Pioneer Commissioned To Produce 'Engineering The Universe'

Pioneer Productions has been commissioned by Discovery US to produce Engineering the Universe, a documentary series investigating how the Universe was created and how it works today.
Engineering the Universe combines interviews with the world's foremost scientists, fascinating experiments in leading research facilities, visual effects and cutting-edge CGI to give an absorbing insight into how our Universe evolved.
Each episode in the series focuses on a different topic such as an exploration into the Big Bang, the origins of phenomena like supernovae and black holes, and the latest theories of how stars and solar systems - including our own - were formed.
Pioneer Productions is a leading producer of space-related programming with previous successes including the special Journey to the Edge of the Universe, and series such as Universe and Catastrophe.
Stuart Carter, Managing Director, Pioneer Productions, said: "Pioneer has a strong heritage in informative and entertaining science-based programming, which uses the latest expert research and visual effects to examine the world around us. Engineering the Universe will open up the wonders of the cosmos in a fascinating and accessible format for Discovery's US audience."
