For thousands of years mankind has turned to religion and the myth of the answers to these enduring questions. But in this series, Brian has a different set of answers – answers of science.
Stardust. At the second stop in his exploration of the wonders of the universe, Professor Brian Cox goes in search of the essence of humanity to respond to the most important questions of all: what are we? Where did we come from? This film is the story of matter – the material they’re made of.
The Fall. In the third episode, Professor Brian Cox in the history of the force that shapes the entire universe – gravity. Gravity seems so familiar, and yet it is a strange and striking forces in the universe.

so does santa claus. Wake the fuck up, theres nothing beautiful about being a pedophile or a suicide bomber.
Without a conscious observer there would be no-one there to witness the supernova.All the majesty and beauty we associate with the nova doesn’t exist in the thing itself, but only in the mind of the human being witnessing it.Without consciousness the nova would be a meaningless event witnessed by no-one – no more beautiful or amazing than a rock.Anyways, ultimately there’s no right or wrong answer to this because it’s a question of meaning, which is entirely subjective.
@ DrunkenPoetic “Biggest wonder the Universe has ever created is consciousness.Anyone of us is more amazing that any fucking supernova”Human arrogance at it’s best, though while I can actually empathize with your first comment, the second one is as short-sighted as it gets… if it weren’t for those ‘f’king’ supernovae, where do you think we would be?
Or making hate comments on youtube!
mute this video n play ‘ELECTRIC ROMEO’ its so epic
This series is awesome! And once more specially when I watched this I can only say : What does really matter, what about every day’s struggle and fears and worries, fights and hate and wars and stuff? We are all less than nothing compared to the universe and even if Earth would end in big blast- who seriously out there would give a damn. One tiny bright spot in trillions – that’s how I feel and consider my “Important” person. I wanna explore the Universe when I die that would be it…
This guy is my hero. I imagine him in front of the BBC director saying:”I have an idea for a new documentary about the universe, and for explainde concept of entropy I should go to Namibia, to explain gravity I should go to Victoria Falls and take a zero gravity flight, go to Egypt, etc”No seriously, I love the serie and I would like another season
