«BILLIG UND LIEBLOS» Wir finden Olympische Spiele eine der besten Ideen überhaupt. Zusammen waren wir an acht Olympischen Spielen – Bruno Saile als Athlet, ich als Sportredaktorin. Was wir an den Winterspielen 2026 in Mailandund Cortina gesehen haben, geht in eine falsche Richtung. Unser Fazit: «Billig und lieblos». Wir waren vor Ort, in der Vorwoche in Mailand und zu den Wettkämpfen in Livigno.Was ist uns aufgefallen?Was haben auch Athleten kritisiert?Wer profitiert von den 8 Milliarden Einnahmen des IOC innerhalb eines Olympischen Zyklus? MORDDROHUNGEN UND ABGEFACKELTES BOOTSHAUS Ausserdem: Ich erinnere mich an einzigartige, wertige und freudvolle Winterspiele in Lillehammer 1994. Brunos Erlebnisse mit einer Abreise 1980 an die Spiele in Moskau inkognito und mit vorausgegangenen Morddrohungen gegen einen Teamkameraden und einem abgefackelten Bootshaus zeigen, das Olympische Spiele sich in einem extremen Spannungsfeld befinden. Unsere Eindrücke sind unsere Eindrücke, unsere Erfahrungen sind unsere Erfahrungen – und keine wissenschaftlichen Abhandlungen. ___________⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TriStory⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: ⁠https://tristory.news.blog/___________TriStory ist auf ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠und ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠___________Kontakt⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tristory@gmx.ch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠___________Die finanzielle Unterstützung von TriStory ist gernemöglich.

Europa batte Italia 10-3 in questa andata dei playoff di Champions League: arriva anche la sconfitta dell'Inter a Bodo per 3-1. Ne parliamo con Fabrizio Biasin. Mentre l'Inter perdeva in Norvegia, il Milan pareggiava in casa col Como e Allegri e Fabregas si punzecchiavano tra campo e zona mista. Ci raggiunge Carlo Pellegatti per il racconto della serata rossonera.

Nog een halve week te gaan en dan zijn de Winterspelen in Milaan en Cortina d'Ampezzo alweer voorbij gevlogen. In Livigno staat nog steeds het Staatsloterij Casa Olanda van de Nederlandse Ski Vereniging.

We gingen onder meer hierover in gesprek met Herbert Cool, die naast Eurosport commentator en Head of Development & Partnerships bij de NSkiV, ook de geestelijk vader is van Casa Olanda. Presentatie: Robert Denneman

A high stakes Federal Court case between Coles and the consumer watchdog is getting underway, which could dramatically reshape what Australians pay at the checkout.The ACCC is accusing the supermarket giant of ripping off customers with "illusory" or fake discounts: hiking prices for a short period of time, before dropping them for their "Down Down" promotion.Coles claims the price rises were justified, citing high inflation and supplier demands.  The federal treasurer still isn't ruling out changes to the capital gains tax discount on investment properties.Officials from the treasury department have all but confirmed they've provided options to the government about how to reduce spending and improve equality in the housing market. Jim Chalmers has again downplayed the possibility of changes but says generational inequality is a key focus of the government.Meanwhile new opposition leader Angus Taylor has written to the Prime Minister requesting a bipartisan taskforce be set up... to find areas to trim in the upcoming budget. Skier Matt Graham has headlined day nine of the Winter Olympics for Australia, claiming bronze in the dual mogul skiing in Livigno. Elsewhere, 16-year-old Ally Hickman has qualified for the final of the women's slopestyle although 2022 bronze medallist Tess Coady missed out.And snowboarders Josie Baff and Adam Lambert have fallen just short of adding to Australia's medal tally, finishing fourth in the big final of the mixed team cross.

Siamo nel cuore delle Olimpiadi e le immagini che arrivano da Cortina, Bormio, Livigno, Predazzo, Tesero e Anterselva raccontano sport, fatica ed emozione. Ma ogni territorio che ospita le gare custodisce anche un'altra storia: quella delle sue cucine, dei prodotti locali, delle tradizioni che si tramandano da generazioni. In questa puntata di Obiettivo Salute in tavola partiamo per un viaggio tra gusto, identità e benessere. Con il professor Stefano Erzegovesi, nutrizionista e psichiatra, scopriamo cosa significa nutrirsi in montagna, tra energia, resistenza ed equilibrio. Con la professoressa Marta Villa, docente di antropologia culturale dei domini collettivi e dei territori di vita del dipartimento di sociologia e ricerca sociale, Università di Trento, entriamo nelle tradizioni culturali dei territori olimpici, per capire come il cibo racconti comunità, memoria e territorio. Dalle piste alla tavola, perché anche il gusto è parte dell'esperienza olimpica.

