Hosted by Smith, “One Strange Rock” has Darren Aronofsky as an executive producer.
Season one explored the wonder and fragility of earth in a 10-part miniseries.
Eight astronauts shared there unique experiences of earth from a distance, including personal memoirs.
The show was renewed for second season in 2018.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, CEO of National Geographic Global Network, Courteney Monroe, said: “With the creative vision of Darren Aronofsky and the expertise of Jane Root and Nutopia, ’One Strange Rock’ stretches the traditional boundaries of science and natural history programming.
“It takes viewers on a breathtaking visual adventure that not only entertains, but also amazes and surprises”
Sharing his excitement about the show’s renewal, Aronofsky said: “With National Geographic and the wealth of talent and experience of Jane and Nutopia, we took on this ambitious project to give audiences a new perspective on our living planet.
“There was so much more we wanted to cover in the first season and couldn’t. I’m grateful we now have the opportunity to bring more of the beauty and wonder of our planet to the screen.”
