Why Are We Here?

Today, science says it has found the rules which explain everything, from particles to galaxies, from genes to our minds. But the explanation comes at a cost, for the rules, some scientists say, have no meaning. Could we really be creatures made to see and seek meaning in a universe where none exists? In this series, Oxford Physics Professor Ard Louis is joined by distinguished science documentary filmmaker and presenter David Malone. They travel to India, Senegal and the United States to meet some of the world’s best physicists, mathematicians, philosophers, neuroscientists and biologists to discuss and debate questions about meaning and the nature of the universe.

This documentary captures a series of astonishing discoveries; a treasure trove of shipwrecks uniquely preserved that date back 2500 years to the Greek and Roman empires, culminating in maritime archaeology’s greatest ever wreck. A fully intact Roman wreck, perfectly preserved in the anoxic waters of the Black Sea.

Mega Disaster

The Earth’s titanic forces can rip apart the land, homes and people’s lives. This series exposes their killer characteristics and why they can be so devastating.

Volatile Earth

Throughout the history of our planet, natural disasters have ravaged the earth and threatened the very existence of mankind. In this extraordinary series, leading natural disaster experts identify the most extreme catastrophes to have hit Earth in the last 50,000 years, uncovering the dramatic reality of the world’s worst volcanic eruption, mega-tsunami, and hurricane. From the ancient debris left in their wake, scientists piece together exactly what happened. How big was the disaster, what did it destroy, and how did it permanently change our planet? Using cinema grade CGI we recreate each disaster in terrifying detail, and illustrate what might happen should these epic events occur today.
