Today on Far Future Horizons we present the third and final
episode of an electrifying documentary series titled Shock and Awe: The Story
of Electricity hosted by Professor Jim Al-Khalili.
Electricity is not just something that creates heat
and light, it connects the world through networks and broadcasting. After
centuries of man’s experiments with electricity, the final episode tells the
story of how a new age of real understanding dawned – how we discovered
electric fields and electromagnetic waves. Today we can hardly imagine life
without electricity – it defines our era. As our understanding of it has
increased so has our reliance upon it, and today we’re on the brink of a new
breakthrough, because if we can understand the secret of electrical
superconductivity we could once again transform the world.
Shock and Awe: The Story of Electricity is available on DVD from the Open University.
