Last night marked the return of Cosmos, the science program that was originally undertaken by astronomer and Pulitzer Prize-winning author Carl Sagan. More than three decades after the debut of the first version Cosmos has returned with new host Neil deGrasse Tyson.

The joy of discovery and a slightly better understanding of the inner workings of the universe leads us to today's Coffee Break. What science songs do you want to hear for the 9:30 Coffee Break?

Don't miss out on the chance to have Blitzen Trapper perform in your office. The band will join Jill and Steve with coffee and treats from JJ's Coffee and Wine Bistro on March 28th. Enter by letting us know why you deserve a Coffee Break: CoffeeBreak@TheCurrent.org
