Cosmos has been seen by at least 500 million people across 60 different countries.Sagan always advocated Scientific Skeptical Inquiry and the scientific method, pioneered Cosmology and promoted the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence(SETI).To say the least, he inspired an entire generation of curious minds to look up and wonder our place in the Cosmos. He died at the age of 62 on December 20th , 1996 in Seattle after suffering from Myelodysplasia followed by pneumonia.
