-Latif?
-Yeah?
Welcome in Bodélé.
Wow, it kind of just looks

My name is Latif Nasser.
I'm a science reporter.

And this is a show about
the astonishing connections all around us,
connections between you

from an electronic country,
to tiny killers you can see
from outer space,
shark-proof garden hoses,
detecting potential tsunamis.
What we need is nothing short
of a global brainstorm.
