With breath-taking sceneries in India, Iguazu Falls and a Northern lights display that even has Brian Cox forget about science for a second, this plush HD visual and artistic content is like the theme of the show: out of this world! When you couple this with charismatic Cox and well-researched science, script and directing, the result is the resurgence of the curiosity and wonder in all of us.
The current info, speculations, questions and relevant points of references make it enjoyable and accessible while containing enough science and finer findings to enhance the knowledge of an audience more versed in the subject. The essence however is to bring it back to the essentials, the proper perspectives and to elucidate a few mysteries whiles still creating others. A must see for anyone who ever looked up at the sky.
Don't we all wish we were at that Tokyo Atacama Observatory (TAO) in the Chilean desert. Cox even tells an anecdotal joke from a security pamphlet: "If you see stars, call a medic!"
I am now love sick, star-struck with science, physics and astronomy and this first part of a promising series "had me at hello"...
