Sir Martin Rees explores the possibility that life exists on planets beyond our own. He unveils an unsettling scientific debate that has startling consequences for us Earthlings. Everything you thought you knew about the universe is wrong. It's made of atoms, right? Wrong. Atoms only account for a measly 15% of everything that exists. The mass of the universe consists of something so mysterious and elusive that it has been dubbed "dark matter."

Scientists take a closer look at the layers of rock beneath the site of one of the largest asteroid impacts on the planet to see how many asteroids it must have taken to drive the dinosaurs to extinction. Fascinating video from BBC Horizon show 'What Really Killed the Dinosaurs?'

Technology evolves exponentially; the rate of technical progress itself is accelerating, so expect to see 20,000 years of progress in the 21st century, about 1000 times greater than the 20th century

Very intresting and scary at the same time.

Ray Kurzweil tells us about his vision of the Singuarlity—a point around 2045 when computers will acquire full-blown artificial intelligence and technology will infuse itself with biology. His theories have all sorts of supporters, detractors, and critics, but do you even remember what life was like before three-year-olds had cell phones and you actually had to remember facts instead of relying on the internet? That was only 10 years ago. If Kurzweil is right, we'll have supercomputers more powerful than every human brain on the planet combined within a few decades.
