　　Massive machines require engineering extremes.
　　The massive man-made satellite, commonly known as the International Space Station, hurtling around the Earth at 27,600 km an hour, has been a temporary home for humans for the last 20 years. The biggest land vehicle on earth, a bucket excavator titled Bagger 293, that can move 240,000 cubic meters of dirt each day. Innovation has always meant building bigger, faster, taller, longer and stronger than anything that came before. We’ve seen them in dramatic visual fashion. But how do these actually work? What sets each machine apart. What big ideas drove its evolution and what limitations did this machine overcome? What forces was it built to withstand and where is the breaking point? Using CGI and expert insights, we ‘strip down’ the design of some of the world’s unique colossal machines and reveal mechanical secrets that not only made them work, but also changed the world in a big way!
　　Each episode explores four incredible machines, linked thematically. From sea and space faring designs, to mega airborne, mining and industrial machines, we’ll break down what they can do as well as key inner mechanics and materials that make it all possible. Dynamic archival footage featuring; slow motion, aerials, and time-lapses get us past the ‘caution’ tape and up close and personal with these compound monsters. CGI provides breakouts and blueprints and a look at hidden mechanisms. Adding expertise of structural, mechanical, chemical and forensic engineers to help reveal what’s at stake when these colossal constructions are put work, and how all the pieces come together to make a big impact.

　　这部影片讲述了荷兰著名画家伦勃朗的浪漫情事和职业生涯，并着重讲述了他的代表作《夜巡》的创作过程。伦勃朗一直是上流社会的肖像画家，他拥有接踵而至的订单，美满甜蜜的爱情。直到1642年他的妻子为他生下小儿子不久去世，生活开始大转折。随之而来的是因为为阿姆斯特丹射击手公会画家创作的集体肖像《夜巡》又被顾主告上法庭，使伦勃朗蒙受了事业上最重大的一次挫折。此后他的事业开始衰落，他开始陷于债务之中。人世沧桑、人情冷暖……

　　1959年，美国马塞诸塞州列辛顿威廉道斯小学，该校即将迎来校庆日，小女孩露辛达•安伯利（Lara Robinson 饰）提出的创意为校长所采纳。校庆日时，学生们将画下自己对未来的设想，并集中放入金属时间囊中埋入地下，准备50年后重新开启。校庆日之后，举止怪异的露辛达用鲜血在墙上写下奇怪文字，并向老师提出警告。
　　2009年，威廉道斯小学再次迎来校庆日，被埋藏地下50年之久的时间囊重见天日。小男孩凯勒（Chandler Canterbury 饰）得到露辛达的信，上面没有任何图画，整页布满毫无规律可言的数字。凯勒的父亲约翰（尼古拉斯•凯奇 Nicolas Cage 饰）夜晚研究这些数字，竟发现这是一组具有预言性的密码。文中的数字清楚记录了世界上过去50年所发生的各种灾难。除此之外，这组数字还包括了接下来将发生的重大灾难……
