Lesson #1597 - Engineering

Aviation? It's just building something so you can jump. Space exploration? Jumping really fast. Vehicular travel? Walking or running. The internet? Just a really expansive library where you don't get shushed for talking? Polymer network synthesis? Making a net.

The system may be crazy, the explanation may be overly simplistic, but the awesome is concentrated. And that's engineering.

STW FOR THE HOLIDAYS: If you want lobster holiday cards, labcoat, pint glass, or coffee mug, express international orders need to be placed sometime this week, while USPS First Class orders should be placed before December 12th. Express shipping within the US extends a little bit after that. More details can be found here.

If you want a STW shirt, the standard shipping deadline is December 12th, and the express shipping deadline is December 18th.
