How do we get our food? Move around the country? Get the energy to power our daily lives?
This thought-provoking program takes viewers on a journey high above the American landscape to reveal the interdependent and intricately interwoven networks that feed and power the nation, produce millions of goods, transport people great distances and still come together to make America work. Technology expert and communications attorney Yul Kwon visits farms, a traffic-control center, a robot-designing lab, a beekeeper, and more as he investigates how these vital networks function. The program features stunning aerial shots, computer animations, and conversations with the people who run and create the vast, complex and precisely calibrated systems on which the networks rely.
