Been watching "How the Universe Works" from time to time and enjoying it. Nice to hear more and more tell us that "This is what we think, but we may be wrong because the more we learn, the more we know we've been wrong."
Don't hear that sort of statement on "Ancient Aliens"....

Sometimes what you think is a gaseous bubble ends up being hot molten liquid.
