What does drinking water have to do with roller coasters? Where´s the connection between roller coasters and honey bees? What is it that binds bees and CO2? How could our climate actually depend on Mars?

Mars, often referred to as the "Red Planet," has garnered scientific interest as a potential Earth-like celestial body. While Mars currently has a thin atmosphere composed mainly of carbon dioxide, ongoing research and exploration suggest that it may have once harbored liquid water on its surface. The presence of ancient river channels and lake beds points to a dynamic geological past, fueling speculation about the possibility of past life. Furthermore, Mars experiences seasons similar to Earth due to its axial tilt, and its day length is comparable, with approximately 24.6 hours. Scientists are exploring the potential for terraforming, a process that involves modifying the Martian environment to make it more habitable for humans. Despite the challenges, the exploration of Mars continues to provide valuable insights into the potential for Earth-like conditions on other planets in our solar system.

The knowledge format "Missing Link" highlights a wealth of facts from nature, life and technology - from amphibians to outer space, from large machines to genetic engineering. In each documentary, five objects from the most diverse areas of our universe are taken one after the other under the magnifying glass of knowledge, in order to then uncover the hidden connections between them by means of high-quality, humorous animation pieces. The connections are enigmatic and surprising; only in retrospect do they appear startlingly clear.
