An acclaimed series of science videos produced by Vega and the Open University. A series of round table discussions in which Colin Blakemore and a panel of experts discuss 'The Next Big Thing' in science and technology.

Eyes in the Skies Eyes in the Skies: How has satellite imaging improved in the last fifty years, and what are the implications of the new technology?

We are being watched. A bewildering array of sensors are remotely observing everything on earth, from crops in Africa to the car parked outside your house.  Will these aerial observations help us to save the Earth, or is science beginning to see too far into our lives?

Is There Anybody Out There? Is There Anybody Out There?: Is there life out there on other worlds, or deep in our oceans that we haven\\\\\\\'t encountered yet?

Is there life out there?  Either on other worlds, deep space, or even deep in our oceans that we haven`t encountered yet?  Our panel of experts discusses the possibilities, and if there is life, what it may be like.

The Theory of Everything The Theory of Everything: Could this mean the end, or the beginning of physics?

Video by the BBC/OU/Vega on how the universe started.  What are we and where are we going?  If we had a "Theory of Everything", we should be able to answer these questions.

 

By assembling a panel of outstanding scientists and experts in a particular field these videos ensure that a valuable perspective on an issue is developed.
