Could a sophisticated civilization simply vanish overnight? For over 2,000 years, the story of Atlantis has captivated the world. In this episode of Naked Science, we travel from the megalithic temples of Malta and the mysterious underwater formations of the Bahamas to the volcanic ruins of Santorini. Using modern geology and marine engineering, we investigate the cataclysmic events — tsunamis, earthquakes, and eruptions — that could have inspired Plato’s legend. Is Atlantis a hidden truth waiting to be discovered, or history’s most successful myth?
