blueshift314 12 лет назад

of course we did. we knew there were other galaxies other than the milky way at least as far back as the early 20th century. Sagan's time was the late 20th century. In fact, in his show, the cosmos, he talks about how at first we didn't know, and then we found out. then we figured out the further the way, the faster they were moving away from us.

@Felivii 12 лет назад

Well radiowaves are electromechanical waves and so is visible light. So we've been communicating with light since the radio( if you exclude smoke signals of course :-)).

@Coolmenest You know what I love most about science? The fact that, without it, we wouldn't be communicating with each other right now. And medicine. I quite like medicine.

@DesolateGrunt 13 лет назад

I'm sad to say in my debate team at the highschool I attend, we have the topic of the Advancing of Space Programs. Only 3 people agree to advance while the rest laugh at SETI, NASA, the ideas to expand the human race outwards into space. They call it a waste of money and time. These are the people soon to be the future voters, citizens, and possibly leaders of our world's nations. I wish they could understand the words of Sagan, and realize the ignorance of their words. It hurts man

@Theorycraft 13 лет назад

@NobDickBalls Through human evolution as our brains develop so do our emotions, because emotions are part of our brain. This means we get more sophisticated. They say that kids are cruel, that's because a child's brain is underdeveloped, and as they get older there brains develop they get more sophisticated and less cruel. With that in mind when we meet an advanced alien civilizations millions of years ahead of us there is no way they would ever be hostile because they would be too sophisticated

@Justsomeoneyoucouldhaveknown 4 года назад

An argument against the idea that a distant civilization is too far advanced to use radio waves as communication. We still use conventional microscopes to discover and and grow our understanding of things that more advance (and expenses) electron microscopes can also detect. To say a civilization will completely stop using a technology because it's obsolete is nonsense we still use H.A.M. radios and there are still people who practice Morse code just for the fun of it. I'm Shure that in the future even our own society will have technology's at there disposal for recreational use that is nowadays just not a option be it because of things like price or politics.

@adastraperaspera99 13 лет назад

if and when we ever make contact, I have a feeling that people will comment about how Carl Sagan helped get us there. After all, he was one of SETI's earliest supporters and a well known public advocate of the extraterrestrial search program.

@JimKuback2009 12 лет назад

Radio is light, chief. It's just a lower wavelength of light. Basically, the spectrum (from lowest-energy to highest-energy) is radio, microwave, infrared, visible spectrum, ultraviolet, X-ray, gamma and ultra-high energy gamma. The light that you can see is the same as radio, except EM radiation at radio frequencies is invisible to the human eye.

We should divert those resources into further spreading our presence through our own solar system. Establishing outposts on other planets, moons and asteroids is the next logical step in space exploration not wasting efforts trying to detect radio signals that probably don't exist and are useless to us even if they did exist. You need attainable goals for space exploration to thrive, not pinning all your hopes on a shot in the dark. SETI has wasted decades with nothing to show for it.

@vdizhoor 13 лет назад

I think the best we could send/receive Primes toward/from nearby Galaxies (M31, M33, LMC, etc.) 1. Small region of sky for us, Billions of stars receiving. Chances our transmission encounter some curious civilization increased. 2. Even in Milky Way reply might take a millennium. I say, ignore the details, and simply let them know that THEY ARE/WERE NOT ALONE. We should listen to M31 for messages sent 2Mya. And also greet our future brothers who are at "present" still climbing trees.

@StrongHeartLives 13 лет назад

I can't really ever wrap my head around why there could be an alien civilization sending out radio signals in a proximity close enough to receive them by us. I just really think that if there is by some happenstance a civilization that uses radio waves for communication the odds that they are in close enough proximity for us to hear them in maybe even possibly a 100 million years of existence on this planet may be a long shot to say the least. Space is a BIG place and Radio Waves are very slow.
