Let's go on a journey through the key events that have allowed humanity to discover mathematics!
Let's go on a journey through the key events that allowed humanity to discover and master: algorithms!
Let's go on a journey through the key events that have allowed humanity to discover: Chaos Theory!
Quantum physics is unlike any other theory: it throws our intuitive grasp of reality out of the window and challenges our most basic convictions.
Today, we can run climate simulations on a global scale. We have learned to control rivers and protect ourselves from flooding.
Compared to our ancestors, we have incredible power at our disposal. But what exactly is energy? Where does it come from?
Join us on a journey through the key moments that have allowed Humanity to master: electromagnetic waves!
Join us on a journey through the key moments that enabled humanity to discover plastics.
Join us now on a journey through the key events that have allowed us to better understand the world of microbe.
As far back as we can remember, Humanity has sought to defy the laws of nature.
Early in their history, humans realized that they could affect nature.
James and his brother head to Austin to sample BBQ from a blind pitmaster and live music from a blind musician, then to Houston to meet blind celebrity chef Christine Ha.
