Beyond Infinity episodes

  • Saving The World's First Solar Power Station
    Retired satellite telecoms expert Graeme Hanigan's pet project is the preservation of the first ever commercial solar power station, built in 1980, at White Cliffs in western New South Wales. Graeme explains how it worked and why it should be recognised as an important part of Australia's engineering heritage.
    16 min
  • Our Changing View Of Reality (Part 2)
    Dr Tony Heyes takes us through the big theories of science and how scientists have responded to philosophy. He shows how the more a scientific theory claims, the better the theory because it can potentially be disproved more easily. At the end of the day, nothing is absolutely certain. Science is tentative, provisional and only a metaphor of reality.
