Produced for England’s The Discovery Channel, this informative series uses actual pictures and footage from various astronomical observatories, including the Hubble space telescope and computer-generated simulation to explore the main features of our universe which have fascinated humankind for thousands of years. The narration is in easy to understand language and would be eminently suitable for Upper Primary to Tertiary level students.
