thanks forjoining me here at the science museum in london for this edition of witness history, bringing you important moments from the past as told by the people who were there. in this episode we look back at five incredible stories from space. coming up, we'll hear from the first afghan cosmonaut in space, whose mission nearly ended in tragedy. plus the women aquanauts who spent two weeks living underwater in the atlantic ocean. the handshake in space which became a symbol of peace between russia and america during the cold war, and laika, the dog who was sent into space. but first, in 1990, scientists developed a telescope which would become a household name and would eventually reveal parts of the universe that had never been seen before. nasa scientist katherine sullivan helped launch the hubble telescope into space and remembers the disappointment that followed. hubble to me matters on a number of planes, the scientific, the astronomical and cosmological advances it's delivered are legendary, fundamentally changing our understanding of black holes, showing us many dimensions we ne

unlike most other museums in amsterdam aimed at serious adults, the task of the children's science center is much more difficult to tell about electricity and the design of electric vehicles in the structure of the human brain or the dna molecule in simple language accessible to children. here , adults help people discover the world in the nemo museum , as a rule, they come out of curiosity, but having discovered something new, they rush to show it to their children. we have a museum of many interesting things, for example, ball factory, it teaches logistics and understanding of the mechanisms of interaction between objects or a chemical laboratory where children can set up their own chemical experiment, of course, under the supervision of employees. but they really like magnets , mirrors, strobe lights and artificial lightning, spectacular visual effects and much more, it turns out about many things that surround us in everyday life. we just don’t think, we don’t realize their nature and mechanisms, we don’t understand how they work complex things in simple terms. need to back to the ess
