"How the universe works" first part of the last song

[mas2ery]

Extreme stars episode? i cant find it nowhere, i spent countless hours searching, even tried to recreate original using "band in a box"...more countless hours trying to figure out the software...FAIL.....

[Abayarde718]

PLEASE Someone there was en episode on tonight on Stars. It had the most amazing music I ever heard, please where can I find this???

[vitorcui]

Man call me a big vagina but I man teared when this was playing at the end of one of the eps... Its just so amazing and beautiful out there.

From star dust to star dust. :)

[JacekPT]

The first part is called "flight" but what about the second part?

[GuardDuty89]

This song. It doesn't make me sad but it kind of brings a tear to my eye.

[Telmo3190]

Nice.

[Frackdanup]

Awesome theme...well played man

[MrKentuckyducky]

enjoy the song and stop bickering about God, science and big foot. wish Mr. Oliphant would release this song. I'd def pay for this

[TheMicahJonElliott]

It sounds a lot like one of the songs from UP

[francofs]

Impossible to find this song for download or even purchase...

[Malachism]

Can someone point me in the direction of a Torrent or somewhere I can download the Soundtrack from How the Universe Works?

Stuff's amazing.

[inkyguy]

You did a very good job. Thank you for contributing this.

I wish the music by this composer for the series was available for purchase. Not since Cosmos has there been as good a soundtrack for such a program.

[AchillesArms]

I agree! Does anyone know the name of the song????

So epic and beautiful

[EvilRobin1]

I give +1 Internet to the one who tells me the name of this song :)

[emersonv2000]

How can I recreate this on Garageband? :D

[WTFmode1]

ty a lot but so sad upload the others when you can :)

[1roxylinkinparklover]

Everyone that dosn't know the name of this song, it is 'Flight' by Richard Blair-Oliphant. If you look it up here on Youtube, the picture of the video is half of a Boing plane. And the video is the Boing plane flying around.

Sincerly, Kally

[Hoshimaru57]

Now all you need is the dialogue from "pale blue dot" played over this and you'll have all of youtube crying.

[Yukisubaki]

Would very much love to know the name of this masterpiece, it's just more beautiful than words can describe, honestly.

[sulev15]

@Yukisubaki "richard blair oliphant - flight",... i think

[galaxything]

Quote " science arose around the time of Aristotle" I think you will find science has been around since the birth of the universe and who know's may be even before, there must be science needed to create the universe rite? If not then it points to a higher even divine act. And ofc science does come up against this.. And for your information I am well aware of what science debates and theorises and that which it considers correct and fact! These are things tought to us in school as if true.

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

"...science has been around since the birth of the universe..." - Listen to yourself!

Science is a methodology by which we collect evidence, organise knowledge into testable explanations and predictions in order to understand the natural world. How can science exist without the conscious beings to utilise it? Were you making a joke earlier? Aristotle was the first to develop the scientific criteria and rationale still in use. So no science can't exist without a scientist.

[woogie1228]

I LOVE this song! It's like the song "Married Life" from Pixar's movie Up, but more chill. Loved this show as well.

[galaxything]

watched this on discovery, love the tune! But it's annoying how they speak of things they don't understand or know for sure as if it's 100% true and a fact. Just like they did when the earth was flat...

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

What are you on about?

The greatest thing about this show, is the amount of times the narrator states, "we don't really know".

Who is "they"? Perhaps you need to get your history right, because it wasn't until scientifically minded people i.e. Eratosthenes, did we realise through evidence & observation that the Earth was spherical.

Are you sure you watched the correct show?

[galaxything]

@ElDuorPaso There are some thing's they don't know for sure yet talk as if they do and that's what I was talking about. And your example of the earth being proven spherical by science... Eerm You do know that it was science that kept the world flat for so long? Science doesn't like change, it gets it's ideas and sticks with them no matter what. Eventually but way overdue, overwhelming evidence will change it but by then every one knows science was wrong about it anyway.

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

Well you haven't mentioned anything that they talk about with certainty that is uncertain.

First of all. Since Eratosthenes did in fact prove the Earth was spherical through simple mathematical calculations, and since science arose around the time of Aristotle (less than a hundred years prior to Eratosthenes' discovery)... Thus, how is it possible that science claimed the Earth was flat if science had only been around for less than a hundred years prior to Eratosthenes' discovery?

[ElDuorPaso]

Before then nobody empirically investigated the shape of the Earth.

The Earth was deemed flat thousands of years before the Greeks of Classical Antiquity. Ideas such as a flat Earth came about during the infancy of our species, much about the time religion occurred. It was an attempt to explain our surroundings: it was our first attempt even though a stupid attempt.

It had nothing to do with science. That's ahistorical.

Here's a video from the much beloved Cosmos:

/watch?v=G8cbIWMv0rI

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

Please get your info right.

Science is the only thing that does change. The only other thing we have is religion, which is grounded in its own scripture. The theory of evolution has changed alot since Darwin, and Darwin got a lot of things wrong.

The steady state theory of the universe was immediately replaced with the Big Bang Theory after Hubble's finding of red light shifting galaxies.

At least science changes, and changes not by whim/personal preference, but by evidence!

