76 years after Pluto's discovery and after 17 years of research and development, Nasa's new Horizon Spacecraft sets out for Pluto. Travelling at around a million miles a day, it's on a 9-year, 700-million-dollar journey to reach Pluto and review its
Pockets of sub surface gas will build up and eventually burst through Pluto's frozen surface as geysers, Will G demonstrates how even a small increase in temperature produces a large geyser. Okay,we're going to put liquid nitrogen into this plastic b
But as the landscape alters, therere new dangers. Everythings just changing now. Look, the weather is getting worse, the wind picking up. But also, this river is really widening, which means that its prime crocodile territory. There are two types of
Im in the baking heat of the Kimberley in north Australia. Out here, over 3,000 people each year get bitten by snakes. Im gonna show you what to do if you come face-to-face with one. Its an olive python. Lets just get him out here. There you come. We
It was the start of a journey that would take from the foothills of the Himalayas and end here on the plains of Northern India. His mission was to make sense of human life. For me, Its genuinely exciting that what did Buddha discovered 25 centuries a
So what was going on? I want to investigate their revolutionary ideas to understand what set them in motion.-In this episode, I'm on the trail that most enigmatic philosophers, the Buddha, the wandering seeker of truth that challenged religious ortho
Since the dawn of civilization, the forces of nature and the whims of gods held sway over humanity. -But two and half thousand years ago, humankind experienced a profound transformation. Suddenly, there were new possibilities. -This is a time nationa
But there is a second option to find ways of creating more bee-friendly enviornment. There is another reseach group at the University of Reading, who are trying a very different approach. Scientists Vicky and Jenny Wickens are investigating a way to
One of the first thing they look at is taking place in the grounds of University of Reading. They are hand-pollinating strawberry plants. It might seem strange, but hand-pollination is something that's already been trying out in southwest China, wher
So more than a third of different kinds of bees that once lived in this woodland have now disappeared. What's intriguing here is that their immediate habitat has barely changed.-But what do you think is causing that? If their habitat here is friendly
This is good honey. It's very good honey. Yeah, it's very good honey. And this is the honey from the Refuday Tegmoden. Tegmoden,... is not very far, is it? Emnh, now the distance between the hive that produce this and the hive that produce that, how

This is one of the most important experiments taking place. The one that could help us understand the degree to which research done so far is relevant to bees in the wild.-So what we know so far? There's a good arguement for saying that diseases and
That's why I'm heading to south Sussex. I've heard about an experiment happening right now to establish how much pesticide bees are really getting in the wild. So I'm joining in Professor Dave Goulson and his team to find out how they are going to do
Lin has recently become R* spokesperson in the neonicotinoid debate.-The big advantage of neonicotinoids is that you can plant the seed already treated. It means the farmer doesn't have to spray. If you've got to spray, it's very expensive. It's got
Our atmosphere is in constant motion; the moving air that causes our weather circulates between the ground and 50,000 feet. It is the sun that drives this movement. When solar energy reaches earth, it heats the surface and atmosphere, but it does so
The planet's rotation twists the air as it flows, helping form the hurricanes that lash the coasts. As moist air wells upwards, clouds become electrically charged and send lightning bolts crushing down to the earth, superheating the air to eighteen t
A single river can carry three times as much water as the entire Mississippi, they provide almost half the annual rain fall for parts of the American Pacific coast, but when they remain in one area for a day or more, they can produce violent flooding
