Secular Legal Society - Carl Sagan Day
Room III
1111 East 60th Street, Chicago, Illinois 60637
Please join the Secular Legal Society and Secular Student Alliance to celebrate Carl Sagan Day with a Cosmos watch party.
Carl Sagan was a Professor of Astronomy and Space Science and Director of the Laboratory for Planetary Studies at Cornell University, but most of us know him as a Pulitzer Prize winning author and the creator of Cosmos. That Emmy and Peabody award-winning PBS television series transformed educational television when it first aired in 1980, but now, thirty years later, it’s gone on to affect the hearts and minds of over a billion people in sixty countries.
No other scientist has been able to reach and teach so many nonscientists in such a meaningful way, and that is why we celebrate Dr. Sagan, remember his work, and revel in the cosmos he helped us understand.
