As we venture further from Earth, we will remember to look back our home in space – the pale blue dot. The Earth is the only known world to harbour life, and that life has been on an extraordinary journey. Join our expert astronomers on that journey and delve deeper into the Universe than ever before.
Presented by Dynamic Earth
Suitable for Ages 18+
