  • Thank 4 creating such a beautiful series.

  • The beauty of this trailer and the message of the series is never wasted and will never become old. Kudos for starting this project.

  • where did you get the richard feynman quote from?

  • I dunno, me and my friend got super high on weed, and watched this documentary series, it was so awesome and amazing, i wetted myself.

  • Great video, and it is wonderful to see how far we have come. Once upon a time the earth was the center of the universe. Once upon a time the world was flat. With exploration comes more questions than answers. When you look at models of us, the Earth and the other planets that circle around the sun, why do we only see it as moving along a single plane? We are shown that it moves in one way and one way only. --part 1

  • Like spinning a chair around it never does anything else except turn in that one direction... Why is it that when we look at atoms the electrons themselves, they move in an orbital pattern that does not stay on one plane but rather it moves in the same direction but continuously shifting the plane and circles all around. When you take a closer look at the rings of Saturn we have discovered that there are elevations that can be compare to the mountain ranges of any planet. --part 2

  • When you look at systems that connect to another why do they move in the same manner as electrons of an atom? Does the solar system really move on one single path? One single plane? When the largest and smallest things that we can see and study move one way why does our system differ? Or does it? --part 3

  • Will this series continue, by the way? Haven't heard any news about part 4 for a while now..

    Not pressuring you, mind you! Just wondering ;p

    Anyhow, great job you're doing! You're genious :)

  • @AndromedasWake you are such a bad ass. I like that I still have the rest of your channel to go and this series to see. AronRa, Tf00t, and Potholer54's channels have excellent science and just the medicine needed for a freshly non-christian like myself, but your channel has absolute beauty. You know that, though since I can tell that is one reason why you do this. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. I am amazed by the truth, it really is better than our comfy myths.

  • Great score!

  • how great the universe is and were stuck here and wen i say mars` surface i cryed then realized we broke the barrier of the universe we can go were ever

  • the universe: wonderful gift from God.

    those marvelous things made me interested in astronomy...

  • I love it!

  • This is just the trailer and it makes me want to go out and buy a better monitor and amazing speakers. Mine can't get any louder :(

  • The music in this video is great. Goes along well with the views.

  • the last animation of the formation of the northern/ southern lights is amazing, love it!

  • The music reminded me of an old song called "Pictures of Matchstick Men". What a great video. I am subscribing.

  • I started shivering before 2:00 hit...about when the music changed dynamics...

  • 3:13 And beyond makes me shiver :) As an aspiring astronomer, videos like these always reignite my passion for the subject.

  • I think this video is so great that i have probably watched it 10-20 times :)

  • can some link me to the quote thing in the middle

  • Great quote from Feynman.

  • can u put it in words or send me a inlk of the quote? :)

  • I hope you feel better and can start on this series soon.  The information presented here will certainly be an asset to the new series I am working on.

    Thanks for subscribing.

  • It says winter 2008....where is it?

  • THE WAIT IS KILLING ME

  • Just give us the damn series opening already! I'm dieing here for f*cks sake! I CAN't TAKE THE WAIT ANYMORE! :(

    *head explodes*

  • relax hehe its coming.

    try downloading different documentaries about space, the documentary "cosmos" by carl sagan is VERY good, although its from the 80s, but that does not matter at all.

  • Hehe, thanks for the suggestion.... But yeah maybe I'll watch Cosmos . . . for the fourth time! :D

  • hahaha, nice :P

  • damn you AW the song is now stuck in my head for 3 days in a row, it's now becoming hard to read or concentrate on other tasks :(( help !

  • try listening to the pokemon theme song. it'll get the previous song outta your head but i'm afraid you'll have to deal with the greater consequences of having the theme song in your head.

  • Comment removed

  • Oh man, I am really looking forward to this.

    When you upload the documentary, would you be so kind as to upload the original video file for us to mirror in our channels? I'd love to spread the love and knowledge.

  • A little late, but we forgive you, I am really looking forward to this.

    In fact, I really think YouTube needs more movies like this; those that have the theme that science is awe-inspiring and infinitely beautiful, with good music and amazing imagery from the real world of scientific research.

