A couple Carl Sagan WIs

by bm2617@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Jul 2, 2008 at 03:34 PM

Quick and with not much thought involved:


1. Carl Sagan never born. Will the Voyager spacecraft carry a message
similar to OTL? How will TV popular science programming be affected by
the absence of "Cosmos?" Will the notion of "nuclear winter" become as
big a part of the nuclear debate of the early 80's? (On the plus side,
we will be spared a crappy movie starring Jody Foster).

2. Carl Sagan fails to contract myelodysplastia and is still going at
73. How does he react to the current non-reality-based administration,
the Dawkins and co. countercharge vs fundamentalism, 9/11 and the
other manifestations of our currently rather "Demon-Haunted World?"
Chances he might get another TV show, or would he be considered a bit
of a has-been by this point?
