Popular Mechanics was founded as a weekly in Chicago by Henry Haven Windsor, with the first issue dated January 11, 1902. Its concept was that it would explain "how the world works" in simple language, with photos and illustrations to aid understanding. For decades, its slogan was: "Written so you can understand." It is a popular science and technology magazine, covering automotive, domestic, outdoor, electronics, scientific, do-it-yourself, and technological topics. Military topics, aviation and transportation of all kinds, space, tools and devices are commonly covered.
In September 1902, the magazine, previously weekly, became monthly. The Popular Mechanics Company was owned by the Windsor family and printed in Chicago until Hearst Corporation bought the magazine in 1958.
