"Our Place in the Cosmos", the third video from the Symphony of Science, was crafted using samples from Carl Sagan's Cosmos, Richard Dawkins' Genius of Charles Darwin series, Dawkins' TED Talk, Stephen Hawking's Universe series, Michio Kaku's interview on Physics and aliens, plus added visuals from Baraka, Koyaanisqatsi, History Channel's Universe series, and IMAX Cosmic Voyage. The themes present in this song are intended to explore our understanding of our origins within the universe, and to challenge the commonplace notion that humans have a superior or privleged position, both on our home planet and in the universe itself.

RIP Dr. Sagan and Dr. Jastrow!

Lyrics:

[Narrator]

With every century

Our eyes on the universe have been opened anew

We are witness

To the very brink of time and space

[Robert Jastrow]

We must ask ourselves

We who are so proud of our accomplishments

What is our place in the cosmic perspective of life?

[Carl Sagan]

The exploration of the cosmos

Is a voyage of self discovery

As long as there have been humans

We have searched for our place in the cosmos

[Richard Dawkins]

Are there things about the universe

That will be forever beyond our grasp?

Are there things about the universe that are

Ungraspable?

[Sagan]

One of the great revelations of space exploration

Is the image of the earth, finite and lonely

Bearing the entire human species

Through the oceans of space and time

[Dawkins]

Matter flows from place to place

And momentarily comes together to be you

Some people find that thought disturbing

I find the reality thrilling

[Sagan]

As the ancient mythmakers knew

We're children equally of the earth and the sky

In our tenure on this planet, we've accumulated

Dangerous evolutionary baggage

We've also acquired compassion for others,

Love for our children,

And a great soaring passionate intelligence

The clear tools for our continued survival

[Michio Kaku]

We could be in the middle

Of an inter-galactic conversation

And we wouldn't even know

[Sagan]

We've begun at last

To wonder about our origins

Star stuff contemplating the stars

Tracing that long path

Our obligation to survive and flourish

Is owed not just to ourselves

But also to that cosmos

Ancient and vast, from which we spring

When Dawkins goes into the "matter flows" thing, who else does he sound like? I'm thinking Paul Darrow, but I'm not sure.

Think about this for a moment:You are currently a passenger (and, indeed, an integral crew member) on board a four-point-five billion-year-old, semi-self-sufficient spacecraft.This spacecraft flies in tight formation with billions of other craft--some, much, much smaller; some, much, much bigger--all relying on a shared external power source, which is billions of times the size of even the largest other ship in your formation.Your formation is just one in a grand fleet consisting of many billions of similar formations, all relying on an even greater shared external power source.Your fleet is currently travelling to intercept and join ranks with another similar fleet, billions of miles away.In billions of years, when the two fleets have successfully integrated, they will adopt a new course: a new mission--and they will continue travelling. United.*...And we keep killing each-other en masse to see whose imaginary friend is the best.*

*Our minds are the only thing separating us from other animals. Thus reason and logic has to be what we have to use to evolve further. We have to use what sets us apart from other animals.* *Do you want to know the Fundamental Truth about Yourself and Life?* *If you do,* go to TruthContest◙Com and read "The Present".

The Anti-Theist

Science Poem.The scientific method,is what separates us and the religious apologists,by definition we're in a constants yin and yang style of conflict,it's true that both existence,but only one is true and that's the one which should remain to stand and push us into the future,and the latter should surely fall back into the past in which it was forged, in the unknown, soon knowable world,in our primitive confused state of infancy we tried to answer the big questions of our Universe, before there was philosophy there was religion,and the latter should surely fall, despite it's disbelief in the theory of gravity, it should surely fall.
