Planet Green show aims to inspire kids with science

What if tiny "nano-bots" could autonomously travel though a person’s bloodstream to find and kill cancerous cells, eliminating the need for surgery? Or what if you could hop into a flying car for your morning commute?

No science fiction here: "These are real," say commercials for Planet Green’s new show, Dean of Invention, which premieres Friday at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

Dean Kamen http://content.usatoday.com/topics/topic/Dean+Kamen , the show’s host and inventor of various medical technologies as well as the two-wheeled self-balancing personal transporter, the Segway, says he wants the show to get kids excited about STEM (science, technology, engineering and math), although the series is not aimed just at children.
