Can you imagine waking up this morning to this song playing on the radio?
“A still more glorious dawn awaits/
Not a sunrise, but a galaxyrise/
A morning filled with 400 billion suns (whoa!)/
The rising of the Milky Way (at this point my head would explode from imagining the scale)

Holy shit! That IS awesome. I didn’t think it was possible to make Carl Sagan more awesome than he was, but here you go.
William George: That ought to be HOLY F-CKING SH-T. Jaw droppage. Awe. Total awe.
This remix confirms the realization that Sagan was trying to use poetry and metaphor to explain astronomy and physics.

We need a lyrics sheet.

I never thought I’d ever describe a “YouTube remix” as beautiful, but…well, there it is.
Cool! I used to love Sagan…
I wish I was half as optimistic as Carl Sagan.
What a guy.
How awesomely appropriate is it that auto-tuned Carl Sagan sounds exactly like Kermit the Frog?
[…] And now for something completely upbeat. (Thanks MGK) […]
