Stephen Hawking Master Of The Universe

Stephen Hawking: Master Of The Universe

A voyage through space and time with Professor Stephen Hawking. The series charts Professor Hawking’s quest for a ‘Theory of Everything’. This ‘holy grail’ hypothesis could explain everything from the mysteries of unimaginably vast phenomena such as supernovae, black holes and dark matter, to the secrets of an infinitesimally small sub-atomic world. A portrait of the most famous scientist in the world, Prof Stephen Hawking, and an attempt to explain his work to non scientific types.
