The seven wonder of our solar system are discussed: Enceladus' geysers, Rings of Saturn, Jupiter's Great Red Spot, the Asteroid Belt, Mars' Olympus Mons, the Surface of the Sun, and planet Earth.
From 2006 to 2010 Mars was invaded by by several new spacecraft from its nearest neighbor, Earth. These probes have revealed numerous unexpected features of the martian surface. Several have implications for life, past and present.
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are bits of the sun thrown into space. When directed in the direction of earth they are a grave threat to civilization. How the sun's magnetic fields generate CMEs, the earth magnetic field protects us from CMSs and how our civilization's dependence on magnetic fields keeps us at risk from CMEs is explained.
Scientists have taken a serious look at the possibility of time travel. Current scientific theories offer some likely prospects but engineering a working time machine, even if possible, remains a distant prospect.
From highly sophisticated and sensitive space telescopes that look from afar to space probes that rendezvous with celestial objects to return samples, this program looks a few of the more dramatic space explorations missions in recent years.
This educational show explores many scientific questions and topics about the universe (Big Bang, the Sun, the planets, black holes, other galaxies, astrobiology etc.) through latest CGI, data and interviews with scientists.
