Episode 13 - This episode is the historic television declaration of the urgent need for a planetary perspective to meet the madness of the nuclear arms race. The tragic story of the martyrdom of Hypatia, the woman scientist of ancient Alexandria, is told. We retrace the 15 -billion --year journey from the Big Bang to the present- a planet earth infested with 60,000 nuclear weapons. But now we are in the midst of a stirring worldwide revolution, becoming bound up into a single global community. Episode 409: A dialogue - In a thought-provoking hour, Ted Turner and Carl Sagan discuss the issues that are vital to the survival of our species on the earth: pollution, the greenhouse effect, and nuclear weapons - all problems with catastrophic global consequences. Dr. Sagan then explains the many benefits of our space program, the fascinating possibility of time travel, and our search for life on other worlds. |
