πFinding planets around other stars
β
π£Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
π£How do we find planets -- even habitable planets -- around other stars? By looking for tiny dimming as a planet passes in front of its sun, TED Fellow Lucianne Walkowicz and the Kepler mission have found some 1,200 potential new planetary systems. With new techniques, they may even find ones with the right conditions for life.

πThe woman who stared at the sun
π§ Alex Gendler
π£Subtitle: πΉπ·Turkish | π¬π§English
π£In 1944, amateur astronomer Hisako Koyama's latest endeavor was sketching the sun's shifting surface. She spent weeks angling her telescope towards the sun and tracking every change she saw with drawings. Little did she know, these drawings were the start of one of the most important records of solar activity in human history. Alex Gendler details the incredible legacy of Koyama's work. [Directed by Martina MeΕ‘troviΔ, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Marko First].

πCould we build a miniature sun on Earth?
π§ George Zaidan
π£Subtitle: π¬π§English | πΉπ·Turkish
π£Stars have cores hot and dense enough to force atomic nuclei together, forming larger, heavier nuclei in a process known as fusion. In this process, the mass of the end products is slightly less than the mass of the initial atoms. But that βlostβ mass doesnβt disappear β itβs converted to energy ... a lot of energy. So, can we harness this energy to power the world? George Zaidan investigates. [Directed by Igor ΔoriΔ, Artrake Studio, narrated by George Zaidan, music by Cem Misirlioglu, Brooks Ball].

πThe secret force for limitless energy? Lasers
π§ Tammy Ma
π£Subtitle: π¬π§English
π£In 2022, physicist Tammy Ma and her team achieved a scientific breakthrough decades in the making: fusion ignition, or the combining of two atoms to generate more energy out of a reaction than was put in β recreating on Earth the same process that powers the Sun. She explains how they used a giant laser (way, way bigger than you're thinking) to catalyze this reaction and shares a vision for how this technology could change the world by creating limitless clean energy.
