The last segment of this video focuses on gestation: Over the course of nine months, a single, fertilized egg becomes a baby!

This series (originally created in French) explains processes in the human body, and in particular those related to cells and reproduction. We begin with the origin of the first cell—the source of all life on Earth!

What is a cell made of, and how many of them are there in the human body? And what is the “primordial soup” from which all life on Earth emerged?

Red and white blood cells, fats, carbohydrates, and more! They are all anthropomorphized in this zany animated look at how human cells are formed.

The journey continues inside of the cell, where one of the operators take a few elements along on a tour of all of the different respiratory processes.

A few nasty viruses have managed to gain entry into the cells. But the white blood cells can handle them!

In this final segment detailing the goings-on within a human cell, we learn about what happens when there’s a skin injury.

"There are inventions that were made and later forgotten, and there are inventions that somebody forgot to invent." Walter Günther from Frankfurt/Main has done some catching up. He makes devices, which look as if they are from a museum, but which in reality never existed! (Copyright DPA)

Everyone knows the brand Mercedes-Benz, but not many know much about the founder. This video series tells the story of the automobile from the very beginning, and in particular, the life story of Carl Benz.

From Brussels to Barcelona in just 30 minutes? The dream could soon become reality! Come along on a high-speed trip to the Netherlands and learn more about the futuristic vision of a Europe-wide Hyperloop transport network.

Air travel has been the focus of much scrutiny lately due to its devastating effects on the environment. How will the aircraft of the future address this problem?

What sounds like a distant vision of the future is already possible today – at least when it comes to technology. Will quadcopters and "soulless" unmanned aircraft soon be transporting hundreds of passengers over long distances?

Freaked out by the idea of a pilotless plane? How about one without any moving parts at all – no turbines, no propellers? The next generation of aircraft could involve ion propulsion, which allows planes to take off and land anywhere – all without making a sound.
