Happy 75th Birthday to Carl Sagen !

Ann Druyan, the wife and long-time partner of Carl Sagan often said that Science is as spiritual as any religion. What it lacks is good music. John Boswell may have created the first "scientific hymn". In this video called, "A Glorious Dawn", he pays tribute to Sagan. I think it's a wonderful blend of science, art and creative license. Druyan could have stopped the video with a threat of copyright infringement but did not. Instead, she praises Boswell and says that Carl Sagan would have loved it.
