http://science.discovery.com/tv/through-the-wormhole/ through the wormhole is a great show hosted by morgan freeman, that discusses all sorts of theories about the universe, or time, or life after death, etc etc. a friend DVR'd the last one for me, which was about the theories of the shape/size of the universe. my brother and i used to boggle ourselves thinking about what might be OUTSIDE the universe, if the universe has an actual shape and boundaries. one of the interesting bits was how these two scientists (one from NASA, and one from Canada) were working independently of each other but came to similar conclusions and similar mathematical figures that lead them to theorize that there's a universe outside of ours exerting gravitational force on ours, and pulling everything off to one "side" of the universe. i can't remember their names, but it was pretty snazzy. i admit, hooray for GT -- some of those postal people are asses. but some others are pretty nice, too.
