Still, he had great enthusiasm for science and cosmology, and that enthusiasm was infectious. There are many other great cosmology series around, such as The Universe Story, which are more up to date. Many are on the Discovery Channel(s).<br /><br />MarcusMarcus T.

Perhaps I could have made it clearer in the post, the appreciation of the grand cosmic scale of things can change us for the better.
