Ulisse - The pleasure of discovery: Darwin - Un viaggio lungo 4 milioni di anni

Alberto Angela will tell us again the story of Charles Darwin, the famous English naturalist, who with his observations developed the theory of evolution, which is the basis of modern scientific knowledge. We will visit the house where he lived and, above all, we will follow him on his extraordinary journey aboard the brig Beagle: a journey that lasted 5 years in the intact environments of the South American continent among volcanoes, glaciers, wild islands and tropical forests, which led him to reflect on the reasons and on the origin of the thousands of plant and animal species.
