About Carl Sagan
Carl Edward Sagan (9 November 1934 – 20 December 1996) was an American astronomer, planetary scientist, cosmologist, astrophysicist, astrobiologist, author, and science communicator. His best known scientific contribution is research on extraterrestrial life, including experimental demonstration of the production of amino acids from basic chemicals by radiation. Sagan assembled the first physical messages sent into space, the Pioneer plaque and the Voyager Golden Record, universal messages that could potentially be understood by any extraterrestrial intelligence that might find them. Sagan argued the hypothesis, accepted since, that the high surface temperatures of Venus can be attributed to, and calculated using, the greenhouse effect. He testified to the US Congress in 1985 that the greenhouse effect will change the earth's climate system.

Additional quotes by Carl Sagan
The fact that we cannot now produce a detailed understanding of, say, altered states of consciousness in terms of brain chemistry no more implies the existence of a ‘spirit world’ than a sunflower following the sun in its course across the sky was evidence of a literal miracle before we knew about phototropism and plant hormones.

«بدلاً من أن نعترف بأننا جهلاء في كثير من المجالات، نميل إلى قول أشياء من قبيل أن الكون غاص بما يجل عن الوصف. فهناك إله للفجوات مُكلف بالمسئولية عن الأشياء التي لم نفهمها بعد. وحينما تحسنت المعرفة الطبية منذ القرن الرابع ق.م. تزايد ما نفهمه وقل ما اضطررنا إلى أن نعزوه إلى التدخل الإلهي — سواء ما يتعلق بأسباب الأمراض أو بعلاجها — فقلت الوفيات عند الولادة ووفيات الأطفال الرضع، وطالت أعمار الناس، وحَسَّن الطب نوعية الحياة بالنسبة للمليارات منا في كل أنحاء العالم.»
