Deserts and Dunes, Cliffs and Canyons. Although Mars is certainly an alien wasteland, it is a planet with terrestrial formations remarkably similar to those found on Earth. Landing a spacecraft on Mars is no easy task given our limited knowledge of the planet. The difference between success and failure can rely on the most minute detail.
The gas giants of the outer solar system, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune represent a very different kind of planet, with exotic atmospheres, liquid interiors and even rings. Looking beyond, to the outer fringe of our solar system where Pluto resides, we may find the history of the solar system preserved in a deep freeze.
Los dinosaurios dominaban la Tierra hace más de 160 millones de años. ¿Qué causó su extinción? que podría haber aniquilado criaturas tan poderosas y fuertes? Este increíble documental lleva al público al corazón del acontecimiento más dramático de la historia de la Tierra: una inmersión total y emocionante, mega tsunamis, terroríficos meteoritos, frente a los terremotos, erupciones volcánicas, tormentas de fuego, lluvia ácida y un invierno nuclear escalofriante.
Cuando nuestros ancestros emergieron del agua, desarrollaron características anatómicas revolucionarias que nos permiten hoy interactuar con el mundo: capacidades auditivas, cognitivas y motoras que transformaron radicalmente nuestra existencia como especie.

Dos hombres, un trineo y un pájaro muerto avanzan sin destino.
Los mamíferos han dominado todos los entornos de la Tierra, pero hoy el planeta cambia más rápido que nunca. Los mamíferos deben cambiar con él para tener una oportunidad de sobrevivir en ésta, la nueva naturaleza salvaje.
The blueprint is provided by nature or, to be more precise, beavers with their stream fortresses. Dams. They allow the controlled irrigation of agricultural land and produce drinking water - but, above all, they prevent flooding. They are the reason for some of the biggest relocation exercises in history. In today‘s energy-hungry times, dams with their turbines are becoming increasingly important for generating electricity. Great Inventions looks at controlled irrigation, sunken cities and hydropower.
Glass is probably as old as the earth. It is found in nature, where it is created by volcanoes and lightning strikes. Today, glass is an extremely versatile high-tech material. Gorilla Glass is unbreakable, fibre-optic cables are flexible, solar cells are becoming transparent, and glass can now be used to store energy. And glass is becoming smart. Great Inventions asks whether the first plaster made of glass, with built-in personal bio-information for faster healing, will be produced soon.
Es un mundo frío lleno de misterios y secretos helados; desvelar cómo el deshielo podría tener consecuencias catastróficas, por qué millones de criaturas diminutas prosperan en un glaciar de Alaska y cómo realizar un rescate imposible para salvar vidas.
Massive cuts into Earth's landscape create some of the most compelling and majestic formations; exploring how weather and geology combine to form vast canyons, from Arizona's arid Grand Canyon to the ocean's deepest depths.
Experts uncover truths behind some of the world's greatest wonders.

¿Qué ocurrió el 20 de junio de 1500? Isabel I de Castilla dictó una orden pionera que declaraba a los indígenas americanos como vasallos libres de la Corona, prohibiendo tajantemente su esclavitud y ordenando la liberación de los capturados.
The first condoms were made from the air bladders of fish by Greeks on the island of Crete some 2000 years BC. Later, during the Middle Ages, for a long time the ends of sheep‘s appendices were used for protection. Casanova is the most famous person to have used small linen bags. But it was only when Charles Goodyear invented vulcanisation that condoms really caught on. Great Inventions looks at an innovation with far-reaching implications for society, provoking scandal on the one hand and offering freedom and protection from diseases on the other.
TV is a medium that stimulates the imagination, arouses curiosity, promotes education and allows millions of people to participate in major events. Three men were involved in the invention, a farm boy who produced an electronic image, Charles Jenkins from San Francisco who used moving silhouette images and the Scottish inventor John Logie Baird, known by historians as the father of modern television. Great Inventions brings the story of television to life with spectacular images such as the moon landing in people‘s living rooms.
Two lovers are forced to split up after they scam the wrong people.

Sigue de cerca a los ingenieros de la NASA mientras trabajan contrarreloj para construir y lanzar el cohete más grande del mundo, diseñado para llevar de nuevo a seres humanos a la Luna y preparar el camino hacia un viaje aún más ambicioso: Marte y más allá.
Where and how are we going into space post Space Shuttle? Further travel in space is inhibited by the challenges of gravity wells and the science and cost of developing vehicles that can transcend them. How can the moon possibly help with this problem and move space exploration to the next level?
Right now, we know there is water on the Moon. But how much water? Is water largely at the poles? These are Strategic Knowledge Gaps that scientists are working to fill in, and a Resource Prospector robot will be launched to the moon in the 2020's to look for the presence of water..
El SLS es un enorme cohete que es clave para llevar a un humano a la Luna en los próximos años.
