And in celebration of Mr. Sagan I have just popped Contact into the DVD player. This movie gets a fairly undeserved panning for it’s ending, but I find the rest of the movie very moving and inspirational.
Can I suggest the Trinity review Contact as part of their Cosmos arc? I think it would round things off nicely.
The movie is “For Carl” after all…
To quote Elly:
“There are four hundred billion stars out there just in our galaxy alone.
If only one out of a million of those had planets and if one out of a million of those had life and if just one out of a million of those had intelligent life there would be literally millions of civilizations out there”
sigh…
