"Boom. Science."
Been really in the mood for all these space documentaries lately. You gotta feed that existential dread, I guess.
This is what I expect from a good science documentary. It's not just showing what scientists believe to be the case it actually shows who thought of it, how they came to the conclusion and why. This is what I was missing from Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking. It's better shot too and it's just so lovely to see all the places where these scientific facts and theories came to be and an actual insight into how they were worked out.
This is how I want to learn about my incredible insignificance.

Zwicky was an eccentric, abrasive, and brilliant scientist, known occasionally to refer to the rest of his profession as "spherical bastards", which is basically anyone who's a bastard whichever way you look at him.
Gravitational lensing is the coolest shit ever
