Waves of Light

[00:01.25] Why are we here?
[00:03.69] Where do we come from?
[00:07.64] These are the most enduring of questions

[00:11.93] It's a story that we wouldn't be able to tell
[00:14.65] Were it not for the one thing that connects us vividly to our vast cosmos
[00:20.00] Light

[00:23.80] Through light we can stare back across the entire history of the universe
[00:28.97] And discover how it all began

[00:32.24] See those ancient beams of light are messengers from the distant past
[00:36.88] And they carry with them a story
[00:39.56] The story of the origin of the universe

[00:44.36] Gaze up into the night sky
[00:47.36] Capture the light
[00:48.88] And read the story of the universe

[00:53.17] Isn't it a wonderful thing
[00:55.25] We are part of the universe
[00:57.51] Isn't it a wonderful thing
[00:59.63] The story of the universe is our story
[01:04.15] The story of the universe is our story
[01:07.80] Carried on waves of light

[01:10.82] Wave after wave after wave of light
[01:15.19] All the colors of the rainbow
[01:17.46] Colors of the rainbow

[01:19.66] Wave after wave after wave of light
[01:24.18] All the colors of the rainbow
[01:26.06] Colors of the rainbow

[01:29.15] Light can transport us to the past
[01:33.15] And we have become virtual time travelers

[01:37.23] Night falls
[01:38.74] Darker and darker
[01:41.74] And the universe fades into view
[01:45.54] Night falls
[01:48.40] Darker and darker
[01:50.14] Darker and darker

[01:54.96] Stars being born in distant realms
[01:59.13] Alien worlds created by gravity
[02:03.60] Stars that shine with the light of a thousand suns
[02:07.56] And vast swirling galaxies

[02:12.68] These waves of light are messengers from across the cosmos
[02:17.51] And through them, we have discovered the wonders of our galaxy
[02:23.94] Frozen in time

[02:29.54] Gaze up into the night sky
[02:32.97] Capture the light
[02:34.48] And read the story of the universe

[02:38.88] Isn't it a wonderful thing
[02:40.84] We are part of the universe
[02:43.24] Isn't it a wonderful thing
[02:45.28] The story of the universe is our story
[02:49.83] The story of the universe is our story
[02:53.50] Carried on waves of light

[02:56.51] Wave after wave after wave of light

[03:09.62] All the colors of the rainbow
[03:11.77] Colors of the rainbow

[03:14.29] Billions and billions of suns
[03:17.05] Shining in the sky
