Carl Sagan Returns for an Encore
Remember that awesome Carl Sagan autotuned music video from a few weeks ago? Everyone’s favorite astronomer is back with his second chart-breaking single, and this time, he has a little help from his pals Richard Feynman, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Bill Nye — indeed, the Science Guy. I don’t think it’s quite as catchy as his previous song, but I will say that no matter how you feel about autotuning, the use of it promote Carl Sagan and his posse is 100% acceptable, correct?
