Kahn are known as the "fathers of the Internet" for their invention of the TCP/IP architecture in the 1970s. Their goal was to develop a set of communication protocols that would allow computers to exchange information and communicate efficiently on a wide network. They presented TCP/IP in 1973, laying the foundation for the creation of a global network of interconnected computers. They also contributed to the development of other fundamental elements of the Internet, such as DNS servers and routing infrastructure. Thanks to their work, the Internet became the worldwide network that revolutionized the way people communicate and share information around the world.]]> 2023-06-29 13:33:44 UTC https://padlet.com/aalvarez132/q7771kc32bhwxc1k/wish/2635178499 https://padlet.com/aalvarez132/q7771kc32bhwxc1k/wish/2635178678 László Bíró patented what is considered the first ballpoint pen in 1938.

After hearing about the "Danish perspective glass" in 1609, Galileo constructed his own telescope. He subsequently demonstrated the telescope in Venice.

A telescope is a tool that made astronomer's work easier to see faraway objects. Most telescopes, and all large telescopes, work by using curved mirrors to gather and focus light from the night sky. The first telescopes focused light by using pieces of curved, clear glass, called lenses.
