A&E Television Networks, LLC (Added Author). Films for the Humanities & Sciences (Firm) (Added Author). Infobase (Added Author).

Summary: This program theorizes about what would happen if people disappeared from Earth. We consider what will happen to Manhattan's Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, Brooklyn Bridge, and Roosevelt Island Tramway, all created of steel and concrete. The fates of Gateway Arch in St. Louis, the Federal Reserve's gold, and domesticated animals, such as horses, are also examined. The ghost town of Rhyolite, Nevada, abandoned 90 years ago, is also discussed.
