Everyone has their own Christmas traditions. Perhaps you like opening your advent calendar every day, decorating your Christmas tree, or going carolling. But what about watching the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures?
The Lectures have been held every Christmastime since 1825, hosted by the Royal Institution, with the aims of making science more accessible and inspiring the next generation of great scientists.
The first Royal Institution Christmas Lecture was hosted by the British engineer John Millington. In 1936 it became the UK’s first science TV series. They were created by Michael Faraday who also hosted the lectures on nineteen separate occasions, at a time when organised education for young people was scarce.

Let us contemplate the Mystery of the Redemption being realized in time; henceforth, mankind has been divided into two camps: those who have received the Light that has come into the world, and those who have not.
