• In 1955, He attended the University of Chicago, where he received a bachelor's degree
• In 1956, a master's degreein physics
• In 1960, earning his doctorate in astronomy and astrophysics.
• From 1962 to 1968, he worked at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
• Sagan lectured annually at Harvard University until 1968, when he moved to Cornell University.
• He became a full professor at Cornell in 1971 and directed the Laboratory for Planetary Studies there
• From 1972 to 1981 he was Associate Director of the Center for Radio Physics and Space Research at Cornell
• Sagan was a leader in the U.S. space program since its inception and worked as an adviser to NASA since the 1950s.
• a gold-anodized plaque, attached to the space probe Pioneer 10, launched in 1972
• Pioneer 11, also containing the plaque, was launched the following year.
• He continued to refine his designs and the most elaborate such message he helped to develop and assemble was the Voyager Golden Record that was sent out with the Voyager space probes in 1977
• Sagan taught at Cornell a course on critical thinking until his death on December 20, 1996

Scientific advocacy

• So persuasive was he that by 1982, he was able to get a petition advocating SETI published in the journal Science, signed by 70 scientists, including seven Nobel Prize winners.
• Sagan also helped Dr. Frank Drake write the Arecibo message, a radio message beamed into space from the Arecibo radio telescope on November 16, 1974, aimed at informing extraterrestrials about Earth.
• He co-founded the Planetary Society, the largest space-interest group in the world, with over 1,000,000 members in more than 149 countries, and was a member of the SETI Institute Board of Trustees.
• He also co-authored the book A Path Where No Man Thought: Nuclear Winter and the End of the Arms Race, a comprehensive examination of the phenomenon of nuclear winter.
• Sagan predicted on ABC's Nightline in 1991 that smoky oil fires in Kuwait set by Saddam Hussein's army during the first Gulf War would cause an ecological disaster and send black clouds into the atmosphere resulting in global cooling
• In his later years Sagan advocated the creation of an organized search for near Earth objects that would impact the Earth. ( Head, Tom (2006).

Social concerns

• Following his marriage to his third wife (novelist Ann Druyan) in June 1981, Sagan became more politically active—particularly in regard to the escalation of the nuclear arms race under President Ronald Reagan.
• When Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev declared a unilateral moratorium on the testing of nuclear weapons, which would begin on August 6, 1985 — the 40th anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima — the Reagan administration dismissed the dramatic move as nothing more than propaganda, and refused to follow suit.
• In response, American anti-nuclear and peace activists staged a series of protest actions at the Nevada Test Site, beginning on Easter Sunday of 1986 and continuing through 1987.
• Under the pseudonym "Mr. X", he wrote an essay concerning cannabis smoking in the 1971 book Marihuana Reconsidered, whose editor was Lester Grinspoon
• The publishing of this biography, Carl Sagan: A Life, in 1999, brought much media attention to the issue of the use and legalisation of marijuana.

Popularization of science

• He delivered the 1977/1978 Christmas Lectures for Young People at the Royal Institution. He hosted and, with Ann Druyan, co-wrote and co-produced the highly popular thirteen-part PBS television series Cosmos: A Personal Voyage modeled on Jacob Bronowski's The Ascent of Man.
• The series was first broadcast by the Public Broadcasting Service in 1980, winning an Emmy and a Peabody Award.
• Sagan also wrote the best-selling science fiction novel Contact, but did not live to see the book's 1997 motion picture adaptation, which starred Jodie Foster and won the 1998 Hugo Award.
• He wrote a sequel to Cosmos, Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space, which was selected as a notable book of 1995 by The New York Times.
• appeared on PBS' Charlie Rose program in January 1995
• In 2006, Ann Druyan edited Sagan's 1985 Glasgow Gifford Lectures in Natural Theology into a new book, The Varieties of Scientific Experience: A Personal View of the Search for God, in which he elaborates on his views of divinity in the natural world.

