About this episode
Over the course of a century, the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan has grown to house over 26 million artifacts of innovative achievements. However, one quiet piece – prized by Ford above all others – curiously stands out among the collection: a seemingly empty sealed test tube.
In this episode, we uncover this relic’s story and how it preserves an enduring friendship within the country’s technological history.
