    Through the Wormhole

    documentary

    Hosted by Morgan Freeman, Through the Wormhole explores the deepest mysteries of existence - the questions that have puzzled mankind for eternity. What are we made of? What was there before the beginning? Are we really alone? Is there a creator? These questions have been pondered by the most exquisite minds of the human race. Now, science has evolved to the point where hard facts and evidence may be able to provide us with answers instead of philosophical theories. Through the Wormhole brings together the brightest minds and best ideas from the very edges of science - Astrophysics, Astrobiology, Quantum Mechanics, String Theory, and more - to reveal the extraordinary truth of our Universe. Every 17 minutes, someone dies from a murderer's gun; a wave of violence that political debate can't seem to stop. Humanity may come to an end if the planet's problems remain unaddressed; scientists unlock the secrets of nature to tame the elements, harness energy, and even control life. Scientists peer inside the mechanisms of aging, tamper with the cellular makeup of DNA, and imagine a world capable of curing death like a disease. Research is starting to uncover a possible hidden force in the universe. Genius lies somewhere in the human mind, bringing mathematical insight, sparking artistic inspiration and enabling some to see what most cannot. Might we augment our biology with technology to unlock the genius inside us all?
