For centuries we have dreamt of reaching the centre of the Earth. Now scientists are uncovering a bizarre and alien world that lies 4,000 miles beneath our feet, unlike anything we know on the surface. It is a planet buried within the planet we know, where storms rage within a sea of white-hot metal and a giant forest of crystals make up a metal core the size of the Moon. Horiz...
人们总说宇宙很大，但是它到底有多大？科学家制定了一项雄心勃勃的计划，要画出一幅完整的宇宙地图。然而在可观测宇宙中，有1700亿个类似银河系的星系，不单这些星系在移动，整个宇宙也并非静止不动，甚至有科学家认为，在我们的宇宙以外，还存在着无数个宇宙。究竟宇宙有多大？怎样才能画出它的全貌？研究人员借助最先进的天文观测设备，调动整个小镇的普通居民展开人工作业，以事实验证前人的理论，并得出了震惊世界的结论。
Is your smart phone making you stupid? Can you make yourself cleverer? The Great British Intelligence Test measures the brainpower of the nation in one of the largest intelligence experiments of its kind. Devised with leading scientists at Imperial College, London, over 250,000 people around the nation have taken part so far - revealing important new science about the nation’s ...
The team investigate the use of modern medical technology to scan Egyptian animal mummies from museums across the world. By creating 3-D images of their content, experts are discovering the truth about the strange role animals played in ancient Egyptian belief. This episode of Horizon meets the scientists working in Egypt who are exploring the ancient underground catacombs wher...
Gene editing is transforming medical research and could deliver new treatments and cures for diseases. It also gives scientists control over evolution, allowing genetic changes to be forced through species. 基因编辑正在改变医学研究，并可能提供新的治疗和治疗疾病。它还赋予科学家对进化的控制权，允许通过物种强制进行基因改变。
发现世界海洋里满是塑料垃圾后，这名纪录片导演调查了该污染对环境的恶劣影响。
It a documentary about how babies grow up and shows their steps of growing up to a toddler.
本部纪录片是BBC地平线系列推出的一档，以探讨烹饪对人类进化演变起到何种影响为命题的纪录片。烹饪对于人类进化的影响之大，可能超乎所有人的想象。作为地球上唯一懂得烹调食物的物种，到底是聪明才智让我们学会此项本领，还是我们仅仅是继承了祖先的成果呢？此刻我们的盘中餐，就是我们和祖先最直接的联系。没有它们，人类就不可能进化为优势物种。 本期纪录片就是从奠定人类发展史的肉食开始，追溯到我们的祖先是如何改变他们的饮食结构，并掌握用火烹调食物的。在漫长岁月中的演变和进化，使得解剖学和神经学得到了飞跃性的进步。烹饪，这对于人类进化起到举足轻重作用的技能，让我们从远古的树林走进当今现代的厨房。
Something weird seems to be happening to our weather - it appears to be getting more extreme. In the past few years we have shivered through two record-breaking cold winters and parts of the country have experienced intense droughts and torrential floods. It is a pattern that appears to be playing out across the globe. Hurricane chasers are recording bigger storms and in Texas,...
过去200年，人类一直在努力想办法控制重力。但在20世纪90年代中期，英国飞机制造商BAE系统公司启动了一个具有里程碑意义的项目。该项目被命名为“绿光计划”，目标是将一些科幻情景变成现实。无独有偶，在大西洋彼岸，美国国家航空航天局在同时期启动了突破推进力物理学计划。该计划与新物理学的潜在空间应用有关，包括“超光速旅行”和“曲速推进”等概念。通过回顾这些过去的项目和展望未来的项目，《地平线》对科学家们痴迷的重力控制进行了探索。飞行汽车和星际旅行仍然只能是梦想吗？
In this festive special, chefs Gordon and Gino will lay on a spectacular banquet for the heroes in Britain. Working against the clock, they'll be assisted by a number of celebrities as the teams compete to serve the most impressive Christmas menu. Charming headwaiter Fred will not only be tasked with running the service but he'll be wrangling the results from our deserving dine...
Drones are transforming our world. We use them to deliver our medicines, clean our skyscrapers and even fight fires. But there is a dark side to this airborne revolution, from a shocking rise in drone-plane near misses above our heads to last year's sustained drone disruption at Gatwick – Britain's second largest airport – that ruined the Christmas plans of 140,000 people and c...
忘掉大爆炸吧！所有关于宇宙诞生的赞誉都给了它，而实际上大爆炸的即刻结果是一片漆黑和虚无。那时的宇宙没有恒星，没有星系，只有一团气体；这是宇宙历史上的黑暗时代。然而，在这样的状态持续了一亿年之后，一个真正的剧变时刻来临了。这是第一批恒星形成的时刻，宇宙第一次被点亮的时刻，宇宙的最初结构和生命的第一批原料诞生的时刻。寰宇初曦，创世纪的真正时刻。
Remember when everyone wanted to be in The Strokes or look like Karen O? Then this is the film of the year for you! We’re in New York in the early ’00s. Rock n’ roll had long since been declared dead and buried when a tsunami of young bands suddenly swept across the city and up the charts everywhere, setting a new standard for urban cool. In a kaleidoscopic journey with an eye ...
