Season 1

Science fiction becomes reality as the world's most innovative engineers experiment with nuclear engines, fusion and antimatter drives in the hopes of rocketing us beyond the confines of our solar system.

Earth is one of a billion trillion worlds floating through the cosmos. A new generation of pioneers and explorers are now looking to the stars in the hopes of finding the prime piece of cosmic real estate, a second Earth.

Humans weren't born to survive in space, but our passion for exploration has bred adaptability and innovation like never before. What does the future hold for crewed spaceflight?

Are we alone in the universe? The search for our cosmic neighbours has only just begun. Whatever form that may take!

It's the dream of every sci-fi film, but the reality is far from fiction. Will we ever find intelligent aliens, and if we did, how will we communicate with them?

Earth is a single grain of sand amongst all the beaches of the world. So what can our place in the cosmos tell us about life in the universe? And if another civilisation ever looked towards us, what might they see?
