Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are bits of the sun thrown into space. When directed in the direction of earth they are a grave threat to civilization. How the sun's magnetic fields generate CMEs, the earth magnetic field protects us from CMSs and how our civilization's dependence on magnetic fields keeps us at risk from CMEs is explained. Written by David Foss
EPS04
Scientists have taken a serious look at the possibility of time travel. Current scientific theories offer some likely prospects but engineering a working time machine, even if possible, remains a distant prospect.
EPS05
From highly sophisticated and sensitive space telescopes that look from afar to space probes that rendezvous with celestial objects to return samples, this program looks a few of the more dramatic space explorations missions in recent years. Written by Davd Foss
EPS06
This program repeatedly hammers home the catastrophic impact of a large asteroid impact on earth. Several known large impacts of the past are recounted as well as some recent near hits. Recent and planned missions to explore objects in the asteroid belt are reviewed. Written by David Foss
EPS07
We earthlings have what may be a unique opportunity in all the universe to view a stellar corona during a total solar eclipse. And while a solar eclipse is rare even on Earth, other eclipses are incredibly common despite the near perfect alignment required. In addition to the solar and lunar eclipses we are all familiar with this program looks at interplanetary and interstellar eclipses Written by David Foss
