In the 1980s, an Englishman by the name of Maurice Ward developed a material which he claimed could withstand temperatures of thousands of degrees Celsius. Not only could the material withstand high temperatures, but it could also protect anything in proximity from high temperatures.
This product didn’t result in a revolution in material science. In fact, it was never produced at all, and in the end, the secret to its creation died with its inventor.
Learn more about Maurice Ward and the creation of Starlite and why it was never developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
