Is the ultimate guide to everything. No wonder it s one of the most popular science shows on the planet. Ever wondered how they turn sea-water into air on a nuclear submarine? Or how they make the sharpest knives ever created? Or how they build the huge golden satellites that make your sat-nav work? How Do They Do It? has all the answers. From swaying skyscrapers to speeding skydivers, from bullet trains to bullet-proof cars, from digging diamonds beneath a volcano to creating the latest $20 million astronaut suit.
