The dawn of 8K resolution television has arrived as a Japanese television network broadcasts the first programmes in the format.  
Japan's national public broadcasting organisation, NHK, is now sending both 4K and 8K channels via satellite to viewers.
The first film shown in 8K will be '2001: A Space Odyssey' and Stanley Kubrick's classic film was scanned by Warned Bros on 70mm film negatives to produce the high-resolution masterpiece. 
8K televisions have 8,000 pixels across the screen. 
This newest resolution has four times as many pixels vertically and horizontally as current top-end 4K Ultra HD screens, and 16 times more than standard 1080p HD.
