Mega Manufacturing - Complete Season 1: https://youtu.be/dQDO7KXo0NQ

Flying has always been a dream in the history of humanity. From the myth of Icarus to the liner of the skies, the Airbus A 380, man has long sought to imitate the bird, fascinated by the conquest of the sky. In just five centuries, and with a considerable intensification of technological and theoretical advances in the early nineteenth century, man has achieved an incredible revolution, which has changed his way of living and seeing the world: he has learned to fly. A story of crazy flying - inventors, scientists - pursuing their quest very often at the risk of their lives. And tomorrow? Researchers and engineers work on unmanned aircraft, clean and quiet aircraft, to exploit an already limited airspace.

The Airbus A380 is more advanced than any airliner that has flown before and can fly non-stop a third of the way around the world. It is three times as long as a blue whale and five times as heavy. The tip of the plane tail is as tall as an eight storey building. The four Rolls Royce engines, built in Derby, cost the same as four tons of solid gold.

Professor Jim Al-Khalili traces the story of arguably the most important, accurate and yet perplexing scientific theory ever: quantum physics.

The story of quantum physics starts at the beginning of the 20th century with scientists trying to better understand how light bulbs work. This simple question soon led scientists deep into the hidden workings of matter, into the sub-atomic building blocks of the world around us. Here they discovered phenomena unlike any encountered before - a realm where things can be in many places at once, where chance and probability call the shots and where reality appears to only truly exist when we observe it.

Albert Einstein hated the idea that nature, at its most fundamental level, is governed by chance. Jim reveals how in the 1930's, Einstein thought he'd found a fatal flaw in quantum physics. This was not taken seriously until it was tested in the 1960s. Professor Al-Khalili repeats this critical experiment, posing the question does reality really exist, or do we conjure it into existence by the act of observation?

Elsewhere, we explore how the most famous law of quantum physics – The Uncertainty Principle – is obeyed by plants and trees as they capture sunlight during the vital process of photosynthesis. Could quantum mechanics explain the greatest mystery in biology - evolution?

The Avro Lancaster bomber is one of the most iconic planes in British history. It was chosen to carry out Operation Chastise, the Dambusters Raid. Staunch defenses protected the dams from conventional weaponry, but legendary engineer Barnes Wallis realized that if a bomb could bounce along the surface of the water, the dams could be destroyed.
