The 2024 Olympics are almost here and the summer games include gymnastics, swimming, cycling, tennis, and hockey among other familiar sports… and something called Modern Pentathlon. I’d honestly never heard of this sport before, and clearly missed the boat since it’s been a part of the Modern Olympics program since 1912. The Modern Pentathlon is a show of flexibility both in the athletes’ performance across five disciplines (fencing, swimming, showjumping, shooting and running), as well as … [Read more...]

I recently stumbled upon the story of Stephanie Kwolek, a DuPont chemist who discovered the technology behind Kevlar® almost 60 years ago. This lightweight fiber is five times stronger than an equal weight of steel, withstands high heat and is resistant to harsh chemicals (kind of like Superman except for that whole kryptonite thing). Most notably, Kevlar is found in body armor and bulletproof vests used by police and the military. One could argue that the level of something’s ruggedness is … [Read more...]
