Released on March 09, 2014
Documentary

In the captivating documentary series 'Cosmos', renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson embarks on an enthralling journey across the universe, delving into the profound mysteries of space and time. As the successor to Carl Sagan's groundbreaking 'Cosmos: A Personal Voyage', this continuation of the saga fulfills a dual role as both a tribute and an evolution of its predecessor's mission: to make the science of the universe accessible to viewers from all walks of life. Tyson's natural charisma and unrivaled expertise serve to guide the audience through the vastness of the cosmos, as he uncovers the fascinating stories hidden within the celestial bodies that populate the universe.

The series doesn't shy away from tackling the most complex scientific concepts, such as the laws of gravity and the origins of the cosmos. Through the use of stunning visual effects and inspired analogies, Tyson manages to render these complicated ideas into easily digestible and mesmerizing narratives. In exploring these themes, the show delves into never-before-told stories of our universe, unraveling the secrets of celestial objects such as supernovas, black holes, and the very fabric of space-time itself. In this way, Tyson's expert storytelling and exquisite scientific understanding come together to create a captivating and revelatory exploration of the cosmos.

One of the most compelling aspects of 'Cosmos' is its dedication to emphasizing the interconnectedness of our universe. Through a historical and philosophical lens, Tyson demonstrates how the far reaches of the cosmos are directly linked to life here on Earth. Viewers are invited to reflect on the grand interplay of forces that have shaped our planet and the cosmos, ultimately revealing that we are made of stardust, and the universe itself is in a state of an eternal and beautifully intricate dance. 'Cosmos' serves as an important reminder that while our individual lives may seem small and insignificant in comparison to the unfathomable scale of the universe, in truth, we are inextricably linked to the grand cosmic story that continues to unfold around us.

Cosmos ran for 3 seasons.