More than 141,000 children are in kinship care in England and Wales. According to new research from the charity Kinship, 40% of kinship carers are forced to claim benefits or increase their benefits when they step in to take on the care of a child from a family member. To explain why some kinship carers want the same parental rights as others in a parental role, like an adoptive parent, Clare McDonnell is joined by the CEO of Kinship, Lucy Peake and carer Nash, who took on the permanent care of her sister's children after her sister died.Broadcaster, model and activist Ashley James says she's always been underestimated and often written off as a ‘bimbo'. But now she's reclaiming the word as the title of her new book, which explores many of the judgmental labels used to describe women and their life choices. From 'bossy' to 'mumsy' to 'silly girl', Ashley joined Clare to unpack the impact such words can have on women and girls and why she hopes opening up about her own experiences will inspire others to stop shrinking and shake them off.Team GB snowboarder Mia Brookes gave an amazing performance coming fourth in the women's snowboard big air final at the Winter Olympics in Italy. The 19-year-old had been hoping to become Great Britain's first gold medallist on snow. She went for a backside 1620 trick - featuring four-and-a-half rotations - and landed before she over-rotated and her heel edge caught in the snow. Mia's mum, Vicky Brookes, joined presenter Nuala McGovern on the line from her campervan in Livigno close to the Olympic venue.Deborah Douglas has written a memoir about her experience as a victim turned campaigner in one of the biggest scandals in British medical history. Her story sits at the centre of the case of disgraced breast surgeon Ian Paterson, jailed in 2017 for performing harmful and unnecessary operations on women who believed they were being treated for cancer. An inquiry in 2020 found both NHS and private hospitals missed repeated chances to stop him. Deborah joined Clare to discuss The Cost of Trust.A new exhibition at the Charles Dickens museum celebrates the women who influenced the great Victorian novelist's female characters, social commentary and campaigning to improve the lives of vulnerable women. But how does this sit alongside the other, darker narrative, that Dickens himself was a misogynist who mistreated his own wife? To sort the fact from the fiction, the exhibition curator Kirsty Parsons & the historian Professor Jenny Hartley joined Nuala to discuss.Presenter: Clare McDonnell Producer: Annette Wells

