This episode highlights the personal account of Jackie Nichols, who would end up in a Japanese prison for several years. It is known to be a very strict prison system.

While it\'s long been believed that both your body and your brain deteriorate over time, recent studies show that may not always be the case. Some brain functions improve as we get older, while others don’t fully develop until later in life. In this episode, we explore your brain and how it doesn’t always act its age. Through a series of games and experiments, you\'ll discover how your daily routines might be aging your brain, and how you can actually slow down the clock.

This is a show about your brain and how it perceives motion. Evolving in a world that is constantly moving, the human brain had to develop a pretty sophisticated sense of motion in order to survive. This episode stops to ask some deceptively simple questions-What really is motion? Is the movement that you see real? Or is the wiring of your brain\'s motion detectors merely being fooled? We explore the science behind how your brain detects and interprets motion, and you\'ll see how easily this hard-wiring can be fooled... for better and for worse.

Covering more than 300,000 square metres, the John Deere factory houses more than 2000 employees, 49 robotic welders, eight laser cutters and 14 kilometres of overhead track, all of which help stamp, press, cut and weld 60,000 tons of steel into the John Deere STS Combine a harvesting mega-machine. To begin the process, extremely precise laser cutters are used to create a majority of this mini-factory on wheels 17,000 parts. Assemblers then create the combines 450 kilogram cylinder and its massive grain tank. The factory uses nearly 400 tonnes of welding wire each year enough wire to circle the globe. When the combine has been assembled and is ready for painting, it undergoes a seven-hour process to receive the trademark John Deere green colour. When John Deere decides to update its tractors design, the modification is first tested in the factorys state-of-the-art virtual reality lab to measure the potential impact to the assembly line process, saving both time and money. With its 21st century technology and human innovation, the John Deere mega factory shows the raw power behind one of agricultures most vital machines.

A pocos minutos de despegar del aeropuerto JFK de Nueva York, el vuelo 800 de TWA es destrozado por una enorme explosión. Con un posible ataque terrorista entre manos, el FBI se une a los investigadores del NTSB en la búsqueda urgente de respuestas. Ambas agencias esperan obtener resultados rápidamente, pero la investigación sobre el Vuelo 800 de TWA finalmente se enzarzará en un enfrentamiento entre ellas y se convertirá en una de las más largas, costosas y desafiantes jamás realizadas.

Después de que un vuelo de cercanías a Detroit termine en una angustiosa espiral de muerte, depende de los investigadores determinar la causa y evitar que vuelva a suceder. Buscan pistas entre los restos destrozados del accidente y finalmente el análisis detallado de los datos de vuelo les lleva a una conclusión impresionante. Que lo que condenó al vuelo 3272 es un peligro conocido por la industria aeronáutica desde hace años.

Este programa nos cuenta la historia real de las investigaciones aeronáuticas pioneras que se llevaron a cabo en las instalaciones de Groom Lake, más conocida como el Área 51. Este documental utiliza documentos de la CIA recientemente desclasificados.
