Engineering Breakthroughs on Land, Sea, and Sky
From the 1801 invention of the world’s first self-propelled vehicle to the world’s fastest train, the experimental L-Zero in Japan capable of 374 miles per hour, on land; Polynesian catamarans and personal submarines pushing the boundaries of what’s possible at sea; the engineer whose invention enabled the Wright brothers to achieve powered flight, as well as the invention of the jet engine; and trailblazing engineers who invented the rocket and the minds now devoted to taking us into deep space; the series explores the highs and lows of what these creators faced in the quest to take us further, higher and above all, faster.
