Description
This is my first image with catalytic converters. While they feature chemistry and precious metals combined in a technological tour-de-force, and even have Swedish oxygen sonde probes to protect them, I can burrow through the exclusion and dig them. The exhibit of the history of their development at Henry Ford Museum I saw about 10 years ago was the highlight of my visit there. The agony and the ecstasy, the light that seemed never to appear at the end of the tunnel, the thrill of victory dashed by the agony of defeat. Fuel Cell technology, now, or batteries, wishes they could have such an outcome. This is an image of a driveline that gets 25 mpg highway in government mandated testing.
