More From Carl Sagan

I never said it. honest. oh, i said there are maybe 100 billion galaxies and 10 billion trillion stars. it's hard to talk about the cosmos without using big numbers. i said "billion" many times on the cosmos television series, which was seen by a great many people. but i never said "billions and billions." for one thing, it's too imprecise. how many billions are "billions and billions"? a few billion? twenty billion? a hundred billion? "billions and billions" is pretty vague. when we reconfigured and updated the series, i checked-and sure enough, i never said it.

And when the universe has finished exploding all the stars will slow down, like a ball that has been thrown into the air, and they will come to a halt and they will all begin to fall towards the centre of the universe again. and then there will be nothing to stop us seeing all the stars in the world because they will all be moving towards us, gradually faster and faster, and we will know that the world is going to end soon because when we look up into the sky at night there will be no darkness, just the blazing light of billions and billions of stars, all falling.
Stars Moving Fall
Once he created the big bang... he could have envisioned it going in billions of directions as it evolved, including billions of life-forms and billions of kinds of intelligent beings. as a theologian, i would say that the proposed search for extraterrestrial intelligence (seti) is also a search of knowing and understanding god through his works - especially those works that most reflect him. finding others than ourselves would mean knowing him better.

I think uncertainty is good for things. certainty breeds complacency and complacency means that you just sit somewhere in your nice little comfortable suburban house in michigan, looking at cnn and saying, "oh, those poor immigrant children that are all coming across the border. but we really can't have them here - that isn't what god wants. let's send them all back to the drug cartels." there's a complacency to it.
