Cathode-ray tube
2025-06-28
Okay, let’s talk about Cathode-Ray Tubes, or CRTs. Think of them as the display technology that ruled the world for decades before flat screens came along. For anyone into electrical engineering, understanding how these tubes worked is pretty fundamental because they involve a lot of core electronic principles – generating electrons, controlling them with electric and magnetic fields, high voltage, vacuum technology, and signal processing.

British military
2025-06-28
Think of a modern military force. What comes to mind? Ships, planes, tanks, soldiers? Absolutely. But underpinning all of this is a complex web of technology – and a huge chunk of that is down to electrical engineering. It’s not just about plugging things in; it’s about designing, building, maintaining, and operating the sophisticated systems that allow forces to communicate, navigate, detect targets, defend themselves, and project power across the globe.

Bawdsey
2025-06-28
Bawdsey might seem like just a quiet village by the sea in Suffolk, eastern England. It sits right across the River Deben’s mouth from Felixstowe. While it’s a nice place, for anyone interested in electrical engineering, especially the history of radar, Bawdsey is a really significant spot. It played a critical, secret role just before and during World War II.

Apollo program
2025-06-28
Hey there! So you’re interested in the Apollo program, the amazing effort by the United States back in the 1960s and early 70s that landed folks on the Moon. While it might seem like just rockets and astronauts, from an electrical engineering point of view, Apollo was a huge deal. It pushed the boundaries of what was possible in electronics, power systems, communication, and control systems. Let’s dig into it.
