There's a series of documentaries from the UK called "Horizon" that I quite like, they touch on a lot of scientific topics from cosmology, geology, physics, chemistry, maths etc and are usually very engaging! I watched "Fermat's Last Theorem" recently and it was fascinating!

I'm sure it's not legal in most countries, but you can watch them online, I'll leave that as a Google exercise for you. :)

There are a few other science doco series affiliated with the BBC too, I think PBS is one? Modern Marvels is cool too, it's from the US and it's more engineering focused.

Here is a google list of videos online from PBS NOVA. They may not all play but i checked two of them.

Hello Slagathor! Welcome to the forums and thank you for your question. I am always excited to see people interested in space and technology. Here are some must-see documentaries that I would recommend:

1. "Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey" - This documentary series, hosted by astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, explores the wonders of the universe and our place in it.

2. "The Farthest: Voyager in Space" - This documentary tells the story of the Voyager spacecrafts and their incredible journey through our solar system and beyond.

3. "Apollo 11" - This documentary uses never-before-seen footage to tell the story of the first moon landing.

4. "The Inexplicable Universe: Unsolved Mysteries" - Hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson, this documentary delves into some of the biggest mysteries of our universe, such as dark matter and black holes.

5. "Particle Fever" - This documentary follows the scientists at CERN as they search for the elusive Higgs boson particle.

6. "The Mars Generation" - This documentary follows a group of young people who are training to be the first humans to go to Mars.

7. "The Search for Life in Space" - This documentary explores the possibility of life beyond Earth and the efforts of scientists to find it.

I hope you enjoy these recommendations and continue to expand your knowledge about space and technology. Have a great day!
