The New Frontier - All Seasons
Season 1
Our modern-day itch to find out what lies out beyond our atmosphere is rising again. The frontiers of space exploration are expanding as scientists debate a range of future missions: a return to the Moon, manned flights to Mars, robotic missions to Titan and Europa, or mining asteroids. This expansive series shows that this grand quest is driven as much by technology as our attitudes toward Earth.
Season 2
Due to world events over the last twenty years and the decline in government finance; Space exploration has fallen from the media's gaze into the shadows. The explosion of private investment is helping to reshape our goals. Europe and the ESA have shouldered their burden of exploration and now Japan, China and India have all committed to launching probes to the Moon, Mars, and beyond!
Season 3
Our time has given us technology that is better than ever, and our will to explore the universe is forever pressing. Now, we have gotten better at guiding our satellites and landers, our telescopes are more powerful, and our knowledge of our own planet is growing. With these new and advanced tools, we can explore the New Frontier like never before.
Season 4
Space technology continues to grow despite the public eye being constantly drawn back down to ground level. New telescopes are allowing us to see further and more clearly than we ever have, on our constant search for earth-like planets that may hold other forms of life. Looking closer to home, missions to Mars supply us with constant information about a barren planet that may become our new home.
