Poor to say the least

No mention of Georges Lemaître even whilst discussing the expansion of the universe?

Embarrassing...

Desperately bad show.

A disappointment

It is more sensationalist than informative; the entire thing feels like a trailer for a show that never actually gains momentum. When I watch documentaries on space exploration, I want to be in awe of the information being presented; this show focuses too much on flashy imagery and upbeat, overly vibey music.

Cool but outdated

I liked this, but being from 20 years ago it was kinda hard to watch, with the giant computers, and when they talk about how in the 90's finding a planet was only sifi but now we've found over 70. I busted out laughing because I know we've found over 4000 to date!
