How will this continue to advance? Will we reach out a point where we can keep regenerating our body parts forever? What will this mean for the future?
Get up-close and personal with leading scientists and innovators as they reveal how cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and discoveries will change our lives. This episode looks at interspecies communication, uncovering the progress scientists are making with high-functioning animals like dolphins and gorillas on Earth, as well as how it will one day progress into future communication with extra-terrestrials. What can we learn through communication? When we finally make contact with aliens, how will change the world as we know it?
Get up-close and personal with leading scientists and innovators as they reveal how cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and discoveries will change our lives. This episode looks at how we will have to adapt to live on Earth in the future. As our population continues to grow, and our climate becomes more extreme, where will we go? Into cities underground? Under the ocean? On the ocean? How will these new environments challenge us? What will we have to do to adapt?
Get up-close and personal with leading scientists and innovators as they reveal how cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and discoveries will change our lives. This episode looks at how “cyborg” technology is becoming increasingly common and advanced. How will this continue to evolve in the future? Will we someday choose to electively alter ourselves in different ways? How will this change our lives? How will this change what it means to be human?
Get up-close and personal with leading scientists and innovators as they reveal how cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and discoveries will change our lives. This episode looks at how new technologies may someday make it possible to live forever in digital form. Will we someday have the ability to upload our minds to the internet? Will our loved ones live on as virtual “beings” that we can interact with forever?
Get up-close and personal with leading scientists and innovators as they reveal how cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and discoveries will change our lives. This episode looks at how we can modify ourselves to develop super human traits, such as implantable memories. What else is on the horizon? Will we someday have brain implants that can insert knowledge directly into our minds? How will this change us? We will develop a race of “super humans”?
Get up-close and personal with leading scientists and innovators as they reveal how cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and discoveries will change our lives. This episode looks at how life on planet Earth can begin again after a global catastrophe. What safety nets do we have in place now to help us start over? What challenges will we face? How will we have to adapt? What happens… after the end?
Get up-close and personal with leading scientists and innovators as they reveal how cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and discoveries will change our lives. This episode looks at how we depend on AI now and how our lives will become more intertwined with it in the future. Will AI eventually become our “friend”? Are we capable of developing meaningful relationships with robots?
Get up-close and personal with leading scientists and innovators as they reveal how cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs and discoveries will change our lives. This episode looks at how virtual reality will transform our lives. How is this technology already transforming our interactions with other people? When the majority of our interactions are no longer personal, how will that impact society at large? Will we reach a point where we can no longer tell the difference between the “real” world and the “virtual” world?

Tales of the Unexpected is a new strand of provocative, confronting and thoroughly entertaining science documentaries. Each episode reveals a fascinating, sometimes awkward, and frequently unsettling world where peculiar ideas are put to the test. Come with us to where nothing is quite as it seems, where diseases are diagnosed by palm-readers, where paternity uncertainty drives the mating game, and where breasts are a toxic health hazard.
The Russian army has no shortage of weapons despite sanctions: With an arsenal mixing old Soviet stocks and modern hypersonic weapons, the country could strike Europe in minutes. An opaque network of spies, shell companies and oligarchs ensures its war capacity through the arms trade, technology theft and state-organized policy of terror.
All In Earth's 4 billion year history, nature has solved all of lifes problems, from the highest mountain to the deepest ocean. Evolution is the ultimate inventor and many of mans most clever engineering solutions have exact counterparts in nature. In three amazing episodes, NatureTech views our world with fresh eyes, where nature and technology stand hand in hand.
Stephen Hawking’s Science of the Future investigates the very latest game changing innovations. Each episode takes one area of progress and sends five top scientists out to actively test the inventions and breakthroughs that are driving it. The team explore human upgrades, the virtual world, bio-mimicry, high-tech emergency responses, and more. Featuring a wide range of examples, from advanced robotics and breathtaking digital actors, to cutting edge smart homes and electronic brain stimulation, the series reveals how science is delivering astonishing improvements to all our lives. Using the evidence they gather, the team reveals the year when each innovation will be rolled out for us all to benefit from, and Hawking then draws out his own uniquely insightful predictions about what our world will be like in the years to come.

Geologist Iain Stewart explain in three stages of natural history the crucial interaction of our very planet's physiology and its unique wildlife. Biological evolution is largely driven bu adaptation to conditions such as climate, soil and irrigation, but biotopes were also shaped by wildlife changing earth's surface and climate significantly, even disregarding human activity.