Sigls spectaculars giu d'ina schanza da 55 meters cun rotaziuns ch'ins vegn be sturn da guardar – quai è stà il final dal Big Air als gieus olimpics a Livigno, paucs kilometers davent da la Svizra. E là ha il reporter Claudio Spescha vulì esser da la partida en il public. Ma co fan ins quai ina sonda il favrer, cura che blers van en vacanzas da skis – e ch'igl ha gia bler traffic senza gieus olimpics? Claudio Spescha è ì tuttina. Tanschi per esser ad uras a Livigno e sfunsar en l'atmosfera olimpica – u datti in caos da traffic sin las vias grischunas? Tenor il concept dal chantun Grischun èsi da quintar cun fin 4000 visitadras e visitaders supplementars en confrunt cun il traffic normal da la stagiun auta. Il chantun Grischun ha mess en pe in concept da traffic per 5,5 milliuns francs per pudair transportar las persunas che vulan ir a Livigno – Livigno ch'è accessibel l'enviern be tras il tunnel da Munt la Schera cun unicamain in vial. Ins ha installà: quatter areals da park & ride cun tut il persunal necessari, curs supplementars da la Viafier retica tras il tunnel dal Vereina, ina colliaziun spessa d'autos da posta tranter Zernez/Müstair e Livigno che basegna 30 manischunzs d'autos da posta supplementars. Tge portan quels gieus olimpics al Grischun, auter che traffic e custs per manischar quel – senza avair la garanzia che l'Italia sa participeschia lura propi a quels custs? Ed insumma: n'èn gieus olimpics fin ussa betg stads per regla ina show bombastica cun in lung barbagiat da custs starmentus per ils pajataglias ed ina massa indrizs che daventan ruinas? L'Italia ha vulì impedir quai cun far gieus decentrals en plirs lieus – insatge che la Svizra vul forsa era far il 2038. Perquai èn ils gieus olimpics 2026 a Livigno, Milaun, Cortina ed auters lieus er in test per la Svizra. Ma funcziuna quai propi – senza ruinas e custs stravagads? Era quai fatschenta Claudio Spescha sin ses viadi a Livigno. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spektakuläre Sprünge von einer 55 Meter hohen Schanze, mit Rotationen, bei denen einem schwindelig wird – das war das Finale des Big Air bei den Olympischen Spielen in Livigno, wenige Kilometer von der Schweiz entfernt. Und dort wollte Reporter Claudio Spescha im Publikum mit dabei sein. Doch wie macht man das an einem Samstag im Februar, wenn viele in den Skiurlaub fahren – und es ohnehin schon viel Verkehr hat, ohne Olympische Spiele? Claudio Spescha ist trotzdem gefahren. Ob es wohl reicht, um pünktlich in Livigno zu sein und in die olympische Atmosphäre einzutauchen – oder gibt es ein Verkehrschaos auf den Bündner Strassen? Gemäss dem Konzept des Kantons Graubünden ist mit bis zu 4000 zusätzlichen Besucherinnen und Besuchern zum normalen Hochsaisonverkehr zu rechnen. Um den erwarteten Ansturm zu bewältigen, hat der Kanton Graubünden für 5,5 Millionen Franken ein Verkehrskonzept auf die Beine gestellt: vier Park & Ride-Areale, inklusive des notwendigen Personals, zusätzliche Kurse der Rhätischen Bahn durch den Vereinatunnel und eine dichte Postautoverbindung zwischen Zernez/Müstair und Livigno, die 30 zusätzliche Chauffeure benötigt. Was bringen diese Olympischen Spiele Graubünden, ausser Verkehr und Kosten für dessen Bewältigung und der Ungewissheit, ob sich Italien dann auch wirklich adäquat an diesen Kosten beteiligt? Waren Olympische Spiele bisher nicht in der Regel eine kurze bombastische Show, gefolgt von einem langen Rattenschwanz an enormen Kosten für die Steuerzahler und einer Menge Einrichtungen, die zu Ruinen geworden sind? Italien wollte dies verhindern, indem es dezentrale Spiele an mehreren Orten veranstaltete – etwas, das die Schweiz 2038 auch tun möchte. Deshalb sind die Olympischen Spiele 2026 in Livigno, Mailand, Cortina und anderen Orten auch ein Test für die Schweiz. Doch funktioniert das wirklich? Auch das beschäftigt Claudio Spescha auf seiner Reise nach Livigno.

Australia's Josie Baff has made history at the Winter Olympics, claiming gold in the women's snowboard cross in Livigno.

The mother of Winter Olympic champion Cooper Woods has paid credit to her son's drive and focus after his ground-breaking gold medal in Livigno.Woods has become just the seventh Australian to top the podium in the history of the winter games, only narrowly defeating Canada's Mikael Kingsbury in the final of the men's mogul skiing.Woods himself says his discipline helped him win Australia's first gold at this year's Olympics.Liberal politicians are preparing to head into a leadership meeting this morning that's set to decide the future of the party at a time when dire polling points to a battle for its own survival.The party's expected to roll its first federal female leader Sussan Ley who's been opposition leader for nine months while the Coalition reels from its thumping election defeat at the hands of Labor.Angus Taylor appears to have the upper hand and if he succeeds it's expected he'll reward supporters with promotions including to former frontbenchers, Jane Hume and Jacinta Nampijinpa Price.And more intense rainfall is expected in Queensland's south-east today, as residents sandbag to prepare for heavy rain and dangerous flooding into the weekend.A severe weather warning stretches from the Sunshine Coast to the Gold Coast and west through southern Queensland.Authorities are warning residents to stay indoors where possible in preparation for a drenching. 

Emma Weiß ist Profi-Skifahrerin - aber nicht in der alpinen Abfahrt oder mit Langlauf-Skiern, sondern "Freestyle": ein Spektakel bei Olympia. Die Sportlerin aus Albstadt ist erst fast eine Woche nach dem Start der Olympischen Spiele nach Norditalien angereist. Emma Weiß' Spezialität sind die "Aerials", also Saltos und Drehungen in der Luft. Damit ist sie als einzige deutsche Teilnehmerin am Start, wenn am Fastnachtsdienstag in Livigno die Qualifikation beginnt. Im Gespräch mit SWR Aktuell-Moderator Stefan Eich hat sie erklärt, wie spektakulär diese Sportart sein kann.

