Mars has fired our imagination for thousands of years. The tantilizing possibility of life has made it the most inviting planet in our solar system. It is the only other place that man may one day call home.

The interface between Earth and space is the Ionosphere, a region of rarified gas and charged particles. It is very important for radio communications, radar, satellite signals and global positioning. Yet we know so little about it.

Mars sparks our curiosity like no other planet because it is so reachable. Despite having landed there, most of the information we gather is still done by instruments in the planet's orbit.

Throughout history, our nightly view of the universe has fueled our collective imagination. When it comes to the Big Bang, not even the most creative work of imagination can rival what science has revealed about the birth of the universe.

This is a series packed with space stories and information about our universe covering what we can see, how we can live in space and what science tells us about the past and the future as we journey inside out of space.

Neil Armstrong has stamped his place in History by becoming the first person to walk on the moon.

Project Gemini: Docking and EVA - In the final phase of the Gemini program NASA struggles with docking and spacewalks. Curiosity Roving Mars - On the surface of Mars the Curiosity rover is changing the way we think about the red planet.

Interviews with Apollo 8 astronauts, their wives, mission control staff, and journalists give true insider's perspective to the space race of the late 1960's.

Gravity keeps us on the ground and the planets in their orbits, yet we only notice it when it's not there. In space we cheat gravity; falling just as fast but missing the ground. Now this fundamental universal force is slowly giving up its secrets.

From the beginnings of our solar system 4.5 billions years ago, there remain many clues to reveal its evolution. Remnant debris, asteroids, and comets are what's left of the building blocks to our celestial neighborhood.

Our understanding of the cosmos is limited by the amount of time we have to see it. Fortunately, computer simulations can help us see how galaxies interact over millions of years, and even how dark matter structures the universe.

The key ingredient to life in the universe is water. Until recently we thought Earth was the only place in the solar system to have any water at all. Now that probes are peering around nearby worlds we are finding that is just not the case.

Project Gemini Advances - NASA refines the techniques needed for rendezvous. Cassini at Saturn - In the Cassini probe's final years of activity, its handlers are asking it to do more complex and risky assignments.

The Beginning of the End - After the first Moon landing the Apollo science program was about to start in earnest but people were losing interest. Apollo Gets Complicated - New technology is added that extends the reach of the Apollo program.

Project Gemini Commences - Did Gemini give the US a lead in the space race? Venus Express - The last days of ESA's Venus probe. EMU - NASA's Extravehicular Mobility Unit. Deep Space Communications - ESA's worldwide network of giant dishes.

The next 12 months will see an intense rise in flight tests, demonstration launches and high priority flights. Some are on time others are not. We check the flight status of some of this new hardware and these new capabilities.

The Amazing Cassini spacecraft and its sibling lander, Huygens, have now concluded their scientific studies, bringing back years of data. Now, Juno piercing the cloak of Jupiter and her distant relative New Horizons at the edge of the solar system.

We have been observing Earth for 40 years now, in the last 20 we have focus with intensity on the planet with new technologies and capabilities, we have accumulated a mass of data that is now revealing a complex and ever changing living planet.

In this episode, hear first hand testimonials and dialogue from the incredible men who walked on the moon. Incredible footage and photos give a unique and beautiful experience of their data collection process and journey home.

Beyond Earth Orbit - The Apollo program takes bold new steps. IXV Re-entry Vehicle - Europe is working to perfect a re-entry vehicle. Galileo Satellites Lost and Found - Navigation satellites go into incorrect orbit.

Astronauts and Cosmonauts train and study for years to work and live aboard the International Space Station. With this wealth of experience and insight behind them what do they think when they return to Earth?

Space is vast, yet it is full of collisions. Gas and dust electrostatically flock together, and gravity takes over coalescing grains into rocks. Those rocks become boulders, then asteroids colliding again and again, striking planets and each other.

Does our society have the capacity to live up to Star Trek's optimistic vision for humanity's future? William Shatner takes us on a journey to find out whether art has imitated life in the years since the world-renowned TV series premiered in 1966.
