3. Journey to the Edge of Universe

Site Score: 9, IMDb Score: 7 Overall Score: 16
Directed by Yavar Abbas
Year: 2008

Narrated by Alec Baldwin (Sean Pertwee in UK edition) and produced by National Geographic Channel Journey to the Edge of Universe is a tale of an imaginary journey from Earth to the edge of the universe. The authors gave themselves much freedom with the concept and filled gaps with solutions that aren’t quite possible yet, but overall, the series is fun to watch, even though its science may be “out there” on few points.

2. The Universe

Site Score: 7, IMDb Score: 10 Overall Score: 17
Directed by Laura Verklan, Colin Campbell, Tony Long, Darryl Rehr and others
Year: 2007 –
Heavily relying on CGI (as most other space documentaries do), The Universe series deals with scientific topics related to space. Although some would say that the last few seasons drifted from the original concept and blundered into UFO conspiracy theories, the earlier episodes are well worth watching. Besides, UFO conspiracy theories may not always be based on fact, but they are none the less fun to watch.
