Brews you can use

Flipping channels Saturday morning, I caught the end of an enthusiastic and illuminating description of Rutherford’s scattering experiment. Very interesting. This was part of a three-part documentary series “Atom”, which was only being broadcast that morning. Drat, I’d missed the first half hour, and couldn’t monopolize the TV for the next two and a half hours to catch this.

Well, the host of this documentary did have a British accent, and I had watched this excellent BBC-broadcast science documentary on Google video, so I checked there to see if it was available.

Sure enough:

Atom, Part 1

Atom, Part 2

Atom, Part 3

Good stuff, probably some of the best popular science programming I’ve seen in a while.
