Alberto Angela is at the heart of the Johnson Space Center in Houston, in a truly unique place: the laboratory where the rocks collected on the Moon by the Apollo astronauts are preserved. Inside, Alberto Angela will reveal what these stones have to say. In "Frankenstein," Mary Shelley imagined it was possible to reconnect nerve fibers between the brain and the body. Barbara Gallavotti and Francesca Marcelli went to hear from the experts to understand what became of that dream. Keeping the sea clean and properly purifying sewage is not an impossible feat, as demonstrated by the town that has been a symbol of seaside holidays for at least half a century: Rimini. How did they manage it? Superquark went to see how the purifier works. What does it take to be happy? Over 80% of people answer "money" and "success." "Nothing could be more wrong," Robert Waldiger of Harvard Medical School would respond.
