The Universe In 3D - Catastrophes That Changed The Planets The planets of our solar system have experienced epic catastrophes throughout their history, caused by both external and internal forces alike. In this stunning 3D special, voyage back in time to investigate the violent phenomena that profoundly shaped the planets, including Earth itself. Witness the events that transformed Mars into a barren, hostile desert; the disaster that changed Venus from a temperate climate into a hellish wasteland; the massive impact that blew Mercury’s mantle, turning it into a planetary core; a colossal disturbance that rearranged the orbits of the gas giants; titanic impacts on our largest planet, Jupiter; and how a lost moon may the explain the rings of Saturn.

The Universe In 3D - Nemesis: The Sun's Evil Twin Could there be a sinister, undiscovered star orbiting our own Sun, lurking at the edges of the Solar System? Could it be scattering killer comets through our system like clockwork every 26 million years? New scientific surveys are probing the unknown reaches just beyond our Solar System – a realm populated by giant worlds and mysterious planetoids – hunting for Nemesis, the Sun’s purported ‘evil twin’. Scientists may be on the verge of discovering this mysterious star, suspected of causing every mass extinction event in Earth’s history. In this stunning 3D special, experts employ everyday experiences to explain the Nemesis phenomenon, and why it has so far eluded discovery. From a bushfire on dry California hillside to a NASCAR race, discover how the effect of Nemesis impacts our planet and why life on Earth may in fact depend on it. Explore this fascinating theory for the first time in spectacular 3D!

The Universe In 3D - How The Solar System Was Made At 4.6 billion years old, the Solar System is our solid, secure home in an ever-changing universe. But how did it come to arrive at its current state? We trace the system’s birth from a thin cloud of dust and gas. Shocked into action by the nearby supernova, the pull of gravity and natural rotation from this exploding star spun our system into a flat disc, from which the Sun and planets coalesced. Over the course of 700 million years, the planets jockeyed for position in orbit, dodging a brutal bombardment of asteroids and comets, and eventually settling into the neat, stable system that scientists now believe may be a rarity in the universe. Explore the history of our Solar System for the first time in spectacular 3D!
