The first S100 television programme included some fundamental discussions such as “what is a laboratory?” The programme also explored the differences between modern research science (in 1971) and historical equivalents, both limited by available technology.

Today we can see the further development of technology with the online laboratories of the OU. Visit the OpenScience Laboratory online to see some of the current work in Science at The Open University, such as the virtual microscope.
