SHORT- FORM

CAPSULES

Through our web capsules, we cover a diversity of scientific stories in short format, highlighting fascinating subjects in a vivid, accessible way. Designed for social media, these videos mix extracts from our documentaries, original content, and behind-the-scenes glimpses — a dynamic format to spark curiosity and share knowledge.

GUARDIANS OF MENJEZ | THE MEGALITHS

Did you know that over 100 megalithic tombs are scattered across this small plateau in northern Lebanon? Built 6,000 years ago, these "houses of the dead" were entirely carved from dark volcanic basalt. How did a prehistoric community manage such an ambitious construction project?

The Scilex (the science lexicon) is now on video format. 🎬
You knew the format. Now it moves, it talks, it makes science click — on screen. In each episode, we take the words of science and finally make them clear, with Giovan Peyrotty (Director of SciencEscape). Comparisons, definitions, misconceptions...
First up: Geography vs Geology.
