About this episode

This episode explores various scientific topics including patterns in nature, the anatomy and social life of bees, the Silurian Hypothesis, and the evolutionary history of cats.

Let's explore scientific topics tonight, with this compilation of four episodes: - part 1 is about the shapes and patterns in nature. Why do certain shapes come back, rather than others, what are these favoured shapes, and what is the golden ratio? - part 2 is a presentation about bees: species, anatomy and social life. - part 3 deals with the decay of structures and artifacts built by civilizations, and what traces they could live behind; this is at the heart of the Silurian Hypothesis. - part 4 tells you all about cats: their evolutionary history, their species, and what distinguishes them from other mammals.
