Science on primetime! Tell your families, your friends, and your co-workers to prepare for a mind-blowing trip through the Cosmic Calendar when Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey premieres on Fox Sunday, March 10. It's the 21st century take on the classic PBS series Cosmos, which first aired in the early '80s with Carl Sagan as the guide to the mysteries of the universe. In 2014, it's the perpetually cool astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson (seen here) hosting viewers through the dawn of space and time as seen through blockbuster special effects and graphic-novel-style animations. Plan your Sunday nights around it.

The team behind Wonders of the Universe is bringing their breathtaking 3D imagery, HD video, and expert narration by professor Brian Cox to Wonders of Life ($5) for the iPhone and iPad.
