I'm watching Carl Sagan's Cosmos right now. Sagan is a hero of mine. I was about eighteen when I discovered his work, and immediately fell in love with it. I actually cried when I learned he had passed away when I was nine.

I actually met Carl Sagan, once. It was a very long time ago. I was working in a Boston Hospital, as an Ultrasound Tech.

Oh, wow. I would've justI actually met Carl Sagan, once. It was a very long time ago. I was working in a Boston Hospital, as an Ultrasound Tech. I forget which marriage he was on at that time ~~ yes, he was married a few times..
He was in Boston for a Conference. Cosmos was already aired and was a huge success, and he was famous.
Anyway, Carl Sagan's current wife was pregnant and for whatever reason, needed an ultrasound.
There was a huge hubbub in the department about him. We were sure the Supervisor would do the scan.. In fact, the other monographers, all women with many more years experience than me, were chastising the supervisor (male) about how he would automatically take over. Lo and Behold, it was my turn to do a patient.
Yup, guess who it was!!! I was scared blank-less. I gave the requisition to the Super, who automatically refused to take it... I was shocked.. the other techs were appalled...
But the Supervisor stuck to his guns.. I think he wanted to infuse some confidence in me.
Can you imagine ME, me, scanning a pregnant woman with her husband, Carl Sagan, behind me.. ME trying to explain things!!! OMG!!! It was an honor but torture at the same time.. I mean, what if I made a mistake, what if I stumbled and stammered??
I was almost shaking..
He was so nice.. acting as if he did not understand what was going on, and indulging me to do my 'thing'...
Still shaking my head about the entire episode.. was it a dream? did it really occur?
Me explaining Ultrasound to an astronomer, and that person being Carl Sagan !!!!
