Documentaries you have to watch before your vacation ends
Is there anything more relaxing than getting home, getting comfortable, and watching a movie, a documentary, or binge-watching a series that keeps you up all night: "just one more episode"? If you want to travel without a plane ticket during these last few weeks of vacation, here's a list—admittedly very subjective—of science documentaries that have taken us to worlds as distant as they are fascinating. The best part: you can watch them for free, right now.
To begin this cosmic journey, there's nothing better than HOME . This documentary is like opening a giant window from the sky: hypnotic aerial images that showcase Earth from its endless deserts to the depths of its jungles. More than a visual delight, it's a reminder that our planet is beautiful but fragile. A clear invitation: caring for it is our responsibility.
If the vastness of Earth leaves you pondering, wait until you peer into the abyss of The Mystery of Black Holes: An INCREDIBLE Journey to the World Eaters . With simple explanations and brilliant animations, it brings us closer to those invisible monsters that twist the laws of physics. But be warned: the more you learn about them, the smaller—and more awestruck—you'll feel.
For those who dream of traveling beyond our solar system, Amazing Phenomena of the Universe is a fascinating window into the universe. Prepare to explore nebulae that resemble brushstrokes of cosmic art, distant galaxies, and impossible planets orbiting stars millions of light-years away. It's a reminder that, amidst so much cosmic violence, life in this tiny corner of the universe is a true miracle.
To complete our list, we recommend The Universe of Stars from the RTVE series The Universe . Here, the stars themselves are the protagonists: from their birth in clouds of gas and dust to their death in titanic explosions. You'll learn that they are the ones that forge the elements that make us who we are: stardust transformed into planets, into life, into us.
You don't need a telescope or a spacesuit. Just a good internet connection and a desire to explore. Let these last few days of vacation be an excuse to travel through the cosmos. Talk to you soon!
