Everything Everywhere Daily - RADAR
In 1887, the German physicist Heinrich Hertz discovered radio waves.
While the first practical use of this discovery was communication, there were also some who realized that radio waves could serve another purpose.
It was possible to use these radio waves to detect objects at a distance. It was something that revolutionized warfare and weather forecasting and might revolutionize consumer technology.
Learn more about RADAR, how it works, and how it was developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
