It's been 50 years since man first ventured into the unknown, and the heavens are only now yielding their greatest secrets. SEASON 6 of the pioneering series THE UNIVERSE takes viewers further than ever, to the extreme edges of our solar system where chaos and catastrophe bring epic drama to the planets - including some of the most horrifying days on Earth.
Through stunning CGI, witness the birth pangs of the solar system, shocked into existence by a nearby supernova, and enduring over 700 million years of brutal bombardment by deadly asteroids; colossal cataclysms that shaped the planets and transformed their climates forever; and startling new scientific discoveries revealing a hellish history of continuous devastation on Earth. And travel to the system's very fringes to explore the possibility that the Sun has an evil twin, a monstrous star known as Nemesis suspected of causing every mass extinction in Earth's history. In signature cutting-edge style, THE UNIVERSE: THE COMPLETE SEASON SIX, available in both blu-ray and DVD, features astounding NASA footage and the opinions of leading astrophysicists to probe even more deeply into the billion-years-old story of the world beyond Earth.
A&E Home Video will release DVDs and Blu-ray Discs of The Universe - The Complete Season 6 on May 15th. Priced at $39.95 SRP and $44.95 SRP, respectively, these 4- and 3-disc sets bring you over 10 hours of infotainment, plus extras. Here's a look at the packaging for both versions:
