Forty miles out into the Atlantic from the western isles of Scotland lies the archipelago of St Kilda. Home to human populations for more than 4000 years, the islands inhabitants were evacuated from the main island in 1930 leaving it as a haven for wildlife, a tourist destination and workplace for those studying and monitoring the islands ecology and its radar station built in the 1950s. Many of those writing about St Kilda have emphasised the remoteness and insularity of its environment, ...

The De Havilland Comet was an absolute marvel of British engineering—the world's first commercial jetliner, promising to shrink the globe with unprecedented speed. But within a year of its triumphant launch, the planes began spontaneously exploding mid-flight in the clear blue sky, plummeting into the Mediterranean Sea without warning. The culprit was not sabotage or pilot error, but a devastating ignorance of high-altitude physics. This technical history dissects the aerodynamic catastrop...
