Carl Sagan accomplished many things in his life, from Mars mission to the messages on Voyager 1 and 2. He was an accomplished fellow, but perhaps his greatest achievement would be his ability to make people curious to the ways of the universe. His TV program COSMOS has inspired generation of scientist and science enthusiast. He not only made people awe in the seer amazement of the universe but encouraged kids and adult alike to work on solving the mysteries.
“I already knew I wanted to become a scientist, but that afternoon I learned from Carl the kind of person I wanted to become. He reached out to me and to countless others. Inspiring so many of us to study, teach, and do science. Science is a cooperative enterprise, spanning the generations.” Neil de Grasse Tyson describing his meeting with Carl Sagan.
