Over the Edge of the World
Story of the first circumnavigation of the globe by Magellan. Crazy story about the first person to sail around the globe when most people thought you could sail off the edge of the map. They didnt even know about the pacific ocean and there werent really any maps.
The Alchemy of Air
The story of the Haber process. A chemical reaction that created fertilizer allowing us to feed the world, while simultaneously providing unlimited amounts of explosives for the germans in world war 2. No one is responsible for saving more lives (from hunger) and destroying more lives (from war) than Haber
