Il saluto di Piero Angela nell’ultima puntata di Superquark

"Piero Angela was very passionate about this documentary on the melting of glaciers, part of the final episode of Superquark 2022. Not only because, as a Turin native, he had a love of the mountains in his blood: he was convinced that this was a fundamental issue for the future of the planet. In mid-July 2022, he started calling us and urging us to complete it. We didn't understand why he was so insistent; there was a kind of anxiety. Then we realized that he felt the end was approaching and wanted to finish it before he passed away." Marco Visalberghi struggles to talk about Piero Angela, whom he calls "a father and a teacher," but he knows how important he considered the documentary that Rai 1 broadcast on Wednesday, August 24, 2022: a final message, enshrining his fears about the future of the planet and his faith in science as a method to address them.
