An archive of BBC Sky At Night programmes from December 2001 through August 2008.
The cores of most normal galaxies contain black holes that are millions to billions of times more massive than our Sun. Galaxies probably also contain millions of remnant stellar-mass black holes.

The Hubble Space Telescope has discovered an extrasolar planet, for the first time using direct visible-light imaging.
For nineteen years, the Hubble Space Telescope has made some of the most dramatic discoveries in the history of astronomy but it has also helped scientists learn more about our own Solar System.

In this lecture Walter Lewin provides illuminating evidence of stars we cannot see. He describes the birth of stars, in the arms of a nebula, to their explosive or implosive ends.
Patricia Burchat expertly sheds light on two basic ingredients of our universe: dark matter and dark energy at TED2008.
