Thomas Edison: The Light Bulb

The Light Bulb

This is one of Thomas Edison's most useful inventions.

Thomas Alva Edison was born on February 11th, 1847 in Milan, Ohio. When he started to talk he would always encounter objects and ideas that he did not understand and ask people how they worked or why they work. As he grew up, his hunger for knowledge increased. He exchanged his ideas with people, and soon those ideas spread all over the world. He studied and explored nearly all theories and discoveries through the history of science. This knowledge led to Edison to create numerous world famous inventions, most notably the light bulb.

My Project was researched and completed at my home. I worked on the project by myself, I used the Internet to find resources and create my Historical Website. I used many Websites to research on Thomas Edison some were Fan Websites of Thomas Edison and some were Historical Websites like my own. I put together my project using many pictures, captioning the pictures made it easier for viewers to understand what Thomas Edison used to create the Light Bulb. I chose this subject because I am fascinated with Technology and I want to learn how the earliest works of it came to be.
