Agreed. J. Bronowski comes to mind too.
Symphony of Science - the Poetry of Reality
Here are the lyrics for you sing-alongers out there:
Lyrics:
[Michael Shermer]
Science is the best tool ever devised
For understanding how the world works
[Jacob Bronowski]
Science is a very human form of knowledge
We are always at the brink of the known
[Carl Sagan]
Science is a collaborative enterprise
Spanning the generations
We remember those who prepared the way
Seeing for them also
[Neil deGrasse Tyson]
If you're scientifically literate,
The world looks very different to you
And that understanding empowers you
Refrain:
[Richard Dawkins]
There's real poetry in the real world
Science is the poetry of reality
[Sagan]
We can do science
And with it, we can improve our lives
[Jill Tarter]
The story of humans is the story of ideas
That shine light into dark corners
[Lawrence Krauss]
Scientists love mysteries
They love not knowing
[Richard Feynman]
I don't feel frightened by not knowing things
I think it's much more interesting
[Brian Greene]
There's a larger universal reality
of which we are all apart
[Stephen Hawking]
The further we probe into the universe
The more remarkable are the discoveries we make
[Carolyn Porco]
The quest for the truth, in and of itself,
Is a story that's filled with insights
(Refrain)
[Greene]
From our lonely point in the cosmos
We have through the power of thought
Been able to peer back to a brief moment
After the beginning of the universe
[PZ Myers]
I think that science changes the way your mind works
To think a little more deeply about things
[Dawkins]
Science replaces private predjudice
With publicly verifiable evidence
(Refrain)
Bronowski: This Is What Men Do When They Believe They Have A
Contemporary society just doesn't have intellectuals of this caliber, and Bronowski was a backbencher during his own time.
I blame the University system: "too big to police" leads to rampant cheating.

Thanks =) and I'll check that video out when I am back home (Wednesday night) and have a better computer.
The music, I though people mentioned in the comments. Something from Battlestar Galactica I think. You could also ask NetRunner (my hubby), I am pretty sure he knows what it is , or where it is from =)
In reply to this comment by Kilgore661:
I love "Saturn V rocket launch". Have you seen the ultra-slow motion shot of a match being lit in Bronowski's Ascent of Man?
Please, please, tell me: what is the music in the Saturn vid?
