Dive beneath the surface to discover an untold story of WWII.

NOVA looks into new clues to one of the most tragic events of World War II, the sinking of the USS Arizona. It has been thought that the Arizona was sunk by a bomb dropped by a Japanese aircraft, but the discovery of five Japanese midget subs just outside Pearl Harbor raises new questions about the Arizona’s final hours. Could these tiny but lethal subs have played a crucial and previously unsuspected part in the day’s tragic events?

NOVA flies along with the monarch butterflies, visiting the spectacular locations they call home and meeting the dangers they encounter along the way.
