Remember when science used to be part of the discovery of the world? It was keenly related to exactly what Everyone knee about real life, and the key experimenters were so obviously real people, pursuing questions that everyone had? Remember when science was engaging, and when it made us feel more enlightened about the past and more hopeful about the future? The BBC has done it again! “Science Stories” are a lovely antidote to a million sci-fi fantasies about science as the Doomsday machine dragging us down to Hell.
