Астрономы постоянно обнаруживают новые планеты за пределами нашей Солнечной системы, и эти странные миры заставляют учёных переписать биографию нашей собственной Солнечной системы. Её возникновение — далеко не простая история о постоянных орбитах, напротив — это повесть об адском пламени, хаосе и планетарном пинболе. Это чудо, что наша Земля вообще находится здесь. Миссия автоматической межпланетной станции Юнона к Юпитеру, теория «великой смены курса» и гипотеза о былом существовании пятого газового гиганта в Солнечной системе — это некоторые из тем, рассматриваемых в данном сериале.
