Inspiring Things to learn from Science!! What Cosmos: A Spacetime Odessy Teaches Us

Cosmos: A Spacetime Odessy, is streaming on Netflix and is Mindblowing!! I was awestruck by the depth of our space and the perception of reality. In a matter of size, importance and luck, to be Human Being on Earth is to be lucky af!!

Cosmos pushed the boundaries of my personality in what I can achieve!!

Here are the things I learned:

1) What appears need not be true!!

Cosmos tells us about "Ghost Stars" and similarly, we can meet ghost humans, pretenders who don't deserve our attention.

2) Earth is in dynamic motion, so should we!!

Earth, Sun, Solar System, Milky Way and the Observable Universe is in a constant state of motion, we are not fixed in position as much we are in relative position. 

We should not get stuck!!

3) A Tiny Blue Dot!!

We are so, so, so small in this enormous universe & sometimes carry such big ego's. It's time we shed our ego's aside

4) Actions Speak Louder than Words 

Issac Newton, not exactly a "Man of Words" but his 3 laws changed the scope of science and Human Life. We should learn that some folks are better doers than speakers and that matters.

5) Early Curiosity Greatly Benefits Mankind

William Herschel taught his son, John the simplicity of things around us. John named seven moons of Saturn and four moons of Uranus. He made many contributions to the science of photography, and investigated colour blindness and the chemical power of ultraviolet rays and made important contributions to the photographic process. Phew!!

6) We should respect our environment 

Neil deGrasse Tyson repeatedly reminds us that Aliens might consider Earth a planet of Tardigrades and not Humans. An important lesson why we should protect Life on Earth.

7) Evolution is happening!! 

We happened due to 1000 of years of an evolutionary process that involved survival instincts, diet, Earth's physics, geology, biology and so many factors!! Even now we are changing and the Future holds a place for those who will change..ahem start being a Feminist

8) At all levels, life exists

Microscopic, subatomic and underground, life is in different shapes, sizes and colours. Monotony is against Natural Law and Diversity always wins!!

9) No Social Divisions

Carl Sagan, a pure soul did not allow social customs and traditions from recognizing talent and gave a young kid a book. That Young kid is none other than Neil deGrasse Tyson. Maybe the elders of India need to look at this point.

10) The whole world is full of life

Earth is a Living Planet, the air, the water, the land is full of life!! Let's protect It!!!
