PBS Nova - Einsteins Big Idea English | Xvid | 704×400 | MP3 128kbps | 1.3GB | RS.com Everyone’s heard of it, but what does E=mc2 — the world?s most famous equation — really mean? And why did it change the world? With brilliant period recreations, NOVA dramatizes how an obscure young patent clerk, Albert Einstein, came up with his shattering 1905 discovery that the realms of matter and energy are inescapably linked. An accessible, suspenseful epic, Einstein’s Big Idea reveals the roots of his astonishing breakthrough in the human stories of men and women whose innovative thinking across four centuries helped lead to E=mc2, and ultimately unleashed the power of the atom. Here are stories rich with achievement and failure, feuds and duplicity, love and rivalry, politics and revenge: Michael Faraday, the penniless blacksmith?s son who fought the ridicule of the scientific establishment; Antoine Lavoisier, the cool-headed experimenter who fell victim to the guillotine; and Lise Meitner, the physicist who weathered Nazi persecution and personal betrayal on her path to discovering the splitting of the atom. As one discovery builds on the next, Einstein’s Big Idea shows how Einstein’s saga began with the personal lives of these pioneers and their years of persistence, ingenuity, sacrifice, and heroic struggle against the odds. The film stars Aidan McArdle (Ella Enchanted) as Einstein, and Shirley Henderson (Bridget Jones and Harry Potter) as Einstein’s first wife, Mileva Maric and is narrated by John Lithgow (3rd Rock From The Sun) to bring you the best documentary you may ever see.

The World at War, The definitive Documentary on World War II

255-700mb each, 52min



The World at War" covers the entire history of World War II from the causes of the 1920s to the aftermath of the Cold War in the 1950s. Emphasis is also placed on several inside story episodes, where events are covered which occurred inside Germany and Japan such as resistance to Hitler, life in general under a dictatorial regime, and particular emphasis is focused on the Jewish Holocaust.

Producer Jeremy Isaacs asked a historian to list fifteen key campaigns of the war and devoted one episode to each. The remaining eleven episodes were devoted to other issues such as home life in Britain and Germany, the experience of occupation in The Netherlands, and the Nazis' use of genocide.

This is a must have for any WWII buff.

GREAT NATURAL WONDERS

Einstein's Equation of Life and Death


In the summer of 1939 Albert Einstein was on holiday in a small resort town on the tip of Long Island. His peaceful summer, however, was about to be shattered by a visit from an old friend and colleague from his years in Berlin. The visitor was the physicist Leo Szilard. He had come to tell Einstein that he feared the Nazis could soon be in possession of a terrible new weapon and that something had to be done.

Szilard believed that recent scientific breakthroughs meant it was now possible to convert mass into energy. And that this could be used to make a bomb. If this were to happen, it would be a terrible realisation of the law of nature Einstein had discovered some 34 years earlier.

Information

Filmed by the BBC Natural History Unit, 'Deep Blue' plunges you into the spectacle of the seas and takes you on a journey from shallow coral reefs to the barren shores of the Antartic, from vast stretches of open ocean to the nocturnal landscapes of the ocean's deepest chasms. The film was shot in more than 200 locations around the world over five years. 'Deep Blue' transcends the genre of nature documentary to become something entirely new.
