"Rise
of the Drones"
1 hr.
Drones. These unmanned flying robots–some as large as jumbo jets, others
as small as birds–do things straight out of science fiction. Much of
what it takes to get these robotic airplanes to fly, sense, and kill has
remained secret. But now, with rare access to drone engineers and those
who fly them for the U.S. military, NOVA reveals the amazing
technologies that make drones so powerful as we see how a
remotely-piloted drone strike looks and feels from inside the command
center. From cameras that can capture every detail of an entire city at a
glance to swarming robots that can make decisions on their own to giant
air frames that can stay aloft for days on end, drones are changing our
relationship to war, surveillance, and each other. And it's just the
beginning. Discover the cutting edge technologies that are propelling us
toward a new chapter in aviation history as NOVA gets ready for "Rise
of the Drones."
