General Electric traces the history and development of jet propulsion technology, beginning with ancient origins in Hero of Alexandria's steam turbine and progressing through modern jet engine research conducted by G.E. The narrative explains the principles behind jet propulsion through historical examples and diagrams, then details the successful test flight in October 1942 of an experimental P-59 Bell Airacomet equipped with two General Electric jet engines. The comic concludes by showcasing contemporary applications, including the Convair 880 commercial jetliner powered by four G.E. CJ-805 engines designed for medium-range passenger service, and General Electric's multi-million-dollar research laboratory in Cincinnati dedicated to developing more efficient and powerful jet engines.
