1 ) we are made of star stuff —— 那些令人感动的台词
01 Standing Up in the Milky Way
To make this journey, we'll need imagination. But imagination alone is not enough, because the reality of nature is far more wondrous than anything we can imagine. This adventure is made possible by generations of searchers strictly adhering to a simple set of rules, test ideas by experiment and observation, build on those ideas that pass the test, reject the ones that fail, follow the evidence wherever it leads and question everything. Accept these terms, and the cosmos is yours.
You, me, everyone... we are made of star stuff.
All of recorded history occupies only the last 14 seconds, and every person you've ever heard of lived somewhere in there. All those kings and battles, migrations and inventions, wars and loves, everything in the history books happened here, in the last seconds of the Cosmic Calendar.
Who was I back then? I was just a 17-year-old kid from the Bronx with dreams of becoming a scientist, and somehow the world's most famous astronomer found time to invite me to Ithaca, in upstate New York, and spend a Saturday with him. I remember that snowy day like it was yesterday. He met me at the bus stop and showed me his laboratory at Cornell University. Carl reached behind his desk and inscribed this book for me. "For Neil, a future astronomer. Carl." At the end of the day, he drove me back to the bus station. The snow was falling harder. He wrote his phone number on a scrap of paper and he said, "If the bus can't get through, call me and spend the night at my home with my family." I already knew I wanted to become a scientist, but that afternoon, I learned from Carl the kind of person I wanted to become. He reached out to me and to countless others, inspiring so many of us to study, teach and do science.
02 Some of the Things That Molecules Do
The awesome power of evolution transformed the ravenous wolf into the faithful shepherd, who protects the herd and drives the wolf away.
Science works on the frontier between knowledge and ignorance. We're not afraid to admit what we don't know. There's no shame in that. The only shame is to pretend that we have all the answers.
03 When Knowledge Conquered Fear
Using nothing more than Newton's laws of gravitation, we astronomers can confidently predict that several billion years from now, our home galaxy, the Milky Way, will merge with our neighboring galaxy Andromeda. Because the distances between the stars are so great compared to their sizes, few if any stars in either galaxy will actually collide. Any life on the worlds of that far-off future should be safe, but they would be treated to an amazing, billion-year-long light show… a dance of a half a trillion stars… to music first heard on one little world by a man who had but one true friend.
04 A Sky Full of Ghosts
-Father... do you believe in ghosts? -Why, yes, my son! -You, you do? I would not have thought so. -Oh, no, not in the human kind of ghost. No... not at all. But look up, my boy, and see a sky full of them. -The stars, father? I do not follow. -Every star is a sun as big, as bright as our own. Just imagine how far away from us you'd have to move the sun to make it appear as small and faint as a star. The light from the stars travels very fast, faster than anything, but not infinitely fast. It takes time for their light to reach us. For the nearest ones, it takes years. For others, centuries. Some stars are so far away, it takes eons for their light to get to Earth. By the time the light from some stars gets here, they are already dead. For those stars, we see only their ghosts. We see their light, but their bodies perished long, long ago. John, I have seen further back in time than any man before me -- millions of years into the past.
If you somehow survived the perilous journey across the event horizon, you'd be able to look back out and see the entire future history of the universe unfold before your eyes.
He broke through the walls of heaven.
The ones that still shine their light upon us long after they're gone.
05 Hiding in The Light
His spectral lines revealed that the visible cosmos is all made of the same elements. The planets... The stars... The galaxies... We, ourselves, and all of life... The same star stuff.
06 Deeper, Deeper, Deeper Still
Every one of them a unique phrase of life's poetry, written in the atoms by eons of evolution.
07 The Clean Room
Today, scientists sound the alarm on other environmental dangers. Vested interests still hire their own scientists to confuse the issue. But in the end, nature will not be fooled.
08 Sisters of The Sun
I was to blame for not having pressed my point. I had given in to authority when I believed I was right. If you are sure of your facts, you should defend your position.
The words of the powerful may prevail in other spheres of human experience, but in science, the only thing that counts is the evidence and the logic of the argument itself.
Will the beings of a distant future, sailing past this wreck of a star, have any idea of the life and worlds that it once warmed?
When a massive star dies, it blows itself to smithereens. Its substance is propelled across the vastness to be stirred by starlight and gathered up by gravity. Stars to dust and dust to stars. In the cosmos, nothing is wasted.
