NSF SCIENCE360 SUPER SCIENCE REWIND: NO BONES ABOUT IT

The video discusses the differences between mechanical failures in cars and airplanes and the resilience of bones. It highlights research from Cornell, UC Berkeley, Case Western, and Trinity, focusing on the concept of material heterogeneity in bones, which allows them to recover after breaking. The video explores the implications of this discovery for medicine and engineering, suggesting that understanding bone structure could lead to the development of new materials that perform better after failure. The video concludes with a humorous exchange about borrowing money.
