As World War I was raging in Europe, a political and social revolution defined by a struggle between the labor class and capitalists was taking place in Russia. In early 1917, the Bolshevik Party, headed by Vladimir Lenin, felt that the social climate in Russia was beginning to change in their favor. Outlining his plan for a communist revolution, Lenin wrote his “April Thesis” to demonstrate the Bolshevik vision for a Soviet State. By the end of October 1917, the Bolshevik Party, soon to be renamed the Communist Party, had control of the Russian government. In March 1918, Russia officially withdrew from the “capitalistic” world war. (Video is narrated with slides and speeches.)

The universe fascinates us not least because of its infinite widths. Inside the universe there is room for countless planets and celestial bodies, which far exceed our imagination with their gigantic number. But is the thesis of infinite space really unassailable? The discovery of the NASA space probes New Horizon's and Voyager 2 could give cause to rethink the generally accepted picture of the never-ending universe. But what exactly did the spacecraft discover in the gigantic expanses of space? Together with you, we would like to get to the bottom of this interesting topic. (10:14)

Amid the tragedy of the assassination of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, an extraordinary moment in U.S. political history occurred as Robert F. Kennedy, younger brother of slain President John F. Kennedy, broke the news of King's death to a large gathering of African Americans in Indianapolis, Indiana. That evening Robert Kennedy spoke from his soul. The words rang in almost a prayerful manner. This is an incredible montage of photos, and a great recording of Kennedy's moving statement.
