DOCUMENTARY
The world's first expedition to the Arctic was in 1845. Some 129 men led by British explorer John Franklin set off on two ships to navigate the Northwest Passage, a sea lane between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans through the Arctic Ocean. But the excitement of this quest soon turned to concern and intrigue, when the ships vanished without a trace. Now, a team of explorers sets out to trace Franklin's route. Their adventure will be documented in Lost in the Arctic, the latest episode in National Geographic's Explorer series, which will stream on Disney+ and Hulu from August 25.
Computing the Climate: How We Know What We Know About Climate Change Accurate climate models have existed since the 1800s. Learn how these models have developed - and why we should believe them.

CHAOS IN-DEFINITION
The Aravallis are perhaps India's most litigated hill range. More than 4,000 court cases have failed to arrest their destruction. The latest dispute concerns a narrow legal definition of this geological antiquity, much of which has been obliterated by mining and urban sprawl. While the Supreme Court has stayed its own judgement accepting that definition, it must see the underlying reality and help reconcile development and national security with conservation.
