In this episode of Dirt Nap City, we journey back to the golden age of space exploration to celebrate a man who ignited a passion for the universe in millions: Carl Sagan. More than just an astronomer, Sagan was a cosmic poet, a scientific evangelist, and a visionary who bridged the chasm between complex scientific concepts and the everyday curious mind.

Join us as we explore the enduring legacy of Carl Sagan – a scientist who dared to dream big, to ask profound questions, and to remind us that we are all, in the most literal sense, stardust. His voice continues to resonate, urging us to embrace scientific inquiry, protect our precious home, and never cease our exploration of the universe within and beyond.
