    So Saturn was our saviour by reigning in Jupiter and Jupiter ends up as our protector by hoovering up all the dangerous garbage rock, nice to have big brothers.
  • This is one of the most epic space documentaries I've ever seen the animations, musical score, and storytelling all combine to make it truly special. Absolutely breathtaking.
  • @Alan-mm1re
    For anyone who r going to watch this, I suggest u watch this with headphones or surround sound systems. The Sound effects and music are the masterpieces by themselves! Goosebump guaranteed! 🤯
  • @Bish_karma
    Shout out to the camera crew that went ahead of all the satellites to catch footage of them passing by each planet. I appreciate you.❤
  • Press F to pay respects to Pluto that used to be the 9th Planet 😩
  • @ersan_yilmaz
    Before watching it, I thought this was a regular space documentary about eight planets in our solar system. But you guys proved me wrong. This is one of the best space documentaries that I've seen. It's amazing that it's free.
  • @Xynox136
    I don't know why but this whole documentary the way it describes the planets is as if they were gods above our celestial planes, fighting amongst one another, casting asteroids, shaping our environment and saving us from destruction... Non the less great documentary!
  • @rawrice3096
    My favourite part of this doco is at 49:04. Her enthusiasm for describing Saturn’s rings is captivating.
  • I've watched this for the 5th time already. The narrator voice and the out-of-the-world sound are way beyond my imagination.
  • @daxota_6750
    I love how mysterious space is, I wish I could be around 1,000 years from now to see how far we've progressed
  • @emm._.
    New found appreciation for Saturn. Bless saturn for stopping Jupiter from absolutely wrecking our chances of sitting here and watching this video.
  • @doktafari
    As a lover of nature I'm deeply overwhelmed by this celestial story
  • This is so calming watching in bed late at night.. I just passed my CDCII exam in addictions counseling tonight! Blessings from NP, Alaska🫶
  • @udm1736
    Every time I watch a documentary like this, I marvel on how much had to go right and what were the mathematical odds that life on earth what would be possible
  • @xIDSxGenocide
    The animation and presentation of this is absolutely incredible. Kudos
  • @quirkygirlboss
    The animations are beautiful, probably as realistic as it gets. Fantastic work BBC.
  • The lady talking about the ripples that the shepherd moons make was so freaking adorable. It's so awesome to see someone that in love with their job (which is understandable considering what she does)
