The #Pantheon in Rome was built in the 2nd century AD. It is capped by a beautiful 142-foot-high unreinforced concrete dome. Until today, it has been a mystery how it is has been able to bear its own weight. 🏛️ #madewithcement #ThrowBackThursday

"Sunshine is a form of energy, & the winds & tides are manifestations of energy. Do we use them? Oh no; we burn up wood & coal, as renters burn up the front fence for fuel. We live like squatters, not as if we owned the property." Thomas Edison bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
