By accident I came across two interesting science documentary videos available on the internet that are worth watching.

1.               The Big History of Everything http://www.history.com/shows/big-history/videos/big-history-the-big-history-of-everything-rev .This is about cosmology, biology, and science from the Big Bang to the present and about how we  got here. It highlights eight events that really created theuniverse and the current civilization.  Most fascinating!

2.               The Brain by David Eagleman  

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3923774/

which deals with the most important but least  understood part of our body; how do we decide?, how can we be brainwashed and commit genocide?  And other issues.

I hope these sites are not blocked and available  from China.
