WEBVTT

00:00:10.059 --> 00:00:13.000
We are all connected;

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:15.069
To each other, biologically

00:00:15.070 --> 00:00:18.060
To the earth, chemically

00:00:18.060 --> 00:00:20.080
To the rest of the universe atomically

00:00:20.080 --> 00:00:23.050
I think nature's imagination

00:00:23.050 --> 00:00:26.000
Is so much greater than man's

00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:29.050
She's never going to let us relax

00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:33.039
We live in an in-between universe

00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:35.079
Where things change all right

00:00:35.080 --> 00:00:38.020
But according to patterns, rules,

00:00:38.020 --> 00:00:40.089
Or as we call them, laws of nature

00:00:40.090 --> 00:00:44.000
I'm this guy standing on a planet

00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:47.000
Really I'm just a speck

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:51.070
Compared with a star, the planet is just another speck

00:00:51.070 --> 00:00:54.000
To think about all of this

00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:56.050
To think about the vast emptiness of space

00:00:56.050 --> 00:00:59.000
There's billions and billions of stars

00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:01.070
Billions and billions of specks

00:01:01.070 --> 00:01:07.000
The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:12.000
But the way those atoms are put together

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:14.050
The cosmos is also within us

00:01:14.050 --> 00:01:17.000
Wir sind aus Sternenstoff gemacht.

00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:22.009
We are a way for the cosmos to know itself

00:01:22.010 --> 00:01:24.079
Across the sea of space

00:01:24.080 --> 00:01:27.009
The stars are other suns

00:01:27.010 --> 00:01:30.020
We have traveled this way before

00:01:30.020 --> 00:01:32.059
And there is much to be learned

00:01:32.080 --> 00:01:34.070
We are all connected;

00:01:34.070 --> 00:01:37.040
To each other, biologically

00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:40.020
To the earth, chemically

00:01:40.020 --> 00:01:42.029
To the rest of the universe atomically

00:01:42.030 --> 00:01:44.079
I find it elevating and exhilarating

00:01:44.080 --> 00:01:47.040
To discover that we live in a universe

00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:50.020
Which permits the evolution of molecular machines

00:01:50.020 --> 00:01:53.050
As intricate and subtle as we

00:02:02.070 --> 00:02:06.040
I know that the molecules in my body are traceable

00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:08.009
To phenomena in the cosmos

00:02:08.010 --> 00:02:11.000
That makes me want to grab people in the street

00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:13.000
And say, have you heard this??

00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:18.000
The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:22.050
But the way those atoms are put together

00:02:23.050 --> 00:02:25.080
The cosmos is also within us

00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:28.050
We're made of star stuff

00:02:28.050 --> 00:02:34.000
We are a way for the cosmos to know itself

00:02:44.020 --> 00:02:46.050
There's this tremendous mess

00:02:46.050 --> 00:02:48.050
Of waves all over in space

00:02:49.030 --> 00:02:51.080
Which is the light bouncing around the room

00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:54.000
And going from one thing to the other

00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:59.000
And it's all really there

00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.080
But you gotta stop and think about it

00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:04.030
About the complexity to really get the pleasure

00:03:04.030 --> 00:03:10.009
And it's all really there

00:03:10.010 --> 00:03:14.050
The inconceivable nature of nature

00:03:14.050 --> 00:03:17.000
To think about all of this

00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.050
To think about the vast emptiness of space

00:03:19.050 --> 00:03:22.000
There's billions and billions of stars

00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:24.050
Billions and billions of specks

00:03:24.050 --> 00:03:29.050
The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it

00:03:29.050 --> 00:03:33.000
But the way those atoms are put together

00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:37.050
The cosmos is also within us

00:03:37.050 --> 00:03:40.000
We're made of star stuff

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:45.000
We are a way for the cosmos to know itself

00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:47.069
Across the sea of space

00:03:47.070 --> 00:03:49.069
The stars are other suns

00:03:49.070 --> 00:03:53.000
We have traveled this way before

00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:56.000
And there is much to be learned
