Bill Nye is retiring his children's show in a bid to become more like his late teacher, astronomer Carl Sagan. Sagan dreamed of launching a spacecraft that could revolutionize interplanetary exploration. Bill sets out to fulfill Sagan's mission, but is sidelined when he is challenged by opponents of evolution and climate change to uphold the scientific consensus.
