My New Favorite Band: Carl Sagan and the Physicists

There have been plenty of autotuning videos posted on the web. I personally think we are at the end of that trend. But I couldn't help reposting this one because the content is so amazing it deserves to be heard in any form. Thinking about how large the cosmos is and how small we are in comparison is a thought that keeps me sane. And not so much because it means we are insignificant so we shouldn't worry so much about the day to day stuff but because we are significant. We really are connected to everything; each other, the earth, the stars. It's comforting to know that I'm part of a larger network that contains all that ever was and all that ever will be. It's like a blanket I can always keep wrapped around me.



The video is from symphony of science. You can check out their info on the youtube page where I initially got this video.
