A Still More Glorious Dawn Awaits

Here's The Symphony of Science, where John Boswell posts his autotuned snippets of Cosmos and other scientific talks, turning them into song. Here's Ann Druyan discussing the songs on the 365 Days of Astronomy Podcast.

The sky calls to us
If we do not destroy ourselves
We will one day venture to the stars

A still more glorious dawn awaits
Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
A morning filled with 400 billion suns
The rising of the milky way.

Carl Sagan

Man. That's shameless geek foreplay right there. No wonder we love him.

Happy Birthday, Carl.
