The Complete Cosmos — Episode Guide
The Solar System
- E1: The Sun (1998-01-01) — Birth, life and death of the Sun. Interior dynamics, exterior fireworks. Sunspots, corona, solar wind – all about our local star.
- E2: Mercury (1998-01-08) — The most comprehensive portrait ever of this scorched little planet. Takes a look at double sunrises, craters, cracks and, incongruously, maybe polar ice.
- E3: Venus (1998-01-15) — Looking at the planetary hell beneath the clouds, the poisonous, crushing atmosphere, seating heats, volcanoes and a runaway greenhouse effect.
- E4: Earth (1998-01-22) — The evolution of the earth and of life, its internal structure, continental drift, day length, seasons, oceans, climate, weather and El Nino.
- E5: Moon (aka Luna) (1998-01-29) — The story of the Moon and its birth from collisions, its influence on Earth, Apollo landings and the recent discovery of water.
- E6: Mars (1998-02-05) — Could cold arid Mars be the next place we land? Looking at polar caps, volcanoes, the biggest canyon ever seen and the possibility that Mars once had oceans.
- E7: Jupiter (1998-02-12) — Bigger than the other planets combined, Jupiter is a turbulent gas giant with 16 moons. We take a voyage through this mini Solar System.
- E8: Saturn (1998-02-19) — Exploring the many rings and moons of this exotic gas cloud and a preview of a landing on Titan, a moon like primitive Earth.
- E9: Uranus and Neptune (1998-02-26) — The outer giants. Uranus has a crazy tilt and a chaotic moon called Miranda and Neptune with tempests and a moon spurting geysers.
- E10: Realm of the Comets (1998-03-05) — Looking at comets and where they originate, the Oort Cloud and the Kuiper Belt and the possibility that Pluto isn't a planet at all (recently declassified).
- E11: Earth Patrol (1998-03-12) — Launched into Earth orbit, these are the satellites that monitor the health of our planet. Looking at the ozone, the melting ice-caps, weather, deforestation and navigation.
- E12: Space Frontier (1998-03-19) — Human space exploration, from Yuri Gagarin's first orbit of space to the race for the Moon and the Apollo landings.
- E13: High Life (1998-03-26) — Living and working in space, triumphs, tragedies and everyday practicalities on the Russian space-station Mir and America's Space Shuttle.
Discovery Into Deep Space
- E1: Robots — A look at our scouts in the Solar System. Probes that trail-blaze on Mars, plunge into Jupiter and land on Saturn's moon Titan.
- E2: Where Next? — The possibility of a spaceport in Earth orbit, the colonisation of the Moon and Mars, the taming of Venus, plus an elevator into space !
- E3: Breakthrough! — From the ancient sky-watchers of Babylon to space-age cosmology, the story of astronomy featuring Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, Newton and Hubble.
- E4: Aurorae and Eclipses — Taking a look at celestial shows, how the solar wind conjures an aurora, lunar and solar eclipses explained and a recent eclipse of the Sun.
- E5: Impact! — Exploring the threats of comets and asteroids and what would happen if the space rock that slew the dinosaurs hit New York today.
- E6: Light Fantastic — Visible light reveals only part of the Universe. We look at how other wavelengths fill out the picture, from gamma-rays to radio.
- E7: Life Quest — Is there life elsewhere in the Solar System? Could life be sustained on Jupiter's moon Europa or even Saturn's moon Titan in the future?
- E8: Milky Way — Our galaxy explored and light years explained. Looking at the life and death of stars, supernovae and the clouds where stars are born.
- E9: Hubble's Eye — After astronauts fix its faulty optics, the Hubble Space Telescope peers back through time to the depths of the cosmos.
- E10: Infinity — Looking at the structure of the Universe, galaxies, clusters, strands and how we measure to a nearby galaxy and to the farthest quasar.
- E11: Big Bang, Big Crunch — The theory of the Big Bang explained and how from that cataclysmic explosion the Universe continues to expand, but will it stop and reverse?
- E12: Black Holes, Dark Matter — Although invisible, black holes betray their presence, which is the same with dark matter: the missing 90% of the Universe.
