A bold and breathtaking series taking viewers on a tour of our planet to explain what lies beneath Earth’s startling beauty and ultimately what makes our world work.

Brian Cox and Neil deGrasse Tyson's compelling exploration of what science communication is, drawing on interesting similarities and contrasts between the UK and the US. “In the UK, we have the BBC - a public serviced broadcaster, in the purest sense of the word - and its mission is to engage and bring people into diversity programming…. What worries me in the US is that when you have multiple channels (such as The Science Channel ) and those channels are “specialist”, you’re in great danger of ghettoising the audience, and you end up preaching to the converted rather that drawing in new people in and introducing them to ideas…” Brian Cox "Id like to think that what science communication might be going forward - would include more of a direct statement of relevance to how we live our lives, to the role that science plays in politics, to the survival of our species…” Neil deGrasse Tyson

Professor Cox begins his lecture around 8:45 (if you want to skip the introductions). *from 10:42 to 11:15, the video has been edited to simply use a still frame of a picture of the galaxy. This is to prevent an incorrect claim by BBC Worldwide from blocking the content in 244 countries. Thanks for your understanding! Professor Brian Cox is an English physicist, and Advanced Fellow of particle physics in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Manchester. He is best known to the public as the presenter of science programmes, especially the Wonders of... series and for popular science books, such as Why Does E=mc²? and The Quantum Universe. He has been the author or co-author of over 950 scientific publications. Cox has been described as the natural successor for BBC's scientific programming by both David Attenborough and the late Patrick Moore. This talk was based around two key areas – the importance of studying science and his passion for it. It also centered around key topics the children study as part of their GCSEs.

A panel discussion on the history of Stanley Kubrick's film, 2001 A Space Odyssey. Featuring Dr. Brian Cox, with actors Keir Dullea and Gary Lockwood. To mark the UK re-release of Stanley Kubrick’s iconic 2001: A Space Odyssey, on 30 November 2014 BBC Arts broadcast a 90-minute live discussion from the BFI exploring its influence on art, culture and science. Radio 3's Matthew Sweet welcomed to the stage a stellar panel including the film’s two stars Keir Dullea and Gary Lockwood, Professor Brian Cox and Sir Christopher Frayling. Celebrated for its breathtaking beauty, dazzling visual effects and powerful use of music, Kubrick’s film proposed a new kind of pure cinema, set a new benchmark for the aesthetic of sci-fi films and challenged audiences to contemplate its meaning. The programme was recorded for broadcast on BBC Radio 3’s Free Thinking on Tuesday 2 December at 10pm.

A lecture on the development of science of the standard model of high energy particle physics given to some of the CERN faculty for a demonstration of how this kind of complex science should be lectured to those with any level of science/physics background from laypeople to experts who want to keep up with current discoveries outside their field. Professor Brian Cox of Manchester University and contributor to the LHC's ATLAS and LHCb experiments, is one of the best public educators of physics of our time. He has a huge charisma and character to keep an audience's attention to fundamental topics in physics, keeping the sense of wonder but always keeping the real core of the subject intact - which is genuinely hard to do as in the process of teaching a subject like physics either the wonder gets sucked out and replaced with dry rhetoric or else the content gets sucked out and replaced with whimsical nonsense - Professor Cox helps create the balance in the same vein as other great popularizers of physics such as Carl Sagan and Richard Feynman. His talks are always very good and try to include as many people as possible into scientific discovery and the wonders of nature which shape our individual understanding and our civilization into new frontiers. Any of his tv series, including "Wonders of the Solar System", and his books including my favorite "The Quantum Universe: Everything That Can Happen Does Happen", co-authored by Jeff Forshaw are also must haves for any scientist young or old.

To celebrate World Space Week from 4 to 10 October 2013 we're uploading clips from Wonders of the Universe with Professor Brian Cox. With some of the world's most fascinating fossils in hand Brian considers how, but for an apparently obscure moment in the early evolutionary history of life, all the secrets of light may have remained hidden. Because although the universe is bathed in light that carries extraordinary amounts of information about where we come from, it would have remained invisible without a crucial evolutionary development that allowed us to see. Only because of that development can we now observe, capture and contemplate the incredible wonders of the universe that we inhabit.

In the last episode of Professor Brian Cox's epic journey across the universe, he travels from the fossils of the Burgess Shale to the sands of the oldest desert in the world to show how light holds the key to our understanding of the whole universe, including our own deepest origins. To understand how light holds the key to the story of the universe, you first have to understand its peculiar properties. The man who first grasped these properties was Danish astronomer Ole Rømer, who in 1676 made the first quantitative measurements of the speed of light.

To celebrate World Space Week 2013 we're uploading clips from Wonders of the Universe with Professor Brian Cox. With the theory of Black Dwarf Stars, Professor Brian Cox considers the death of the universe, a time so far in the future it defies comprehension. Brian discovers that time is not characterised by repetition but by irreversible change. From the relentless march of desert sands to the erosion of a beached freighter, the ravaging effects of time are all around us. The vast universe is subject to these same laws of change. As we look out to the cosmos, we can see the story of its evolution unfold, from the death of the first stars to the birth of the youngest.
