Across the world's oceans, the health of entire ecosystems can depend on the smallest of creatures.
To find blue whales, scientists first need to find their prey. Taking to the skies, an aerial survey reveals vast swarms of krill gathering at the surface, helping guide the search below. From above, the team witnesses an extraordinary spectacle. Racing towards dense patches of krill, blue whales perform a feeding behaviour known as lunge feeding, opening their enormous mouths to engulf huge volumes of prey in a single gulp.
With krill abundant, the signs are encouraging. The sight of a mother and calf offers a hopeful glimpse into the health of the ecosystem, and a reminder of the delicate connections that sustain life in our oceans.
Narrated by Auliʻi Cravalho, set sail across all five ocean basins in Expedition: Saving Our Seas, premiering Saturday 14th November, on @disneyplusuk and on Sunday 15th November at 6pm on #NationalGeographic UK

Today we remember the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989, a historic moment that marked the end of decades of division between East and West Berlin. As people gathered to cross a border that had separated families, friends and communities for nearly three decades, the Wall became a powerful symbol of freedom, unity and the power of people to shape history.

A partial recovery restores some hope, but the aircraft remains dangerously fast. What follows is a tense high-speed approach into Hong Kong, where the crew's skill and composure are pushed to the limit in a race against disaster.

Gone, but never forgotten. 🛕 Today marks the anniversary of the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb on 4 November 1922.
Tutankhamun was only nine years old when he became king. As he grew older, he portrayed himself as a warrior pharaoh, riding into battle on a chariot. But behind the image of strength, the boy king suffered from multiple illnesses and unexpectedly died at just 19 years old. His tomb, filled with unimaginable treasures, became the only known royal tomb in the Valley of the Kings to survive untouched, while countless others were looted throughout history.

National Geographic Explorer, @bertiegregory returns to the frozen wilderness of Hudson Bay to reunite with Kona and his Arctic wolf pack. Winter is their most punishing season, when scarce food and extreme conditions push the wolves to their limits.
When a lone black wolf appears, tensions quickly rise. Outnumbered by the established group, the newcomer turns and runs, setting off a breathtaking pursuit across the snow. Yet even with the pack in full flight behind it, the black wolf proves astonishingly fast, surging ahead and leaving its pursuers far behind.
The encounter highlights a vital truth about life in the Arctic: in a landscape where every challenge carries risk, the strength of the pack is often the key to survival.

Happy World #Jellyfish Day! 🪼
Today we're celebrating the incredible diversity of jellyfish, from their amazing variety of shapes and colours to their trailing stinging tentacles. Despite having no brain, heart or bones, these fascinating creatures have been drifting through our oceans for more than 500 million years, making them even older than the dinosaurs.
