  肉眼只能看见穹苍一角。凝视夜空,但见繁星点点,偶尔一颗流星划破夜空,但你可曾看见恒星死亡前的最后爆发?瞪视双手,你或会看见点点尘垢,但你又可曾看见组成皮肤的原子在颤动?因为眼不能见,我们只能纵驰想像,去探索这个深邃广阔的宇宙。  幸运地,想像并不是见那不可见的唯一方法。《时空之旅》揉合了最先进的科技和最新的电脑动画技术,将人类已知的宇宙重现出来,在片中,你将会参加一次动人心魄的旅程,你的行程将横跨整个科学界所知的时间和空间─由夸克(构成物质的最小粒子)到可观察宇宙的尽头;由宇宙初开的大爆炸到人类现今的文明世界。  科技无疑能帮助我们看见很多宇宙奇景,但更多宇宙的谜团仍未解开。在总结过去科学发现的同时,这次梦想旅程的终结也许正是人类真正时空之旅的开始。本片获第六十九届奥斯卡金像奖最佳纪录短片提名。

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.
