What a beauty this ident is.
Perfect fit for programming about space and science

And hopefully lots of factual/serious programming and perhaps the odd film.

The new ident has a very nice endboard animation for trailers too. Is it officially called Discovery?

It says on Wikipedia that it is, but I'm sure there is a more reliable source out there that will confirm.

Though you may see it referred to as Space by some (I think a working title) it is officially Discovery.

I agree, it is stunning.

I think Discovery has suddenly become my favourite of the curve idents. I've watched it several times. Now when will the whole animation be posted on Vimeo or Instagram I wonder?
DeMarkay and natwel27 gave kudos

The BBC 2 idents just keep coming.

It's lovely but would like to see change on BBC1 now.

Oh my goodness, that is a gorgeous ident. I'm intrigued to see who made this one.

It's kind of funny that we were all waiting for Maverick but then this one popped up, but it's a welcome surprise.

Hopefully we will be getting more new surprise idents in the coming months!

Yep! Thought the same yesterday! Assumed they'd use Bold into The Planets as it seemed the perfect fit, expected Maverick to turn up somewhere and at 9pm my jaw dropped! Very Happy

Really want to know who made Discovery.

Eight in total were coming according to Superunion. So Discovery and Maverick are presumably the first couple.

But would 'Sparky' count as one of those eight?
