If they are sticking to the original, there should be about 13 episodes. I'm not sure they have ever mentioned a number of episodes for Tyson's Cosmos. Did you notice in the opening credits "Executive Producer: Ann Druyan"? Ann is Sagan's wife/widow. Pretty sure she worked on the first generation Cosmos. Is that what we call it now Cosmos First Generation, Cosmos Second Generation? lol

According the this Salt Lake Tribune story http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/entertainment2/57608648-223/cosmos-fox-science-... it has 13 episodes. Seth McFarland, the creator of Family Guy is also a producer which explains the cartoons about Giordano Bruno. My only objection to the series is the placement of ads, or should I say the timing. They were always interupting an important thought line with those ads instead of waiting for a transition between thoughts. It was particularly irritating when the ads at one point were only 5 minutes apart. ________________________________ From: Joe Bauman <josephmbauman@yahoo.com> To: Utah Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Monday, March 10, 2014 12:35 AM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Cosmos 1st and 2nd gen!

Agreed. Whoever was placing ad breaks seemed to not care a whit about what it did to the segment they were breaking up to hawk Samsung. Otherwise, I thought it was a very promising first episode and I'm looking forward to the next dozen segments. This is definitely a DVD set I'll be buying when it's released.

The April edition of S&T has an article about the new Cosmos. It has a very brief summary of each of the 13 episodes in it. The April Astronomy magazine also has an article about it, but I haven't read it yet.

Thanks Dale. I'll see if I kept a copy on my home computer, I'm pretty sure I did, and probably have the saved "sent" message to Gary Seronik, as well. IIRC, there were some quotes from Charlie Green and other friends of Mikes that didn't make the cut, but Gary did a good job of editing to keep most of the relevant information. I sent in dozens of Steve Dodd's "in progress" shots, none of which made the final cut, as well as at least 40 shots of my own, of which only 4 got printed. But I am proud to say that I have a full-page photo credit in the issue, and this was the first time they ran my head shot. Hope that didn't scare anyone. Now if Mike will just get a website up and running, I won't have to keep forwarding his fan mail. He gets a fair amount from the article! If the SLAS historian is reading this, I believe this makes 7 stories in S&T by SLAS members, to date. 3 by the late Bill Kelley and 4 by myself. Did I forget someone? Brent, didn't you have an article in there? On Mon, Mar 10, 2014 at 9:18 AM, Dale Hooper <Dale.Hooper@sdl.usu.edu>wrote:

I did have a short article published, but I believe it was in Astronomy rather than Sky and Tel. I was asked to submit an article to Sky and Tel about Digistar, but circumstances didn't permit me to complete the submission. That was totally my fault, not any one else's doing.

Thanks Dale. I'll see if I kept a copy on my home computer, I'm pretty sure I did, and probably have the saved "sent" message to Gary Seronik, as well. IIRC, there were some quotes from Charlie Green and other friends of Mikes that didn't make the cut, but Gary did a good job of editing to keep most of the relevant information. I sent in dozens of Steve Dodd's "in progress" shots, none of which made the final cut, as well as at least 40 shots of my own, of which only 4 got printed. But I am proud to say that I have a full-page photo credit in the issue, and this was the first time they ran my head shot. Hope that didn't scare anyone.
Now if Mike will just get a website up and running, I won't have to keep forwarding his fan mail. He gets a fair amount from the article!
If the SLAS historian is reading this, I believe this makes 7 stories in S&T by SLAS members, to date. 3 by the late Bill Kelley and 4 by myself. Did I forget someone? Brent, didn't you have an article in there?

You are certainly correct Chuck - I really enjoyed your article about Mike's 70 inch scope. BTW - is there any possibility of reading the "unchopped" version?

They've been in the club history document for years now, Joe. I still have copies of the articles you did about me for the Desnews years ago. Those were just as exciting for me as the S&T articles. Thanks again! On Mon, Mar 10, 2014 at 9:11 PM, Joe Bauman <josephmbauman@yahoo.com> wrote:

Many thanks, Patrick!
I very much enjoyed the first episode. It took a while for me to figure out what was unsettling about it though - for a show focused on reality and truth, 98% of the show was CGI. I'm not sure there was a single photo or video of celestial objects that was not computer generated. Certainly we have many amazing real-life images of objects they could have used. They didn't even use real photos of the sun, moon, or earth. And some of the depictions (Saturn's rings, the asteroid belt, etc.) were pretty far-fetched, thus supporting misunderstandings many have about such objects. Of course these are quite minor things, but I found myself increasingly uncomfortable with its artificial depictions, especially of things that are directly observable.

According the this Salt Lake Tribune story
http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/entertainment2/57608648-223/cosmos-fox-science-...
it has 13 episodes. Seth McFarland, the creator of Family Guy is also a producer which explains the cartoons about Giordano Bruno.
My only objection to the series is the placement of ads, or should I say the timing. They were always interupting an important thought line with those ads instead of waiting for a transition between thoughts. It was particularly irritating when the ads at one point were only 5 minutes apart.

If they are sticking to the original, there should be about 13 episodes. I'm not sure they have ever mentioned a number of episodes for Tyson's Cosmos. Did you notice in the opening credits "Executive Producer: Ann Druyan"? Ann is Sagan's wife/widow. Pretty sure she worked on the first generation Cosmos. Is that what we call it now Cosmos First Generation, Cosmos Second Generation? lol _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy
