This is Carl Sagan we're talking about, though. He can make reading a book sound epic.

I am honestly surprised anyone thought Earth. Even the shots at the start of the video look like sea creatures you'd get from Pandora.

THERE'S my people!
It's my opinion that the other hooligans, led on by iron jones, also thought Pandora. You sillies the point is, who on this forum couldn't think that?

Also, any real Sagan fans in the house would know that in the 80s, it was conventional to call any body large enough to be spherical which does not emit its own light (apart from auroras and civilization on earth, smartasses) a planet, even if it was also a moon. See here at 3:18:







WHEN the **** did we ever have 10 planets? (Not exactly meant to defend my calling the moon a planet, but just to show how loosely the word was and still can be used in certain contexts)
