NOVA scienceNOW is changing its format with a new season that tackles some of the biggest questions on people's minds in six specially themed new episodes. We'll be pondering who we are, how we got here, and where things are going.

Premieres Wednesday, Jan. 19th on PBS (please check local listings).

]]> Welcome to Cosmic Perspective tag:www.pbs.org,2009:/wgbh/nova/sciencenow/cosmictest//48.2833 2011-01-04T18:07:23Z 2011-01-20T15:39:43Z NOVA Staff http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/mt4/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&blog_id=48&id=195 Our host, Neil deGrasse Tyson, takes a  broad view of all things earthly and astronomical. He wraps up each episode of NOVA scienceNOW with his personal reflections--what he calls "the Cosmic Perspective." These pieces are usually inspired by stories in the show.

On this page, you can watch and comment on these videos. We've posted the Cosmic Perspectives from previous seasons of NOVA scienceNOW, and we'll update with more pieces this winter, the day after each new NOVA scienceNOW program airs.

Let us know what you think.
