Description
Today we can hardly imagine life without electrical power - it defines our era. It creates human connections. It is the lifeblood of civil society. But how did we arrive here, at a place in which our understanding of electricity is matched, if not overwhelmed, by our dependence on it? Bringing the scientific history of electricity to a dramatic conclusion, this program describes how a new age dawned - how researchers discovered electric fields and electromagnetic waves. Viewers learn about the achievements of James Clerk Maxwell, Heinrich Hertz, Oliver Lodge, Jagadish Bose, William Crookes, Herbert Matare, Heinrich Welker, and others. The program also asks whether or not tomorrow might bring yet another breakthrough - because if we can understand the secret of electrical superconductivity we could once again transform the world.
