Invention & Inventors

Last week, we got a new unit called “inventor and inventions”. Then we watched brain pop about 2 inventors and their inventions. And we talked about each of their main qualities, and we maid a conclusion that there are some qualities which mostly all of the inventors have like: intelligence, creative and many others.
Microscopes
Now, today, microscope plays a big role in our lives, and makes our lives even better and easier, but no one actually knows who and how they made it so this is the who and how:
The role of microscope.
Microscope is a laboratorial optical system for viewing tiny objects that are too small to be seen by the human eye. The science of investigating tiny objects using this optical system is called microscopy.
In the 1st AD glass was invented by Romans. The Romans tried to use glasses with different shapes and it worked. They discovered that, by using the glass when it has thick middle and thin edge, it can make things look larger. They called them lenses. An unknown person discovered that the lens can start a fire when it’s focused the rays of the sun with these lenses. In the mid 13th century few people tried to produce lenses to be used as glasses. And it worked. The early microscopes were just magnifying glasses. They put some glasses in a tube and made a huge discovery. The object at the end of the tube appeared huge, larger than magnifying glasses. Galileo Galilee heard about the new discovery and started trying to do one of his own microscopes. He described all the principles of the lenses and the sun rays (light rays) and “improved” the microscope and telescope. He developed compound microscope which has convex and a concave lens. He, Galileo Galilee, explored the world with his very own telescope.
Now, everyday microscopes are being used to make a lot of scientific discoveries, which leads to new way of living and it helps to keep us alive too. If we didn’t have any microscopes we would probably be dying in age of 30-40 without knowing our bodies and other scientifical objects like medicine.
