As for me, it is difficult to pick out three the most important inventions from inventions which are not less important than them. So I think that the most significant inventions and events of the last 50 years are: invention of computer, internet and the latest discovery is cloning, which has been made not long ago, in 1997. Our century is a century of developing informational connection. When Charles Babbage invented the first calculating machine in 1812 he could hardly have imagined the situation we find ourselves today. Computer becomes like a brain of human but the only thing it cannot do is to feel.
Nowadays computers play a huge role in our day-to-day life. They simplified our life a lot. Importance of computers increased rapidly. They help housewives in the kitchens and in systems of air traffic control. This invention resulted to other discoveries, like internet and cd-rom. Also a lot of new professions appeared, like programmer and system administrator. Internet was created in the 1969 as the result of a secret project in the USA. However, the internet, in the way we understand it was invented , in 1980th. Nowadays the internet connects nearly all parts of our planet.
With the help of the internet we can visit museums and art galleries, learn the latest news, prepare home assignment. Also The Internet is used for communication. We can send e-mail and chat with friends and people all over the world. And do many other activities without going out from our homes. In 1997 English scientists managed to create an exact biological copy of a sheep. This method was named cloning. This success led to tough debates in society. Cloning can made a revolution in agriculture; scientists will start cloning the best specimens of plants and animals. It can be useful in medicine.
The Term Paper on Computers Internet Computer Time History
Computers in the 1950'people have been in awe of computers since they were first invented. At first scientist said that computers would only be for government usage only. "Then when the scientists saw the potential computers had, scientist then predicted that by 1990 computers may one day invade the home of just about ever citizen in the world" ("History" Internet), the scientists were slightly ...
It will be possible to grow new organs to help ill people, to cure many diseases. Also cloning can use for saving animals which are in danger of extinction. But on the other hand, scientists know very few about in. We don’t know how it will influence on people. I think we live in a very interesting period. There is a rapid progress of technology and science, so by the end of, for example, 2020 our life will have changed greatly. Nearly every day scientists make new inventions. And more over that we don’t even know what it is going to be tomorrow. I believe mankind stand on the threshold of even greatest discoveries.
