Material+Resources

Many technological features we have now are made possible by the resources that have been developed. Colombus made it to America with sails of canvas, ropes of hemp, and a sturdy wood hull bound by metal. Our dreams can remain just a thought or they can become reality by the materials available to us. Today, we can send data through fiber-optic cables, cross the skies, or fly to Mars with the growing number of these remarkable materials. This is a sign that the human spirit of exploration is more enpowered than ever before!
