Modern Marvels is a television series on The History Channel that answers the question of how many things in the modern world are possible, and where they came from. Premiering in 1994, Modern Marvels has produced over 300 episodes of scientific, technological, and mechanical topics varying from gasoline to the Berlin wall to the aircraft carrier to the Alaska/Alcan Highway to commercial fishing. Part of the appeal of Modern Marvels and what probably what has kept the show on the air for this long is the fact that it covers a wide range of subjects, giving the viewer lots of interesting shows that pertain to many different themes. However, unlike other science and technology shows, Modern Marvels focuses a significant portion of the episode on the history of the subject.
