Though it's been quietly in the works since 2011, Fox has officially confirmed that Carl Sagan's monumental 1970 sci-ed miniseries Cosmos: A Personal Voyage will be getting an updated sequel next year, which will consist of 13 episodes produced by Family Guy's Seth MacFarlane and hosted by one of the Internet's most celebrated astrophysicists, Neil Degrasse Tyson. Fox is hoping the show will have as much as of cultural impact as Carl Sagan's original series, which still remains one of the most watched PBS series in the world to this day.