  • looking forward to this

  • Have you thought about integrating some of these episodes into the interactive tour feature of MS Worldwide Telescope? I think that'd be a good way to get the word out.

  • I LOVE the music

  • looking forward to this

  • Like a true Prophet of reason you get 5 stars.

  • That is a pretty nice introduction, it will be great to see the series behind it, have any idea how many episodes will be in that series?

  • im looking forward to this. Andromeda, you are very good at designing your videos. Nice pictures and music

  • i loved the shear beauty of the universe. it's just awe inspiring

  • Wow the aurora model is fascinating!

  • I agree, simply fascinating. Wishing I had studied more astronomy/cosmology :D

    Awesome, literally.

  • Oh and thanks for the mpFree! I love it!

  • I am really excited for this! What you have here so far looks amazing, but getting "amazing" from our universe must be the easy part. I wish you luck and great success.

  • Strapping myself for what promises to be a total tour de force. Even the trailer is legendary. 5*

  • I can't wait for this to come out! Beautiful trailer, beautiful score. I wish the demo had the quote in it by Feynman, I thought it went perfectly with the song. Well done and thank you for all that you've done for us.

  • The truth is remarkable! Will be keeping an eye open!

  • I can't wait for this movie to come out now!

  • this looks like it will be a great experience for everyone cant wait to watch the episodes.

  • Brilliant! Somehow in my travels I missed this absolutely phenomenal, intriguing trailer. Many of my colleagues are wondering when the full length version is scheduled to be published in your YouTube Web space. The trailer states "Winter 2008". This is amazing. We can't wait to view the whole documentary. Kudos!:)

  • can i upload this video to my channel?

  • I almost got an orgasm...

  • rofl

  • Wooord, AndromedasWake on my iPod.

    *Donated

  • Fantastic- faved and will share- thanks Josef for turning me onto this- its humbling to think that a person is not as measurable as a sub atomic particle on The Universal scale, yet many feel so important- yes, absolutely, learn and discover and honor all creation- we are made of "star stuff" afterall....

  • Just 1 friggin word:

    EPIC

    Just, I haven't got anymore to say anymore. And really, that's rare :(.

  • Now I wander, is it also going to contain the YouTube option of subtitles?

    Pretty much and perhaps this is for me personally, but heck. Sometimes when I misheard something I tend to listen again, and again until I managed to actually find out what they are saying.

    However, if it is subbed, I just pause the video and reread it again. So I'm actually hoping somebody will subtitle this.

  • I uploaded it on my channel with subtitles, check it out if there's something you didn't understand (i hope i got all the words right)

  • Awesome video, can't wait for the series!

  • 2:51 - what's that?

  • A close-up picture of a sunspot.

  • Nevermind, I'm dumb. Just downloaded and uploaded.

  • I'm in love with the trailer. Great music too. I'd help spread the word but I don't know how to copy a video and repost it. :)

  • I am really looking forward to this. Watched History channel's Universe-visually good-but aimed below 3rd graders.

    Talk up not down to children, if they're watching it (ie interested) they will follow along or find out why, and not lose adults too.

    GO LHC. Crank that puppy up.

  • who said they did?

  • GOD

  • You seem unaware of what scientists and experiments actually aspire to accomplish.

    Understanding the processes by which the universe formed and operates, and then using that understanding to implement a better interaction with the world. Like spraying paint on an invisible sculpture, so you can see the "shape" better.

    Is that a good metaphor? Who knows?

  • It is a good metaphor if you believe the universe is analogous with a statue (that somebody made). For atheists not such a good definition, but it does make sense. Science is trying to understand everything. To be cognitive about existence, or conScience of it anyway.

  • It would appear that I am too hungover to make sense at this point. The word I was going for was conscious, scious and science also share some roots though.

  • Of course I don't believe the universe is analogous with a created object. I was using an artistic metaphor simply because the universe is beautiful and breathtaking, and more so the more of it is revealed. I'm not some religious fuckhead, I'm an atheist. A cursory glance at my channel would have revealed that.

  • My bad, I am not in the habit of cursory glances at random peoples channels. I was also not trying to be condescending in anyway. I think religious people deserve as much a right to their beliefs as any of the rest of us, as wrong as they are.

