But how is this relevant to my interests

Get the fuck out, Sagan is ALWAYS relevant to your interests.

Pic related.

Homework assignment:

I need a picture of Sagan's cock.
Don't fail me, /sci/

OMFG serrendipity: Captcha = over tormars

I think Carl Segen is a cool guy. eh is making shows about Comsos and he doesn't afraid of anything

>send message to space with info about us and our location
>in the future hostile aliens come to earth and fuck with us
thank you carl sagan, was he high on drugs when he sent that message? i have no respect for this junkie drug addict

>>2088591
>Implying any sufficiently advanced race wouldn't discover us by our radiowave transmissions anyway before they ever happened upon the probe.

>>2088612
well...yes...

i run on the assumption natural evolution has made at least one species or thousand that have no need for technology...they grow what they need and are quite capable of space flight...being a hive mind would only be a bonus too since there would be no need for transmission or receiving equipment of any kind much less the notion what it was
they would tear it apart any probes though to try to figure it out ...and any passing humans too

..murder would be a foreign concept to them...it would be like clipping your toenails is to you, and not the termination of an ENTIRE genetic line like it is for us.

they call it "words"

>>2088591
Hey, where'd you get the awesome pic?

>>2088685

Aliens are hostile!

>>2088685
Been reading HPL, have we?

Ender's Game, Mazer Rackham says something along those lines, using the clipping your toenails analogy too.

the horrors only begin gentlemen.
the imagination of mere men has nothing on what nature actually comes up with on this very festering ball of mud we reside on.

Go ahead...try to imagine now what it does with the rest of the universe

>>2088958
yes...i literally cut and pasted it

we all have our lazy days you know

The case for Phobos

Phobos, one of the two moons of Mars, has itself always been considered a rather mysterious object, as has its smaller twin, Deimos. Joseph Shklovskii noted member of the Soviet Academy of science and co-writer with Dr Carl Sagan of 'Intelligent life in the unverse', once calculated from the estimated density of the Martian atmosphere and the peculiar "acceleration" of Phobos, that the satellite must be hollow. Could Phobos be a hollowed-out space station of huge proportions?

In July 1988, the Russians launched two unmanned satellite probes - Phobos 1 and phobos 2 - in the direction of Mars, and with the primary intention of investigating the planet's mysterious moon, Phobos. Phobos 1 was unfortunately lost en route two months later, reportedly because of a radio command error. Phobos 2 was also ultimately lost in the most intriguing circumstances, but not before it had beamed back certain images and information from the planet Mars itself.

Pic related the last image shot by the unmanned satelite Phobos 2 before it was "destroyed under strange circumstances"

Cosmos is hilariously bad by todays standards. He also wasn't that much of a scientists so I wonder why every "science fan" wants to suck his cock?

I was in my comp sci class the other day when my TA told the class it was carl sagans anniversary.

Everybody was like "who"?

She said he was a man who Asimov thought was more intelligent than he was.

The hipsters laughed and said Asimov being a science fiction writer, wasn't a good bar on intelligence. then proceeded to joke about how being a famous author qualifies you for mensa.

I am glad I'm a schizoid, or I might have been angry at this.

Popularized science, which in this world is better for science than actually doing legitimate science.

Don't blame or demonise carl, blame the worlds poor attention span.

>>2089347
I mad.....

Carl Sagan was a prick

>>2089347

>>2089363

Yep, thats right.

Pick of the litter.

>>2089363
eh was a cool guy and didn't afraid of anything

>>2089351
Well he didn't too a very good job as he is mostly known in America and Americans are pretty science retarded.

Carl Sagan once raped my dog, and I just held his jacket and smiled.

>>2089482
Dirty furfaggot Sagan.

I bet that's why he was so boner about aliens, he thought they would be anthros.

>>2089490

It's funny because he's actively trying to make us mad.

i found this a few days ago on the net,

http://www.liquidpoker.net/poker-forum/932411/Carl_Sagan_Appreciation_Thread.html

how does it feel to know that a poker forum appreciates carl sagan more than a science board. good one assholes.

>>2089546
That's because they're desperate to look smart, while we're desperate to look smarmy.

Better or worse?