Support appears to be firming for Angus Taylor to win the Liberal leadership, as those behind current opposition leader Sussan Ley privately paint a grim picture of her chances.At nine o'clock today, federal Liberal MPs and senators will hold a meeting to vote on a leadership spill.Yesterday there was a run of high-profile resignations from the shadow ministry, including Michalea Cash, James Paterson, Jonno Duniam, and Dan Tehan.Sussan Ley's been opposition leader for nine months, and is the first woman to head up the Liberals at a federal level.The federal government's announced $87 million over four years to support survivors of the stolen generations.The funding will go towards services such as family tracing and reunification, health, and access to redress.More than a hundred survivors are also gathering at federal parliament house this morning to mark the 18th anniversary of the national apology to the Stolen Generations made by former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.More intense rainfall is expected in Queensland's south east today.The weather bureau's warning heavy rain could lead to dangerous flash flooding.Meanwhile the full extent of damage is being assessed after flash flooding in Alice Springs in central Australia.The Trump administration's ending the immigration crackdown in the US state of Minnesota that led to thousands of arrests, violent protests and the fatal shootings of two US citizens over the past two months.Donald Trump's border tsar Tom Homan claims it was the largest immigration enforcement operation ever, touting it as a success.But the actions of ICE immigration officers attracted global outrage after they fatally shot Renee Good and Alex Pretti in the city of Minneapolis.And Cooper Woods has become just the seventh Australian to win gold in Winter Olympic history, triumphing in the men's mogul skiing in Livigno.The 25-year-old came into the event having never won a world cup event, but registered a score of 83.71, level with Canada's Mikael Kingsbury.Woods was declared the winner based on the turns component, while fellow Australians Matt Graham and Jackson Harvey finished in fifth and eighth respectively.

Nel corso di Degiornalist - Gli Spaccanotizie di oggi, 11 febbraio, è stato ospite dei nostri Fabiana e Claudio Chiari su Radio Number One Erich Bruno Ciapponi, inventore del celebre bombardino! Bevanda a base di panna, zabaione caldo, brandy e caffè. Ex direttore del rifugio Mottolino, nella zona di Livigno, Ciapponi ha cominciato a raccontare la storia del tanto bombardino: «Il nome è nato nell'inverno del 1972 durante una riunione fatta dai direttori delle stazioni invernali Mottolino-Livigno, è stato un dirigente toscano del Monte Amiata a proporre "bombardino", che come bevanda, però, è nata già tempo prima». È stato Aldo Del Bò, per essere precisi, il primo a raffreddare la bevanda con il whisky! Altrimenti non riusciva a bere il bombardino velocemente. Ne nascerà una versione analcolica? Erich Bruno Ciapponi ha detto questo: «Ci sono quattro-cinque distillerie in Inghilterra che stanno procudendo whisky analcolico, si cerca ora di trovare il sistema di pastorizzazione delle uova per poi creare un "bombardino zero", è un'idea nel cassetto da tempo».

Bald geht es los mit den 25. Olympischen Winterspielen in Norditalien. Wo finden die vielen Wettkämpfe statt und was ist beim Wetter zu erwarten? Es gibt acht Orte, an denen Wetterkämpfe sowie Eröffnungs- und Schlussfeiern stattfinden werden. Diese befinden sich über die drei Regionen Lombardei, Trentino-Südtirol und Venetien verteilt. Zwischen dem Hauptort Mailand und Antholz im Südtirol, wo um die Biathlon-Medaillen gekämpft wird, liegen Luftlinie fast 300 Kilometer. Auch bezüglich Meereshöhe gibt es grosse Gegensätze. In Verona - die Schlussfeier findet im römischen Amphitheater statt - liegt man nur knapp 60 Meter über dem Meeresspiegel. Der höchstgelegene Austragungsort ist Livigno nahe der Schweizer Grenze mit rund 1800 Meter Höhe. Von mildem Frühlingswetter bis zu tiefstem Winter ist somit alles möglich.

