Rivals over the Atlantic": This episode charts the history of the race for transatlantic commercial aviation, particularly the development of the jet engine and role of the jet airliner, especially the Boeing 707, in long-distance air travel, and Europe's response in the form of the Concorde.With the increasing use of (6) s......................... co monitor activities here on Earth, as well as the very real prospect of space tourism, now is a good time to ask who owns or, more importantly, who governs the vast area of space above us? In the relatively short time that man has been travelling in space we have already left sufficient (7) d......................... behind to show that we are as careless in our space travels as on Earth. The broken shuttle parts have simply been left to (8) f........................ in the atmosphere and cause a very real threat to everyone here on Earth.

Lighter than Air": This episode focuses on the history of ballooning, starting with the experiments of the Montgolfier brothers and the 1783 flight of Jean-François Pilâtre de Rozier and François Laurent d'Arlandes over Paris, and moving on to cover the flight of Jacques Charles and Marie-Noel Robert in the first hydrogen filled balloon, the 1785 crossing of the English Channel by Jean-Pierre Blanchard and John Jeffries, and James Glaisher and Henry Coxwell's record-breaking 1862 flight to over 30,000 feet. The episode subsequently charts the development of the airship, its use in World War I, and the golden age of large passenger airships with its high-profile disasters such as the Hindenburg disaster in 1937. Other topics include the rediscovery of balloons as an instrument of scientific research in the 1930s, and interview with Joseph Kittinger about the contribution of balloons to the U.S. space program in the 1950s, and more recent attempts by individuals such as Richard Branson to set new ballooning records. The struggle for him to first survive the accident is vivid and to watch him them somehow walk again and then convince the RAF to let him re-join (unprecedented) and then become a fighter ace and most important character in the RAF and known by all protagonist nations (including the Germans), then getting shot down and put in prison, and then escaping and the Germans having to confiscate his legs!Listen to someone talking about the problems of forming colonies on other planets. Complete the table with NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the talk. Our Reach for the Sky Challenge Fund recipients will be key to that, inspiring the next generation into the sector and helping to build an aviation workforce fit for the future. The title music song, entitled "The Moment of Triumph", [3] was created by Roger Limb of the BBC Radiophonic workshop and performed by Rod Argent and Bob Howes. [6] Episodes [ edit ]
