Scott Manley | This Toy Blew My Mind - 1960's Toy Using Technology I Didn't Know Existed @scottmanley | Uploaded 6 months ago | Updated 1 day ago
I've been out of town clearing out my mother in law's house, which means I haven't had time to make videos, but, in the attic I found this toy which used Shape Memory Polymer technology, and I thought that this kind of thing had only been invented in the 21st century.
Ok it's not much of a toy, but it is fascinating to figure out how this worked, and how there's a link to spaceflight in this story.
