Mankind would not have progressed to the zenith of advancement it currently enjoys if not for the tireless work of these heroes. Here’s a brief sum-up of the Pantheon of science and technology. Read on to know more about some of the most important scientists and inventors who, through their inventions, have made the lives of scores of generations a lot easier. The list has been compiled in alphabetical order; in the case of an invention/discovery being made by more than one individual, the name occurring alphabetically earlier has been given priority. Important Inventors… Alexander Graham Bell (March 3, 1847 – August 2, 1922) Antonie van Leeuwenhoek (October 24, 1632 – August 26, 1723) Invented the microscope. Leeuwenhoek is also considered as the first microbiologist in the world and the father of microbiology. Archimedes (c. 287-212 BC) Invented the Archimedean Screw, used for drawing water out of flooded ships, or from canals for irrigation. Archimedes also discovered the method for determining the volume of irregular objects. Invented the lightning rod and bifocals, among other inventions. He is also famous as one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Brahmagupta (c. 597 – 668 AD) Brahmagupta was the first to use zero as a number, although it had been in use before his time as a symbol, representing the order of magnitude of the number in question (7 – 70 – 700 etc.). Consequently, he devised the rules of arithmetic involving zero. Brahmagupta was also the firs...

• • Still, they prevailed and proved their genius to the world. • The following are but a few of the many inventive and talented Black community members who have contributed greatly to progress in the United States.

Biographies of Scientists and Inventors • • • • • • • • • • 2. • • • • • • • A Brief History in Time. • • • • • • Types of Scientists Scientists study the world around us using the scientific method. They perform experiments to find out how nature works. While we often talk about a person being a "scientist", there are actually many different types of scientists. This is because most scientists study and become experts in a specific field of science. There are literally hundreds of scientific fields of study. We will just list a few of the types of scientists here: • Astronomer - Studies the planets, stars, and galaxies. • Botanist - Studies plant life. • Chemist - Studies chemistry and the behavior, properties, and composition of matter. • Cytologist - Studies cells. • Ecologist - Studies the relationship between living organisms and the environment. • Entomologist - Studies insects. • Geneticist - Studies genes, DNA, and the hereditary characteristics of living organisms. • Geologist - Studies the properties of matter that makes up Earth as well as the forces that shaped it. • Marine biologist - Studies the living organisms that live in the ocean and other bodies of water. • Microbiologist - Studies microscopic life forms such as bacteria and protists. • Meteorologist - Studies the Earth's atmosphere including the weather. • Nuclear physicist - Studies the interactions and make up of the atom. • Ornithologist - Studies birds. • Paleontologist - Studies prehistoric life a...

A crowd barged past dioramas, glass displays, and wide-eyed security guards in the American Museum of Natural History. Screams rang out as some runners fell and were trampled. Upon arriving at a lecture hall, the mob broke down the door. The date was Jan. 8, 1930, and the New York museum was showing a film about Albert Einstein and his general theory of relativity . Einstein was not present, but 4,500 mostly ticketless people still showed up for the viewing. Museum officials told them “no ticket, no show,” setting the stage for, in the words of the Chicago Tribune , “the first science riot in history.” Such was Einstein’s popularity. As a publicist might say, he was the whole package: distinctive look (untamed hair, rumpled sweater), witty personality (his quips, such as God not playing dice, would live on) and major scientific cred (his papers upended physics). Time magazine named him Person of the Century. His prowess in physics made him one of the greatest scientists of all time. “Einstein remains the last, and perhaps only, physicist ever to become a household name,” says James Overduin, a theoretical physicist at Towson University in Maryland. Born in Ulm, Germany, in 1879, Einstein was a precocious child. As a teenager, he wrote a paper on magnetic fields. (Einstein never actually failed math, contrary to popular lore.) He married twice, the second time to his first cousin, Elsa Löwenthal. The marriage lasted until her death in 1936. Read more: 5 Interesting Things A...
