How Everyday Things Are Made
If screenshotyou're still convinced little elves secretly create and manufacture the products we use and consume every day, Stanford's Alliance for Innovative Manufacturing is here to burst your bubble. Their innovative tour of factories and the complex processes within them provides a glimpse into the intriguing, often overlooked world of manufacturing. Take a sugary-sweet jaunt through the Jelly Belly factory to see how these tempting treats end up in your candy dish. Or aim higher and learn how a giant airplane is created from thin air. With friendly narration, fun video tutorials, and easy navigation, the die is cast for you to immerse yourself in the scintillating science of how stuff works. (in Science)
