- (Astronomers series, Part 3) How, from the intense heat and chaos of the Big Bang, did the universe come to be the way it looks now? Follows American and Japanese astronomers who seek to measure cosmic background radiation--the heat remaining from the Big Bang--by launching rockets and satellites above the earth's atmosphere. Their results contribute significantly to research into the origins of the universe. Also meet two astronomers who are mapping the universe in 3-D and discovering that galaxies have formed into gigantic groups, such as the "Great Wall" of galaxies which is 500 million light years long.