[galaxything]

@ElDuorPaso First off I didn't state anything in particular because there is too much. I study astrophysics so trust me I know what Im talking about! I have many discussions with my teachers based on my original comment here and they all agree that yes science tells it as if it's fact because it thinks at the time it is. Not until later proven wrong does it change. And that was my point. So science should say "This is what we think at the moment" But it doesn't. Science today will be laughed at

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

1) Well mentioning anything would be a start.

I will offer you no trust, simply because you "study" astrophysics. Your previous ahistorical comment is enough reason for me to distrust you. I too have studied physics and biology, irrelevant, because I don't spout nonsensical rubbish like "science said the Earth was flat".

No. Not everything is treated as fact in science just because evidence supports it or it has become a theory. Take for instance 'string theory', still inconclusive.

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

2) Other theories are simply considered fact, i.e. the theory of gravity - although we don't know what gravity "is", its presence is undeniable. Evolution is also a fact, although there is a huge divergence of opinion on the mechanism of evolution.

If your teachers really think that 'science taught the Earth was flat'. I think you need to check with them as to what else they think. You and your teachers could not be more logically and historically incorrect. Do the math, please.

[galaxything]

@ElDuorPaso In astrophysics this includes things like black holes, being told they are black because light can't escape when in fact there is a guy by the name of Sereda who did a great model showing that actually they are luminous but at such a frequency you cannot see it. His model actually makes more sense. Teachers told pupils the earth was flat at one point and today teachers continue teaching things as if correct when one day it will be shown to be wrong, again that.s my point!

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

Searda? You mean that whacky UFO guy?

Black holes are not luminous. The theory of relativity predicts (which came true) that dense matter will deform spacetime.

Unless you're mixing photons with Hawking radiation or quasars, then you're going nowhere.

Photons orbit a black hole in the photon sphere, which still allows it to escape. It is not until, due to inbound trajectory, that photons cross the photon sphere and are captured by the black hole.

[galaxything]

@ElDuorPaso Quotes from google "The link above talks about the theory of evolution and where we came from. For all you ape lovers out there, even these scientists have extreme doubts that we came from apes. Granted, they still are looking for how we "evolved" but what exactly is scientific proof? Everything up until now sounds like a bunch of people in white coats throwing out theories until a bunch of other guys in white coats decide to go along with it. Sounds like that game Balderdash."

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

We do not "come from apes"! You would earn much more respect if you would ask rather than tell.

We share a common ancestry with apes. Our closes ancestor is the Chimpanzee, from whom we are only half a chromosome away.

There is a huge consensus on the theory of evolution. It is a fact among biologists. We know how evolution by natural selection works. We can make vaccines for flues, cures for diseases; because we can sequence the pathogen and find its relationship with humans.

[galaxything]

@ElDuorPaso and "Science is meant to be proven wrong and reevaluated, that's how we make progress and learn new things." Science is never set it is always learning and thus changing what it knows that is just a fact even though you don't seem to like it. My point was thus, science should teach that this is what it thinks and understands rite now but could change in time with new info. It should not teach as truth and fact and again that was my original point!! Stop being so argumentative!

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

"Science is meant to be proven wrong and reevaluated, that's how we make progress and learn new things"

That is the smartest thing you have said throughout your entire rant.

Science is never certain about anything. The shape of the Earth is also a theory. However there is so much evidence to indicate that it is spherical that you would be considered insane to object to the truth of it. Hence, the evidence for gravity & evolution is also so strong that it cannot be other than fact.

[ElDuorPaso]

@galaxything

One other thing I need to pick you up on:

"...may be even before, there must be science needed to create the universe rite?"

The reason why we know that the big bang ever happened is because we can observe it.

There is a good reason why you're wrong in your statement. Which is best explained why, by this video -

'A Universe From Nothing' by Lawrence Krauss':

/watch?v=7ImvlS8PLIo

50:00-53:00.

The title is misleading. However If you wish to further discuss this please PM me.

[TheRunner241]

Makes me want to treasure every moment I'm on this planet. :'''( good song.

[galaxything]

where can I get the full version of this?

[RelaxAlready]

thank you :)

[pistoldrums]

I need a complete version of this.. So awesome.

[123Cranker]

This reminds me of the Lord of the Rings theme, the melody in the intro

[TheMichaelJacksons]

Thanks a lot for that!

[jamie190595]

what are the letters on keyboard for this?

[sulev15]

@jamie190595 for the bass parts... chords: F Em F Em Dm C Dm C

the high parts e:---13-17-13-12-- -10--8-5-3--

easy as that!

[derowite1]

have been searching for this beautiful piece of music ever since watching the programe but to no avail,very frustrating

[Dt0x75]

You wouldnt happen to know the name of this would you? I know its from How the Universe works that why im looking but I cant seem to find any list of his works....

Good job with this btw...It sounds good.

[sulev15]

@Dt0x75 check the description... I only know the author. I found it from the credits of the show.

thx

[Dt0x75]

@sulev15 damn...lol...Yea I got the composers name from the credits but thats as far as that got. Hes listed in IMDB but nothing about this series. That tells me they used his music from another movie or show....Thank you though. I was looking for this song because its perfect for my art I make with photoshop.... *sigh* ...*Keeps looking*.....lol

[123Cranker]

@Dt0x75 If youre still looking for the name of this song its Flight by Richard Blair Oliphant

[Dt0x75]

@123Cranker Thank you very much and yes I am still looking for it.

[Haiglatuba]

Maestro...
