Steampunk is a retro science fiction genre taking place in the steam powered world of the Victorian Era. It is known for gear-based robots, hydrogen airships, and of course a reliance on steam engines to power their society. This week we break down what it would be like to advance society without electricity, in including why miniaturization of technology is a huge problem, how we can make hydrogen dirigibles safe, and how powerful we can make a steam-powered rocket.

Articles We Discussed
