In 1940, a British scientist carried a small wooden box across the Atlantic. Inside was a device so secret, so valuable, that it was guarded more heavily than gold. American scientists who opened it said it was "the most valuable cargo ever brought to our shores."
The device was the cavity magnetron — and it would change the war more than any other single invention.
John Randall and Harry Boot were two unknown physicists working in a basement laboratory in Birmingham. In just a few months, they solved a problem that had defeated scientists for decades: how to generate powerful microwaves small enough to fit in an aircraft.
This is the story of how their invention gave the Allies radar that could see submarines in the dark, bombers that could hit targets through clouds, and technology that helped win D-Day. Some historians believe the magnetron was more decisive than the atomic bomb — because it was used every single day of the war.
Yet almost nobody knows their names.
Discover how two forgotten scientists built the device that won World War II — and handed it to America in a suitcase.
