“You’re not looking for a show, but chart the coming years and find out how a new technological leap is being prepared, with expectations justified. Technology always has an impact, and most of it will be positive, despite some vulnerabilities,” said Franganillo, also host of the La-1 newscast, at the launch of the documentary series.

The event took place on Tuesday at the Kaleido Tower, since that is where the headquarters is Change Control Center from IE University, an institution that partnered with TVE Information Services to deliver the program.

From there you will study defrost accelerationexploitation of key mineral resources for energy transmission and the possibility of opening new shipping routes favored by warmer temperatures.

In addition, the debut of the program will address the fight against changing of the climate through science and technology, accelerating the research of new pure sources. Among them is nuclear fusion.

” thermonuclear reaction it’s a process that releases energy from the union of light elements, as happens inside stars,” Pablo Rodriguez-Fernandez, a research fellow at MIT’s Center for Plasma and Fusion, explained at the event. . . .

International projection

The award will also provide access to one of the greatest science projects of our time: ITER reactor which is built in France thanks to the funding of several countries to achieve unlimited energy by simulating the process of the sun and stars. The heroes of the chapter will be Sergey Paltsev from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Marian Paviasen, former minister of Greenland; and Christine Schild of the University of Maine.

This international presence will not be accidental: 10,000 days appears with international projection. For this reason, as RTVE shared, every documentary has duration from 52 to 56 minutes.