09 The Lost Worlds of Planet Earth
Our sense of the stability of the Earth is an illusion due to the shortness of our lives.
The dinosaurs never saw that asteroid coming. What's our excuse?
All this beauty will have vanished and the Earth of our moment in time will take its place among the lost worlds. The great internal engine of plate tectonics is indifferent to life, as are the small changes in the Earth's orbit and tilt and the occasional collisions with little worlds on rogue orbits. These processes have no notion of what has been going on over billions of years on our planet's surface. They do not care.
10 The Electric Boy
Science is a harsh mistress.
Nothing is too wonderful to be true, if it be consistent with the laws of nature.
11 The Immortals
Every living thing is a masterpiece, written by nature and edited by evolution.
Space is so vast that it would take billions of years for a rock ejected from the Earth to collide with a planet circling another star.
They will gaze up and strain to find the blue dot in their skies. They will marvel at how vulnerable the repository of all our potential once was, how perilous our infancy, how humble our beginnings, how many rivers we had to cross... before we found our way.
12 The World Set Free
There are no scientific or technological obstacles to protecting our world and the precious life that it supports. It all depends on what we truly value and if we can summon the will to act.
We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
13 Unafraid of the Dark
It was as if we had been standing on the seashore at night, mistakenly believing that the froth on the waves was all there was to the ocean.
We call it "dark energy," but that name, like "dark matter," is merely a code word for our ignorance. It's okay not to know all the answers. It's better to admit our ignorance than to believe answers that might be wrong. Pretending to know everything closes the door to finding out what's really there.
That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every superstar, every supreme leader, every saint and sinner in the history of our species, lived there... on a mote of dust suspended... in a sunbeam. The Earth is a very small stage in a vast, cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that in glory and triumph they could become the momentary masters of a fraction... of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner. How frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet... is a lonely speck in the great, enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment, the Earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve and cherish the Pale Blue Dot, the only home we've ever known.
Learning the age of the Earth or the distance to the stars or how life evolves-- what difference does that make? Well, part of it depends on how big a universe you're willing to live in. Some of us like it small. That's fine. Understandable. But I like it big. And when I take all of this into my heart and my mind, I'm uplifted by it. And when I have that feeling, I want to know that it's real, that it's not just something happening inside my own head, because it matters what's true, and our imagination is nothing compared with Nature's awesome reality. I want to know what's in those dark places, and what happened before the Big Bang. I want to know what lies beyond the Cosmic Horizon, and how life began. Are there other places in the cosmos where matter and energy have become alive... and aware? I want to know my ancestors-- all of them. I want to be a good, strong link in the chain of generations. I want to protect my children and the children of ages to come. We, who embody the local eyes and ears and thoughts and feelings of the cosmos, we've begun to learn the story of our origins-- star stuff contemplating the evolution of matter, tracing that long path by which it arrived at consciousness. We and the other living things on this planet carry a legacy of cosmic evolution spanning billions of years. If we take that knowledge to heart, if we come to know and love Nature as it really is, then we will surely be remembered by our descendants as good, strong links in the chain of life. And our children will continue this sacred searching, seeing for us as we have seen for those who came before, discovering wonders yet undreamt of... in the cosmos.
