Carl Sagan 

One of the greatest popularizers of science to have walked the Earth.

Carl Sagan achieved worldwide fame for his thirteen-episode series 'Cosmos: A Personal Voyage'.
His research was what brought about the theory of a nuclear winter as the result of nuclear warfare.

Carl Sagan criticized society and advocated skeptical thought. He had strong, yet calm, power in his voice, and with it, the power to pull out a feeling in one's body, a feeling of longing. A yearning to learn, and a desire to venture outside our small planet.

Carl Sagan died in 1996 of pneumonia, but he lives on in any one who has ever listened to him and taken heed of his words.
-What do you think of Carl Sagan?
-He's brilliant.

Saganomics 

(noun) A pun on Reaganomics, this term refers to any would-be economic policy of preeminent scientist-philosopher Carl Sagan. Although not a politician himself, Dr. Sagan's political leanings were informed by scientific knowledge and were extremely liberal, progressive, and compassionate.

Examples of Saganomic policies include, but are not limited to:

1) Nuclear disarmament
2) Legalization of cannabis
3) Environmental conservation
4) Understanding the cosmos
Person 1: I am baffled that we pour so much money into the machinery of war while NASA's budget is always being cut. I believe our survival as a species depends on how well we understand the cosmos.

Person 2: Stay away from me with your Saganomics!

Saganist 

One who participates in the school of thought known as Saganism.

One who maintains an awestruck perspective of the vast cosmos we inhabit so minutely and the wonder of billions of years of evolution that brought us to this moment.
One who finds a source of complete spiritual satisfaction in the natural laws of the universe and the achievements of mankind's scientific practice thus far.

Emphasis is placed upon the duty of care for our planet, the need for ambitious space exploration programs, the folly of religion, nationalism and war, but also the need for compassion in the face of small-mindedness and zealotry.
The world would be an incredible place if all human beings were Saganists.
