As we ring in a new decade and look to the future, Science Channel&#8217;s original series IMPOSSIBLE ENGINEERING returns for a new season Wednesday, January 1, 2020 at 9PM ET\/PT.<\/p>\n<p>This season, viewers will journey to Dubai, London, Whistler, Rotterdam and beyond as experts examine some of the most mind-blowing engineering marvels around the world. In Seattle, engineers attempt to build the first-ever railway system on a floating bridge with ground-breaking technology. In Dubai, beachfront real estate is highly sought after, forcing engineers to create what doesn&#8217;t exist, a human-made island complete with residential living and the world&#8217;s largest observation wheel.<\/p><div id=\"morty-1176329218\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;What better way to start off a new decade than celebrating the ingenuity of engineering innovators who have helped shape our modern world,&#8221; said Neil Laird, Executive Producer, Science Channel.<\/p>\n<p>Also on this season of IMPOSSIBLE ENGINEERING is London&#8217;s state-of-the-art super sewer, considered the biggest infrastructure project ever attempted in the UK; the currently under construction Beijing Daxing Airport, which will be the world&#8217;s largest upon completion, designed to handle over 72 million passengers and more than 2 million tons of cargo.<\/p>\n<p>IMPOSSIBLE ENGINEERING is produced by Twofour Broadcast for Science Channel.
