The mystery of the giant kelp forest - Luka Seamus Wright and Salomé Buglass
21 Tem 2026
Discover the ocean’s hidden kelp forests, and explore how these light-dependent organisms evolved to survive at dark depths. -- Like any other plant, kelps require light to grow. Yet kelps found nearly 90 meters below the ocean's surface, where sometimes only 0.1% of sunlight can reach, grow as large as, and often even larger than, their shallow counterparts. So how have these large, light-dependent organisms adapted to thrive at such depths? Luka Seamus Wright and Salomé Buglass explore the ocean's hidden forests. Lesson by Luka Seamus Wright and Salomé Buglass, directed by Upamanyu Bhattacharyya, Otter Studios.

When did we start using passports? - Kristin Surak
14 Tem 2026
Trace the history of passports to find out why we need these documents and what challenges travelers face within this system. -- Passports are not the first form of travel documents: in Ancient Egypt, travelers carried “letters of safe conduct” issued by rulers; in Han China and Tudor England, foreigners were issued travel passes. However, for much of human history, borders have been relatively fluid, and travel lacked bureaucratic requirements. So, what changed? Kristin Surak details the history of the passport system.
