毒品走私的方式已经改变。执法人员为了扫荡毒品,开始封锁全球的毒品运送路径,迫使走私犯另寻他法。以往贩毒集团单纯由凶恶的暴徒组成,如今他们却企业化经营,设有研发部门以制造新型毒品。而他们多样的发明都是为了将毒品从原料来源国运往目的地─美国。在哥伦比亚的丛林深处,当地官方查获多辆巨型潜水艇,它们沿着太平洋航行,用来运载价值超过一亿五千万元的古柯碱。没有人晓得他们是如何在荒郊野外打造出这些运送船舰。

Simon Reeves makes another "round the world" trip following the tropic of Capricorn which is parallel (but shorter) to the equator in the Southern hemisphere. Again each episode is a rapid visit to one or more countries, in (Austral)Asia, Latin America or Africa, exploring strategic issues as well as daily life for locals, tourists and planners.

史蒂芬霍金教授,丹尼尔乔治教授及克里斯多夫盖福一起脑力激荡,究竟人类有没有可能,又该如何到达更远的其他星球?
On a brisk day in November 1998, a doughy balding Brooklyn computer salesman was supposed to report to prison to begin serving a 17-year sentence. He rented a Ford Taurus. Drove to Queens to turn in the ankle monitor he had been wearing. He took $600 out of an ATM. Headed to JFK airport. And vanished. His name was John Ruffo. The crime he had committed was outlandish. Using forged documents and fake corporate seals, he persuaded banks to loan him $350 million. He invented a nonexistent proposition that he called “Project Star” and he used the money to gamble the millions on the stock market, becoming one of Wall Street’s high-rollers. When the FBI caught wind of his swindle, they set up a sting. At his sentencing, prosecutors made an unthinkable mistake. They agreed to let John Ruffo drive himself to prison. What followed was one of the longest and most challenging manhunts in the history of the U.S. Marshals Service. We discover a man whose life was a hall of mirrors. Secret identities, unlikely affiliations, and bogus companies are uncovered. Was he secretly helping an elite unit of FBI spy-hunters lure Soviet scientists to defect? Did he cut a deal with the mob to help him disappear? Was that him, seated behind home plate at Dodger Stadium? We join the chase as the Marshals try and resolve a case that has baffled and bewildered generations of their colleagues, crossing the globe to ask one pressing question: Have you seen this man?
Eight days, three hours, 18 minutes, 35 seconds. That's the total duration of the most important and celebrated space mission ever flown - Apollo 11 - when we first stepped foot on the moon...
