Have you read (not watched) Contact?I watched the original COSMOS with Carl Sagan on PBS in early early 80s and really enjoyed it.
But it is worth noting an assertion that Sagan makes. "It is Cosmos, not chaos". The word cosmos means a harmonious order.
It amazes me that noted physicists like Steven Hawkins will author books like "The Grand Design" and will not connect the dots that a design points to a designer.
It is not because it is incompatible with science or the evidence. It is because it does not fit their philosophical beliefs.
