NOVA: The Fabric of the Cosmos - Universe or Multiverse? Groundbreaking science show 'Cosmos' is back, on Fox, with host Neil deGrasse Tyson. Patrick Eccelsine/FOX Writer and executive producer Ann Druyan with host and astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson on “Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey” A few days after Ann Druyan fell in love with Carl Sagan, she had the sound of her heartbeat recorded onto a golden record.
That record now travels aboard the two Voyager spacecraft, beyond the solar system and into the mysteries of interstellar space. Which is exactly where Druyan hopes to take viewers of “Cosmos” — a reimagining of the iconic 1980 show of the same name that starred Sagan, the legendary astrophysicist and her late husband.
“Carl made it possible for everyone to feel goose bumps about the grandeur, beauty and romance of life in the cosmos,” Druyan, who worked on both the original and the new show, told the Daily News. “There are many surprises in the new show, and we’re going places that Carl and I in the original series never got to go.” Fox Host Neil deGrasse Tyson on the new “Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey” NOVA: The Fabric of the Cosmos - Universe or Multiverse? Origins: Series Overview. Origins: Back to the Beginning September 29, 2004 NEIL deGRASSE TYSON (Astrophysicist): A hellish, fiery wasteland, a molten planet hostile to life, yet somehow, amazingly, this is where we got our start.
How? How did the universe, our planet, how did we ourselves come to be? How did the first sparks of life take hold here? Right now, we're all eavesdropping on the birth pangs of the cosmos. DAVID SPERGEL (Princeton University): ...how big it is, how old it is, what's it made of, and what were the processes that made galaxies, that made us. NEIL deGRASSE TYSON: So a furious race is on to solve the ultimate mystery.
ANTHONY READHEAD (California Institute of Technology): The spirit of competition is one of the things, of course, that drives scientists. Keep our fingers crossed. NEIL deGRASSE TYSON: And as our new vision of the universe emerges, strange ideas reveal themselves. STAN WOOSLEY (University of California, Santa Cruz): Stars are the ultimate alchemist. Hello. ARNO PENZIAS: Oh, yeah. Cosmic Queries with Bill Nye and Astro Mike. Listen now: Season 5, Episode 9 Neil’s off this episode, working on the new COSMOS series for FOX, but guest host Bill Nye the Science Guy, co-host Eugene Mirman and guest Astro Mike Massimino have a world of fun answering your questions.
Bill explains how electromagnetism works, who Michael Faraday was, what NASA’s MAVEN mission will be searching for when it reaches Mars, and why you might not want to wear magnets on your wrists to improve your health. You’ll get updates on the state of 3-D printing, liquid metal batteries, carbon nanotubes and super conductivity. Find out how NASA shields astronauts from radiation, what would happen to a fish (real or Swedish) in a giant water bubble floating in space, and how spacecraft move through the void without anything to “push against.” Guest Host:Bill Nye the Science Guy Co-Host:Eugene Mirman, Comedian.
