Wow...Very cool video...Scary to think that perhaps around one or possibly even more stars have planets with life on them...The Universe is indeed very large...Thanks very much for sharing Isak :'(

Fantastic, Instructional/Educational Video, as usual... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]....

.....isn't it just a shame that the Heavenly Choir of Angels, accompanying the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, with the massed band of the Highland Regiment playing in the background, always spoils the occasion... :'(...!

We get this on our British Television, scientific programs, all the time!

Have you ever stopped, and asked your self, why they do it?.... >:(...!

F.... ;)...!

...letter to the Producer... [smiley=evil.gif]...!

If ever you want to enjoy a Scientific/Educational Film, without unnecessary background "noise", watch the "Open University" Films...;)..!
