A Collection of Wonders DVD Boxed Set, featuring Professor Brian Cox – the most popular scientist on our screens. His knowledge, enthusiasm and engaging approach, supported by stunning filming, and CGI have made compulsive viewing of his Wonders of…series.
This Collection of Wonders boxed set includes all three of these acclaimed British BBC documentary series in a 6 disc set.
The Wonders of Life (2013)
In another acclaimed Wonders series, Prof. Brian Cox turns his knowledge and
enthusiasm to explore the fundamental principles that enabled life to begin and
thrive on Earth. In this beautiful and definitive series Prof. Cox tells the
3.7 billion year story of how a few basic ingredients gave birth to the complex
and unique phenomenon we call life. Revealing how everything in the universe,
from the smallest microbe to the largest cluster of galaxies, is constructed
from the same fundamental building blocks and is subject to the same laws of
nature. The Wonders of Life TV Show tells the story of the amazing diversity and
adaptability of life through the processes that govern it. Visiting spectacular
locations including the flooded Taal Volcano on the Philippine island of Luzon,
the Australian outback and the Borneo rainforests, it uncovers the secrets of
life in the most unexpected locations and poses the question: could the
conditions for life be repeated elsewhere in the universe?
Wonders of the Universe (2011)
Physicist Brian Cox presents this exploration of the universe and its effect on
human life. Vast, complex and almost infinite, the universe has been the subject
of human fascination and scientific exploration for thousands of years. Its
properties can seem impossible to grasp, but this series uses the evidence found
in the natural world around us to explain the fundamental principles that
underpin the laws of nature such as light, gravity, matter and time.
Wonders of The Solar System (2010)
Professor Brian Cox takes a giant leap for humankind as images of distant alien
worlds are brought into breathtaking focus. Giant ice fountains rising over
100km high; an ocean hidden beneath a frozen crust of ice; storms three times
the size of Earth coloured blood red by a vortex of dust and gases; immense
volcanoes that would put Mount Everest in the shade – this amazing DVD
reveals the true and awesome beauty of our solar system. It's an epic journey
of discovery, where bizarre worlds become real places we can see, feel and
visit. Travelling from the Sun to the far-out reaches of Neptune, Wonders of the
Solar System has at its heart the latest scientific knowledge beamed back from
the fleet of probes, rovers and telescopes currently in space. Using the very
latest images sent direct from space, and spectacular CGI, the series presents a
spellbinding voyage around the natural wonders of the solar system, capturing
explosive phenomena in minute detail.
