In case you have no idea who Carl Sagan is… well, you should, basically. Carl Sagan is one of those men who brought science to the people, making numerous fields such as astronomy, astrophysics, exobiology, and many, many more accessible for the masses. He published more than six hundred research papers and popular science works, and reached the minds and hearts of millions. He also wrote the novel ‘Contact’, after which a movie was made (despite the fact that it doesn’t quite follow the book).

He also made a wonderful series of documentaries, which I highly recommend for absolutely everybody. Entitled ‘Cosmos: a personal voyage‘, the series lucidly and clearly explains topics such as Einstein’s theory of relativity, Darwin’s evolutionary theory, pollution, how galaxies are formed, etc. The 13 hours of documentaries should make their way onto television all the time if you ask me, but until then, you can grab them from here. Sadly, not all of them can be embedded here, so I will only put the link for these ones.

Black Holes Might Not Be Cosmic Dead-Ends But Rather the Beginning Of White Holes

This colorful web of wispy gas filaments is the Vela Supernova Remnant, an expanding nebula of cosmic debris left over from a massive star that exploded about 11,000 years ago. This image was taken with the Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera (DECam), mounted on the US National Science Foundation's Víctor M. Blanco 4-meter Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile, a Program of NSF’s NOIRLab. The striking reds, yellows, and blues in this image were achieved through the use of three DECam filters that each collect a specific color of light. Separate images were taken in each filter and then stacked on top of each other to produce this high-resolution image that contains 1.3 gigapixels and showcases the intricate web-like filaments snaking throughout the expanding cloud of gas.