2 ) 《宇宙：穿越时空的冒险》：这回咱们谈谈天朝缺乏的科学观吧
话说五四的时候，中国人想从西洋请德先生和赛先生，就是民主和科学。然后看看将近百年之后的今天，对于这种美好的愿望似乎可以用两个字来回答：呵呵
每天刷微博、朋友圈时，你是否也会因为各种谣言而困扰，什么牙膏尾巴的颜色能看出牙膏用料啊，什么胶原蛋白可以让皮肤有弹性啊，例子都说不过来。所以有时候感觉到天朝人民或许喜欢听信而疏于求证，恰是没有请来赛先生的原因。于是为了宣扬下“科学精神”，今天就推荐由Fox电视网和国家地理频道联合制作的系列纪录片《宇宙：穿越时空的冒险》（以下简称宇宙）
《宇宙》这一名字，很让人联想到08年的国家地理频道推出的《旅行到宇宙边缘》，两部作品都拥有着美轮美奂的CG技术，给我们带来了无与伦比的视觉震撼。它会将你无法感知的世界具象化，行星、太阳系、银河，恐怕只有上帝才能俯视的美景。但是《宇宙》作为系列纪录片，其拥有更为丰富视角，带给人的不仅仅是对于宏观宇宙的感慨，更多的是对人类探索宇宙真理的追忆。
回想少年时，老师问我未来想做什么，我总会坚定的回答说：“科学家”！可是这个理想并不能支撑我物理课及格。即使我们熟知牛顿被苹果砸中而想起了万有引定律，但是当年高考物理看到万有引力的考题时，我却希望当年砸中牛顿的不是苹果，而是榴莲！
这就是我曾经面对科学的心态，枯燥的书本和无聊的科学八卦夺走了骚年们本应具备的科学信仰。但是在《宇宙》一片中，我们却看到了科学所具有的精神和吸引力。《宇宙》用美式漫画的风格回溯了人类科学探索的历史：
我们只知道布鲁诺因为反对地心说而被教会烧死，但是我们却不知道教会为了碾碎他意志而整整折磨了他8年，但是布鲁诺却始终没有放弃自己的信念；我们肯定也猜不到，牛顿之所以能够发明万有引力定律，是因为哈雷与胡克的一个赌局作为引子，牛顿当上皇家学会会长之后烧掉了胡克的画像而导致后世根本不知道胡克长得什么样子。或许关于科学的故事或许远比科学本身有趣，但是《宇宙》却坚持着科学的理念展现了科学界的“人类的群星闪耀时”
《宇宙》从第一集开始就建立了一个宇宙时间体系，从大爆炸（Big Bang！）到现在，《宇宙》把这一历程浓缩成了一年12个月， 在这样一个框架下，《宇宙》带我们走进了一个视觉魔幻的历程，飞出太阳系，众览银河，甚至飘到遥远的宇宙边缘；或是探索微观，深入到晨露或是细胞之中；甚至《宇宙》带我们走到了黑洞的面前：当看到主持人奈尔•德葛拉司•泰森的飞船停留在黑洞的边缘，挣扎于黑洞强大的引力，周围的物质不断被吸进这个黑暗的掠食者，那画面绝对是过去几千年人类都无法想想的世界，此刻却可以在荧幕面前真切的感受，而随着飞船被吸进黑洞，一扇幻想的大门也在那一刻被打开！
《宇宙》的英文名字为《Cosmos: A Space Time Odyssey》。剧如其名，主持人奈尔•德葛拉司•泰森乘坐着穿越时空的飞船，像奥德赛一样带来了一场视觉和心灵魔幻之旅。也展现了这个宇宙亘古不变的原理。
或许历史上的我们能够抵御战争的侵略，但是在科技上，“小米加步枪”是不会赢的！如果从民族的角度去思考，如果科学观能够普及，科学家出现的概率应该会增高。但我也担心，因为难以确定有多少人会因为我的介绍而去观看这部系列纪录片，但是我却坚定了自己的态度：如果我的孩子回答说他希望成为一名科学家的时候，我就需要像《宇宙》这样的作品去告诉我的孩子，科学有着怎样伟大的力量。
3 ) Carl Edward Sagan Side
聚集在这里的，是我们的欢乐和痛苦，是成千上万的宗教信仰、意识形态，和经济学说每个猎手与觅食者，每个英雄与懦夫，每个文明的创立者和毁灭者，每个国王与农夫，每对年轻的爱侣，每一个母亲与父亲、充满希望的孩子们，发明家与探险家，每一位高尚的教师、每一位贪腐的政客，每一位超级明星、每一位最高领袖，人类史上的每一位圣人和罪人，都生活在这里，
如一粒微尘，悬浮在一束阳光之中。地球是一个很小的舞台，在浩瀚的宇宙背景下，想想过去的血流成河，那为帝王将相而流的血，只为让他们在光荣和胜利中，成为瞬间的伟人，占有那一个小点中…那一小部分。想想那无尽的残酷，图像里那一个像素点的某个角落的民众，每天把这残酷施加到与他们没什么区别的另一个角落的民众身上。他们为何常常误解，他们为何渴望杀死对方，他们的憎恨为何如此狂热。
我们在装模做样，我们自以为很重要，妄想着我们人类地位特殊，在宇宙中与众不同，这一切，都因这泛着苍白蓝光的小点而动摇。我们的星球，不过是一粒孤独的微尘，笼罩在伟大的宇宙黑暗之中。
我们默默无闻，沉浸在无尽的浩瀚里，没有一丝线索显示，除了我们自己，
还有谁能拯救我们。地球是目前已知唯一有生命的世界，生命再无其他去处，至少在不久的将来，亦是如此。没有外星球，供人类迁移，只可参观，不能定居。不管你喜欢与否，现在，只有地球供我们立足。据说研习天文，可以让人谦卑，塑造人心，磨炼个性，也许再没有更好的方法能比这遥远的画面更好地显示出人类的自负与愚蠢。
对我而言，它强调了我们的责任，要对人更友善，懂得珍惜与爱护，这泛着苍白蓝光的小点是我们知道的唯一的家园。
“That’s here, that’s home, that’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar,” every “supreme leader,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

4 ) 《宇宙时空之旅》—笔记整理
第一集 宇宙起源
涉及到很多天文知识，感觉自己是个文盲 ，一遍看，看完做笔记一边记一边百度一边感叹。一定要字达到一定程度才能发布吗，可以水字数吗。就是想做个笔记啊喂，我水水水水水水水。可观测宇宙（observable universe）是一个以观测者作为中心的球体空间，小得足以让观测者观测到该范围内的物体，也就是说物体发出的光有足够时间到达观测者。现在推测可观测宇宙半径约为465亿光年，直径约为930亿光年。 根据宇宙学原理，从任何方向到可观测宇宙边缘的距离大致是相等的。
