Franck is an astrophysicist. His job is to perform laser drillings with the Lynx, an exploration rover on Mars. Assisted by his collegues, he spends the night looking for traces of organic life by examining rocks. In the morning, he will meet with his son who has been traveling around the world after staying with his mother.
The coordinates of an old satellite from India, Mihira, are lost with the potential for it to wreak havoc with communications worldwide. Astronaut Dev’s life was turned upside down five years ago and he now teaches science at a government school. He’s brought in to fix the satellite but is that the only reason he agrees to come back?
V roku 1959 v rámci otváracieho ceremoniálu novej základnej školy požiadajú skupinu žiakov, aby nakreslili obrázky, ktoré sa uložia do špeciálneho puzdra a uchovajú sa pre budúce generácie. Jedna záhadná dievčina však namiesto obrázku zaplní svoj papier riadkami zdanlivo náhodných čísel. O päťdesiat rokov neskôr nová generácia žiakov skúma obsah puzdra a tento mystický odkaz skončí v rukách mladého Caleba Koestlera. Jeho otec, profesor John Koestler, urobí zarážajúce odhalenie, že priložený odkaz s neuveriteľnou presnosťou predpovedá dátumy smrteľných nehôd a súradnice každej významnej katastrofy za posledných 50 rokov. Ako John ďalej odhaľuje mrazivé tajomstvá dokumentu, zisťuje, že predpovedá ešte tri ďalšie udalosti, ktoré poukazujú na deštrukciu globálneho rozsahu a zdá sa, že to svojím spôsobom zasiahne aj Johna a jeho syna. John sa snaží varovať úrady, ale tie sú k jeho výzvam nevšímavé. A tak sa rozhodne sám zabrániť ešte väčšej deštrukcii.
The life of astrophysics Margherita Hack, from curious child to unconventional girl at the direction of the Trieste Astronomical Observatory.
An unemployed astrophysicist finds a job of a docker at a grocery store, where he falls in love with a street-wise saleswoman in the produce department. But the groom runs away at the wedding reception.
Astrophysicists show how black holes might hold answers to how the universe evolved, leading to life on Earth and, ultimately, the human race.
A long time ago, years before Elon Musk reached for the stars with his Space X project, a young man had his own childhood dream about a journey into space. This documentary tells the fantastic story of German astrophysicist Lutz Kayser who developed the world's first private space company. He did this under the curious and concerned eyes of secret services around the world.
A team of international scientists attempt to document the first-ever image of a black hole.
what is everything, and what is nothing? Professor Jim Al-Khalili explores the true size and shape of the universe and delves into the amazing science behind apparent nothingness. EVERYTHING: what the universe might actually look like and the remarkable stories of the men and women who discovered the truth about the cosmos. NOTHING: science at the very limits of human perception, where we now understand the deepest mysteries of the universe lie. The quantum world of the super-small shaped the vast universe we inhabit today, and Jim Al-Khalili can prove it.
