The Last Artifact documents the work
going on behind the scenes to modernize
the measurement system upon which
all of modern life depends. Since the
French Revolution, the way we weigh the
world has been based on a small metallic
cylinder about the diameter of golf ball
(pictured, left), located just outside of Paris
inside a high-tech vault. Encased within
three vacuum-sealed bell jars, it may not
look like much, but it is one of the most
important objects on the planet. It affects
every aspect of our lives from the moment
we are born, to the food we eat, the cars
we drive, and the medicines we take. This
object has helped send men to the moon,
and satellites into space. It is an object
unlike any other, the last of its kind. It is
a literal constant in an ever-changing
world, and the weight by which all others
are measured.
In 2018, this all changed. This remarkable
object was resigned to history and rede-
fined. The Last Artifact tells the story about
how this artifact came to be, how it came
to pass, and what the future holds.
