I love the existential narration in this movie. When we finally get out to the edge of the known universe, Philip Morrison intones, "This emptiness is normal."

It's like a cross between PBS and Jean-Paul Sartre.

Narrated by the late Philip Morrison, who hosted the PBS series _The
Ring of Truth_, in which he does simple experiments to demonstrated
why scientific discoveries have the ring of truth.  Extremely
interesting and very appropriate for parents who want to excite their
children about science.
