In this stunning Emmy-nominated release from PBS, acclaimed physicist and host Brian Greene lets viewers in on a secret: we've all been deceived. Our perceptions of time and space have led us astray. Much of what we thought we knew about our universe - that the past has already happened and the future is yet to be or that our universe is the only universe that exists - just might be wrong. In The Fabric of the Cosmos, Greene takes viewers on a mindbending reality check and journeys to the frontiers of physics to see how scientists are piecing together the most complete picture yet of space, time and the universe. With each step, audiences will discover that just beneath the surface of our everyday experience lies a world we would hardly recognise - a startling world far stranger and more wondrous than anyone expected.
