Hello,

today I was watching "cosmos" series and I made a little research on Carl Sagan, read about many achievements and according to Wikipedia I read that he has written more than 600 scientific papers. So I tried to find his work on

http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html

and

http://arxiv.org/

and I found just one paper that was submitted after his death...
the paper is the following:
https://arxiv.org/pdf/astro-ph/9707039v1.pdfAlso I searched for an academic profile in any university but could not find anything...

So apart from reading about non-specific achievements of how he helped NASA can someone help me with this? I would like to read some of his papers, maybe his PhD or any scientific publication.
