Hello friends how are you. Today in this new post of Great Scientist. I tell you about Sir Thomas Alva Edison. So let start the post.
Before staring this new post. There is one question for you.
In your house you use bulb but who invented that bulb?
Your answer tell me in comment...

Thomas Alva Edison
The scientist who invented the electric light bulb and many other important devices- Thomas Alva Edison, was born on February 11, 1847, at Milan, Ohio, in the united state of America. He came from a poor family. His parents admited him to a local primary school. This inquisitive child always posed question to his teachers. But his teachers instead of providing him with answers considered him stupid and rejected him. Finally, his self-respecting mother stopped his schooling and took upon herself the task of teaching him. Coupled with this, Edison loved to experiment. He would experiment with any object he could lay his hands on.
After getting permission from his father, at the age of 12, Edition started selling newspapers in train. He would travel the 96 Km distance from Huron port to Michigan city and sell newspapers. He liked his worked, besides it brought him money. In 1869, he purchased a printing press. In a railway compartment he would print he journal Grand Trunk Herald. Most of the content was written by him. He would also perform experiments during his spare time. During one such experiment, phosphorus fell on the floor and the compartment got enuglfed in the fire. The rail-guard arrived and threw out all contains of his laboratory. The enraged guard slapped Edition dur to which he was left short of hearing in one ear.
It seemed as if the world he came to n end. But Edition didn't admite defeat and give up. It came as a blessing in disguise. Now he started selling newspaper at the station itself. He gradually got interested in electricity. His experience with engines and railroad repaired shops turned his thoughts towards machine and inventions. One bright morning Edition was talking to the telegraph operator Mackenzie, whose little son Jimmie was playing at the station . In the middle of the conversation, Edition saw a little baby crawling alone the stony track, in front of the small-car. Edition realized the danger and rushed towards the child. He seized the child and jumped safety, but the car struck him on the legs and ear. It was the second blow in his ear. As a reward for the brave deed, Mackenzie offered to tech Edition telegraphy and promised him a job on the line. A thrilled Edition grabbed the opportunity. He was lucky to have an offer for a paid job at the Port Huron telegraph office and at age of 16, he get a better job as a night operator at a station in Canada, on the Grand Trunk Railway. Every hour he had to send 'signal six' which proved that the operator was awake. The signal come through from Edition station exactly at the correct time. But attempts to get him over his own frequently failed. One night an official come to check and found Edition fast asleep. Beside him was a mechanism connecting a telegraph with the clock and when the clock struck the hour, small machine sent the signal over the wire. He was fired. After worked hours, he used his time to developed a 'vote recorder' which worked on electricity.
After a few days, he decided to move to New York for better opportunities. But life was not easy. Finding a job was difficult. While searching for a job, he landed up at a company office, which sold information to its clients about stock exchange rates through its machines. One of their machines, 'Good inspector' had broken down. Edison checked the machine and repaired it in minutes. The manager was pleased and immediately offered him for s job besides rewarding him for his for his repair work. Whit this money he started a workshop in New Jersey. In association with another engineer, he developed a telegraphic equipment which fetched him a good price.
In 1876, he went to Menlo Park and improved upon the telephone invention by Alexander Graham Bell, by providing better sound quality by inventing carbon granule microphone. He also went on to invent a talking machine called the phonograph. This machine could reproduce the pre-recorded sounds on a steel disc revolving on it. A German scientist improved a machine and made the gramophone in1887. Edition gained quite a bit of reputation with his phonograph. But the height of his popularity come with the intention of the electric light bulb. In 1879, with the help of 30 assistant, he organised a public demonstration. He had covered a part of Menlow park with electric light bulbs. The next morning the New York Herald published the news of the wonderful invention of Thomas Alva Edison became a famous man.
Within a two years he again surprised the world with yet another spectacular invention. This time it was the kinetograph, a kind of movie camera. He even created a machine that could project visuals on a screen which the called Kinetoscope. He connected the phonograph with it and projected audio-visual images on the screen.
This genius had 1,069 patents to his credit. He had noted down the intrecacies of his invention in about 3,500 notebooks. It is most surprising that this scientist was not awarded a Nobel prize for his invention, thorough he is considered as a greatest inventor of all times. In 1914, at the age of 67, Edition expressed his gratitude towards his nation by gifting the American Army with about 40 useful inventions.
On October 18, 1931, Edison died at the age of 84. He was buried at west orange in New Jersey. This great inventor was honoured across america when electric light bulbs across the nation dimmed for a minute. He has worked his way up with great difficulty's. He believe that his success was 1% inspiration and 99% prespiration. We are greatful to this self-mate man who made this world a better place with hard work and perseverance, aided with extraordinary genius.
