Maury Povich hosts this exploration of Egypt's pyramid of Khamerernebty II and the unopened Tomb of the Unknown by Dr. Zahi A. Hawass, Undersecretary of State for Egypt's Giza Plateau. Also: an examination of the mummy Nefer in Saqqara.

The world's leading Egyptologists are on a quest to uncover the secrets of Howard Carter's history-making discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb on the 100th anniversary of its discovery. Now, as the treasures of Tut are being moved from the Cairo Museum to the brand new Grand Egyptian Museum at the foot of the pyramids, Zahi and others can examine them up close with the latest technology like never before. The result rewrites what we thought we knew about the Boy King.

National Geographic goes to Egypt to look into an underground vault that houses a ship of the Pharaoh Khufu and follows an researcher as he attempts to recreate the ancient rite of mummification.

Massive earthquakes. Giant tidal waves. Super volcanoes exploding. Raging firestorms. These are just a few visions of a global apocalypse that some say will happen on December 21, 2012. That's when the eerily accurate Mayan calendar will come to a sudden end. That ancient calendar is causing a modern day panic. People around the world fear that our planet faces a catastrophe never seen before in human history.
