The Manhattan Project

In a race against the Nazis to develop an atomic bomb, the USA assigned leading scientists like Albert Einstein from all over the world to The Manhattan Project, an incredible scientific, engineering and manufacturing feat which would have everlasting global consequences. This documentary examines the Manhattan Project through government files, archival footage and accounts of surviving members of the developing team, including Paul Tibbets, pilot of the Enola Gay, and directors of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Allthough the atomic bomb was never officially used after worldwar 2, the potential danger and risk is still there and shold not be underestimated.

The Uncertain Nature of Matter

Uncertain Principles
This BBC documentary explores the emergence of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle in the early 20th century, and how its implications shook up the scientific establishment of the day. Its detractors -- including Einstein -- wanted to believe that an underlying determinism and realism is foundational to the universe. Despite experiments attempting to disprove Heisenberg's work, the Uncertainty Principle prevailed and remains one of the fundamental concepts of quantum theory.
