synopsis
In this episode of Cosmos, the PBS series written and hosted by eminent astronomer/author Dr. Carl Sagan, the viewer travels back in time to witness the birth of galaxies. Filmed in 40 different locations over a two-year period, the shows proved to be extraordinarily popular. In Cosmos, Episode 10: Edge of Forever, Dr. Sagan goes to India to check the Hindu cycles of cosmology. Then, thanks to computer simulation and other special effects, he falls into a black hole, only to emerge in New Mexico as he demonstrates The Very Large Array, the 27 radio telescopes listening to outer space.
