哈囉，歡迎收看《牛頓系列》。刮鬍泡、面霜、牙膏，無論你是男是女，我敢肯定你的浴室裡至少有一項這些產品。不知怎地這些產品都需要長久保存，而這要利用防腐劑來達成。這些大多是我們所謂的對羥基苯甲酸酯，是很有效的東西。它們像荷爾蒙般影響身體。動物試驗顯示在極端情況下，這些對羥基苯甲酸酯能導致不孕。現在，這種身體護理產品問題會演變成“要是我聽從所有指出什麼東西對我有害的警告，我就不會使用任何東西”的狀況嗎？我會說這要看情形…

Hello and welcome to Newton. Shaving foam, face cream, tooth paste, no matter if you’re male or female, I’m sure you will have at least one of these products in your bathroom. Well, somehow all of these products need to be made to last. This is done with preservatives. These are mostly, what we call parabens – potent stuff. They affect the body like hormones. Animal tests have shown that in extreme cases these parabens can lead to infertility. Now, is this problem with the body care products becoming one of those “if I were to listen to all the warnings of what’s bad for me I wouldn’t use anything”? Well, I would say it all depends….

多麼美妙的夢想：一個會自己產生所需能量的裝置。這是永動機的夢想，一個絕對尚未完成的夢想。哈囉，歡迎收看另一集的《牛頓系列》。曾經有一段時期，煉金術師試圖人工製造出黃金。那個目標早就已經被拋棄，但是永動機的概念仍然與我們同在。輪子、擺錘、磁鐵、重力和熱，都曾用來嘗試打造一種裝置，這種裝置一旦啟動就會持續運轉，不需要任何外部能源。這項挑戰是要智勝物理學，即使在今天也仍然是無人能夠忽視的挑戰。

What a wonderful dream: a device which itself generates the energy it needs. It’s the dream of a perpetuum mobile and a dream that is by no means finished. Hello and welcome to another edition of “Newton”. There was a time when alchemist tried to produce gold artificially. That goal has long since been abandoned. But the concept of the perpetuum mobile is still with us. Wheels, pendulums, magnets, the force of gravity, and heat of all been used in the attempt to create a device which, once started up, would constantly run without any external source of energy. The challenge is to outsmart physics. Even today it’s a challenge no-one can ignore.

哈囉，歡迎收看另一集的《牛頓系列》。今天我們將著眼最新的烹飪風潮：用土壤來做菜！是的，你沒有聽錯：用一般菜園土來做菜！同樣地，我們也將一窺我們的營養未來：因斯布魯克大學的科學家正在準備昆蟲當餐點的食材。最後你也將受邀參加晚餐。我們將進行數位烹飪，並使用最先進的高科技廚房設備。但我必須告訴你，就連最新的烹飪輔助也無法真的讓烹飪變得極為簡單。

Hello and welcome to another edition of Newton. Today we’ll be focusing on the latest culinary hit: cooking with soil! Yes, you heard correctly: cooking with ordinary garden soil! And, along the same lines, we’ll be taking a look at our nutritional future: scientists at the University of Innsbruck are preparing insects as ingredients in meals. To end with you’ll also be invited for dinner. We’ll be doing some digital cooking and using state-of-the-art high-tech kitchen equipment. But I must tell you that even the very latest culinary aids don’t really make cooking fool-proof.

在20世紀初，僅有一成的世界人口住在城市，如今這數字已經達到五成。到了這個世紀末，人們將是以城市為主的物種。都市時代已經開始了，但是未來的城市應該是什麼樣子呢？它們應該如何運作？都市計劃師大致上都同意它們應該要環保、高效率、技術先進、更重要的是具永續性。他們正在為這個目標規劃未來的智慧城市。

At the start of the 20th century, just 10 percent of the world's population lived in cities. Today this figure already stands at 50 percent. By the end of this century, humanity will be an overwhelmingly urban species. The Urban Age has begun. But what should the cities of the future look like? How should they function? Urban planners are broadly in agreement that they should be green, efficient, technologically advanced, and above all sustainable, and to this end are planning the smart cities of the future.

手機的輻射到底是什麼情形？它真的會威脅到我們的健康嗎？那麼占卜棒呢？它們真的能帶我們找到水脈嗎？哈囉，歡迎收看新一集的《牛頓系列》。有些現象在我們聽起來很好，我們樂於接受並傳遞出去，卻不曾查驗一切是否真如聲稱。不過你可能會說調查其實是電視台科學節目的工作，好比《牛頓系列》。我必須承認你說得對極了，所以現在加入我們，尋找科學的迷思與傳說之謎。

“So what’s the situation regarding the radiation from cellphones? Can it really threaten our health? And what about divining rods? Can they actually lead us to water veins? Hello and welcome to a new edition of “Newton”. There are phenomena that sound good to us. We willingly accept them and pass them on without ever checking that everything is as it is claimed to be. You might say, though, that research is actually the task of a science programme in ORF, like Newton. And I must admit that you’re perfectly right. So join us now in a search for the mysteries of scientific myths and legends.

哈囉，歡迎收看新一集的《牛頓系列》！今天我們著眼於搖頭丸、古柯鹼等毒品。我們幾乎沒有一天不在報紙或網路上讀到，某個後院又破獲了小型大麻種植園，或是在機場沒收了數公斤的古柯鹼。上週我們得知格拉茲一名十五歲少女不幸死亡，她在混用了毒性藥物後死去。目前世界各地正在進行一項近八萬人的大調查，以準確得知他們服用哪些毒品。科學家警告有越來越多設計師藥物出現在市面上。它們有什麼作用？它們又有多危險呢？

Hello and welcome to a new edition of “Newton”! Today we focus on Ecstasy, coke, and co. Barely a day goes by without us reading in the newspaper or on the internet that once again a small hemp plantation has been discovered in some backyard or that several kilogrammes of cocaine have been seized at an airport. Last week we learnt of the tragic death of a fifteen year old girl in Graz who died after consuming a toxic drugs cocktail. A giant survey is currently being carried out world-wide involving nearly 80,000 people as to precisely which drugs they are taking. Scientists are warning that more and more designer drugs are appearing on the market. What effect do they have? And how dangerous are they?

最近真的開始下雪了，正好趕上期中假期。這很快就讓我們忘記，我們有多常悻悻然地抱怨雪太少了不能夠滑雪或玩單板滑雪。哈囉，歡迎收看最新一集的《牛頓系列》。在奧地利，如今要找到一個不使用人造雪的滑雪區是相當罕見的。奧地利山區預估有超過兩萬台雪砲，以這種方式揮霍的能源和水量十分龐大！更重要的是，你實在無法拿人造雪跟極佳的自然粉雪相比。但科學正狂熱地研發替代品，像是一種雲室，它會人工製造出最為細緻的粉雪。我們來深入了解吧！

It’s really starting to snow - just in time for the half-term holidays. That soon makes us forget how often we have complained bitterly about too little snow for skiing or snowboarding. Hello and welcome to our latest edition of NEWTON. In Austria it is pretty rare these days to find a skiing area that is not supplied with artificial snow. It is estimated that there are more than twenty thousand snow cannon in our Austrian mountains. The amount of energy and water squandered in this way is simply enormous! What is more, you can’t really compare artificial snow with superb, natural powder snow. But science is feverishly working on alternatives - like a kind of cloud chamber which produces the finest powder snow artificially. Let’s find out more!
