Cosmos: A Personal Voyage - Season 1 Episode 1 The Shores of the Cosmic Ocean
If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe.
At the beginning of this cosmic journey across space and time, Dr. Carl Sagan takes us to the edge of the universe aboard a spaceship of the imagination. Through beautiful special effects, we witness quasars, exploding galaxies, star clusters, supernovas and pulsars. Returning to our solar system, we enter a re-creation of the Alexandrian Library, the seat of learning on Earth 2,000 years ago.
