OMG, i was scrolling down my history on my old phones i used. andd i came across my moms phone which she bought in 2011. and i found this it was one of my first video i watched. i was seven at the time now. im 15 well next month 16 so yeah. i watched the video and i loved as much as i did when i was seven. my mom bought this phone after my sister was born!!!! edit: i'm working on astronomy and i showed the video to my sis and she really likes it so yeah till this day i have never stopped watch Bbc. my sister use bbc bitesize for homework and i use Bbc iplayer well my full family does. >,
this subject is so fascinating, i am hooked, and brian cox is the right guy to be explaining it. he is a brilliant speaker and keeps it simple for dummies like me,,
I love astronomy myself and this programme is amazing for gaining knowledge and new information. Not to much detail but enough to keep it entertaining. Maybe one day, I'll get to Space :)
18:44 - Oh crap, this shows how old this feels when he mentions 2024 the next time this happens, and now we are in 2024, New Year's Day as I type this.
Yeah i love them, and other bands like them (Riceboy Sleeps, of course! lol). Mum is another fav band from that type of music. The song just before that SR song is "Dayvan Cowboy" by Boards of Canada from their "The Campfire Headphase" album. Great stuff! I also love just plain ambient (although "plain" is not a good word to describe the best). Robert Rich, Pete Namlook, Steve Roach, and Dr. Jeffrey Thompson are just a few of my fav ambient artists. I wish I knew all the music in this show. :o)
I can't name the exact brand, but it is known as a Newtonian Reflector telescope mounted on a Dobsonian Mount - typically referred to as Dobsonians. They are inexpensive and ideal beginner scopes. Hope this helps and is the information you were looking for.

Can I please just watch one video on You Tube without the religious freaks polluting the comments section? I love stargazing and don't give a toss about intelligent design, I just appreciate the beauty for what it is.
The ABC is also a business, it has retail outlets all over Australia that sell everything from A to Z. As I said to the other person just look it up (ABC shop). The old license fee was not just for the ABC it was for all of the TV stations at that time.
He doesnt have to stretch it to stop it collapsing though does he? Why not make it static? Why does gravity throw a spanner in the works for an omnipotent being?
there's one thing i don't get in this, and sorry for the amateur question, but brian said that a massless particle travelling at the speed of light (like a photon) would reach anywhere in the universe instantaneously. but isn't the definition of a light year the distance that light can travel in a year? a bit confused as to how that works out.. can anyone explain? thanks in advance! and also, THAT SUDDEN SIGUR ROS!!!!!
+chew wei li From the particle's frame of reference, it would arrive there instantaneously. But from your frame of reference, it would take millions of years to cross a large part of the Universe. For instance, if you traveled at the speed of light to the edge of the Universe and back to Earth, it would take you mere seconds. But by the time you got back, all life would be extinct on Earth because from the Earth's frame of reference, you were gone for billions of years. (though it would of course be impossible for this to happen).
He probably meant you as mass , if mass could travel the speed of light then the energy and forces required would have to be infinite and if it's infinite then being anywhere instantly would be the result.
@TheMusicMannBebo you didnt site your source for you claim that only 3% of the human genome was used in comparison.... Im going to guess it was off a creation website... am i right?? :D
@TheMusicMannBebo when i was a child i used to believe things, now it takes evidence to convince me... the genetic evidence that tells us we evolved from apes is full and complete.. Which god is it that you believe in, and what made you choose that one over the others?? have you studied all the different texts, or were you simply born into it??
If I ever come into great wealth I would certainly invest great amounts into building a state of the art telescope that would be worthy of visits by the likes of Brian Cox, Alex Filippenko, Krauss, Perlmutter, and Neil deGrasse Tyson. And when they came I would hit them with a huge cover charge and a 5 drink minimum at the door. For real though, how awesome would it be to watch and listen to them discuss things that make no sense to most of us as they do whatever it is they do that lead to greater understandings of the universe and everything in it.
@frackcha Thats called training the body my friend, their kids are not born with that, they train for it. Same as any athlete for e.g trains for what they do. What a marvellous design that is, one tube which diverts from breathing and eating, also for talking words of wisdom. Do you know there is not one transitional fossil on the planet? (half one kind, half the other) when there should be milions? Nothing can tell its self to change physical parts of its body, what a great designer God is.
My theory is this, gravity is a force which attracts objects towards themselves. Gravity ensures we stay put on earth and that planets can orbit the sun! You say gravity is a spanner, but without it we would not be able to function! We work best under compression...The universe operates using the same principles, but unlike us, it works best under the opposite condition, therefore he maintains a balanced universe by continuously applying a force, which scientists call Redshift.
@TheMusicMannBebo i just want too know how is believing we evolved from apes sound any more ridiculous then a man who is everywhere and controls everything but we have no proof even exists, how is what you think any different to an invisible unicorn in the sky that controls everything? (i'm not disagreeing with you or agreeing either, i have an open mind and like to listen to all opinions and ask questions which i am interested to see what the answer is)