Personal life and beliefs

• In 1966, Sagan was asked to contribute an interview about the possibility of extraterrestrials to a proposed introduction to the film 2001: A Space Odyssey. Sagan responded by saying that he wanted editorial control and a percentage of the film's takings, which was rejected.
• In 1994, Apple Computer began developing the Power Macintosh 7100. They chose the internal code name "Carl Sagan", the in-joke being that the mid-range PowerMac 7100 would make Apple "billions and billions
• attributed to Pierre-Simon Marquis de Laplace (1749-1827)
• Sagan married three times: biologist Lynn Margulis, mother of Dorion Sagan and Jeremy Sagan, in 1957
• artist Linda Salzman, mother of Nick Sagan, in 1968
• 1981. His marriage to Druyan continued until his death in 1996

Sagan and UFOs

• Sagan had some interest in UFO reports from at least 1964, when he had several conversations on the subject with Jacques Vallee
• In 1966, Sagan was a member of the Ad Hoc Committee to Review Project Blue Book.
• The committee concluded that the U.S. Air Force's Project Blue Book had been lacking as a scientific study, and recommended a university-based project to give the UFO phenomenon closer scientific scrutiny. The Condon Committee (1966-1968), led by physicist Edward Condon, and their still-controversial final report, formally concluded that there was nothing anomalous about UFO reports.
• With physicist Thornton Page, Sagan edited the lectures and discussions given at the symposium; these were published in 1972 as UFO's
• In 1971, he considered blackballing Sagan from the prestigious Cosmos Club
• Sagan again claimed that there was no evidence that aliens have actually visited the Earth, either in the past or present (Sagan, 1996: 81-96, 99-104).

Death and legacy

• Sagan died of pneumonia at the age of 62, leaving behind a wife and five children on December 20, 1996, at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Washington. Sagan was a significant figure, and his supporters credit his importance to his popularization of the natural sciences, opposing both restraints on science and reactionary applications of science, defending democratic traditions, resisting nationalism, defending humanism, and arguing against geocentric and anthropocentric views.
• The 1997 movie Contact, based on Sagan's novel of the same name and finished after his death, ends with the dedication "For Carl."
• On November 9, 2001, on what would have been Sagan’s 67th birthday, the NASA Ames Research Center dedicated the site for the Carl Sagan Center for the Study of Life in the Cosmos.
• Sagan himself was the first recipient of the CSSP award in 1993
• Sagan's student Steve Squyres led the team that landed the Spirit Rover and Opportunity Rover successfully on Mars in 2004

In a poem

In the room of 5 floor,
the library is indoor.
Inthe library i found a place,
A book is about the space.
Methodist College is a place of Yau Ma Tei,
We study in school all day.
We make a report after we get accident in laboratory which near canteen,
And the tree is grow by bean.

↖↗★Mid-autumn Festival★↗↖

In mid-autumn festival, i went to Kowloon Park to play in the evening. I met my P.6 friend and than we played togerther with a foot ball. we ate moon-cakes when it is 9 o'clock. At this time, the moon was lighter then before. The moon was so shy and she hind of the cloud, but this was not a reason to sad. After eating moon-cakes, my friend toke jokes to me and we laughed.

i enjoyed that day, I hope next Mid-autumn Festival can come soon.

★My Hobby ★

I go to library once a week to borrow books. I like reading science book start at i looked a TV program which is about astronomy and element. Without science, I also like reading the book which is about computer, because my computer always broke and I want to repair and make the computer by myself!

On sport, I like playing badminton and swimming. Doing sport can make us to strong. Badminton and swimming are easier to learn. Learning easier always is my first point the learn it.

Why did, or why didn't you enjoy Sports Day?

I enjoyed Sport Day, because it was excited. The loud sound made me so enjoy. Before Form 1, I haven't really enjoy in Sports Day, because in Primary 4-6, I always doing prefect and the children didn't invest in the slogan. Then it will so boring.

I think YIU SHEH(堯社) is the best of the other. It is because YIU SHEHs' runners and cheer squad are reallyhard work. They wanted to win competition this year and their vigorous make us to prove!!!

And then we tried many time and i tired to try it. Then M.r Ching said that to use he ID for login. When last 4 mins, someone said that he found out how to login and he told everyone to login(someone still couldn't login). And M.r Ching said we can use the computer for 10 mis(use the recrss), and we can play it fastly.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Today after went church, i come back to home. When i cross a street, a boy was running to me. But he forgot zipped up the zip of purse, then some of money were throw in the street!! i help him to tack back some money to him. He thanks to me.

★★★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆★★★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆★★★★★★★

★The MOST important thing I learned ★

I learned how to organize the mind map, sound of letters and write the lists. The most improtant thing is learning how to speak the sound of letters. "Letters is the first we learn and speak, so we must learn well." I know what is letter E /i:/ and sound of I /i/ different, and some sound of letters(for example , sound of letter B, A, C, T and I).
Learning the sound of letters can make me learn the words and speak the essay easier.
