Great Electric Airplane Race

Electric cars seem increasingly likely to replace our gas-guzzling vehicles. Could a new generation of emission-free electric planes do the same to the polluting airliners in our skies - a major step in the fight against climate change? NOVA looks at an array of new electric planes and takes a ride in some prototypes. Will the dream of super-quiet, super-efficient airliners become a reality?

The Harlem Hellfighters' Great War

In 1917, the 15th regiment of the NY National Guard, made up exclusively of black soldiers, was sent to fight the Great War in Europe. There, they discovered the horrors of the battlefields, but also a place where there was no racial segregation. The most decorated American soldiers of the First World War, as they fought on the front line for 191 days their hope was that when they returned home they would finally be considered fully-fledged US citizens. That was not the case. Through interviews with their family members, letters and archive film we will discover their story.

The Great War

In conjunction with the 100th anniversary of America’s entry into the war on 6 April 1917, this three-part series explores how World War I changed America and the world. Drawing on the latest scholarship, including unpublished diaries, memoirs and letters, this is the rich and complex story of the conflict through the voices of nurses, journalists, aviators and American troops. The series explores the costs and challenges of bringing America into World War I and the ways the war transformed every aspect of American life through the experiences of African-American and Latino soldiers, suffragists, Native American 'code talkers' and others whose participation in the war to 'make the world safe for democracy' has been largely forgotten. Part 1 of 3.
