Faszination Universum

Der Tod der Sterne (1x3)

Udgivelsesdato: Dec 07, 2003

Nothing in the universe is eternal. The view into the quiet night sky deceives us about the true processes in the depths of the universe. On a journey through the universe we encounter exploding stars, white dwarfs as remnants of red giants and swirling plasma streams. In addition, the universe continues to expand and we can look deeper and deeper into its evolutionary history. Why this is so and what surprises are everywhere in the universe, shows Joachim Bublath in this episode on his exciting journey through space and time. The death of the stars affects us on earth in a special way, because even the sun is only a star and from this glistening gas ball, we can learn a lot about the life cycle of the other unreachable stars. Ultimately, our Milky Way will be the depressing predictions of astronomers alone in the universe, surrounded by the solitude of the dark universe. Dark energies and dark matter are dramatically changing the fate of the universe.
