Who watches the sky for any likely threats? We start by visiting the La Sagra Observatory in Spain, in search of near-Earth asteroids. As a protection from astronomical catastrophes, a U.S. businessman builds underground bunkers. Will life be found in other planets? We shall ask children in Bogotá and find out through Spanish astronaut Pedro Duque what life is like in space. We shall also visit the largest Mexican observatory in San Pedro Martir, and get to know the project to build the largest optical telescope in the world, which will be installed in the North of Chile. We shall finish our journey at the Mexican ruins of Bonampak, where father and son will convey to us the importance of guarding the knowledge of our ancestors. ------- Chapters ▷ 0:00 - Intro ▷ 02:16 - Future of the Universe | Children of the Stars (9/10) ▷ 50:56 - Credits ------- ------- Children of the Stars is a voyage through the history of the people of America and their vision of the sky, since the earliest civilizations until the present.

The Sedna 4 Team travels to the Highlands of Costa Rica and through its lush forests to find the elusive jaguar. Due to loss of habitat and coexistence with humans, the jaguars space is becoming smaller and their protected spaces are not connected by migration corridors, rather in small scattered pockets throughout Central and South America. Because of this, jaguars have less prey and are often found preying on livestock. The team meets some of the conservationists working to help keep the jaguar population protected. Elsewhere in Panama, due to the heavy traffic that comes through the canal, a mysterious microscopic fungus has made its way into the rainforests and is killing off the frogs and other amphibians. With no cure for this epidemic, species are beginning to go extinct, so conservation has become imperative. The Sedna 4 team continues on in the Panama rainforest for a look at the 3 toed sloth on Barro Colorado Island. Residing in the canopy of the rainforest, researcher Bryson takes the team for an exclusive look into their habitat on this private research-only

How do constellations influence us nowadays? We begin our trip in Easter Island in Polynesia, in order to find out how the Pleiades Constellation marks the calendar for the people in Easter Island, then we will continue to the Strait of Magellan in Chile, to discover how the Southern Cross served as a guide to ancient sailors. We shall watch the operations of the largest telescope in the world at Paranal in the North of Chile, and nearby, in Chiu Chiu, we’ll delve into the vision of Andean cultures regarding constellations such as the Chacana. Finally, we meet two youngsters at Combarbalá who managed to save the Cruz del Sur astro-tourism observatory from dust pollution, thanks to their creativity. ------- Chapters ▷ 0:00 - Intro ▷ 02:20 - The Southern Cross | Children of the Stars (6/10) ▷ 48:45 - Credits ------- ------- Children of the Stars is a voyage through the history of the people of America and their vision of the sky, since the earliest civilizations until the present.

In this chapter, we shall travel to Chichen Itzá to find out about the knowledge held by the Mayas about Venus and the temple devoted to it: the Kukulkán. We’ll listen to a rock group, Sak Tzevul who sing about Maya concepts in ancient languages. We shall also visit the ancient Maya city of Uxmal. We then travel to the Achaya Observatory in Santiago de Chile, to take photographs of the conjunction of three planets: Venus, Jupiter and Mercury, and we shall see how the concept of Venus has inspired our arts and influenced the theatre. We shall also visit the Death Valley in California, the hottest environment on Earth, similar to that of Venus. Finally, we shall get to know the Venus Project, an initiative that seems almost like science fiction, whose goal is to re-think the cities for the future. ------- Chapters ▷ 0:00 - Intro ▷ 02:19 - Venus | Children of the Stars (3/10) ▷ 50:00 - Credits ------- ------- Children of the Stars is a voyage through the history of the people of America and
