The Nord Stream 1 pipeline will stop for three days for repairs according to the Russian government, but many European leaders fear Russian could extend this to drive up already rising gas prices across Europe. We hear from Stefan Lechtenböhmer, Director of Future Energy Stems at the Wuppertal Institute in Germany to find out more about what’s happening at the pipeline. Also in the programme; as the world’s largest offshore windfarm becomes fully operational in the UK, Duncan Clark, the head of UK operations at Orsted, who own the windfarm tells us how important this is. And Michael Hecht, an academic at MIT, joins us to discuss a project that could create oxygen for astronauts on Mars, and we go from science to fantasy with Variety’s Michael Schneider, to find out how important the upcoming Rings of Power series could be for Amazon.
