The universe is made up of wondrous statistics that detail the incredible range between large and small, near and far, and light and dark – but what any of these inexact terms really describe is still open to debate.
We are surrounded by laws that govern everything – determining the colour of the stars, the gravity controlling our solar system and the beginning and end of the universe itself.

About The Show
New series of How The Universe Works begins Thursday 19th July at 9pm on Discovery.
Professor Michio Kaku
The co-founder of String Field Theory is continuing Einstein’s work and trying to unify four fundamental forces of nature into one theory - The Theory of Everything
There’s a lot to learn. But all you need are a great set of teachers, and a blackboard big enough to contain the entire universe… Well, luckily, we have both.
Theoretical physicists like Michio Kaku and Stephen Hawking show the way, explaining everything from the Big Bang to hypernovae that condense into black holes to eat stars and galaxies alive; from the planets and moons which surround us to the nebulae where stars are created.
All of this knowledge draped across a backcloth of stunning CGI imagery that shows the hidden secrets of the cosmos in detail and allows us, in the words of Professor Hawkings, to “know the mind of God”.
