For thousands of years we have traded by sea. In the past few hundred years, explorers have ventured out into the unknown, forging a path to a multibillion dollar industry in the 21st century. Today, 95% of the world’s cargo is moved on ships. More than 50,000 container ships, bulk carriers and tankers traverse great expanses of water to bring a world of manufactured goods to our fingertips. These immense vessels represent our most incredible feats of engineering and technological ingenuity. A testament to our will to tame the elements and expand our reach. A powerful driving force behind one of the world’s first truly global industries. ‘Shipping the World’ explores the cutting edge, supersized world of today’s shipping industry. A story that is part science, part social history. Of how our amazing inventive spirit, and our willingness to dream big built one of the largest industries in the world.

Ever faster, ever higher... From the successful breaking of the sound barrier in 1947 to high performance supersonic fighter jets, to the recent NASA advances and civilian jet projects for crossing the Atlantic in only 3.5 hours, this documentary recounts 70 years of human and technological challenges. For long, the sound barrier was considered unbreakable. Today, breaking the sound barrier is perfunctory for army jet pilots. But it hasn’t always been the case ... In 1947, Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier. A dizzying race to speed started. It lead pilots to insane speeds and more sophisticated engines. As competition between Europe, America and Russia rose, we’ll discover how aircraft manufacturers and engineers created technological marvels. The shaking arm of the machmeter when it reaches Mach 1, Mach 2, Mach 3... fasten your seat belts!
