S1 E1 - Flying Machines
9 luglio 201322minFlying devices take us all around the world and even into space, though the truth about them isn't always clear.

Kennedy don't have all that much in common.Periodo d’uso gratuito di discovery+ o acquistoS1 E7 - The New World
13 agosto 201322minThere is more to the European explorers who discovered America than we have been told. Christopher Columbus never stepped foot in North American, while Hernan Cortes didn't defeat the Aztecs by himself.Periodo d’uso gratuito di discovery+ o acquistoS1 E8 - Roadside Stories
20 agosto 201322minA whole other story is behind the roads and bridges that cross the United States. A women was actually the driving force behind completing the Brooklyn Bridge, and Route 66 wasn't build from scratch.Periodo d’uso gratuito di discovery+ o acquisto
