Description:
In 1742, when the legendary dome atop St. Peter’s Basilica—designed by Michelangelo—cracks and threatens to collapse, Pope Benedict XIV summons three mathematicians whose groundbreaking ideas spark a revolution in the world of architecture.
1742: the famous dome atop Saint Peter’s Basilica, designed by Michelangelo, is fractured and threatened with collapse. The dome is the pride of Italy and the largest of its kind anywhere in the world. And no one knows how to fix it.
This engaging and colorful narrative tells the overlooked story of how Michelangelo’s Dome was saved from disaster by three mathematicians and Pope Benedict XIV, who had asked them for help. It is a gripping story of decisive leadership, crisis management, and scientific innovation, and the resistance that was faced when sailing into the headwinds of conventional thought.
In Saving Michelangelo's Dome, Stanford-trained engineer Wayne Kalayjian illustrates how new ideas in science and mathematics established an entirely new way of looking at the world—as well as solving its complex problems. In the end, readers will appreciate that in saving Michelangelo’s Dome from collapse, these three mathematicians and one determined pope unknowingly invented the profession of engineering as we practice it today. With it, they transformed the architectural world and ushered in generations of future buildings and structures that, otherwise, would never have been built.

Great design
Size: 25in
Ball is very durable yet soft. Whistles when you throw it and goes very far. Handle is ergonomic with a nice rubber grip. Both the launcher and ball glow green in the dark. My GSD loves it. She’s 75 lbs and the medium ball is fine.

Husband and dogs highly approve.
Size: 25in
My husband wanted us to replace one from a different company that broke. It had to have a glow in the dark ball, since he sometimes plays fetch with the dogs at night. He couldn’t love this more. Says it’s so much better than the other one, the whole thing glows in the dark and it throws farther. According to him, it’s the best ever.

Glow In The Dark Ball
Size: 18in
I gave this 4/5 stars because the ball is a little small for my dog size so I was hoping the sizing was easier to read. It could have been an error on my end. The ball is great though! It lights up nicely when it is out in the sunlight or under a light for a long periods of time, it lights up at night so you can play with your dog at night when it is cooler!

Well designed, well built.
Size: 25in
The stick facilitates powerful, long distance throws. The ball makes a light whistling noise (to help your dog track the ball) through the air, flys far, and has held up well. I live in an area with mountain lions, and they often hunt at night, so I haven’t taken advantage of the glow-in-the-dark feature.
