What makes bird feathers certain colors? 🦜
The colors depend on the structure of feathers at the microscopic level, which can lead to amazing blues and iridescent effects. In an Open Seminar, Lorna J. Gibson, professor emerita of @MITMechE and @mit_dmse, shares how birds are able to display vibrant colors.

3 things engineers at @mit consider before tackling a global development problem:
1️⃣ Real merit — will it affect a lot of people?
2️⃣ Technical merit — is this actually an engineering problem?
3️⃣ Value — who will fund, disseminate, and adopt it?

In 2001, MIT made a bold decision to open its curriculum to the world. Through MIT OpenCourseWare — now part of @mitopenlearning — the Institute began sharing materials from nearly all of its courses online for free.
A quarter of a century later, that decision has impacted the lives of more than 500 million people across the world.

In 1999, many universities saw the internet as a way to profit from knowledge.
Instead, MIT asked, "how about we make something big and give it away?" With the spark of that idea, @MITOCW was born.
