Description

The Wonders of the Solar System - from the giant ice fountains of Enceladus to the liquid methane seas of Titan and from storms twice the size of the Earth to the tortured moon of Io with its giant super-volcanoes - is the solar system as you have never seen it before. It takes us on a journey of discovery where alien worlds from your imagination become places we can see, feel and visit.
