In a village at the edge of the rainforest, the skilled and nimble fingers of an old woman bends fabric and straw into graceful baskets. The baskets are the perfect size to hold papayas, but they also held centuries of craft and tribal identity. Basket weaving is one of the most widespread crafts in history: it originated in the Middle East around 7,000 years ago and spread to every continent except Antarctica. The preservation of ancient baskets is difficult, however, because most items are made of natural materials like wood, grass, and vines, which decay rapidly. As a result, much of the history of basket making would be lost. On the other hand, weaving techniques, which are often passed along from generation to generation, has been preserved throughout the centuries and are still being expanded upon today.

During its 27 years of service, the world's fastest commercial aircraft transported passengers across the Atlantic ocean in only two hours.

Although the Concorde was retired in 2003, a plane that is capable of flying halfway around the world in a mere four hours might soon exist. For engineers, eliminating sonic booms have been one of the biggest challenges involved in building the new craft. Airplanes that break the sound barrier are extremely loud, so they must be flown primarily over water.
