The Ultimate Weapons of the Ancients

Today on Far Future Horizons we present another exciting installment of the History Channel’s acclaimed documentary series Ancient Impossible.

We think of weapons of mass destruction as a modern concept, but the ancients also created formidable weapons of their own, some even more destructive than we can create today.

Archimedes' Steam Powered Cannon

Centuries before the widespread discovery of gunpowder, one ancient genius managed to build a cannon that could fire a projectile using the power of steam!

An Ancient Troop Ship

This episode of Ancient Impossible will also reveal an ancient troop ship mightier than an aircraft carrier, and death rays that could burn enemy ships.

Archimedes' Death Ray

How were the ancients capable of creating seemingly impossible warfare technologies thousands of years before modern times?

This episode of Ancient Impossible can be purchased via Amazon’s Instant video.
