Summary |
In 1878, scientists despaired of finding a practical, durable electric light. New Jersey inventor Thomas Edison secured financial backing and his team of scientists and inventors tried out thousands of theories before eventually creating a workable light. This historic patent, dated January 27, 1880, paved the way for electric lighting. |
