Carl Sagan

Carl Sagan fue profesor de la cátedra David Duncan de Astronomía y Ciencias Espaciales y director del Laboratorio de Estudios Planetarios de la Universidad de Cornell; Distinguished Visiting Scientist del Laboratorio de Propulsióna Chorro (JPL) del Instituto de Tecnología de California y cofundador y presidente de la Sociedad Planetaria, la más importante del mundo dedicada a temas del espacio.

El doctor Sagan recibió a lo largo de su vida numerosas distinciones (Premio Pulitzer, medallas de la NASA, el Premio Apollo, el Premio Masursky y la medalla del Bienestar Público de la Academia Nacional de Ciencias de Estados Unidos) y un asteroide, el 2709, fue bautizado con su nombre. Al concederle su premio más importante, la Academia Nacional de Ciencias constató "Nadie ha conseguido nunca transmitir las maravillas ni el carácter estimulante y jubiloso de la ciencia con tanta amplitud como lo ha hecho Carl Sagan... Su habilidad para cautivar la imaginación de millones de personas y para explicar conceptos complejos en términos comprensibles constituye un magnífico logro". Carl Sagan murió en diciembre de 1996. Entre las obras publicadas por Editorial Planeta figuran: Cosmos, El cometa, Sombras de antepasados olvidados, Un punto azul pálido, y El mundo y sus demonios.

Carl Sagan was a professor of the David Duncan Chair in Astronomy and Space Sciences and the director of the Laboratory for Planetary Studies at Cornell University; Distinguished Visiting Scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) at the California Institute of Technology, and co-founder and president of the Planetary Society, the world's largest space interest group.

Throughout his life, Dr. Sagan received numerous accolades (Pulitzer Prize, NASA medals, the Apollo Award, the Masursky Award, and the Public Welfare Medal of the National Academy of Sciences) and an asteroid, 2709, was named after him. Upon awarding him its highest honor, the National Academy of Sciences stated: "Nobody has ever succeeded in conveying the wonders or the stimulating and joyful character of science to such a wide audience as Carl Sagan... His ability to capture the imagination of millions of people and to explain complex concepts in understandable terms is a magnificent achievement". Carl Sagan died in December 1996. Among the works published by Editorial Planeta are: Cosmos, Comet, Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors, Pale Blue Dot, and The Demon-Haunted World.
