This series continues to explore developments in technology, and offers explanations that are easily understood by a broad range of viewers. The drug trade has been using advanced methods of detection avoidance to keep their goods from being confiscated by U.S. agents. These techniques are examined in Ultrascience 2: High Tech Drug Wars, as the program traces the route that drug shipments take from their sources in South America. While American officials have an arsenal of equipment to locate and seize the shipments, the criminals seem to stay several steps ahead through use of spies and subterfuge.
