Synopsis: The author discusses how technology which is too advanced would be useless to a society not developed enough to understand the basic and applied science involved; he gives a detailed example of how a supersonic ramjet aircraft of the late 1940s, if it were to be found by engineers of the 1920s, would be completely incomprehensible in every function, large or small.
