On July 23rd, 2012, a massive eruption on the sun hurls a colossal cloud of solar matter into space. It’s the most severe sunstorm in 150 years. Fortunately, the Earth is not in the direct path of this solar ejection. But it’s only a matter of time before a violent solar storm hits us. When these cl

Madeira - Portugal's autonomous island in the Atlantic Ocean, is closer to the African coast than to the mother country Portugal, from which it is separated by about 900 kilometers. The island's name comes from Portuguese sailors who claimed the uninhabited isle for themselves in 1419. Madeira means

The nature park is the largest protected area on the Iberian peninsula. In the mountain range we accompany the young scientis

What would happen to the mountains without water? They would turn into deserts, devoid of life and vegetation. But there are very few mountains without water on our planet. They take care of this themselves, creating their life’s element and taking water directly from the sky by entrapping the cloud

Lofoten is the rugged archipelago in the Norwegian Arctic Ocean. Whoever arrives here is really at the end. Moskenes is the end of the line, and anyone who wants to go further needs a boat or a plane. The only way to get to the open sea is via the Maelstrom, which is quite dangerous. On the outermos

The Congo, mighty and deep like no other river - yet still a retreat and a habitat for several of our world's strangest animals. Our closest relatives live deep inside the dense jungles: three of the four giant ape species have made the Congo basin their home. Rich in extraordinary footage, the seco

The river that swallows all rivers - this is what the natives call it. In reality, the Congo, when considering its water masses, is the second largest and the deepest river in the world. At its source in the north of Zambia, it starts out as a mere trickle, but on its journey westwards it grows and

Sardinia is the second-largest island in the Mediterranean.

After an unusual mass reproduction of bark beetles in the nineties, thousands hectares of old spruce forest were destroyed. Soon after, a new, healthier forest started to grow – a new primeval forest. Within a few years, in place of the former monoculture, a diverse forest developed, rich in spruces

But many of the dangers are man-made: robbers or terrorists lie in wait for travelers, and tough labor pressures, social hardship a

Roads are much more than just gray strips of asphalt that allow us to travel and trade. For centuries they have been lifelines of mankind, full of stories and history - and in certain countries and areas they also hold great dangers, much human suffering and death.

Corsica looks like an alpine landscape in the Mediterranean, an island with dramatic rock formations, romantic bays and proud inhabitants who see themselves first and foremost as Corsicans and only then as French. The Greeks in ancient times called the island Kalliste: the beautiful. We explore this

In the heart of Europe lies Switzerland. It’s a surprisingly big little country: small in area, but big on natural beauty. And, like its many languages and cultures, its scenic diversity is something really special, too: from mighty Alps, dense forests and lush green valleys, to mysterious moors and

A few thousand years ago, there were bare moraine ridges and barren meltwater valleys here. A landscape born in the last ice age, characterized by the edge of the Alps, gentle hills, moors, and lakes. And by cultural richness, not only on the islands in Lake Chiemsee, with their famous monasteries a

Three times in the past two decades, the Chiemsee area has experienced "once-in-a-century" floods. Climate, wildlife, and landscape have changed, and it seems this transformation is accelerating. Species living in the flood zones are developing sophisticated survival strategies. Knot ants, for insta

Why don't you do something sensible? - Tim, Michael and Dennis have heard this sentence more than once since their school days when they professed their dream jobs: Artist, photographer, filmmaker.

New Hampshire has only 19 kilometers of coastline and short summers, all the more reason Shauna Fraser takes every opportunity to be by the sea. In the sheltered harbor of Rye, Shauna also targets inner attitude with yoga on a paddleboard.

This is the story of an incredible adventure: a young woman from Norway moves into the wild and joins the last Bushmen hunters in Namibia.
