A users guide to the cosmos from the big bang to galaxies, stars, planets and moons. Where did it all come from and how does it all fit together. A primer for anyone who has ever looked up at the night sky and wondered.

An informative series to some degree. Still somewhat shallow in that most episodes revolve around the same question being asked repeatedly by a bodiless narrator while multiple mathematicians and physicists clinically explain their opinions. It is the type of series designed for cable television to keep the audience tuned in through commercial breaks. At the end of each episode I am left ultimately feeling like I have wasted my time and gained nothing. The wild theories presented as explanations do little to convince the audience, as they are not explored very deeply and are easily dismissed within each episode by competing theories.