第二集 物种起源
第三集 我愿取名为科学家们的爱恨情仇
人家18世纪在思考宇宙、思考天体运行、思考力学，都开始工业革命了。
我们这开始九王夺嫡😅😅
5 ) 既渺小又伟大
1)哈雷帮助牛顿出版了原理，并和胡克撕逼.通过计算预测哈雷彗星76年一次解除了人们历来的恐惧，还牛逼的发明了潜水钟
2)发现地球年龄的博士, 这哥们的不幸实在是人类的幸。古希腊竟然用铅做餐具等
3)法拉第的故事(最喜欢的一个)，一步步的进入科学殿堂，即使被自己的导师戴维打压,被抑郁症折磨也不断的研究，电磁转换(麦克斯韦完善了数学公式)将人类带到了自动化时代,对光的电磁属性的研究又帮爱因斯坦的研究打下了基础，通过圣诞演讲不断的分享知识
4）其他：牛顿对光进行了分解，后来又有人发现了光谱的不连续性，原子内电子的跃迁需要电子吸收光子，因此通过分析光谱可以发现各个星球有哪些元素构成，金星的引力导致了冰河世纪
即使浩瀚宇宙中地球很渺小，生命依旧一点点的繁衍，即便人类有很多的恶，仍然有一位位的天才或凡人推动文明与技术的发展。
6 ) 《宇宙：时空之旅》解说词选摘
E2
Evolution really happened. Accepting our kinship with all life on Earth is not only solid science. In my view, it's also a soaring spiritual experience.
Science works on the frontier between knowledge and ignorance. We're not afraid to admit what we don't know. There's no shame in that. The only shame is to pretend that we have all the answers.
E3
The human talent for pattern recognition is a two-edged sword. We're especially good at finding patterns, even when they aren't really there -- something known as "false pattern recognition." We hunger for significance, for signs that our personal existence is of special meaning to the universe. To that end, we're all too eager to deceive ourselves and others, to discern a sacred image in a grilled cheese sandwich or find a divine warning in a comet.
……
It's called the Oort Cloud, after Jan Oort, the Dutch astronomer who foretold its existence back in 1950. ...... Oort was also the first to correctly estimate the distance between the Sun and the center of our galaxy. That's a big deal -- finding out where we are in the Milky Way. Our star is about 30,000 light-years from the center. Oort was also the first guy to use a radio telescope to map the galaxy's spiral structure. And he discovered that the center of our galaxy was a place of titanic explosions, the first indication that there might have been a supermassive black hole lurking there.
Does the fact that most of us know the names of mass murderers, but never heard of Jan Oort, say anything about us?
At the time, the World Society of London was the world's clearinghouse of scientific discovery. Its motto, "Nullius in verba," sums up the heart of the scientific method. It's Latin for "see for yourself." In other words, "question authority."
E6
Democritus of Abdera was a true scientist, a man with a passionate desire to know the cosmos and to have fun. This is the man who once said, "a life without parties would be like an endless road without an end."
