MACHU PICCHU
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 9 @ 8:00PM
Structural engineer Steve Burrows leads his team of laser-scanning experts into the Peruvian jungle to scan the sacred Incan city of Machu Picchu. Using cutting-edge, 3D laser-scanning technology he wants to answer three main questions: How did the Inca build a city atop a mountain ridge? How were the terraces constructed? How did they supply water to the city? To find the answers, they must battle altitude sickness and rampaging insects as they hack their way through the jungle to set up their high-tech scanning equipment.
