MythBusters - Forces of Flight!

Get ready to test the secrets of aviation with your MythBuster friends! If at first you don’t succeed, fly, fly again. In this lofty science kit, your future scientist will uncover the wonders of flight. People build all sorts of machines to overcome the forces that normally keep us earthbound. Which ideas sour and which ones crash and burn? Do rockets really launch best when they run out of gas? Would astronauts explode without spacesuits? What do bubbles know about flying? Collect all 4!

Mythbusters uses science to determine the truth behind urban legends. Using the scientific method and plain old-fashioned curiosity and ingenuity, the Mythbusters Guys test myths both widely known and obscure, potentially life saving and seemingly trivial. Offering a unique, offbeat and often explosive look at science, Jamie Hyneman, Adam Savage, and the build team members combine their experience and ability to create and build anything they need to test a myth. Called "the best science program on television," Mythbusters is widely credited with making science cool again. Airing on Discovery Channel since October 2003, the series has challenged over 300 myths to date.
