    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Part of the screenplay is based on an actual school essay by young Carl Sagan.
    • Quotes
      • Child Carl: Our Sun is also a star, not even the brightest nor the biggest... Just the closest! While it is important to us, it's hardly as unique as we'd like to think.
    • Crazy credits
      Closing credits are not rolling in the usual direction (from the lower part of the screen towards the upper), but in reverse. This achieves the effect of camera ascending, rather than descending.
