Thank you Mr.Carl Sagan for writing the book - COSMOS .
It gives in depth idea about evolution of life, evolution of science and evolution of cosmos
The progress of science right from the use of fire to alchemy to space n nuclear technology.
How our simple naked observation to manned n unmanned spaceship to voyage in deep vast space of cosmos, not only that but beautifully describe how various civilization reaches up to this level of homo sapiens and mark themselves as most intelligent spices not only on earth but entire universe because till date we do not find iota of other beings or any form of life in space .
In this lead two fundamental question arise
Who has made this world - universe ?
How does it come into existence this world - the universe ?
As an individual or civilization
Always this question haunted the mind
but which one is more important question out of this two
Who or How
Both had three letters but arrangements make difference.
Similar way for any individual or civilization out of this two point which one is significant n given priority makes a big difference in a progress as an individual of community or civilization
The curiosity and habit of inquiry is very basic instinct which helps us to reach up to this mark in history of cosmos
but don't forget the contribution of gene who gone under mutation n selectively survive n give promotion to higher species
Not only that the evolution of brain is the major contributor for our progress as species who believes in science
So basically three kind of evolution
Cosmic evolution - bigbang, galaxy, stars, planets etc
Biological evolution - just from simple molecule to complex organic chemistry
From DNA - gene
From unicellular to multicellular organism
From just replicating molecule to highly intelligent conscious being
Human evolution - from just primitive life to phase of advanced life
just running here and there as hunter gatherers to interstellar voyager
human intelligence to artificial intelligence.
A book provide a unique opportunity to play with space time
Where you at one time - time travel in distant past in form history of science ,various scientists and their experiments , various civilization which nurture scientific approach, aptitude
While at the same time simultaneously
You travel in space from planets to stars to intergalactic space how they have been formed and evolved
One time it talks about science, its inventions n progress
Same time it look up to humanity, human behavior its implications in our progress as species in the form of civilization
At last The book and author also put a very significant question in front of us
We have resources n technology
But how we use it , what its outcome we saw at the time of world War
With advancement in technology we rather create heaven on earth we put ourselves in crisis we all know as species
An as the years progress this is going to be deep n deep where it may be possible we have to fly away from very beautiful earth
For that day we have to prepare ourselves not only that we have to put our resources n technology and intelligence in right direction
So not only we survive
But maintain our existence as species in this cosmos
Thank you again - Mr Carl sagon
