Imagine an airship the size of three A-380 Airbuses hovering over outback Australia and lowering major payloads without ever touching the ground. French-Canadian company Flying Whales has been developing a heavy-lift airship called the LCA60T, designed to move bulky cargo into areas where roads, rail or conventional aviation are difficult, expensive or impractical. What is the LCA60T? The LCA60T, is a helium airship with a payload capacity of up to 60 tonnes (60,000kg). It is

On 26 June 1976, Toronto's CN Tower officially opened to the public. Fifty years later, it remains one of the most recognisable structures on the planet, with a well-deserved place on the American Society of Civil Engineers' Seven Wonders of the Modern World list. At 553.3 metres tall, the tower was built to solve a growing problem. Toronto's skyline was expanding rapidly, and broadcasters were struggling with signal interference caused by the city's new high-rise buildings.

From water systems to roads and bridges, ancient civilisations were solving infrastructure challenges thousands of years ago, often with nothing more than basic tools, clever design and a deep understanding of their environment. What's even more impressive? Some of these assets are still in use today. Here are our top 10 ancient engineering projects that have well and truly stood the test of time. 1.
