Cosmos. Possible Worlds

This is a continuation of the classic saga by Carl Sagan and the next segment of the journey through space and time — to worlds that are billions of kilometers away from us, to the science of the future. Both... the book and the new season of the popular science series it is based on assert that science and civilization have always gone hand in hand. Ann Druyan, co-author and faithful companion of Carl Sagan, has gathered evidence for this piece by piece: both at the bottom of the ocean, where life originated, and in space, which our space stations are currently exploring, and in the history of the Universe, which began at the moment of the Big Bang, and among the most bizarre forms of life that have ever inhabited the earth. With her innate talent for telling complex things simply, using impressive illustrations, she recalls the landmark discoveries in human history, space missions, including "Voyager-1," which Ann and her husband Carl participated in sending to the stars. And her goal is to help us reawaken our awareness of ourselves in the cosmos and on this planet — a pale blue dot in the vast dark expanse.
