[QUOTE="kilted1, post: 78346, member: 540"] I'm with you there Ol' Dawg, Carl Sagan did much to extend my sense of wonder ... I recall laying on my back in our yard in 1969 while between my second and third years in elementary school wondering how our countrymen had walked on the moon. Our family went to an event called "Moon Rock" at some museum (don't recall which one) where behind a glass dome you could look at a single rock that Astronauts had brought back from the moon. Our limited visitation of other worlds since has not dulled my sense of longing for knowledge of things beyond our world. I don't ever recall thinking that Carl Sagan was as much a 'scientist' as he was a presenter of ideas ... someone each generation needs to keep the dream of our human Odyssey alive. We must remember many of Earths greatest discoverers were thought insane ... dreamers who set out to prove that which was doubted. [/QUOTE]
