Thomas Alva Edison
THE LIGHT BULB
A. The electric light, one of the everyday inventions that have great influences on our lives, was not "invented" in the traditional sense. Thomas Alva Edison was neither the first nor the only person trying to invent a light bulb. Twenty three different light bulbs were developed before Edison's. However, Edison is often known as the inventor because his version was better than the earlier versions.
B. Edison was born on 11 February 1847, in Milan, Ohio. He was the youngest of seven children of Samuel and Nancy Edison. His father was a political activist from Canada, while his mother was an accomplished schoolteacher and a major influence in Edison's early life.
C. In 1878, Thomas Edison began serious research into developing a practical lamp. Edison and his lab associates conducted thousands of experiments to develop the electric light bulb. The greatest challenge was to find a material that could serve as a long-lasting filament. By 4 November 1879, he filed a patent for an electric lamp using a carbon filament.
D. This discovery marked the beginning of commercial light bulbs. In 1880, Thomas Edison's company, Edison Electric Light Company, began marketing its new product. Almost every household now owns one light bulb. The invention has put an end to humans' experience of darkness.
