BBC - The Cosmos - A Beginner's Guide
1 of 6 Life in the Cosmos
Are we alone or is there other life out there? In this programme we meet the alien hunters, who spend their time tracking down life in
the Cosmos. Some of them are looking for incredibly primitive life really close at hand. And others are looking for something you
could talk to?

2 of 6 Building the Universe
We reveal all about the universe: how it, and everything in it, came into being and the huge new experiments currently being done to
investigate it.
Adam Hart-Davis presents this episode from the biggest and most daring experiment of all - the Large Hadron Collider.

3 of 6 Seeing the Universe
Most of what we know about the universe, from its age to its size to how it began in a Big Bang, has been found out through
telescopes. But how far out into space and back into time is it possible to see?
In this episode Adam Hart-Davis travels to the Atacama Desert in Chile to visit the VLT - the Very Large Telescope. Perched on top
of a flattened mountain some 2600 metres above sea level, the VLT is the best place on Earth from which to see the universe. Head
of Science, Bruno Leibundgut, explains how this awesome telescope is helping astronomers see further than ever before, enabling
them to tackle some of the ?big? questions in astronomy.

4 of 6 Space Exploration
The human race has harboured a deep fascination for the Cosmos for thousands of years. But the technology to escape the
confines of our planet and explore the Solar System has only been with us for fifty years. In this great adventure we?ve sent probes to
other worlds, inhabited space stations in Earth orbit and put men on the Moon. But what is happening at the cutting edge of space
exploration now?
In this programme Adam Hart-Davis reports from the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) in the
Netherlands. It?s a hive of activity, with engineers working on all sorts of space hardware.

5 of 6 Violent Universe
Until quite recently the night sky seemed cold and calm and never changing - but not any more. In this programme we?ll show you the
dramatic events happening right now, from the edge of the universe to uncomfortably close to home.
Adam Hart-Davis presents this episode from the University of Leicester where he meets a team tracking down the most violent
events in the universe. Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the biggest bangs since the Big Bang and team leader Dr Julian Osborne
explains how Leicester is at the centre of a worldwide network trying to detect them.

6 of 6 Other Worlds
Finding another Earth outside our solar system would be big news - but there are some surprising discoveries in our very own
cosmic backyard. We catch up with some amazing findings in our solar system and beyond and unveil the chances of finding
another earth and, possibly, life elsewhere in the Cosmos.
Adam Hart-Davis presents this programme from a spectacular location - the summit of an extinct volcano at La Palma in the Canary
Islands. It?s one of the world?s best places for star gazing and is home to some hugely impressive telescopes. But our story starts
with an instrument that could fit in your shed at home. Although it?s small, it?s hugely powerful and holds the key to finding worlds
outside our solar system.
