Professor Brian Cox visits some of the most stunning locations on earth to describe how the laws of nature have carved natural wonders across the solar system.
In this first episode Brian explores the powerhouse of them all, the sun. In India he witnesses a total solar eclipse - when the link to the light and heat that sustains us is cut off for a few precious minutes.
But heat and light are not the only power of the sun over the solar system. In Norway, Brian watches the battle between the sun's wind and earth, as the night sky glows with the northern lights.
Beyond earth, the solar wind continues, creating dazzling aurora on other planets. Brian makes contact with Voyager, a probe that has been travelling since its launch 30 years ago. Now 14 billion kilometres away, Voyager has just detected the solar wind is beginning to peter out. But even here we haven't reached the end of the sun's rule.
Brian explains how its greatest power, gravity, reaches out for hundreds of billions of kilometres, where the lightest gravitational touch encircles our solar system in a mysterious cloud of comets.

Brain Cox，粒子物理学家，英国皇家科学研究员，曼彻斯特大学教授，九十年代英国摇滚乐队D:REAM键盘手。这部纪录片他身兼撰稿和主持双职，配乐太美，旁白写得太美，他边用雨伞戳着地面边略带羞涩地说着“That is Why I like Physics”，我已经完全沦陷了。
很震撼的纪录片
只是一个人在不断说啊说啊说，不是我想要的那样的纪录片 = =
