Full Description

Our Fascinating Universe — Take off into outer space, a journey into unknown worlds of vast dimensions and fascinating beauty, a journey in search of answers. How did the universe come into being? What role do human beings play in it? Are we alone in the universe? Gazing into the infinity of the sky has always triggered fundamental questions. What keeps the stars and planets on their orbits? Which laws govern their paths? Was it pure chance that brought them into being or is their a higher Being behind it all? Featuring stunning space telescope images and captivating insights from leading scientists and theologians, including Alister McGrath and John C. Lennox, "Our Fascinating Universe" will take you on a journey into greater understanding. Featured experts include Dr. Arnold Benz (Zürich), Dr. Barbara Drossel (Darmstadt), Dr. Peter C. Hägele (Ulm), Dr. Alfred Krabbe (Stuttgart), Dr. John C. Lennox (Oxford), and Dr. Alister McGrath (London). Includes long version (55 minutes), short version (35 minutes), plus 40 minutes of bonus material (interviews and music clip).

Flight: The Genius of Birds — Flight: The Genius of Birds is the first film in Illustra Media’s new series, The Design of Life. Each episode explores a different realm of the animal kingdom and the remarkable biological systems that make life on Earth possible. Photographed in North America, England, Peru, Greenland, and Antarctica, Flight probes mysteries and mechanisms of a bird’s anatomy, instinct, navigation, and embryology to reveal stunning provisions essential for life in the skies. You’ll marvel at a hummingbird’s unique skeletal, muscular, and metabolic systems—all vital to its spectacular aerial acrobatics; the endurance and navigational abilities of an Arctic tern as it travels from pole to pole during the longest migration on the planet; the instinctive strategies that enable a flock of 300,000 European starlings to evade predators at break-neck speeds; the elaborate network of a million component parts that make a single feather an aerodynamic masterpiece, and much more. The poet William Blake wrote that to see an eagle in the air is to observe “a portion of genius.” In Flight, the ingenuity of a bird’s behavior and biology showcase unmistakable evidence for design, purpose, and plan. It is evidence best explained by an intelligence that transcends the natural world.

Philosophy, Science, and the God Debate — 'Science disproves the existence of God' - and thanks to high profile scientists such as Prof. Richard Dawkins and Prof. Stephen Hawking - many people unquestioningly believe it. But many scientists and other academics of the highest caliber, are challenging this 'assault on faith.' Among them are three top Oxford professors: Professors Alister McGrath, John Lennox and Keith Ward. In this series of discussions hosted by Chris Jervis, these eminent professors discuss a range of relevant subjects in eight 20-minute programs.