  • Beliefs are fine. If religious people stuck their beliefs inside their head, no problem. But so many of them don't. They push them on the world, and all kinds of bad shit happens. Religious beliefs are protected to an extent that secular beliefs are not, divorced from rational enquiry and critique. Everything should be open to question. My worldview is open to question, because I can defend it rationally, but most religious people quash dissent. It's built in.

  • beautiful

  • Can someone tell what's going on at 3:40?

  • It's a solar flare. Hi energy ions travel back up the magnetic field lines when it recoils from the shock of the flare to cause the nothern and southern lights. Happens on other planets too. ;]

  • yes the aurora borealis, nice clip I have never seen that one before.

  • Wow- a trailer that is truly inspirational!

  • 5 Stars, and subscribed!

  • i got goosebumps ! i can't wait !!

  • loved the music

  • love your taste of music! - nice imagery as well- can't wait to see it!

    5 stars + fav!

  • well Andromeda you have given the rest of us something to look forward to in the crapy winter. Thanks :)

  • Absolutely incredible, the music and imagery complement each other very well and nearly give me an oceanic experience. I'll be waiting idly for more!

  • I was listening to this video while zooming in on Hubble's Ultra Deep Field image in Google sky.

    I can't describe the feeling, but I'm almost brought to tears by the cheer beauty of it all.

    Absolutely amazing.

  • I am so psyched for this.

  • total cool

  • Wonderful! i'm posting this on my blog, too. If you do an Earth episode(s), if you have any questions, ask me! i like to think i know a thing or two about earth history.

  • Consider me a fan! :)

  • This looks and sounds unbelievably spectacular! I can not wait the first episode!!

  • AW, you should post more of your music. It's great.

  • I'm looking forward to this. I'll be posting the video on my channel!

    Also I really hope you put the mp3s online for download, because I really liked the song you used for this trailer.

  • Amazing music.

  • At the seasons thing... he probably can't specify a release date as a month yet, come on.

    This will be awesome, regardless of what season it comes out in.

  • Stunning. Can't wait for more.

  • i already consider myself extremely awesome people but it's nice to hear it again

    ;)

  • love your score...

  • Wait! but winter has already passed in 2008! Lol, at least in the southern hemisphere hehehe.

    If this documentary is aimed at everyone all around the world, not just in your country you should avoid using seasons when talking about dates.

  • most countries lay in the nothern hemisphere, so comeon

  • You should probably avoid pedantry. Look at his profile, look at where he lives, and then work out when winter will befall London. You now have an accurate estimate for WTTU.

  • I'm just pointing it out because there are many ways to express a date, so you might as well use one that is more 'correct.' I'm not trying to be pedantic just trying to raise consciousness a bit.

  • This is going to be awesome. The Feynman part almost chokes me up. The music is great too!

  • Yeah, Feynman was one of a kind, a true Scientist, a man among men. This country, this planet needs more men and women like him.

  • I am REALLY looking forward to this. The images are beautiful, the series sounds awesome, and you're a fantastic musician, AW. (I'd buy your album if you made one.) I'm going to spread it round as much as I can. Thank you so much for doing this. I hope one day I'll have the chance to do something similar. Until then I'll stand in awe of you and eagerly look forward to Welcome to the Universe. And you HAVE to make the soundtrack available for download when the series is done. ;) Best of luck!

  • I bet this is gonna be awesome!! If this music is a sample of the original score, then I will watch it just for that.

  • Great message, great project, and great music! I'd love to see and hear more.

  • Wow!

    You know, I've never been that much interested in cosmology. That is, until you came around.

    Your videos show how truly magnificent this universe is and I look forward to seeng this series!

  • "the truth is so remarkable"

    haahaa awesome.

  • wow very good quality

  • Impressive.

    You can count on me!

    Excited and eager to see it!

  • I really look forward to it..

    BTW great score!

  • Great score, AW.

  • u know when i took lsd, i couldnt pass the frontier of ....... u see what i mean.... i was hartbroking... tbh.

    The universe... ahhhh such a big thing... its unbelievable.. i am hurting cuz i dont know the truth of anything except i am here. ?

