Yes, for once a Horizon programme that doesn't have to make a big drama and have personalities fighting for 'who is right'. And while we still have the cliched shot of a scientist driving a car to the observatory/lab etc we also had them walking and riding an Austin Powers style tunnel truck!

Did you see the clip where it show's us what happens when the particals collided then it was slowed down and mapped out in to a graphic form. (now that was nice) Will Windows users ever get a "show graphic" function on BOINC for the LHC project.

I wonder if SETI had anything to do with making the pictures of all the galaxys "clear" by taking all of the "Noise" out of them .. ?

Enjoyed it lots, thanks...
