Forrest M. Mims is a revered contributor to Make: magazine, where
his popular columns about science-related topics and projects for
Makers are evergreen treasures. Collected together here for the
first time, these columns range from such simple projects as
building an LED tracker for hand-launched night rockets to such
challenging builds as transforming strings of data into unique
musical compositions. A variety of photography and imaging projects
are featured, including an ultra-sensitive twilight photometer that
measures the elevation of layers of dust, smoke, and smog from
around 3,000 feet to the top of the stratosphere at 31 miles! Most
of the projects can be done with a collection of simple electronic
components, such as LEDs, transistors, resistors, and batteries. To
inspire and motivate readers, the book also includes profiles of
such famous Makers as President Thomas Jefferson and Microsoft
co-founder Paul Allen.
