Discover the essential role engineering plays in the world around us in the all-new, three-part NOVA series, Building Stuff.
In three one-hour episodes, the series follows some of the most creative engineering experts as they build stuff that helps extend our range, amplify our abilities and alter our environment for the better. The series, which will also be available for streaming at pbs.org/nova, NOVA on YouTube and on the PBS app, invites audiences to experience the ups and downs with engineers as they design, build and test their way through challenges, inspiring the inner “maker” in all of us.
Building Stuff premieres 8 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13 on PBS Wisconsin.
“Making things to solve problems, what we call engineering, is a fundamental human activity. It’s something we all do – and as a species, have always done. But how does it work?” asked NOVA co-executive producer Chris Schmidt. “In Building Stuff, we dive into an exciting mix of engineering stories that highlight the problem-solving process that underlies innovation, while revealing the deep historical roots that underpin every aspect of our modern world.”
