Stephen Hawking and the Theory of Everything

Originally broadcast on Discovery Science under the title Master of the Universe, this compelling documentary finds celebrated theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking exploring recent progress towards a unified theory about the nature of the universe in common, everyday vernacular. Clever computer graphics and easily identifiable analogies ensure that everyone will understand Hawking's innovative hypotheses as other high-profile scientists weight in with their thoughts on black holes, supersummetry, string theory, and the ever-elusive M force. In addition, Hawking also discusses his lifelong battle with Lou Gehrig's disease and the challenges of being locked in a ravaged body as your brain struggles with some of the most complex questions in the universe.
