The Traitorous Eight and The Birth of Silicon Valley

Mitsubishi Zero: The Aircraft That Changed WWII Aviation

In the early months of World War II, one aircraft seemed almost unstoppable.  Fast, agile, and capable of outmaneuvering almost anything in the sky, the Mitsubishi A6M Zero became the symbol of Japanese air power across the Pacific.  Allied pilots feared it, military planners studied it, and its strengths and weaknesses would shape the future of aerial combat.  Learn more about the rise and fall of the Mitsubishi A6M Zero on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Traitorous Eight and The Birth of Silicon Valley

In 1957, eight young engineers walked away from one of the most important laboratories in America and, in doing so, helped create the modern technology industry.  Their break with a Nobel Prize-winning inventor physicist set off a chain reaction of innovation, investment, and entrepreneurship that transformed a quiet region of California into Silicon Valley.  The companies they founded and the people they inspired would shape everything from computers to smartphones, and their influence can still be felt today.  Learn more about the Traitorous Eight and the birth of Silicon Valley on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Rainbows And How They Work

Few things in nature are as instantly recognizable as a rainbow.  For thousands of years, rainbows have inspired myths, religion, art, and science.  Yet behind those bands of color is an extraordinary interaction between sunlight, water, geometry, and the physics of light itself.  From double rainbows to full circular rainbows seen from aircraft, the science behind them is far more fascinating than most people realize.  Learn more about rainbows and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Project Mercury: America's First Steps Into Space

In the late 1950s, the United States found itself trailing in the Space Race as the Soviet Union achieved one milestone after another.  In response, NASA launched Project Mercury, an ambitious effort to put an American into space using little more than experimental rockets, cramped capsules, and sheer determination.  Explosions, near disasters, and political pressure surrounded every mission, yet the program would lay the foundation for landing humans on the Moon.  Learn more about the Mercury Program and America's first manned space flights on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Indian Ocean Trade

For thousands of years, before Europeans crossed the Atlantic or steamships crossed the seas, the Indian Ocean connected the known world. Merchants riding the monsoon winds carried spices, silk, gold, ivory, porcelain, and ideas between Africa, Arabia, India, Southeast Asia, and China.  Along these routes, religions spread, empires rose, and some of the world’s richest trading cities emerged. It was a commercial system that shaped history long before the modern global economy existed. Learn more about the Indian Ocean Trade and how it helped forge civilizations on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
