Argentina makes some of the finest wines in the world, but it's also quickly establishing itself as a technological giant in South America. The MegaWorld team will visit CONAE a civilian agency that builds and launches communication satellites for clients all over the world. We'll get a rare, up-close look at one of these huge communication devices and find out exactly what goes into manufacturing them. We'll visit the world's only factory that makes...

Exploring how we have been redesigning the planet as we build ever more astonishing places to live. In Dubai, we climb to the very top of the world's tallest building—over half a mile above the desert sand—to help clean the highest windows in the world. In China, the rate of change is accelerating as millions move into the cities; to keep pace, they have learned to erect 30-storey buildings in under three weeks. The world is changing underneath...

Nina and her five senses, the Neurons, enlist the help of two young engineers to explore how boats get uphill. They visit canal locks and then build a model in the workshop. A BBC Production.

Explore the revolutionary engineering behind Paris’s iconic landmark. Completed in just over two years for the 1889 World’s Fair, the iron tower smashed the record for the tallest structure on Earth, ushering in a new age of global construction that reached for the skies. How did the engineers do it? Follow the innovations, successes and failures that made this building possible.

A tragic bridge collapse in Miami echoes a similar event in Minnesota over a decade ago, one of the first signs of America’s growing infrastructure problem.

Nina uses her five senses, the Neurons, to explore how bridges are built with her young engineerhelpers. They demonstrate how arches can support and hold up bridges as they build arch bridges and a suspension bridge. A BBC Production.

Three blue-collar geniuses challenge each other with various puzzles and problems to determine who is The Smartest Guy in the Room. Terry and Guy must build self-propelling boats made of materials found on an ice cream truck. Randy competes head to head with them in a weights and measurements challenge.

"From the "Bungee Zone" in British Columbia to New York Harbor's Verranzano Narrows Bridge (one of the longest suspension bridges in the world), our daredevil host, Bill Nye, goes to any length to prove the structural principles of tension and compression"--Container.

We visit an amazing combination bridge - the Oresund Bridge linking Malmo, Sweden and Copenhagen, Denmark. Here engineers had to build an artificial island to link the bridges and house an underground tunnel. As the amazing engineering behind the Oresund combination bridge is explored, we'll uncover the high stakes involved in building the world's largest, most complex bridges.
