COSMOS - 8 PART SERIES
Presented with spectacular new images from NASA and ESA's (European Space Agency) May 2009 overhaul of the Hubble Telescope and satellite photos, this video series embarks on an exploration of the known universe from our own planet to galaxies light years away. Complex digital models of galactic collisions, stellar formations and other Astronomical theories along with mesmerizing pho-tography of the world we can't directly observe ourselves make up the visual exposition. This series will inspire wonder and respect for knowledge that is at the root of all science. COSMOS is testimony to the complexity of our world and a perfect visual aid for the
investigation of otherwise abstract principles of infinity, space and time, and the life of the Solar System.

NEBULAS AND GALAXIES - PART I AND PART II
Many of the recent discoveries by the Hubble Space Telescope have
been catalogued by letters and numbers. Gone are the poetic, mythical
names like Milky Way or Andromeda or Pegasus. No claim of miracles,
no mystical story connected to the map of stars.

Earth's Moon was born in a catastrophic collision more than 4 billion
years ago. It started out very close to the planet but has been moving
away ever since. It's drifting away every year.

Over a thousand years ago, the stellar explosion known as supernova
SN 1006 was observed. It was brighter than Venus, and visible during
the day for weeks. The brightest supernova ever recorded on Earth,
this spectacular light show was documented all around the world. An-
cient observers were treated to this celestial firework display without
understanding its cause.
