This November, the PBS science series NOVA will tackle some of the most fundamental concepts of the universe. Together with theoretical physicist Brian Greene, the series will present a 4-part documentary exploring the key physics concepts of space and time, when it translates Greene's 2005 book The Fabric of the Cosmos: Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality for the small screen.
In 2003, Greene collaborated with NOVA to turn his bestseller The Elegant Universe into a documentary about string theory, which earned the 2003 Peabody Award.
The new series will broadcast on PBS channels across the country, first airing on Wednesday evenings:
