The South Pacific Ocean is
on the surface of it still a healthy ocean. We
depend on
it. Over 60% of
the world's fish catch comes from the Pacific. But
like all oceans, it
has
little or no protection, so it may not stay
healthy much longer. For the South
Pacific, this is a critical time. It's
changing in ways that. If left unchecked, could
develop into a global
crisis. Some of its residents have been through
crisis before. And
protecting the fish will ensure a
healthy ocean for all the marine life of the
Pacific. It
will require
international commitment and cooperation.

The
Road tells us stories of cities, stories of wars,
all passed on through travelers'
tales. The hardest part of the Silk
Road journey was crossing the vast expanse of
desert, called
“
The Sea of

”

intersection between the
edge of the Silk Road and starting
point of the

Road's stories is similar to counting
the grains of sand in the desert.

And so began the Californian Gold Rush.
Men came in their thousands and the city

but deep within the earth. Gold, now even more

In 1939,
on the eve of the Second
World War,
Albert Einstein
wrote a letter to
the
American President. The letter was about an
application of Einstein's famous
equation, E equals MC squared and his
fear that the Nazis could use it to build an
atomic bomb. E equals MC
squared is the symbol of Einstein's genius. It's
an
equation that sums up
one of the most powerful truths about the
universe. It combines
two
ideas, which until Einstein came along, no one had
ever dreamed could be
connected in such a powerful way. The
idea of mass, and the idea of energy.

He wasn't an easy character. He arrived in
Cambridge in 1661 after a
difficult childhood. His father had
died before he was born and his mother had
abandoned him at the age of
three. But the young Newton showed his genius at
an

what light might be made of and wanted to know how

worked, and he was

Illustrated books set out
to provide a fuller reading experience. What a
picture adds to
a story,
and what the words leave out, is key. But how
exactly does that relationship
work? Although there were
illustrated books for adults, by far the majority
were for
children. One stands out above all
others
—
Alice in Wonderland.
Words and pictures
created
a handshake on the page far greater than the sum
of the parts. And while the
audience is now mostly
young children, the combination of artist and
writer is alive
and well. The best illustrated books
form an inseparable, timeless bond that endure
long after our

Ever since I can remember, I've been
drawn to wild places. I guess it's really how my
interest in bears started. To me,
bears, more than any other creature, represent
wilderness. And more than that

itself. Brown bears once roamed across
Europe and North America
but today they're found in just a few small
pockets of
really wild land. Alaska is one of the
bears' last strongholds. In most places, bears
keep a healthy
distance from each other but these bears have
somehow learned to live
with one another. Left alone, it has

One of the
most extraordinary civilizations the world has
known disappeared.
Millions
of people died, some were savagely murdered. Why
it happened is a mystery.
This is the story of one man's search
for the truth. The Maya lived in what is today
Southern Mexico and central
America. They were deeply spiritual, worshipping
dozens of gods of the sun
and the moon, the earth and wind, fire and rain.
From the
jungles and plains
rose cities and towns, great centers of worship,

What is nothing? It's an
extremely, extremely difficult question to answer.
Because if you think about
it, wherever you look around you, there always
seems to
be something
there. Things appear almost impossible to escape
from. Even just trying
to
imagine true nothingness seems like an impossible
task. But this is more than just a
philosophical question. I have here a
box. What, then, exists inside the space in the
box? Is it really nothing?
You might wonder why this matters. It's about
reality at the
very
furthest reaches of human perception, a place
where the deepest mysteries of the
universe may be held.

Their social life reflects ours, too. The tender

discover that chimps developed not only
tools, but entire cultures which they pass on
to their young. Even
medicine seems within their grasp. Come with us on
a voyage of
discovery, a
journey into our collective past. The invention
and use of tools was
supposed to set us apart from the other
animals. Chimps make and use many tools.

150 years ago, Charles
Darwin published
“
On the
Origin of Species
”
. And in
that
one great book, he
asked the right question, and gave the right
answer. Darwin's
explanation for life on earth was so
seductive and so simple that it seems obvious
today. And yet, Darwin's
explanation of how evolution works was riddled
with holes.
Its logical
foundations were shaky. His evidence was weak.
There was so much he did
not, could not, know. Darwin trusted
that future generations of scientists would
complete his work, and
prove the essential truth of his vision, and for
150 years that is
what we
have been doing.
