The Known Universe takes viewers from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang. Every star, planet, and quasar seen in the film is possible because of the world's most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History. The new film, created by the Museum, is part of an exhibition, Visions of the Cosmos: From the Milky Ocean to an Evolving Universe, at the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan through May 2010.

  • @inspiredsamm Um I was suggesting that God is probably not real - it was meant as a joke, I know there are aliens out there, the probability AGAINST us being the only intelligent life in the universe is masssive.

  • @aaqucnaona94 Wasteful? Who knows what---or who----is out there????? :-)

  • A brilliant video, but there is a way to make it perfect. Mute this video and open a new tab with

    The Host of Seraphim... playing

    You'll thank me when you try it out. I found this tip here some time ago and feel like it must be spread.

  • The universe as it relates to conscious life can be understood now. It is the ultimate truth; the truth that will transform mankind and the world. Google 'Truth Contest' and open the entry called 'The Present' to learn the truth. If this reaches everyone, it will turn this world right side up.
