    Explore the Amazon rainforest’s flying rivers, and dig into why these invisible waterways are essential to life on Earth. -- The largest rainforest in the world, the Amazon, exists between two rivers — but not in the way you might think. At ground level, the Amazon River and its tributaries weave their path. But above the canopy, bigger waterways are on the move. These flying rivers are almost invisible, but are essential to life on Earth. Iseult Gillespie explores how this crucial system keeps the rainforest alive. Lesson by Iseult Gillespie, directed by Upamanyu Bhattacharyya, Otter Studios.

    How fast is the speed of thought? - Seena Mathew

    Travel into the brain to see how its network of neurons transmit your thoughts and what factors determine how quickly you think. Uploaded 16-11-20 -- Your mortal enemy has captured you and hooked you up to a bizarre experiment. He’s extended your nervous system with one very long neuron to a target about 70 meters away. At some point, he’s going to fire an arrow. If you can then think a thought to the target before the arrow hits it, he’ll let you go. So who wins that race? Seena Mathew examines the speed of thought. Lesson by Seena Mathew, directed by Andrew Foerster.
