Curiosity NOW

They orbit between our planet and our star; Mercury and Venus make up half of our terrestrial planets, but we still know very little about them; as we take a closer look at our companions, we find more questions than answers.

Mars is now under robotic scrutiny with our sights set on a manned mission soon.

Scientists and engineers manage to land a spacecraft on a comet; knowledge of these celestial marauders may drive industrial expansion into deep space.

Beyond the asteroid belt lay the ice giants; some can be seen with the naked eye, others only glimpsed once by a passing probe.

Moons of the gas giants, each is a unique and mysterious world of its own; some have oceans of water, geysers of Sulphur or atmospheres of plastic.

The Sun bathes our planet in warmth and light; it powers the machinery of nature, our weather and encourages and sustains life on land and at sea; scientists study it closely, and it can reveal the secrets of all other stars.

With technological advances and improved techniques scientists are discovering more and more worlds every day.

The night sky is a time machine; the further we look out into the universe the further back in time we reach.

One hundred kilometers above the Earth's surface lies an invisible frontier: the edge of space; this is the Kármán Line, the boundary between our planet's atmosphere and what lies beyond.

Launching payloads into space is a very difficult task and historically rocket launches are the proverbial 'swords into plowshares' missiles.

The sky above is studded with stars and countless galaxies; in them, humans can read not only their origin, but also their final destination; technology is on the brink of taking the human race to places it has only dreamed of.

The moon is our closest celestial companion; it lights our night sky and gently tugs at our shores; few have walked on her surface, but her allure remains strong.

Engineers race to generate vast power from thin air: the wind; one of the world's biggest wind farms is being built in harsh conditions along the coast of England; a Norwegian team works on the world's first floating wind farm.

A new breed of aviators is innovating new ways to fly from clean and green electric aircraft to autonomous sky taxis.

Exploring the quest to produce fusion -- an ultimate energy solution that has been likened to "bottling a star.".

The power of the oceans' tides is the last great untapped energy source on Earth; from sub-sea kites to floating platforms, teams of engineers race to perfect the technology to harness the vast flows of water.

Shipping companies and engineers create remarkable new machines to make their industry greener, using a resource that has moved man across the world's oceans for thousands of years: wind.

The sun is the biggest source of energy in the solar system; innovators search for new ways to capture more of the sun's power and make it available through the night, everywhere.
