About this programme.
An invention begins with a problem, an observation or an experiment that does not behave as expected. Adventures In Research turns those moments into short stories about discovery, giving scientific ideas a setting among the people who pursued them. Classic science, invention and radio storytelling Explore vintage science radio and educational drama from the 1940s and 1950s. Sponsored by Westinghouse, the programme features Paul Shannon, with physicist Dr Phillips Thomas associated with its scripts and explanations. Its format developed from questions and answers towards dramatised accounts of inventions and research.
