Discovery Science to premiere ‘Strip the City’

MUMBAI: Discovery Science is gearing up to premiere Strip the City on 5 December at 9 pm. The show will showcase eight major cities and unveil the hidden technology that protect the people from the onslaught of nature’s most terrifying threats.

 

The viewers will be taken deeper into the city, bringing to light an alien landscape of underground volcanoes, hidden rivers, subterranean cliffs, fragile fault lines, and ancient catacombs. The show will also hear from leading engineers and geologists as they will be seen examining the ingenious designs, innovative technologies and teams of forward thinking professionals who are instrumental in keeping each city alive and well.

 

Strip the City will utilise the best of computer-generated imagery (CGI) to break down each city, layer-by-layer, to reveal a geological universe normally hidden under water, tarmacs and concrete. Each episode will peel the glass and walls off buildings, roll up the tarmac on roads, drains oceans and rivers, and slices through bedrock to look below some of the world’s major cities like Dubai, London, Rome, San Francisco, Sydney and Toronto and will also uncover what keeps them running smoothly.

 

The show’s few episodes include Desert City: Dubai, Earthquake City: San Francisco, Harbour City: Sydney, Ice City: Toronto, Underground City: London and Ancient City: Rome.
