Benjamin Franklin is credited with inventing both the bifocals and the lightning rod. He created bifocals to address his presbyopia, a condition that causes difficulty in focusing on close objects, and he invented the lightning rod to protect buildings from lightning strikes by grounding the electrical charge.
the skylander (lightning Rod) will com out at March the 21
When lightning strikes a lightning rod, the last place the charges flow is into the ground through the metal rod, which provides a safe path for the electrical current. This helps protect the building from damage by directing the energy away from the structure and into the ground.
A lightning rod is a metal rod installed on the roof of a building to intercept lightning strikes and safely conduct the electrical charge to the ground, thus preventing it from causing a fire inside the house. The rod provides a path of least resistance for the lightning to follow, protecting the structure by dissipating the potentially harmful electrical energy.
More buildings would be destroyed by fires started by lightning
Thomas Edison is credited with inventing the light bulb in 1879. He developed a practical and commercially viable incandescent light bulb that revolutionized the way we light our homes and buildings. Edison's pioneering work in electric lighting laid the foundation for the modern lighting industry.
