Colour: The Spectrum of Science
- Synopsis
- Documentary series presented by Helen Czerski. Just 15 colours tell the entire story of Earth, life and scientific discovery. The series explains how each of these colours occurs, unlocking the mysteries of nature and the forces that underpin the Universe. More than any other planet, the Earth is awash with colour. With its flowers, oceans, rainbows and vast array of animal life, our planet stands out from the blackness of space as a multi-coloured jewel. Our eyes allow us to experience colour as an explosion of vibrant wonder.
