History Channel The Universe Season 1 (2006) Part 13 Search For ET

Bring THE UNIVERSE down to Earth.
At no other time since humans first contemplated the stars has our understanding of the unimaginably vast Cosmos grown so rapidly. We know immeasurably more about what's beyond our atmosphere than we did a century ago. We know far, far more than we knew even a decade ago. In this epic documentary series, THE UNIVERSE SEASON 1 takes you to the leading edge of our ever-expanding astronomical knowledge. A virtual collision of astronomy and history, these 12 dense, enlightening hours (14 episodes total) of unprecedented programming give unique insight - through recreations and animations - on the great “Eureka!” moments of celestial understanding and into the very latest celestial discoveries. And with these strikingly realistic computer reconstructions, you'll travel to the outer edges of the Known. Tour THE UNIVERSE! Experience the Cosmos as no-one ever has - not peering at dots through a telescope or scanning pages of numbers - but firsthand. Flirt with a black hole's Event Horizon, rove the surface of Mars, and plunge into the Sun. Further, this series gives serious, constructive consideration to the great human questions: Are we alone? Is Planet Earth as insignificant to the Cosmos as a drop of water? Is there anywhere else out there that that can support life? Or, is there truly no place like home?
