Sinopse
That old maxim of “knowledge is power” is as true today as it was when Francis Bacon first coined the term back in the late 1500s; and while that is itself still true, the speed at which we send and receive knowledge and information can be just as powerful.We have been witnesses to this through the years as we laid Atlantic telegraph cables in the 1860s, sent satellites into space, and now we may stand again on the precipice of a new age of rapid communication with groundbreaking research into “teleportation”.Joining Jonathan to discuss is Prof Andrew Forbes from the School of Physics at Wits University in South Africa.Also joining us for this week's installment of Newsround is Lianne Shanley, PhD Researcher from the School of Biochemistry and Immunology, Trinity College Dublin & Dr. Shane Bergin, Assistant Professor in Science Education, UCD.
