hello and welcome to the science museum.n fong and this is the engineers: the future of ca rs. i am in the information age gallery, sat in front of an object called the rugby tuning coil, and 100 years ago, this big wheel of copper wrapped in wood was the most powerful transmitter in the world. so it is an appropriate place for us to have this broadcast which brings in an audience from five different continents through the magic of our video link, as well as a large audience here in the gallery for a programme that will be broadcast on bbc world service, on radio and television. the climate catastrophe and the sheer weight of traffic on our roads and the horrific rate of accidents that they cause has forced a revolution in the way we think about cars. with me today are three engineers who are at the forefront of that revolution. we have arjo van der ham from the netherlands who is the chief technical officer at a company called lightyear. he has developed the world's first family—sized solar powered car. jamie shotton, an ex

i did actually take my kids to the science museum - thursday. and intense heat wave for england and wales is now drawing to a close. it's a gradual process and over the next few days as the coolie is also put down for the northwest we are likely to see more thundershowers, even a really big thunderstorms across england and wales. tuesdays england and wales will see the showers, developing widely, they'll be producing a lot of rainfall in a short space of time so localised flooding problems. in scotland and northern ireland something a little quieter, northerly wind so it will feel much cooler here and it's going to be slightly fresher with highs of 25 a 26 degrees across the southeast. as we move through tuesday night we keep that team of clear spells and showers, scattered thunderstorms, slowly pushing further cells words and eastwards where as further north it will be a little bit quieter with clear skies cover that cooler air mask temperatures down in single digits in the north and slightly fresher for england and wales. wednesday, we've got

and i think that that carries over to science museums. i think you see natural history museums that are very much modeling themselves on institutions in europe, and relacing to be part of this kind of a larger process of exchange. and really kind of trying to build these -- that can compete with the institutions that are already more established in europe. so i think that that pattern is really carries on and it continues with the founding of some of these later, more specialized museums to. >> well, in the spirit of history and dialogue, i think we should open it up to our brilliant audience. we have a number of questions bubbling away. please add yours in the next couple of minutes. and, we are just going to dive in. >> sounds great. >> first up, do you have a favorite old cabinet or museum that still exists in some form today for visiting? >> oh, that is such an interesting question. i would say you know, i would say that i have really appreciated a lot of recent curatorial projects that are kind of thinking explicitly about this histor

you were a school elementary or middle school student and you went to a natural history or a science museum in the 50s that you would see one of these and they would have things like radioactive frogs frogs that had been injected with radio isotopes and students could handle geiger counters and sort of put them over the frogs and it would start clicking right so some of the first interactive exhibits were undertaken in the context of this adams for peace exhibit. and that's a good example of museums as a medium reinforcing other mediums, right? museums trying to become new just like film is trying to become new on television. so the goal of adams for peace we find out from looking at behind the scenes documents because it wouldn't be marketed this way in public was a kind of emotional management of the tensions that are involved in the nuclear culture. so the tension being on the one hand escalating nuclear armament, that's kind of the the hallmark of the cold war period but on the other hand homefront uses of atomic energy that they want to kind of spin as particularly harmless that they w
