About
In 1965, the world’s first full enclosed sports facility, the Houston Astrodome, was opened to the public.
The Astrodome itself was a marvel of engineering, but because it was enclosed, the grass that was initially planted soon died.
It was replaced with artificial grass, which was basically a synthetic carpet that looked like grass but played and behaved totally differently.
Today, the next generations of that artificial grass can be found in stadiums all over the world.
Learn more about artificial turf, how it was created and improved over time on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
