Cosmos: Possible Worlds S01E03 - Harmony of the Worlds
Summary:
This episode is a historical re-creation of the life of Johannes Kepler, the last scientific astrologer, the first modern astronomer and the author of the first science fiction novel. Kepler provided insight into how the moon and the planets move in their orbits and, ultimately, how to journey to them. It's also a story about the scientific process of discovery, and how the search for truth is never easy but always worthwhile.
