改变历史的天气第一季
286气象条件在日常生活中影响着每个人,有时还会影响改变历史进程的事件。 我们喜欢相信我们是自己命运的主人,我们的生活是有意识的选择、决定和计划的结果。但纵观历史,战争的胜利和文明的生存往往依赖于一些完全不可预测和完全超出我们控制的东西:天气。 严重的干旱、暴雨、极端寒冷和不可预测的风是大自然最强大的力量之一,并在历史上创造了戏剧性的转折点,来自历史遗址和文明的证据表明,对天气的错误预测往往会产生令人震惊的后果。 这部迷人的纪录片系列使用了史料素材,电脑动画重建和专家的见解,揭示了历史事件的形成,包括雷雨保护美国国会大厦,它如何决定了泰坦尼克号的命运,以及俄罗斯的冬天如何让拿破仑失去了一个帝国,玛雅文明的毁灭,以及美国挑战者号航天飞机爆炸等等重大的历史事件。 第1集 兴登堡号坠毁(Crash of the Hindenburg) 第2集 宾夕法尼亚致命烟雾...未知 -

大陆的崛起
412非洲,人类诞生的地方。20万年来,人类一直在这辽阔大陆上安身立命。这块位处世界中央的不动陆地,似乎自盘古初开以来就一直存在。但事实并非如此,科学家正逐步拆解,非洲大陆的惊人历史。只要找对地方,就会发现许多有关线索,揭示非洲大陆不为人知的动荡岁月。从失落已久的远古大陆分裂出来,非洲见证了开天辟地的威力,一股力量亦令这片大陆面目全非。这段沧桑岁月,带来了非洲大陆今天的种种面貌。野生动物,贫穷与财富,甚至古文明。现时非洲大陆处于转变的关头。那股创造出这片大陆的力量将会摧毁它 。 澳洲,它在我们印象之中是偏远孤绝。看似千百万年恒久不变,但其实澳洲有一段截然不同的历史。科学家开始探索钻研,在炙热的沙漠焦土下,发现到一些能揭示过去的蛛丝马迹。它们写在石上,藏于大地中,我们无意中找到一些很特别的东西。令人非常兴奋,甚至在现存的动物身上。这些线索揭示出澳洲与别不同,... -
地平线系列:宇宙大爆炸之前
818历代科学家都在被“宇宙中的万物到底从何而来”和“宇宙是如何诞生的”的这两大难题所困扰。近一百年,我们似乎找到了答案:宇宙是在过去有限的时间之前,由一个密度极大且温度极高的太初状态演变而来的,并经过不断的膨胀与繁衍到达今天的状态。由此宇宙大爆炸一说,得到了当今科学研究和观测最广泛且最精确的支持。 然而这一等同于科学事实的理论,却遭到一些科学家的质疑。他们相信大爆炸并不是宇宙真正的开始,我们的宇宙在此之前就可能有过生命迹象。这个可能会严重影响、甚至颠覆当今宇宙学支柱的理论,到底成立与否?就让我们共赴此次未知的极限之旅,去探索这个令人眼花缭乱的深奥谜团——宇宙大爆炸之前,到底发生了什么。未知 -
黑洞:终极极限
183Black holes stand at the limit of what we can know. To explore that edge of knowledge, the Event Horizon Telescope links observatories across the world to simulate an earth-sized instrument. With this tool the team pursues the first-ever picture of a black hole, resulting in an image seen by billions of people in April 2019. Meanwhile, Hawking and his team attack the black hole paradox at the heart of theoretical physics-Do predictive laws still function, even in these massive distortions of space and time? Weaving them together is a third strand, philosophical and exploratory using expressive animation. "Edge" is about practicing science at the highest level, a film where observation, theory, and philosophy combine to grasp these most mysterious objects. -
