The Miracle of Life
(60 minutes)
This Nova program is the first film record of human conception. "The Miracle of Life" takes you on an incredible voyage through the human body as a new life begins. This microscopic view of the colors and forms deep inside ourselves shows the egg as it is released by the ovary and follows the sperm from its early development and on its journey toward the egg. After the sperm fertilizes the egg, you can see the development from a single cell into an embryo, then a fetus, and finally a baby is born.
