When getting water at a segregated fountain, young Morgan begins to reflect on the subject of race. Is one really superior?

Researcher Josh Correll explains what led him to focus on rascism, and ithe importance of understanding it.

An experiement shows when one person in a group starts to “take” instead of “give,” gradually most of the group will resort to taking for themselves as well. Are we influenced by our surroundings?

Stereotypes affect everyones behavior; Josh Correll illustrates how little snippets of information can lead us to our behavior.

No matter how arbitrarily a group is formed, we automatically find ourselves aligned with that group, putting it's needs before our own.

Researchers have found that the feeling of joy at our rival's failure is something that our brains learn to crave.

Morgan reflects on his youth, facing a stereotype and standing up to a bully.

Do we need a time machine to time travel, or could a wormhole do the job?

Professor Paul Davies uses a chocolate factory production line to illustrate how the future limits what can be in the present.

Some theorize we each have an individual slice of the present and our brains trick us into believing it is the same for all. Does our brain trick us into only seeing time in one direction, and could we change that view?

Closed time like curves, exotic arrangements of matter overlapping back upon themselves, suggest it might be possible to go back in time. Professor Todd Brun studies this theory, but believes we cannot change events.

Experiments with subatomic particles show the future position of the particle limits where it can be in the present. Professor Paul Davies thinks may also be happening at the level of our everyday reality.

Morgan wishes his grandmother was still alive, which leads him to ponder the concept of time.

As young Morgan plays in the woods in summer, he wonders if time really exists

Richard Lenski, who is conducting the world’s longest evolutionary experiment has tended colonies of e-coli over 27 years. After years, one strain mutates. Why did that group evolve?

Video game designer Jesse Schell explains why it is hard to create an alternate reality. It’s not just about the three dimensions; you’d have to create all the other senses. Could a computer handle all that?

Is it possible "post-humans," have such advanced computing power they can run many simulations of our lives? Are we biological beings or are we patterns of data created that are acting in staged dramas?

Young Morgan watches water bugs and ponders the idea there may be more than three dimensions.

The scientists at LIGO have a large-scale physics experiment and observatory that detects cosmic gravitational waves.

Confidence plays a big part in succeeding in life. We did an experiment to see if feeling lucky actually influences success rates.

When a magician comes to Morgan's town, he wonders if his perception of reality can be tricked, then what is reality?

If we are living in a matrix wouldn’t there be a wireframe holding it together? Silas Beane, nuclear physicist believes he has pinpointed a glitch in the universe that could reveal this grid?

Virtually every living thing contains pieces of DNA from the outside called transposones. They insert themselves in our genes and replicate independently. So how do they get there?

In a 2013 test to collect material from the atmosphere, Professor Milton Wainrwight catches some unique organisms, some traveling so fast they left an impact on his collection device. Are they alien life?

Aliens could be digital life forms, living and replicating in our computers. Professor Chris Adami has proved it is possible to program life forms that replicate, evolve, and become extinct on computers. Are others out there?

When Morgan passes his house on the way home, it leads him to wonder what other life forms might look like.

When playing alien games with friends, young Morgan realizes someone has to be a winner. What would happen if real aliens contacted us?

Telling the truth or even a little white lie doesn’t require much thought, but pathological liars string together a lot of information. Is this possible because their neural pathways are different?
