A deeply layered tale of shipwreck, steep loss of life, courage, sacrifice and human endurance; of rescue and remembrance.

This week marks 80 years since the first use of nuclear weapons in war, when the United States dropped a pair of atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9, 1945. Hundreds of thousands of civilians were killed in the bombings. Many died instantly, and many others died more slowly from severe burns and radiation sickness. Some estimates put the combined death toll over 250,000 killed. We speak with veteran journalist Greg Mitchell, whose new documentary, streaming at PBS.org and airing on PBS, reexamines a remarkable episode in the ... continua

Cutting-edge technology. Sleek, ultra-modern buildings. The capital's second hub is on a fast track to the future.

Less than 12 kms from Paris, and with strict flight curfews, the challenges to transform the airport-from rebuilding its two runways to linking the airport to Paris by metro-are as great as its dramatic renovation plans. Prepare for takeoff.

One year ago, Nikolas Cruz legally purchased a semi-automatic rifle, walked into his old high school in Parkland, Florida, and killed 17 people. After the event, students decided to take on the all-powerful American gun rights lobby: the National Rifle Association. Tracing the story of a student uprising unlike any seen before, this moving documentary explores how, with its five million members and many political connections, the NRA manages to keep such a permissive gun law alive, and why it has such a strong hold over American society.

At an unprecedented gathering of hundreds of top generals and admirals from U.S. military installations around the world, President Trump delivered a rambling speech Tuesday alongside Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. They laid out their vision of a “warrior” culture in the U.S. military and claimed the United States is facing an “invasion from within.” Eugene Fidell, a military scholar at Yale Law School, says the meeting was a means of “exacting loyalty, special loyalty, from the most senior officers and enlisted personnel” and that by promoting a solely ... continua

We speak with Allison Minnerly, a 26-year-old DNC member from Florida, who introduced a resolution for the party to support an arms embargo on Israel, cut off military aid to the country and recognize Palestinian statehood. The measure was blocked by party leaders who instead backed a rival resolution by DNC Chair Ken Martin, which called for a ceasefire in Gaza, ... continua

La bolla esamina in modo approfondito le esclusive esperienze, le convinzioni e la mentalità di sei memorabili residenti di The Villages: Toni e Roger, Jeanie e John, Terry e Toni. Intrecciando queste soddisfatte esistenze di pensionati con le ansie di diversi residenti ... continua
