On August 4, the much-anticipated "Wonders of the Solar System" will premier on Discovery's Science Channel.
Presenter and physicist Prof. Brian Cox will show you the hidden mysteries of our interplanetary neighborhood, as well as breathtaking sights of the planets, moons and the sun. Cox will also examine some of Earth's extreme environments to see how life has adapted, perhaps helping us understand whether life can exist elsewhere in our solar system. Short introductory videos are available.
Discovery News has assembled some of the best slide shows, articles and videos in a special Wide Angle to provide as much background information to this groundbreaking documentary series. Enjoy!
