Did anyone see the NOVA program on engineering the new WTC and the 9/11 memorial? I thought it was a very good episode.
Thanks

"http://www2.ae911truth.org/twintowers.php"
for proof. There I found alleged architects and engineers spouting conspiracies and trying to justify their beliefs with hard science. Can anyone help debunk those myths?
For me the Skeptical Society debunks all those myths perfectly.

The NOVA program on Engineering 9/11 is a documentary produced by PBS that explores the engineering behind the collapse of the World Trade Center towers on September 11, 2001.
This program was created to provide a scientific explanation for the collapse of the World Trade Center towers and to shed light on the role of engineering in understanding this tragic event.
The program covers topics such as the design and construction of the World Trade Center towers, the impact of the airplane crashes, the fire and heat damage, and the structural analysis of the collapse.
The program features interviews with experts in the fields of engineering, structural analysis, and materials science, as well as witnesses and survivors of the 9/11 attacks.
The main takeaway from the program is that the collapse of the World Trade Center towers was a result of a combination of factors, including the impact of the airplane crashes, the fire and heat damage, and the design flaws of the buildings.
