Journey to the Edge of the Universe
National Geographic presents the first accurate non-stop voyage from Earth to the edge of the Universe using a single, unbroken shot through the use of spectacular CGI (Computer-Generated Imagery) technology.
Building on images taken from the Hubble telescope, Journey to the Edge of the Universe explores the science and history behind the distant celestial bodies in the solar system.
This spectacular, epic voyage across the cosmos, takes us from the Earth, past the Moon and our neighboring planets, out of our Solar System, to the nearest stars, nebulae and galaxies and beyond - right to the edge of the Universe itself.
When you finish this video, you will walk away from it with an awareness that you never had before, of the unseen astronomically massive universe that we float around on like a spec of dust in the ocean.
This video takes you on a journey through the universe as if you are watching a Sci Fi adventure. Yet you constantly have to remind yourself that what you're seeing is really out there.
I never seen such a wonderful documentary.
One of the best space documentary ever made.
The commentary in this documentary is amazing. Lovely doc
Realy watch this documentry
Just as amazing as this film is, the scope, depth and sincerity of the comments are just as amazing.
good video, although filled with assumptions and theories presented as fact (with a mix true science (testable/repeatable/viewable) ). In some parts is comical but overall an interesting perception of how it all began.
Very top class documentary or movie clip,had me glued to the seat.
Beautiful, just beautiful. Not enough words can describe the miracle that life is. From the infinite small to the infinite big. There is a whole universe in every cell of our body, just like we are part of a bigger cell, in a bigger entity. Suddenly you realize how all this mundane life we lead and all the wars and hate on our planet seem so useless and infinitely small in the bigger picture.
does anyone know where is can find the soundtrack that appears when the white dwarf is shown, i love that piece
Awesome. The mystery of creation, life, death and rebirth.
I found this after smoking weed one night by accident and it was one of the most amazing things I'd ever seen. It never lost my attention whatsoever. I've watched it five times in total (sober), I love it and show as many friends as I can.
You guys should watch "Through the Wormhole","The Universe" and Look up documentaries done by Stephen Hawking
This is probably the greatest documentaries I;ve ever seen though I can't watch it unless it's Sean Pertwee's narration
I love this documentary. Not for the science but the sense of adventure by being guided by Sean Pertwee (I preferred him to Awec Bawdwin) through a visually stunning universe. Anyone know of other docs like this one since now I pretty much know it off by heart?
A great documentary. Some minor grammer inconsistances, but definately one of the best around!
if this, if that. at least science makes more sense then what your bible says...which was written by man. you have no concept of big bang THEORY. there is no bible theory because you go by what your fellow man has written hundreds of years ago and take it as fact because like most zombie m*rons can't/don't think for your self. your asking dumb questions.... "Consider this when there is a huracane, or tornado, do these events make a car, or airplane from that event?" making an analogy with 6th grade concept doesn't help your point. If you want to make a point find someone who has at least average to above average intelligence then have them write it. Problem with you m*rons is you talk with your emotional intellect which you know is the dumb part of your brain....and if you don't know go find a book.
If the univere was created by a big bang. Then how do you explain planatery bodies going in oposite direction from one another, If the universe started with an explosion, one would expect that all matter-energy should have been propelled radially from the explosion center—consistent with the principle of angular momentum.But this does not occur! The Bible plainly teaches that the entire universe, including the earth with its various “kinds” of biological organisms, came into being during the six, literal days of the creation week (Genesis 1; Exodus 20:11). The big bang theory postulates eons of time. If the earth is actually millions of years old, you would have mountains of dinosour bones everwhere, you would have far more salt in the oceans. There is so much evidence to prove that we human beings did not evolve from rocks. Let alone from a big bang. Consider this when there is a huracane, or tornado, do these events make a car, or airplane from that event? Its sad how so many americans do not use there mind to think, research, useing critical thinking! I would sugest, reading the: The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America.
Great Doc . i have seen it many times, but this is the first time i have heard the American naration.....OMG ..his he a zombie!!!!..flat no emotion , listen the the english naration....it will make your hairs stand on end. Sean Pertwee he brings this doc to life
Just spoke to Rick Scatatorium. He disagrees with this vid. He confided in me that the universe is 4,000 years old and the sun revolves around the Earth. That liberal Romney told me that the universe is 6,000 years old, and that the Earth revolves around him. Who should I believe?
hey guys just wanting to say something about the universe being infinite well technically no its not infinite but it is expanding, if im not mistaken, faster than the speed of light and the fastest we can go is 99% of the speed of light in theory, therefore we would never be able to reach the edge nothing can so technically wouldnt that be inifinite?
sorry if this post makes no sense im very stoned:)
Type something lamenting mankind here, something half-way pretentious trying to sound intelligent yet at the same time expressing personal hopes others will read it or even care.... Oh yeah and wasn’t Baldwin cheesy?!
Pretty good but mis-named. I think of the edge of the universe as the outer rim of the sphere or disc, not the Big Bang point. Nevertheless, a very good prime for children who have thoughts of what is out there and why.
It still doesn't answer the question of where the universe is expanding or where it is going, or in other words, what is outside of where the expansion point is now. Of course, nobody now can definitively that any better than what was before the Big Bang. The show was still worth watching.
Does anybody know why the Big Bang is not a sphere instead of a relatively flat disc as most science seems to conclude. Seems to me, it should be a sphere. Science says the universe is approximately 13.7 million years old. I thought that was based on looking back in time and through pulsars and other techniques recognizing how far everthing has traveled. However, if the universe is expanding as some science thinks, how do you really know the diameter of the universe? I look forward to someone enlightening me.
Also, if pi is an ever increaing smaller number by virtue of its endless digits, does that mean the circle or sphere is also an ever increasingly smaller area or volume. And, if so, does that mean the expansion of the universe is also overcoming this conumdrum over the vast period of time?
The speed of light being exact has also boggled my mind. I guess yo just accept it is what it is, that is, very interesting. Nevertheless, if you can't go any faster then the speed of light, the laws of science didn't intend for us to go very far. Doh.
GOLD
I may be biased but I preferred this documentary with the British narration that was used when it screened in the U.K. Still an excellent programme (show) though.
This should be titled "Journey to the Edge of Time".
Didn't they really make a journey to the "center" of the universe???
