Modern technology allows for the creation of structures that seem to defy the natural laws of physics. This series examines these structures, revealing the science responsible for their unique designs. In one episode, the international space station is studied, exploring the technology that has allowed scientists to create a life-supporting building beyond Earth's atmosphere. Another episode introduces the Seawolf class submarine, a USA nuclear sub that is larger, faster, and quieter than any sub before it, equipped with eight torpedo tubes and fifty Tomahawk cruise missiles. Super Structures of the World is a riveting series that's perfect for anyone with an interest in industrial design, science, and architecture.MORE
