Nino would rather be outside playing than stuck inside doing homework—especially science homework. Then he discovers that one of the greatest scientists ever started out feeling the same way: Albert Einstein—the guy who invented that famous formula: E=mc2. And, as Ariane explains, there was a lot more to Einstein than just formulas. Thanks to him, we have GPS devices and electric gates, nuclear energy and ... well, yes, also nuclear bombs. Einstein did everything he could to make the world a better place—but after all, he was only human!

Nino is busy ... with an Easter egg hunt! No sooner does he find one than he wants to eat it ... But if he does that, Ariane warns, he pretty soon won't have any left ... and that's what's happening with oil. We're consuming it so fast, supplies could run out by the end of this century. So why is everyone in pursuit of this "black gold"? Ariane explains what it's used for, how the "oil rush" started, and who the key players were in its history—a relatively short history that rapidly changed the world!
