| Posted
on Tuesday, August 31, 2010 - 10:26 AM |
Learning to harness the power of fire. Inventing the first stone tools. Utilizing the wheel. Advancements in human culture – and the civilizations defined by them – were propelled by scientific breakthroughs. Launching Monday, September 27, Discovery Science is a brand new, fact-based channel that celebrates these trials, errors and scientific events that have forever changed our world – and looks to today’s maverick innovators to imagine our future. Consider the literature and architecture of ancient Greece; the invention of the printing press and the exploration of new worlds in the Middle Ages; and the giant leap in our recent past that saw the invention of the automobile, vaccines and the global proliferation of the Internet – science has the power to revolutionize civilizations and touch every human life. Cool and curious, Discovery Science explores the quirky side of technology, human progress, and scientific discoveries and how these shape our world. Discovery Science is the third of three new Discovery brands coming to Canada this season (Discovery World HD and Investigation Discovery launched in August).

Was it a Mafia hit? Or was its genesis more global, such as the conflicts with the Soviet Union or Cuba’s Castro? Even more insidious – was it an inside job? The debate over the circumstances surrounding the assassination of the 35th American President, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, has fuelled conspiracy theories for more than four decades. On the 46th anniversary of JFK’s death, Discovery Channel and Discovery Civilization each present two back-to-back specials exploring the newest forensic and film evidence; the collision course between Jack Ruby and Lee Harvey Oswald; and the intoxicating combination of power, politics and conspiracy. On Discovery Civilization, JFK: ALTERED STATESMAN premieres Sun., Nov. 22 at 10 p.m. ET/11 p.m. PT, followed by JFK: THE CONSPIRACY MYTHS at 11 p.m. ET/12 a.m. PT.
