    Did they ever release the whole soundtrack to this series? The music is just spectacular. I know the first song is by Muse ("The Void"). However there are some other similar sounding songs by different artists scattered throughout the full series. Does anyone know where to find them at least a list of the songs they used?

    Narrated by the Gay Man ordained as the next Spock by Nimoy❤

    Wonderfully done production!!!

    That ends up having to encounter a fascinating by even Spock standards about Pluto

    Pluto turns out to be so much more than being renamed a Dwarf Planet lip synced into nomenclature by Neilly Vanilly Tyson

    Aaaanyway just a pleasure to watch with chips and dips and pizza ❤

    This trailer feels like it gives the proper amount of gravitas to the planets. These other worlds we share the solar system with are so majestic and grand, it feels like them getting the respect they deserve.

    Bro I LOVE the aligned planets at the end of this trailer and being mostly covered in shadow, with only a light source from the Sun. Makes them look like main characters for some epic adventure story, which this documentary is in a way!

    I just found this as Nova the Planets on Prime Video. I love this series!

    I think Zachary Quinto is the best narrator. The other the Planets series I’ve seen on Science channel was hosted by Mike Massamino. He’s a good narrator as well. Especially due to the fact that he’s been to space.

    I used to love science, and scientists, especially since I am one myself, but I don't anymore, even though I'm a computer scientist, and work with WHAT I KNOW TO BE TRUE. This is very much unlike today's secular scientists who admittedly "know very little" about what they profess to study. Take planetary scientists for example; in Nova's "The Planets" I started watching "Saturn" on Amazon and the very first thing they do is put someone on who states the obvious, like we don't know about i.e., "the rings", duh.

    The next thing they do is put on this young kid, supposedly a scientist, and the first thing that comes out of his mouth is basically, "the more we study Saturn the more we find out how wrong we were" and this happens throughout evolutionary science, and even more so when it comes to space, of which they know next to nothing, but get paid for knowing EVERYTHING.

    They've been studying space for over 160 years with an "evolutionary eye" and have learned NOTHING except how often they are WRONG which is every prediction they've EVER made. Period.

    They don't know how stars formed, and have never seen one do so but lie and say they have.

    They don't know how planets form, but say they do.

    They don't know how moons form, but say they do.

    They don't know where comets come from, so they invented a place – "The Oort Cloud".

    They don't know what space is made of, so they invented things – "dark matter" and "dark energy."

    They don't know how the gas giants formed so far from the sun, so they invented one – they played "pinball" with each other.

    They don't know why Mercury, which should be old, cold, and dead, and without a magnetic field, but is none of those, and has one.

    And if none of these things – galaxy clusters, galaxies, stars, planets, moons, and comets – existed, now THAT they could explain.

    And to "explain" the extreme fine tuning of the Universe and everything in it, they had to invent "infinite universes" to explain it away.

    Since dark matter and dark energy – which are called, "rescue devices" – make up 96% of the ENTIRE Universe, that means they don't know about 96% of what THEY GET PAID THE BIG BUCKS TO STUDY!

    Yet we keep buying their books – full of bull and things they know nothing about – and watching their shows – that are full of the same – while they just keep getting richer, by telling us less and less as the decades go by…

    When are we going to Wake TF UP SHEEPLE?
