Aircraft carriers are some of the most fearsome weapons in the world. They are enormous platforms that can travel around the globe, projecting power over an enormous part of it.
However, aircraft carriers have a rather humble origin that actually predates the invention of the airplane. Throughout the 20th century, they saw many innovations and adaptations that turned them into the fearsome weapons they are today.
Yet, despite their power, some people say that the age of the aircraft carrier may be at an end.
Learn more about aircraft carriers, how they were created and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
