[00:28.81]and discover how it all began.

[01:32.96]And we have become virtual time travelers
[01:37.29]Night falls,
[01:39.36]darker and darker
[01:41.48]And the universe fades into view
[01:46.07]Night falls,

[02:03.49]Stars that shine with the light of a thousand suns
[02:07.89]And vast swirling galaxies
