Today on Far Future Horizons we present a fabulous documentary produced by Britain’s Open University
concerning the natural satellites of our solar system. Join us as we take an
exciting voyage to some of the most exotic moons in our solar system; each a
unique and beautiful world in its own right.
How did the
solar system form? Are we alone in the Universe? What are alien atmospheres
made of? These questions can be answered by studying the solar system’s vast
family of satellites.
This collection
of videos looks at five of the most intriguing worlds that we’ve managed to
visit over the last fifty years, including The Moon, Europa, Phobos, Deimos and
Titan.
From the first
human footsteps on another world to the most distant spacecraft landing in history,
our neighbourhood of moons has always played a central role in our exploration
of the planets.
