- Embark on an astounding journey across 100,000 light-years to witness key moments in the history of the Milky Way. Using cutting-edge science, National Geographic constructs a 3-D state-of-the-art CGI model of our galaxy. Gaze into the heart of the Milky Way on the hunt for super-massive black holes. Witness as stars are born and die. Fly out and above the plane of our galaxy to understand its true shape and scour its dusty spiral arms for the possibility of life.
- Telescopic chronophotography of the 1882 transit of Venus as observed from Lick Observatory.
- Amidst the busyness of life, humanity often forgets that they are marooned on a tiny rock surrounded by the vastness of space - and even so, how beautiful that can be.
- Five astrophotographers armed with hi-tech cameras and telescopes capture the night sky in spectacular images of sparkling constellations, blazing comets and shadowy eclipses for the viewers to experience the stars as never seen before.
- In a neo-noir music video a female prisoner in Hell is looking for an escape chance to see her beloved.
- "Space Chasers," is an adventure travel documentary that explores the underground world of amateur astrophotography. The Film travels the globe documenting an eclectic group of some of the greatest astrophotographers whom are taking incredible photos of galaxies, planets and nebula right out of their own backyards.
- Nova follows cosmologists as they make the inconceivable discovery that the expansion of the universe is accelerating. This new reality forces the astronomical community to deal with the likelihood that the universe is composed primarily of dark energy.
- 201954mTV-PG8.0 (34)TV EpisodeMeet the brilliant minds throughout history, from Galileo to Edwin Hubble, responsible for creating the telescope. Today, their invention allows humanity to reach the furthest limits of seeing - 13 billion light-years out.
- Many considerations come to the forefront when planning space travel beyond the moon. Scientists are currently working on overcoming the many challenges and testing their solutions.
- Ceres was first discovered by astronomers looking for a plant to fill a curious gap between mars and Jupiter. But it wasn't very big so astronomers kept looking and began finding the larger objects in the asteroid belt. Eventually astrophotography, sky surveys and space telescopes led to the multitudes that are know today including near Earth and Earth crossing asteroids that are of particular concern for the fate of humanity.
- Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson gives the facts on Pluto and examines the controversy over whether it is a planet.
- 1974– 52mTV-G7.6 (57)TV EpisodeThis program describes the most remarkable, perspective changing discoveries in the field of cosmology in the last 100 years. Each discovery was made by scientists working with a radically new telescope.

- Spiral galaxy Messiar 65 has been undisturbed in its recent history in contract to it's companion in the Leo Triplet, Messier 66, which has many regions of active star formation.
- James McCormac explains the stellar transit process and the challenge of finding a transiting exoplanet.
- Several supernovae in Messier 83 in the past hundred years indicate it is one of the most active star forming galaxies nearby.
