Story
In 1969, Princeton physicist Gerard O'Neill began looking outward to space colonies as the new frontier for humanity's expansion. A decade later, Eric Drexler, an MIT-trained engineer, turned his attention to the molecular world as the place where society's future needs could be met using self-replicating nanoscale machines. These modern utopians predicted that their technologies could transform society as humans mastered the ability to create new worlds, undertook atomic-scale engineering, and, if truly successful, overcame their own biological limits.

Story
Una palla infuocata si è trasformata in milioni di anni in ciò che noi chiamiamo Terra: un agglomerato di rocce sufficientemente solido da ospitare i vasti oceani della nostra ‘arancia blu’ e grandi continenti in perpetuo movimento. Un ambiente dove la vita ha prosperato, e continua a farlo nonostante tutto e tutti. Eppure di questo spazio, su cui poggiamo i piedi tutti i giorni e che ci nutre, spesso sappiamo pochissimo.

Story
Los filósofos griegos construyeron grandes discusiones sobre la realidad que continúan vigentes y siguen inspirando a los pensadores de hoy. Desde las enseñanzas matemáticas de Pitágoras, pasando por las ideas de Platón y Aristóteles, han sido fundamentales para el desarrollo intelectual hasta nuestros días. Hoy, sin embargo, ese papel lo ha adoptado una nueva clase de visionarios.

Story
Il fuoco, i vestiti, le armi; il cibo, l’alcol, la scrittura; la medicina, la ruota, le nuove terre. Quella dell’umanità è una storia avventurosa, costellata di snodi fondamentali, piccole e grandi scoperte o invenzioni che hanno cambiato per sempre la nostra civiltà e l’ambiente intorno a noi e ci hanno trasformato da ominidi pelosi ma ingegnosi in esseri umani dotati di humour e gusti raffinati (e chissà se è stato un bene).

Story
El 13 de enero de 2020, Salvador Illa tomaba posesión de su nuevo cargo: Ministro de Sanidad. Ese mismo día, en la otra punta del mundo, las alertas empezaban a sonar en Wuhan. Transcurrido un tiempo prudencial y superada ya una de las peores crisis sanitarias de la historia, toca hacer balance y dar cuenta de lo acaecido. Esta es una crónica en primera persona de un año que transcurrió a un ritmo frenético, un libro que nos sumerge en la trastienda del poder, una pequeña sala de crisis desde la que se lideró y coordinó el trabajo de cientos de profesionales y en la que fue imposible aislarse de la gravedad y de la tensión con la que se vivía en España esos días.

Story
Alles passiert irgendwann zum ersten Mal. Oft ist dieses erste Mal eine mutige Idee, manchmal aber auch ein schräger Zufall oder das Ergebnis jahrelanger Forschung. Sicher ist, ohne diesen einen Moment sähe unser Alltag heute völlig anders aus. Wir würden zum Beispiel anders frühstücken, andere Musik hören oder anders verhüten. Wir hätten wahrscheinlich keine Impfstoffe und weniger Urlaubstage, unsere Drucker würden nicht funktionieren, das Essen würde anders schmecken – von all den medizinischen Entwicklungen ganz zu schweigen.

Story
Com'è cominciata la vita? Come si è evoluta per arrivare fino a noi? Come e perché è stata ricreata in laboratorio? La si può rendere immortale? Sono domande che non possiamo non farci. E a cui la scienza continua a dare risposte nuove e sorprendenti. Nel giro di pochi anni è cambiato tutto; oggi non solo il Dna si può estrarre e sequenziare con risultati assai affidabili ma questi studi aprono prospettive inimmaginabili.

Story
Anni fa, sulle rive del lago Bajkal, in Siberia, una donna mi lesse la mano. E un paio di anni dopo un bramino della città sacra di Vrindavan, in India, guardò nel mio futuro. Entrambi mi raccontarono delle stesse gioie che mi avrebbe riservato la vita. E della morte. Prematura e violenta. Che dovrebbe cogliermi tra poco.Alcune tra le cose predette si sono avverate. Altre non saprei. Le parole si sono perse nel tempo insieme alle cose a cui non do importanza. Ma con l’avvicinarsi di quell’appuntamento mi sono ritrovato a concentrarmi su un errore della divinazione.

Story
Da sempre misuriamo il mondo. Per conoscerlo ed esplorarlo, per viverci, per interagire con i nostri simili. L'umanità misura per conoscere il passato, comprendere il presente, progettare il futuro. Ci sono voluti però millenni perché due rivoluzioni, quella scientifica iniziata con Galileo e quella francese, avviassero il percorso per rendere il sistema di misura condiviso e non più basato su deperibili artefatti umani, ma su elementi invariabili e universali della natura.

Story
A ciência vem sendo maltratada. Negacionismo, achismos, falta de investimento: ela tem precisado lutar pelo que antes era óbvio, pois vivemos em um momento em que fatos inquestionáveis são...questionados. Os prejuízos desse desapego pela ciência são sentidos duramente nos dias atuais e amplificados pelas redes sociais. Que remédio há para esses males?