  • This is going to be magic. I can't wait. You're a legend, mate.

  • Excellent trailer! Definitely going to keep en eye out for the whole series.

  • looking forward to it :D

  • Looks fascinating...

    you damned Hemispherist. Winter 2008? Which one? ;-)

  • Too late for the southern winter 08

  • Too late for the northern one too in my book.

    Mind I get wires crossed with phrases like "next Friday" as well.

    Take care, have fun.

  • Wow, that trailer made the hairs on my neck stand on end. That music is really well put together. 5 Stars

  • awesome music. can't wait for the series

  • beautiful. great quote from Feynman. I will do my best to spread it around. I love sharing these kinds of vids.

  • hahaha, awesome signature at the end XD

    Looking forward to it. I'll spread the word once the first vid's out.

  • looks fucking awsome...cant't wait

  • Awesome score... Love the ambiance.

  • Oooh... looks very nice. Not just will this give us a great insight into the universe, but I feel as though this can perhaps push YouTube in the direction it should be headed into.

  • Nice...Should be interesting.

  • looking forward

  • Will be interesing :)

  • Amazing, cannot wait.

  • Inspiring soundtrack. I need to get my music-making hobby up and running again :s

  • The soundtrack is outstanding!

  • the scores amazing

  • This is going to be awesome! I'll finally get to learn about all the awesomeness of the physics and cosmology! Thank you!

  • Damn... sexy

  • Great stuff - looking forward to the series. Fave'd, plugged, and so on. Great music too.

  • It's incredible. Thank you for doing this.

  • I can't wait

  • This is going to be an amazing series!

    I wish I could give you 100 stars for this and each future episode, but I suppose 5 will have to do.

    I also wish I could fund the project, but I don't yet have any $ to donate; I definitely will when I'm able to though.

    Best of luck, Andy [obviously short for "Andromeda"] ^_^

  • I will be calling him Andy from now on as well.

  • epic trailer. looking forward to it.

  • HOLY HELL! *donates*

  • FIVE STARRED. SUBSCRIBED

  • LOVE the music

  • I'd be more than willing to email this to Dawkins. Though I'm fairly sure many other people already did this.

    Oh, you're also an extremely talented songwriter. Props.

  • Can't wait!!

    :D

  • I felt good after getting up today and watching this video. I'm looking forward to this wonderful series. Beautiful music score.

  • nice! can't wait to see more!!!!!

  • Wow, that's a fuckload of honors. Great job!

  • looking forward to this

  • Very promising! Can´t wait for the first episode. The music score was very good and worked well with the video clips.

  • Really excited about this series!

  • Cant wait. The music is good too.

  • Wow, what an invigorating prelude. This series is going to be a smash success.

    And you MUST give us a link to the soundtrack as you develop it. I was absolutely blown away.

  • I cannot wait!!

  • Great, can't wait to see it, the music is a little crappy though

  • the music is crappy!? :O

    I love it :D

  • Musical tastes vary, I may not listen to it on its own, but that doesn't make it bad.

    I think it's perfect for background music in astronomy vids, fills in the sensory gaps while you're not listening to any dialog. The tone is just "right" to me.

  • You're right, that was a little rude. Of course some people might like it and I shouldn't call it crappy

  • This is going to be fracking awesome!

  • I can't wait to see this! You're my hero! I... I think I love you <3

  • Holy shit, that looks awesome! :)

  • I'm looking forward to this. I'll be posting an embed of each episode on my Facebook page, among other things.

  • You are one talented and creative guy AW...not to mention knowledgeable in one of the most fascinating topics of all time.

    That I am anxiously waiting to watch this documentary series is the understatement of the century!

  • Comment removed

  • This is a great idea. I cannot wait to see what you do with this series!

  • goo goo gah gah. "think that up" (smile)

  • oops. that comment was meant for free thinkers video response "beauty of the universe"

  • Universe is amazing. And knowing all the little details of it makes it even more amazing.

    Same goes for earth.

  • When I was a christian, I thought the universe was amazing. Now that I am agnostic, the universe is much more so. Thank you for all of the great work you do.
