The prog was great (as always) but left me really, really, really depressed (honestly, I still feel low now, 3 days later).


I'd dispute the programs main conclusion btw. He kept on about entropy and the universe winding down and all that, but if memory serves that result depends entriely on the amount of mass in the universe. If the mass is great enough, the universe stops expanding at some point and starts imploding again, leading to "the big crunch". As far as I'm aware, the amount of mass in the universe is currently under discussion, depending on the existance of "dark matter" and stuff*.


* like all the bits down the backs of all the sofas in the universe, that sort of thing.

EDIT: I've just remembered that I haven't yet watched the last 10 minutes of the program (we were iPlayering it) - so he may have covered the Big Crunch in that bit! Sorry.
