En 1942, convaincus que l'Allemagne hitlérienne est en train de développer une arme nucléaire, les États-Unis initient, dans le plus grand secret, le « Projet Manhattan » destiné à mettre au point la première bombe atomique de l’histoire. Pour piloter ce dispositif, le gouvernement engage J. Robert Oppenheimer, brillant physicien, qui sera bientôt surnommé « le père de la bombe atomique ». C'est dans le laboratoire ultra-secret de Los Alamos, au cœur du désert du Nouveau-Mexique, que le scientifique et son équipe mettent au point une arme révolutionnaire dont les conséquences, vertigineuses, continuent de peser sur le monde actuel…

Ils racontent à des journalistes l’histoire de leur découverte, en 1965, du bruit fossile de la création de l’univers il y a 15 milliards d’années. Parallèlement, en 1963, en Angleterre, un jeune étudiant en cosmologie nommé Stephen Hawking apprend qu’il est atteint de la maladie de Charcot. Hawking n’a plus que deux ans à vivre. Malgré sa maladie, qui le handicape de plus en plus, il se lance dans une recherche acharnée. Il va tenter de démontrer que la théorie de l’état stationnaire de l’univers est fausse et que le monde a eu un commencement : le big bang…

Dekalog (pronounced [dɛˈkalɔk]) is a 1989 Polish drama television miniseries directed by Krzysztof Kieślowski and co-written by Kieślowski with Krzysztof Piesiewicz, with music by Zbigniew Preisner. It consists of ten one-hour films, inspired by the decalogue of the Ten Commandments for thematic inspiration and an overarching structure, grapple deftly with complex moral and existential questions concerning life, death, love, hate, truth, and the passage of time. Each installment explores characters facing one or several moral or ethical dilemmas as they reside in an austere housing project in 1980s Poland, whose lives become subtly intertwined as they face emotional dilemmas that are at once deeply personal and universally human.

One of the most ambitious and exciting theories ever proposed—one that may be the long-sought "theory of everything," which eluded even Einstein—gets a masterful, lavishly computer-animated explanation from bestselling author-physicist Brian Greene, when NOVA presents the nuts, bolts, and sometimes outright nuttiness of string theory.

While the terms "quantum physics" and "Theory of Relativity" are used casually every day, not many people know what they really mean. Yet these theories have had a profound impact not only on science and technology, but also on our world view. This intriguing 6-part documentary series explores the concepts of physics from familiar theories, such as Newton's Law of Gravity, to the latest in scientific research, like string theory and M-theory. By connecting all of this research with the medium of light, we can gain a deeper understanding not only of our immediate reality, but of the unseen realities that are hidden beyond our perception. Starting with Einstein's Theory of Relativity, Physics of Light explores the true nature of light, peers inside the atom, and looks ahead to the most cutting edge theories in physics.

Brian Greene is going to let you in on a secret: We've all been deceived. Our perceptions of time and space have led us astray. Much of what we thought we knew about our universe-that the past has already happened and the future is yet to be, that space is just an empty void, that our universe is the only universe that exists-just might be wrong.

A nine part television series, produced by J.C. Crimmins for PBS. Music composed, arranged and performed by Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays. The stated purpose of “The Search for Solutions” is to stimulate interest in science and technology, primarily among the young. The film comprises nine 18-minute sections touching on various aspects of scientific inquiry that its makers say can be shown as a whole, as it is in this engagement, or in any combination of its parts.
