The Changing Face of Childhood

Dulwich Picture Gallery - "The writing of John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau and painters such as Gainsborough and Thomas Lawrence, changed the perception of childhood forever. They were portrayed as individuals in their own right and not just little grown-ups. These videos, presented by Ian Dejardin, Director of Dulwich Picture Gallery, chart the change in portraiture of children during this important time in history."

"To Survive in the Universe - 'I don't think the humen race will survive the next thousand years, unless we spread into space. There are too many accidents that can befall life on a single planet.' The SKY-MAP.ORG authors completely share these concerns of Stephen Hawking. The only words we could add are that the greatest threat to the human race is the human race itself."
