Greatest Engineering Achievements of the 20th Century Visit this Web Site The National Academy of Engineering came to Scout for the creation of the "Greatest Engineering Achievements of the 20th Century" Web site. |
      
|
| The goal was to celebrate a remarkable century of technological achievement. The Greatest Achievements Web site presents detailed histories and timelines of the engineering achievements that had the greatest impact on the quality of life during the 20th century. |
From the site's welcome page, visitors can obtain information on the project, view press releases and a Webcast of Neil Armstrong's announcement speech, and jump directly to profiles of the achievements. |
An individual section dedicated to each of the achievements provides background information, a history of related events and individuals, and a timeline of important milestones. |

During the weeks following the site's launch in February of 2000, it was well received and garnered many awards and notices. Several of these were:
