Synopsis
Star Power – Scott Pelley goes inside Lawrence Livermore Laboratory's National Ignition Facility, home of the world's largest laser, which recently reported a breakthrough in fusion research. It's a step towards realizing a new source of clean energy. Hide and Seek – The tiny island nation of Cyprus in the eastern Mediterranean has long been a financial hub of choice for wealthy Russians to move their rubles offshore. But, this practice is now under intense scrutiny by U.S. and EU investigators looking for the hidden overseas wealth of sanctioned Russian oligarchs. Sharyn Alfonsi reports from Cyprus to follow the money and speak with Cyprus politicians and U.S. prosecutors untangling this intricate international flow of funds. The Guru – Anderson Cooper profiles prolific music producer Rick Rubin, a tastemaker who guides his artists to tap into their creativity with the most unorthodox approach – using practices like meditation to shape the work rather than marketing to the masses.
