Taming Wind

Episodes(2)

Once believed to reflect the moods of the gods, the wind has always been a source of fear and fascination for humans. At times destructive, it is also crucial to the advancement of life on earth…pollinating plants and dispersing species, propelling vessels, and powering machines.

Today, we can describe the physical principles behind this mighty resource but still haven’t learned how to fully exploit and harness its excess. So researchers have turned to Mother Nature for inspiration, studying how plants, insects, and birds adapt to it. Their challenge now is to invent the technology that can transform this invisible force into an infinite source of energy. Will the winds of change be on their side?
