There is probably a roll of metal in your kitchen so cheap that you throw it away after a single use—yet in 1884, a small pyramid of that exact same metal sat in the window of Tiffany’s in New York, displayed like a jewel before capping the Washington Monument. Aluminium (or aluminum) is the most abundant metal in the Earth's crust, sitting inside every handful of ordinary clay, as well as rubies and sapphires. Still, humans smelted copper for 7,000 years and iron for 3,000 before anyone on Earth ever held a pure piece of it. In this video, we trace the scientific detective story of how humans discovered aluminium and turned a metal once priced like silver into the foundation of modern flight and everyday life. From ancient Roman legends and medieval wars fought over alum mines, to Napoleon III's "silver from clay" and the simultaneous 1886 breakthroughs of two 22-year-olds—Charles Martin Hall in an Ohio woodshed and Paul HĂ©roult in a French tannery—here is how humanity finally used electricity to break one of nature's strongest chemical bonds.
