Hey everyone,

I found an AWSOME site that broadcasts science programs for free over the internet.

http://www.vega.org.uk/index.php"

If you go to Science Programmes > Vega Science Lectures > Richard Feynman you will find the lectures that he gave at the University of Auckland (New Zealand) in 1979.

The site has other sciences as well (biology, cosmology, engineering, etc.)

Hope you all enjoy!

Wonderful. I have revision that I have to do now so I don't know when I'll watch them all but I definitely will.
 
I'm just replying to say thanks for posting this up. I've viewed a few of the movies, and indeed this site is pretty awesome.
