Voyage In Space & Time: Royal Institution Christmas Lectures
Meteorite-hunter Dr Monica Grady takes us on a 'Voyage in Space' from the Big Bang to the latest news from Mars.
The lecture series considers the big questions. Just how old is the
universe? What is the truth behind dark matter and black holes?
How are galaxies formed, and how does light travel?
Find out about the weirder side of space - what are wormholes and
spaggettification? They may not sound like typical space terms,
but these are real scientific concepts. In addition to numerous
explosions, the lectures are illustrated by some of the most detailed
pictures of space ever taken by the Hubble space telescope.
