-'''Carl Sagan''' (November 9, 1934 - December 20, 1996) was an American astronomer and writer. He worked along with the American space program and popularized astronomy with the general public thru a series of non-fiction books and his TV series ''"Cosmos: A Personal Voyage" (1980)''. In 1977, he was also the initiator of the Voyager Golden Record, a special record sent into outer space featuring sounds and music that would give potential extraterrestrials an idea of life on Earth. Among the musical segments on this record are works by [[Johann Sebastian Bach]] (one piece performed by [[Glenn Gould]]), [[Ludwig van Beethoven]], [[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]], [[Igor Stravinsky]] (the final movement of ''[[The Rite of Spring]]''), [[Louis Armstrong]], Blind Willie Johnson, [[Chuck Berry]] and various pieces of world music, including [[Valya Balkanska]].
