Rewatched the first episode of Cosmos. Still as awesome & inspiring.as ever. The spectacle of moving from cosmic to galactic to solar system scale, then reaching Earth is still inspiring, but it was Sagans demonstration of Eratosthenes working out the curvature & circumference of the Earth by watching shadows cast by sticks on the longest day of the year that fascinated.me most. Carl Sagan was without doubt the coolest creature to ever wear corduroy.
