Excerpt from Modern Science Reader
Curiously enough, near the center, where most of the meteorites have been found, is a crater with raised edges three quarters of a mile in diameter and about six hundred feet deep, bearing exactly the appearance which would be produced had a mighty mass of iron struck the ground and buried itself deep under the surface. Altogether, ten tons of this iron have been collected and specimens of the Cafion Diablo meteorite are in most collectors' cabinets.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a revealing look into the history of propellants, from the era of gunpowder through to the development of smokeless powders like cordite. The author traces the evolution of propellants, noting how gunpowder's composition and production methods remained unchanged for centuries. Despite this lack of advancement, gunpowder was the sole propellant used for many centuries, and even great minds wildly diverged on its actual power and potential energy. The author details the shift to smokeless powders and the increased power and efficiency they brought to weaponry. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of weapons technology and the evolution of propellants that have shaped warfare throughout history.
