Say we drop a team of scientists and machinists (and whoever else you deem necessary) with extensive knowledge into the year 2000 BCE (or the year 8026). Take us through the process of how in the world we go from that stage of civilization where a steam engine would be alien technology to today’s world of microchips and space travel. I do not care about credit I just really would like to see this video made, because how did we go from “oooh stick make fire” to atomic scale transistors.
