Finally watched Carl Sagan’s Cosmos, a TV series produced in the 1980s. I don’t think there are many people like Carl Sagan. The show he created is so delicate, with many complex emotions. It’s captivating, fun, sad, and melancholic. The original music was composed by Vangelis, and it’s hard to imagine how it could be better.

We’re now rewatching the sequel by one of his students — Neil deGrasse Tyson. While it covers similar topics and has better graphics, it feels a little shallower.
