Hannah goes back to the time of the ancient Greeks to find out why they were so fascinated by the connection between beautiful music and mathematics; the patterns our ancestors found in music are all around us.
Hannah travels down the fastest zip wire in the world to learn more about Newton's ideas on gravity; his discoveries revealed the movement of the planets was regular and predictable.
Hannah explores a paradox at the heart of modern mathematics, discovered by Bertrand Russell, which undermines the very foundations of logic that all of mathematics is built on; these flaws suggest that mathematicss might just be a human language.
