12 Events that will change everything

From the Scientific American comes this interactive presentation that allows us a peek at the way 12 events would change life forever. The 12 events are polar meltdown, extra dimensions, extra terrestrial intelligence, nuclear exchange, creation of life, room temperature superconductors, machine self-awareness, cloning of a human, pacific earthquake, fusion energy, asteroid collision and deadly pandemic.

The interactive allows us to develop both our reading and listening skills through a number of slideshows, timelines and videos while we get acquainted with some controversial scientific issues.
