- throwaway729 10y ago"Making of the atomic bomb" is a real classic and can't come more highly recommended. Model rockets are great for kids. I wish there were an equivalently accessible set of programmable RC plane projects.
- SystemOut 10y agoHuge recommendation for Endurance. I could hardly put that book down. It was a shame that the author died before it became popular finally. A cruel twist of fate due to when the book was released.