In questa seconda edizione delle Voci del Grigioni italiano dedicata alle Olimpiadi invernali di Milano-Cortina 2026, l'attenzione si concentra su uno dei concetti più ricorrenti nel racconto dei grandi eventi sportivi: la “legacy”, ovvero l'eredità che le Olimpiadi promettono di lasciare ai territori che le ospitano. Ma cosa significa davvero, al di là degli slogan, parlare di eredità olimpica? E soprattutto: per chi?La puntata prende le mosse dalle opere realizzate o programmate in vista dei Giochi, con un focus particolare su Livigno, località che ospiterà le gare di freestyle e snowboard, mentre a Bormio sarà di scena lo sci alpino. Infrastrutture per la mobilità, parcheggi interrati, nuovi impianti di risalita, collegamenti tra i versanti sciistici, interventi energetici e investimenti nella sanità locale vengono analizzati nel loro insieme, cercando di capire se rispondano a bisogni strutturali dei territori o se siano stati accelerati – e in parte imposti – dal calendario olimpico.Alla voce istituzionale del sindaco, che rivendica scelte condivise e una visione di lungo periodo, abbiamo affiancato quella di un cittadino, operatore turistico ma anche padre di famiglia. Due testimonianze per due sguardi diversi sul futuro di una località alpina che ha fatto passi da gigante negli ultimi decenni e che grazie alle Olimpiadi ha ricevuto oltre 160 milioni di euro da investire sul territorio. Una bella cifra se si considera che la capacità di investimento del comune - situato a oltre 1800 metri di quota - è di circa 2 milioni l'anno. C'è chi parla di un'occasione storica per colmare ritardi infrastrutturali e migliorare la qualità dei servizi, e chi invece denuncia un impatto ambientale pesante, un consumo crescente di risorse e un modello di sviluppo che rischia di superare i limiti di sostenibilità della montagna. Il tema della mobilità, dell'accesso ai servizi sanitari, della pressione turistica e della qualità della vita per i residenti attraversa l'intero racconto.I forti investimenti in tema di sanità fatti a Bormio e Livigno offrono poi lo spunto per allargare lo sguardo alla sanità valtellinese, tra investimenti legati all'evento olimpico e criticità strutturali che restano irrisolte: liste d'attesa, carenza di personale, ospedali dal glorioso passato e dalle grandi potenzialità ma dal futuro incerto. Un capitolo che mette in luce il divario tra interventi straordinari e problemi quotidiani vissuti dalla popolazione.Non mancano infine le voci critiche del giornalismo indipendente, che mettono in discussione il concetto stesso di “legacy olimpica”: opere non pronte per i Giochi, procedure accelerate, valutazioni ambientali semplificate, extracosti e trasparenza. Il racconto si fa così più ampio e problematico, interrogando il rapporto tra grandi eventi, interessi pubblici e privati, e reale coinvolgimento dei territori.Una puntata che non offre risposte definitive, ma prova a fare ordine in un dibattito complesso, restituendo la pluralità dei punti di vista. Perché l'eredità dei Giochi non è solo fatta di cemento, impianti e investimenti, ma anche di scelte politiche, conseguenze sociali e domande aperte sul futuro delle comunità alpine.

Emozioni, attesa, eredità; ma anche costi, polemiche, infrastrutture. Tutto questo sono i Giochi Olimpici Invernali di Milano Cortina 2026, un'opportunità, ma anche un banco di prova per il Paese intero. Radio24 vi porta in anteprima sui luoghi dei Giochi, verso il 6 febbraio, giorno dell'apertura ufficiale. Iniziamo dalla Valtellina, con Bormio e Livigno che ospiteranno sci alpino maschile, sci alpinismo, snowboard e freestyle. A guidarci il nostro inviato Dario Ricci.

