Today on Far Future Horizons we present the second episode of the acclaimed PBS series “Mysteries of Deep Space”.
In the second instalment of the series we will be taking a voyage to the edge of space, where we will encounter stars coming to life and dying violent deaths.
To some there is no vision more reassuring: the cycles of the sun and the moon, the heavens ceaselessly turning. The night sky is unchanging and eternal -- Or so it seems.
Today on Far Future Horizons we present the debut of a new documentary series titled "Mysteries of Deep Space" with episode one: "To the Edge of Time".
"Today, astronomers have opened a stunning new window on the universe. As we peer ever deeper into space, we travel farther back in time".
The science of astronomy is being transformed by a new age of technological advances. On mountaintops around the world, scientists are opening ever larger telescopes, capturing light from ever more distant reaches of the universe. That light may have travelled millions, even billions, of years to reach us. By the time it does, it offers a window into the distant past.
