Do Mistakes Lead To Discoveries?
Do mistakes lead to discoveries?
I think that mistakes do lead to discoveries like, when Percy Spencer was standing near the Magnetron and his candy bar was melted then realized that the Magnetron was heating the area up then, he asked for some popcorn kernels and put them close to the Magnetron and they popped minutes later, so then the microwave was created about 20 years later through many mistakes. In “Lost Cities, Lost Treasure” a man named Heinrich Schliemann was digging in the ground of a turkish city, seeking the lost city of Troy and when he was he did not have the money to excavate the area. Then, he found a british archaeologist named Frank Calvert and he owned a site that might hold the lost city of Troy and he also did not have
the money to dig up the area, So Heinrich decided to pitch in whatever he had to dig up the area. Then Calvert didn’t want anybody to find out that they were digging to hope to find Troy, So after that Schliemann wanted to dig his way, he was convinced that he knew how far down to dig and how to do it. In “How a Melted bar of Chocolate Changed our Kitchens” Percy Spencer changed our lives by carrying a chocolate bar into a factory. When he was a kid he liked to tinker with things and discover how they worked. Percy went to work to help his family when he was about 16 years old. He worked full time in a machine shop, the shop decided to convert to electrical power and volunteered to help out, even though he had never had any training before. By the time they were done he had all the training he needed to become an electrician. Then, he became a navy seal telegraph operator and taught himself at night what he needed to know. After that he became the 5th employee at Raytheon and he continued learning and inventing. While he was there he invented the Magnetron used for tracking things. While he was standing near it he realized that the chocolate bar in his pocket had melted. Then he invented the microwave from the chocolate bar.
