ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In 2016, the UN declared internet access a basic human right. Five years later, vast swathes of the world are still starved for connectivity. We've tried everything to solve this problem; from swarms of satellites to giant, unpiloted balloons. But the best solution might also be the most ambitious.
