Baratunde Thurston takes us behind the scenes at GE Global Research Center to learn how does a jet engine works with the help of aerospace engineer Todd Wetzel. You’ll see why “suck, squeeze, bang, blow” is a great way to talk about modern flight.
The two discuss how airplane engines have evolved to become the powerful, high-efficiency machines they are today. Check out the video below to learn how locomotives, wind turbines, and jet engines operate.
