Universe: The Cosmology Quest

Today on Far Future Horizons we present a controversial documentary titled “Universe: The Cosmology Quest” which could have been aptly re-titled “The Big Bang Never Happened”.

Most of us are intrigued by questions to do with the origin and evolution of the universe. Where do we come from? Where are we going?

Carl Sagan's Cosmos - The Edge of Forever

Today on Far Future Horizons we present the tenth episode of Carl Sagan’s highly acclaimed PBS documentary series – Cosmos: The Edge of Forever.

Origins – Back to the Beginning

Today on Far Future Horizons we present the fourth and final episode of the highly acclaimed PBS documentary series "Origins" hosted and presented by astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson.

The final installment of this series, “Back to the Beginning” explores how the colossal, mind-boggling forces of the early universe made it possible for habitable worlds to emerge.

The clues begin with a race among scientists to capture lingering echoes of the big bang’s ferocious energy in a microwave “whisper” from deep space. 


The race pits underdog astronomer Tony Readhead and his improvised detector in the high Andes against NASA scientists and their state-of-the-art satellite probe. Tyson shares his excitement with viewers as computer animation of the big bang’s echo emerges on the screen. It’s as close as we can get to a “photograph” of the primordial universe.

Stephen Hawking: Into the Universe – The Story of Everything

Today on Far Future Horizons we present the third and final episode of Stephen Hawking’s “Into the Universe”. In this installment we delve into the mind of the world’s most famous living scientist and reveal the splendor and majesty of the universe as never seen before. We will take an odyssey across eons of time and see how the universe began, how it creates stars, black holes and life and voyage to the end of time itself and witness the closing stages of cosmic history.

Hyperspace – Star Stuff

Today on Far Future Horizons we present the first episode of the highly acclaimed, six part BBC documentary series, Space (Hyperspace in the United States) hosted and narrated by veteran actor Sam Neill.


"Let's go on a journey a journey like no other, a journey out into the depth of the Universe. Look up at the night sky, what do you see? The Planets, the Stars, a million points of light. You are looking at your universe in all its glory". ~ Sam Neill

God and the Universe

Today on Far Future Horizons we present another exciting episode of acclaimed Documentary series The Universe which explores perhaps the ultimate existential question – Did God Create the Universe?

History of the World in Two Hours

Today on Far Future Horizons we voyage back in time some 13.7 Billion Years to tell the epic story of our Universe, World and humankind.

From the Big Bang that forged our Cosmos till the present day in just two hours. Well in actual fact, we are going to do it in just one hour, twenty seven minutes and fifty seven seconds. Approximately a half hour of commercials were removed to enhance your viewing pleasure.

This is a prime example of Big History, which examines history in terms of long time frames using a multidisciplinary approach. It combines numerous disciplines from science and the humanities and explores human existence in the context of this bigger picture. I invite my readers to check the Big History Project's website. In Fact you can take a short course on Big History via the Open Culture website. 

From Big Bang to Humankind

History Of The World In Two Hours is the story of humankind from the very beginning of time from the birth of the Universe and Earth to the dawn of life, from the fall of the dinosaurs to the rise of man, from the Stone Age to Silicon Age. Each chapter in the story will reveal a surprising connection to our world today.