Le Olimpiadi invernali Milano-Cortina 2026, che si svolgeranno dal 6 al 21 febbraio, rappresentano una sfida cruciale anche per la Valtellina, chiamata a ospitare gare di sci alpino a Bormio e snowboard e freestyle a Livigno. Con 180'000 biglietti in vendita e 3'500 giornalisti attesi, l'attenzione si concentra soprattutto sulla tenuta del sistema della mobilità, messo alla prova da cantieri aperti, opere incompiute e forti contestazioni locali.undefinedLe VOCI, con l'assessore della Regione Lombardia agli enti locali Massimo Sertori (già vicesindaco di Ponte in Valtellina, presidente della Provincia di Sondrio e presidente dell'Unione delle Province lombarde), fanno il punto sulle infrastrutture previste in vista dei Giochi, tra interventi realizzati, rinviati o stralciati. Al centro del confronto, la Statale 38 dello Stelvio, con i progetti dello svincolo di Sassella e del completamento della tangenziale di Sondrio, entrambi rallentati da iter autorizzativi complessi e opposizioni territoriali. Tra i contrari figura anche Barbara Baldini, già sindaca del Comune Montagne in Valtellina, che spiega le ragioni della contrarietà.undefinedAmpio spazio è dedicato anche al caso di Bormio, dove la contestata tangenzialina della piana dell'Alute è stata esclusa dal pacchetto olimpico dopo due ricorsi al Tribunale amministrativo, ma continua a dividere la comunità locale. L'opposizione è guidata da un Comitato popolare che, come spiegano Stefania Trabucchi e Laura Sala, vuole tutelare la zona agricola e l'identità del luogo.undefinedLa trasmissione affronta poi il tema delle limitazioni al traffico, delle ZTL olimpiche attive solo nei giorni di gara e in fasce orarie definite dal 4 al 21 febbraio che avranno un notevole impatto sulle attività di trasporto merci a causa del divieto parziale di transito per i mezzi commerciali in salita da Tirano, come spiega Paolo Oberti della SoLog che non lesina critiche alla gestione della questione, prevedendo che nei giorni delle Olimpiadi la viabilità in Alta Valtellina “sarà un delirio”. Disservizi sono previsti anche a livello ferroviario, poiché, nonostante il previsto potenziamento delle corse sulla linea Lecco-Tirano, la linea incontra sovente problemi di infrastruttura e gestione. A detta dello stesso assessore Massimo Sertori il servizio attualmente “non raggiunge la sufficienza”.undefinedIn chiusura, uno sguardo oltre confine sul contenzioso tra Regione Lombardia e Canton Grigioni per i costi sostenuti dalla Svizzera nel garantire collegamenti agevoli con Livigno, a conferma di come le Olimpiadi abbiano riacceso il dibattito sul futuro della mobilità alpina e transfrontaliera.

Una scoperta di portata internazionale riporta le Alpi al centro della ricerca paleontologica. Nel settembre scorso, nella Valle di Fraele, all'interno del Parco nazionale dello Stelvio, tra Livigno e Bormio, è stato individuato uno dei più vasti e significativi giacimenti di orme di dinosauri del Triassico Superiore mai documentati in Europa. Migliaia di impronte, lasciate circa 210 milioni di anni fa da grandi dinosauri erbivori bipedi e quadrupedi, raccontano il passaggio di branchi in un ambiente allora tropicale, affacciato sull'oceano Tetide.La scoperta, confermata dal Museo di Storia Naturale di Milano, dal MUSE di Trento e dall'Università degli Studi di Milano, si inserisce in un quadro più ampio di ricerche che interessa l'intero arco alpino, con importanti ritrovamenti anche in Svizzera: dalle impronte fossili del Parco Ela e dell'Engadina, ai grandi giacimenti del Giura, fino ai celebri fossili marini del Monte San Giorgio, patrimonio mondiale UNESCO.Attraverso le voci degli esperti e del fotografo naturalista Elio Della Ferrera che ha individuato il sito, la trasmissione racconta una ricerca che guarda al passato remoto, ma che apre interrogativi sul comportamento dei dinosauri, sull'evoluzione degli ecosistemi alpini e, più in generale, sulla storia profonda del nostro pianeta.

Il presidente del Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, che governa il Paese illegalmente, è stato arrestato per ordine del presidente americano Donald Trump che lo accusa di organizzare il traffico di droga verso gli Stati Uniti. Organizzare un'azione simile in una nazione straniera, anche se molto disastrata e governata da un dittatore, è un fatto fuori dall'ordinario e fa discutere. Ma Trump tira dritto e pensa alla Groenlandia. In questa puntata parliamo della tragedia di Crans-Montana, una località sciistica della Svizzera dove, durante una festa per il Capodanno, hanno perso la vita 40 ragazzi. Con il 2026 la Bulgaria ha iniziato a usare l'euro come moneta nazionale, mentre a Las Vegas si presentano le più innovative trovate tecnologiche. Infine: ormai manca poco alle Olimpiadi invernali che si terranno in Italia; a Livigno tutto è pronto a parte… le marmotte
