Wonders of the Universe

Who are we? Why are we here? Where do we come from? These are among the most enduring and profound questions we can ask and it is an essential part of human nature to want to find the answers. Our journey began 13.7 billion years ago with the beginning of our universe and in this series Prof. Brian Cox tells the epic story of our universe and shows how it’s story is also our story.

This is great old 1990's stuff. However, it's the precursor to the BBC programs, such as Complete Cosmos. So, the series has some element of historic merit. The reception is poor. However, it's still a good relaxation video, because of the narrative.
