How is Carl Sagan regarded among professional astronomers?

Prof. Carl Sagan at Cornell University is very highly regarded, and by some of us beloved, for his unbounded enthusiasm, his wit, and his technical competence. He is one of the world authorities on extra terrestrial life, its prospects, and searches for environments that may be harboring it.
