I Think it was blue, I have to look at the episode, Some of the stuff that was going on was taped but edited and not aired, all those kids in the episode were my childhood buddies. I laugh when I see it because you can hear our Brooklyn accents. My husband asks me " Why doesnt Carl Sagan have that Brooklyn Accent"
It was great because after the classroom lesson, our school had Carl Sagan on the stage in the auditorium teaching us about the universe, each grade had a set time for the space lesson. Imagine that, I had an actual lecture from Carl Sagan and I probably paid no attention, I probably wanted to go home and play with my friends. As Jackie Gleason once said in a honeymooners episode "youth is wasted on the young", that is true. If that was now I would have been taking notes, paying complete attention and have been inspired. But again, at 10 you are interested in such silly things.
