Engineer as a National Asset (3)
Subscribe/Renew Journal
One hundred and fifty years ago, no human being could have visualised the spectacle of a motor car hurling along the road at over hundred miles per hour, an aircraft bursting through the sound barrier or the nuclear sub-marine fathoming the deepest depths of the icy heart of the North Pole. But science has achieved these miracles with the aid of its hand-maid-Engineering. The radio, the telephone, the television, modern surgical appliances, machines which produce marvellous consumer goods to house, feed, clothe, and repair the human machine have all been the brain-child of the modern science of engineering. The Sputnik which hurled millions of miles from earth, the I.C.B.M. which can pin-point and destroy a continent within seconds, the moon rocket which will begin man's first real discovery and colonization of a new world, i.e. the moon itself and put Colombus to shame-all these are the wonders of our civilization for which the engineer must own the lion's share.
