17. The Golden Spike
Uncharted with Hannah Fry
At a conference in Mexico, one scientistโs outburst launches a global quest.
Hannah Fry follows a group of researchers on the hunt for a โgolden spikeโ: the boundary, marking a shift into a dramatic new geological period dominated, not by volcanoes and asteroids, but the influence of humans.
From plastics and concrete to nuclear fallout, the data they uncover reveals a planet profoundly changed. But can these scientists persuade their colleagues - and the world?
