The DHARMA Initiative Explained

This video unpacks the entire history of The DHARMA Initiative from their conception through to their destruction. Many major mysteries in the show were connected to DHARMA, and we will explain them all: The Hanso Foundation. The Valenzetti Equation. The DHARMA stations and their various functions. The Hatch, how it works, and its storied history. The Incident that changed everything on the island. The orientation films. The truce with "The Hostiles". The purge that wiped them all out. All of it.
