Doordarshan is presenting The Science of India, half hour infotainment show which deals with the various branches of Indian science through the ages.

Produced by Miditech, the weekly series starts on DD India on 10 June and will be telecast every Thursday at 1 pm and 11 pm, says a press release.

 
 

The Science of India showcases the mathematicians, surgeons and visionaries of ancient India. It treads the historic path to Takshashila, which was the seat of learning in 700 B.C.

The show, which is divided into four sections, opens with a general science story that traces the life and times of the great men and women of science, who defied the limitations of the human mind to propose theories and path breaking ideas, way before their time.

The medicine section, on the other hand, traces India's contribution to the understanding of the human anatomy, whereas the architecture section unravels the scientific secrets behind some of the greatest architectural marvels of the world.

The series also reveals that there is a science to art too; whether in the pirouettes of a folk dance or the raga of a classical symphony.

The Science of India depicts how the country saw the first light of Science which sowed the seeds of scientific knowledge.

Earlier, Miditech has also produced a series called Living on the Edge for Doordarshan.
