An Exceptional episode that will rock your mind
greatbilal30 March 2015
The episode explained in depth how the black hole creates itself and how they expand in size. The black holes were a prediction before new discoveries proved their existence.. with unlimited gravity that can pull a complete galaxies.. the black holes destroys the laws of physics.. A 10 stars is a fair deal.. the graphics.. the sound track.. the science provided are just perfect.. Also there was a brief introduction and summary about CERN. CERN is trying to explore how the universe was created and is also trying to create in the lab a similar environment as 14 billion years ago just before the Big Bang (check episode ONE)

Some good physics, lots of sensationalism

Starts off with some real science but then starts to ramp up the theatrics. If a black hole was even remotely near our solar system, we would've experienced a raft of symptoms of the gravitational force of black holes.

"Black holes are on the loose right here in our own cosmic neighborhood", yep, they are, but if they were near enough to actually impact earth in the next few million years we'd know about it now because we're looking for these things.

I'm sat here, after watching this, thinking that theres so much real science to report, on that we don't need to embellish the facts just to sell a video, but I now realise that to engage with the masses we have to sensationalise.
