Making Mountains,

The Rockies. Magnificent and awe-inspiring mysterious, the Rockies are one of the longest mountain ranges in the world. Naked Science investigates the geological processes that build these massive mountains.

How To Avert an Asteroid Impact,

Throughout history, the earth has been bombarded from space. Asteroid impacts have caused mass extinctions – including the dinosaur wipe out. Earth is still in the firing line – could the next impact be a bulls-eye and wipe us too off the face of the earth. Naked Science investigates how the planet can avert another asteroid impact

What's Wrong With Pluto,

Naked Science investigates the violent cosmological forces that create planets and discover what it is that makes a planet a planet.

Snowball Earth,

There is a theory that scientists once dismissed as absurd - that long ago the Earth became so cold every inch of it was entombed in ice. The whole planet became one vast snowball lasting for ten million years. Naked Science probes this controversial theory, looking at the proof of global glaciations in the hot, dry deserts of South Australia. We investigate the theories of how our planet entered this deep freeze and how life could have survived this global catastrophe and what caused it to end? Some even suggest that Snowball Earth brought about the evolution of multi-cellular life form and we look at what would happen to our lives if the ice was to return.

We breathe it every day, it protects us from solar radiation, controls our weather – it’s the atmosphere. Naked Science takes a trip from the earth to near space to understand how the earth’s atmosphere affects all life on the planet.

Mars our closest neighbor now a lifeless planet – but it may once have had water and therefore life. Naked Science investigates the red planet to learn how it was formed, how it became barren, and ask whether it ever will be possible to colonize it?
