Content Description

The grand finale — Volume 6 of NHK's landmark 銀河宇宙オデッセイ (Galactic Space Odyssey) documentary series. As the spacecraft Helios reaches its ultimate destination 20 billion light years back in time, this climactic episode confronts the deepest questions of existence: How did the universe begin? What came before the Big Bang? Is the universe finite or infinite? Will it expand forever or collapse? Features an interview with Stephen Hawking, CG visualization of Big Bang cosmology produced in collaboration with Illinois University's Supercomputer Applications Center, and dramatic reconstruction. The series concludes with a meditation on humanity's place in the cosmos. Co-produced with RIAS-TV (Germany). Music by Haru Takauchi.