- "You mean, that's it? That's all there is? Just a bunch of atoms in a void?"
- "Yep. Well, think about it. The world has to be made of countless indivisible particles in a void. Otherwise, nothing could move or grow, be divided or changed without atoms and empty space for them to move in. So don't be sad, my friends. Just think of the infinite possibilities that arise from different arrangements of those atoms. Hails to the atoms, in this cup and in this wine... And to the laughter they make possible."
E9
Each of us is a tiny being riding on the outermost skin of one of the smaller planets for a few dozen trips around the local star.
E11
Human intelligence is imperfect, surely, and newly arisen. The ease with which it can be sweet-talked, overwhelmed, or subverted by other hard-wired tendencies, sometimes themselves disguised as the light of reason, is worrisome. But if our intelligence is the only edge, we must learn to use it better. To sharpen it. To understand its limitations and deficiencies. To use it as cats use stealth before pouncing. As walking sticks use camouflage. To make it the tool of our survival.
If we do this, we can solve almost any problem we are likely to confront in the next 100,000 years.
Our remote descendants, safely arrayed on many worlds throughout the solar system and beyond, will be unified by their common heritage, by their regard for their home planet, and by their knowledge that, whatever other life may be, the only humans in all the universe came from Earth.
They will gaze up and strain to find the blue dot in their skies. They will marvel at how vulnerable the repository of all our potential once was, how perilous our infancy, how humble our beginnings, how many rivers we had to cross... before we found our way.
E13
We call it "dark energy," but that name, like "dark matter," is merely a code word for our ignorance. It's okay not to know all the answers. It's better to admit our ignorance than to believe answers that might be wrong. Pretending to know everything closes the door to finding out what's really there.

---------- (↑ Carl Sagan, "Pale Blue Dot") ----------
How did we, tiny creatures living on that speck of dust, ever manage to figure out how to send spacecraft out among the stars of the Milky Way?
Only a few centuries ago, a mere second of cosmic time, we knew nothing of where or when we were. Oblivious to the rest of the cosmos, we inhabited a kind of prison -- a tiny universe bounded by a nutshell. How did we escape from the prison? It was the work of generations of searchers who took five simple rules to heart:
Question authority - No idea is true just because someone says so, including me. Think for yourself.
Question yourself - Don't believe anything just because you want to. Believing something doesn't make it so.
