We breathe it every day, it protects us from solar radiation, controls our weather – it’s the atmosphere. Naked Science takes a trip from the earth to near space to understand how the earth’s atmosphere affects all life on the planet.

Mars our closest neighbor now a lifeless planet – but it may once have had water and therefore life. Naked Science investigates the red planet to learn how it was formed, how it became barren, and ask whether it ever will be possible to colonize it?

Air, water, food, electricity and fuel all the essentials to explore the solar system, this episode explores the innovative plans for astronauts to grow their own food and extract water and fuel at their destinations.

NASA and others are developing new innovative propulsion systems, Ion thrusters, solar sails and the science fiction 'Warp drive' is not as far away as once thought.

The threat of an asteroid strike is a very real danger in our solar system, mankind is now in a position to defend the planet from such an eventuality.

The Hubble Telescope is nearing its end, the replacements are ready to go, ready to peer further back in time and space than can be imagined.

In terms of the Universe, we know we don't know much, especially when it comes to dark matter and dark energy. Scientists are devoting so much of their time to discovering as much as the possibly can about this mysterious matter.

Astronauts and Cosmonauts train and study for years to work and live aboard the International Space Station. With this wealth of experience and insight behind them what do they think when they return to Earth?

Our atmosphere is an unbelievably complex machine that protects us from the vacuum of space, shelters us from harmful radiation and allows us and the biosphere to breath; we need to learn much more about it so we can better it.

For people who live on active volcanoes, life has an element of impermanence to it. There is always the fear that one day their turn will come, and their home will be in the path of the volcano.

With approximately 130 active volcanoes, Indonesia is arguably the most active place on earth. Volcanologist Tom Pfeiffer leads an expedition to some of Indonesia most remote and rarely visited volcanos.

Volcanic folklore is reflected in Mexican history. One of their ancient legends tells the story of the Aztec warrior Popocatépetl - a giant active volcano - who erupts to wake his sleeping princess Iztaccíhuatl, a neighboring extinct ice capped volcano.

13.7 billion years ago there was absolutely nothing. No space, no time, and no matter. Naked Science follows the first three seconds of creation when a speck of light appeared from nothing and rapidly expanded into an enormous Universe.

The Great Lakes are sometimes referred to as inland seas; they are the largest freshwater system in the world. Naked Science examines the early history of these amazing bodies

The next 12 months will see an intense rise in flight tests, demonstration launches and high priority flights. Some are on time others are not. We check the flight status of some of this new hardware and these new capabilities.
