Onward To The Edge!

I had already planned to post the video, perhaps tomorrow, after I got the notice from Symphony of Science earlier today, but I decided it couldn’t wait when J. Major (of the Lights in the Dark blog) reminded me that today was Carl Sagan’s birthday:

A perfect accompaniment to Carl Sagan’s birthday (he would have been 77 today) here’s a wonderful music video created by John D. Boswell as part of his Symphony of Science project. Featuring Neil deGrasse Tyson, Brian Cox and Carolyn Porco, this takes you on an inspirational journey around our solar system, and reminds us – very much in the spirit of Mr. Sagan – of our place in the Universe and what it feels like to look back at our planet from oh-so-very far away.
