Tutto e niente: la scienza stupefacente dello spazio vuoto

If I could, I would rate this documentary (one of three by the brilliant Prof of Physics, University of Surrey, UK. Jim al Khalili) a heck of lot bigger than a mere, "10".

Awe inspiring and breath taking in its scope, history and details, this episode is dangerously exciting. One could possibly describe it as "wonderfully dark" as opposed to the brightly optimistic, feel-good science specials we've been treated to the past 50 years.

This is the REAL STUFF, bringing together concepts of science, history, technology, astronomy and physics in a wat that has never been done before.

To date, I believe I've viewed it over 80 times. It's *that* good. Please put it on your viewing list. You will not be disappointed.

As an arts graduate, I love science docs, as i feel that there is a big gap in my knowledge.

This is the finest science documentary i have ever seen. The 19th century anarchist Pierre-Joseph Proudhon asserted that 'Anarchy is Order,' and then took the rest of his life attempting to explain that concept. By the end of this programme, Prof Al Khalili explains how Chaos Theory actually contains all the rules and systems to explain the existence and behaviour of everything. He goes from first principals to the most complex of ideas, but never once gets ahead of his audience, and by the end, I guarantee, that, like me, the way you view the world, existence and even how the universe came about, will be changed forever. A masterpiece.

Another must-see BBC science documentary. Easy to grasp, far reaching in nature. A nice bite-size expose of a fundamental part of nature. Jim Al Khalili is fast becoming my favorite Scientific Talking-Head.

1 point notched down for, at part, excessive editing (although subdued compared some other BBC broadcasts).

Everything is agreeable except the computer designer created the algorithm. The algorithm takes over but the computer designer created the code. In the same perspective, the big algorithm of life demands a Designer (an originator of the code). All indicates, a DESIGNER needs to exist in order for the code to exist.

Excellent education about chaos. I've read the book "Chaos: Making a New Science" by John Gleick and have seen many presentations on the subject but this one really brought a lot of things together for me. It was the second time I watched it which helped a lot of specifics become more clear. It is always amazing how difficult it is to present new ideas in science when the world is not ready to hear them. "Did you really want to talk about whether?" Phil Connors.
