Humanity’s potential seems limitless. But could we become as powerful as God?
It appears we live in a universe filled with light. But scientists are now certain there is far more matter in the dark portions of our universe.
It's called the speed limit of the universe. Einstein blew all of our minds when he worked out the Theory of Relativity, and showed that space and time were malleable substances. He also theorized that we as humans can never travel faster than the speed of light, which leaves the stars and other galaxies almost impossibly out of our reach. But the dreams of Star Wars and Star Trek are not dead. In fact, there could be ways to travel faster than the speed of light - and some of them are already being tested in labs around the world.
The dangers of nations being dependent on digital devices and global interactivity are examined.

What had happened to the happy, smiling Sherpas and their dedication in getting foreigners to the top of the mountain they hold so sacred?
