What is the world made of? Today we know that through science man is capable of observing, examining and understanding other planets, galaxies and the universe. But how did the study of the world begin? What were the first questions and explanations given to them and how do we deal with them today? It blends theories of ancient philosophy on the birth and explanation of the world with modern theoretical and experimental physics.