Test ideas by the evidence gained from observation and experiment - If a favorite idea fails a well-designed test, it's wrong! Get over it.
Follow the evidence, wherever it leads - If you have no evidence, reserve judgment. And perhaps the most important rule of all...
Remember, you could be wrong - Even the best scientists have been wrong about some things. Newton, Einstein, and every other great scientist in history, they all made mistakes. Of course they did -- they were human. Science is a way to keep from fooling ourselves... and each other.
Have scientists known sin? Of course. We have misused science, just as we have every other tool at our disposal, and that's why we can't afford to leave it in the hands of a powerful few. The more science belongs to all of us, the less likely it is to be misused.

7 ) 暗淡蓝点
我们成功地（从外太空）拍到这张照片，细心再看，你会看见一个小点。就是这里，就是我们的家，就是我们。在这点上每个你爱的人、每个你认识的人、每个你曾经听过的人，以及每个曾经存在的人，都在那里过完一生。 这里集合了一切的欢喜与苦难，数千个自信的宗教、意识形态以及经济学说，每个猎人和搜寻者、每个英雄和懦夫、每个文明的创造者与毁灭者、每个国王与农夫、每对相恋中的年轻爱侣、每个充满希望的孩子、每对父母、发明家和探险家，每个教授道德的老师、每个贪污政客、每个超级巨星、每个至高无上的领袖、每个人类历史上的圣人与罪人，都住在这里，一粒悬浮在阳光下的微尘。 在浩瀚的宇宙中，地球不过是一个很小的舞台，想想过去的血流成河，那些芸芸众生为帝王将相而流的血，只为让他们在光荣和胜利中成为瞬间的伟人，去占有那一个小点中的一小部分。想想那无尽的残酷，图像里那一个小点的某个角落的民众，每天把残酷施加到与他们没有区别的另一个角落的同胞身上，他们之间的误解如此频繁，他们多么渴望杀死对方，他们之间的憎恨又如此狂热。 我们在装模做样，我们自以为很重要，妄想着我们人类地位特殊，在宇宙中与众不同，这一切，都因这泛着苍白蓝光的小点而动摇。我们的星球，不过是一粒孤独的微尘，笼罩在伟大的宇宙黑暗之中。我们默默无闻，沉浸在无尽的浩瀚里，没有一丝线索显示，除了我们自己，没人能拯救我们。 地球是目前唯一有生命的星球，再无其他去处，至少在不久的将来亦是如此，没有外星球，供人类迁移，只可参观，不能定居。不管你喜欢与否，现在，只有地球供我们立足。 一直有人说天文学是令人谦卑，同时也是一种塑造性格的学问。对我来说，希望没有比这张从远处拍摄我们微小世界的照片更好的示范，去展示人类自负和愚蠢。对我来说，这强调了我们应该更加亲切和富同情心地去对待身边的每一个人，同时更加保护和珍惜这暗淡蓝点，这个我们目前所知唯一的家。
——奈尔·德葛拉司·泰森
很棒，不仅仅是宇宙、天体物理学的科普，还包罗了量子力学、生物学、环境科学等等。然而更重要的是，本片有大量科学史的内容，以及科学精神的阐释，甚至以及德先生。宇宙，从最宏观到最微观，生命诞生进化的历程，以及我们了解这些知识的历程，在今天具有越来越重要的本体论意义。请选对你的"世界观"。
才看了一集就飙泪两次。。。虽然讲的都是浅显的知识，但是这种上天入地在时间中穿梭的感觉，就是这么让人沉迷。。。对于大众和青少年来说，并不只是传授某种知识便足够，更重要的是将科学的精神埋在新一代的心中。。。科普不就应该是这样的吗？
不愧为IMDB排名前6的电视系列，本剧展现出的科学精神以及带给观众的思考远远超越了影片视觉效果给人的震撼。既能够深入浅出地讲解人类对宇宙的探索史，又能够形象乃至是煽情地激发出普通人对于科学的崇敬，严肃的态度给人以无限哲思。绝对开阔视野，若早七八年看过，说不定我会爱上物理学。
没看过的感觉很难做朋友
人类在浩瀚的宇宙面前渺小的连一枚细胞都不如... 这部系列纪录片拍得太好了... 非常适合拿来科普宇宙常识的人看...非常精彩
我觉得这片可以当做教科书
28.9G
如果是一个科幻迷和纪录片爱好者，不看一定是一生的损失。如果不是科幻迷，不看就是巨大的损失……五星，没有疑问
希望我可以活到知道黑洞里到底是什么那一天
“也许你会说，知道这些有什么用呢？对我而言，这个问题取决于你想活在一个多大的宇宙中。”
剧组好像特别有钱的感觉！
每次看这种纪录片都觉得尘埃人类还要为自己的琐事烦恼，不值一提都不能形容了。
两个字：神作，要给我将来的儿子看，不看就打
如果我是初中物理老师，一定在第一堂课上播一集这！为了能让更多孩子起根儿上决心学好物理！比如我！
人类认识宇宙的过程，也是认识自我的过程。光年尺度下的叙事，让人类显得无足轻重，并不比一粒宇宙尘埃更有意义。但正是通过一代代科学家的不懈努力，才能使我们能够突破肉体的局限性，将人类的视野拓宽到目所能及之外的世界，或许有一天，直至宇宙的边缘。
一部伟大的剧，震撼无以描述
坑货一个，第一集开了个大头，以为接下来要探索宇宙了，结果剩下的11集全都是在地球上呆着，变成讲历史了，各种动画也是让人烦得受不了，这就是一部30分钟能讲完的宇宙纪录片硬生生砸钱加特效和动画改成了12集而已，华而不实，看了以后有一种被欺骗的感觉。
卧槽这片子虽然内容比较浅显，但特效太棒了，制作的如此精良！解说词也很感人，当中穿插的动画也很有意思。颜值太高，令本宝宝颤抖了。。。
Neil讲述与Carl的师徒情谊的那段太感人了。。。
用一段跨越时间与空间的旅行深入浅出的介绍宇宙的概貌和人类的科学发展史，又蕴含着对于地球文明的关怀和历史的反思，传达科学的方法和态度，指引通向未来和真理的道路：质疑权威，独立思考，自我质疑，观察和实验，遵循证据。特效制作水平比大多数科幻片更震撼，科学知识的介绍更利于欣赏科幻片。
