Professor Jim Al-Khalili investigates the science of gravity in this 90 minute programme.
For some people, the scientific advances of the last few centuries seemed to push God out of the picture, but modern physics has opened the world up in quite extraordinary ways, almost allowing God in the...
The programme examines the world of venture research. Because of its unconventional character, it is difficult to find the money to fund it. The programme traces the paths of three research projects from the...
The programme explores the world of speed skiing, a winter sport equivalent of dragster racing. The difference is that the only motor power available is the slope of the hill.This programme examines the...
Describes a new range of body scanners which obviate the need for x-rays, surgery or the insertion of instruments. Instead, they use powerful magnets to build pictures of the body so clear that everyone can...
Looks at how to apply Newton’s Laws of Motion to the real world. Shows how a computer can be used to analyse the motion of athletes and how a seemingly complex motion can be reduced into simple movements...
Examines Newton’s laws of motion through a mission of the NASA space shuttle. During the mision to repair a damaged satellite, the underlying physics is emphasised, illustrated using computer graphics.
Band 1: Examines the relationship between stellar structure and nuclear physics. Band 2: Shows the tandem accelerator at Caltech, California which is used to recreate stellar conditions in order to obtain...
In 1932 a famous experiment by J Cockcroft and E T S Watson in the Cavendish Laboratories at Cambridge resulted in the creation of the first man-made element. Shows a construction of the experiment carried...
Designed to support A-level physics courses, each programme enables students to make observations and readings as if they were performing experiments in the laboratory. Titles of individual programmes are:...
