I have long loved this clip of BBC science broadcaster James Burke reporting live from NASA during the 1977 launch of Voyager 2 on a Titan IIIE/Centaur rocket. Every so often, it reappears on social media and reminds people just how extraordinary great science broadcasting can be. The clip originally appeared in Connections, Burke’s remarkable 1970s BBC series exploring the hidden relationships between science, technology, history and society. Nearly fifty years later, it still feels strikingly.
