Many of you may remember Carl Sagan's popular Cosmos television series. The program is returning, hosted by handsome and charming nerd scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson, and it promises to be astounding! The new show, Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, will explore the wonders of the universe using cutting edge technology, advanced animation, and new modes of storytelling.
The new Cosmos is expensive and wildly ambitious. It will be broadcast in 170 countries and in 45 languages, the largest global opening for a television series ever.
In the U.K.: The show premieres next Sunday (16 March) at 7:00 p.m. and will be broadcast by U.K. National Geographic Channel.
In the U.S.: The show premieres this Sunday (9 March) at 9:00 p.m. and will be simulcast on the National Geographic Channels and the Fox network channels.
In Australia: The show premieres next Sunday (16 March) at 7:30 p.m. on Australia National Geographic Channel.
I couldn't find the information for France. Sorry!
You can get more background information in this article. I highly recommend this series.
This is a bit of a must see - it's so adorable!

Alicat, I have replied.
Feeling a bit mis. I took S's Carlton Ware plate up to the Home today. Not for the first time. She keeps asking to see it. I was setting up her birthday tea in the quiet room, her flower gifts cards etc, the birthday cake and presents. I took the CW plate out of the bag and then stupidly dropped a jar of Manuka honey. I have got silly arthriticy thumb joints. The plate is chipped and I could cry. I haven't told S but have emailed nephew to say I owe S about £200. Haven't told my OH yet. Its our wedding anniversary too:-(((
Brenda just replied
Sorry, only thinking about my own affairs and far more importantly wantto wish MARGO good luck for tomorrow!
Nice to see you, GEORGE and thanks LIMPY for the Monday smiles.
Oh Heather, I am so sorry. Please don't be so hard on yourself. Does S know that the plate is damaged and if she does, would she really want you to pay.
OH rang BT today about broadband speed increase not happening. They apologised but we were given the wrong information in the e mail they sent. It will happen this Wednesday, when the exchange will be switched over !!!
We are having one of those weeks LOL
I haven't told S about the plate, BRENDA. She probably wouldn't want me to pay, but I am so cross with myself!
We watched the programme about canal boating - so sad that Prunella Scales has been diagnosed with early dementia.
Going to close down now, good night all.
These things happen, Heather. Good Night.
I had read about Prunella Scales. It is very sad.
