UGary Burghoff UDean Kamen U-Lewis Howard u ... UHerman HollerithNgubani uThomas Edison?
Ibali lakhe le-rag-to-rich-lijika ikamva lobomi bakhe ekubeni yinkwenkwe 'edidekileyo' iye kwelona Melika lihloniphekileyo lihlonitshwayo, phakathi kwezinye ezininzi, kwihlabathi. UThomas Alva Edison ligama ekufanele ukuba liqwalaselwe kunye nakwimijikelezo yesayensi kunye netekhnoloji yehlabathi. Umqambi omkhulu kunye nosomashishini ophambili, wayengoyena nobangela wezinto ezininzi ezifunyanisiweyo kunye nezinto ezintsha ezanceda ukwakha uqoqosho lwaseMelika. Yayibubukrelekrele bakhe, izimvo, ukusebenza nzima kunye nokuzingisa okwamenza waba liimbaleki kwinguqulelo yokuqala yezobuchwephesha eMelika. U-Edison uxelwe ukuba ubeke inqanaba lehlabathi langoku lombane. Kukufumanisa kwakhe kunye nezinto awazenzayo ezaba sisiseko samashishini kwaye zenza ubomi bonwaba kuluntu. Malunga namalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza ali-1093 ase-US kunye namanye amalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza kwamanye amazwe, u-Edison uqinisekisiwe ngezinto ezininzi, kubandakanya isitikha, ifonografi, isibane sokuqala sombane esisebenzayo, ikhamera yemifanekiso eshukumayo, irekhoda yokuvota ngomatshini kunye nebhetri yemoto yombane.Uluhlu olucetyiswayo:Uluhlu olucetyiswayo:

Ityala lemifanekiso https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ifayile:Thomas_Edison2.jpg (ULouis Bachrach, iBachrach Studios, ibuyiswe nguMichel Vuijlsteke / Indawo yoluntu) Ubuntwana kunye noBomi bokuqala Uzalelwe uSamuel Ogden Edison, Jr kunye noNancy Matthews Elliott, UThomas Edison wayengoyena mncinci kubantwana abasixhenxe kwesi sibini. Ngelixa utata wakhe wayelitshantliziyo lezopolitiko, umama wakhe wayeqeshwe njengotitshala. Into enomdla kukuba, u-Edison oselula wafumana imfundo yakhe ngokusesikweni malunga neeveki ezili-12. Emva koko, yayingumama wakhe owathatha uxanduva lokumfundisa ekhaya. Umfundi okhutheleyo, wafunda uluhlu olubanzi lwezifundo kwaye kungekudala wavelisa umkhwa wokuzifundisa. Ukusukela ebutsheni bakhe, wayenobunzima bokuva obonyuka ngokuhamba kweminyaka kwaye phakathi kweminyaka wayephantse abe sisithulu. I-Scarlet fever kuthiwa yimbangela yokungeva. Ngethuba leminyaka yakhe yokuqala, wathengisa amaphephandaba kubagibeli abahamba ngomgaqo kaloliwe weGrand Trunk. Ukufikelela kulwazi oluhlaziyiweyo kwamkhokelela ekubeni aqale elakhe iphephandaba, iGrand Trunk Herald, eyathi yabethwa ngabantu. Kwakhona, yayiyinto yakhe yokuqala kuninzi oluza kuza kumashishini. Ukongeza ekuthengiseni amaphephandaba, waseka ilabhoratri encinci kwaye wenza ulingo lweekhemikhali kwenye yeemoto zemithwalo kaloliwe. Ngelishwa, kuvavanyo olunye kuye kwahamba gwenxa kwaye kwabangela ukuba umlilo ubambe umlilo. Oku kuye kwagqitywa okwethutyana. Isenzo esihle sokugcina ubomi bosana kwisehlo esibuhlungu esitshintshe ubomi bakhe ngonaphakade. Utata onetyala lomntwana wamqeqesha njengomsebenzi wecingo. Ufumene umsebenzi wakhe wokuqala eStratford Junction, e-Ontario. Wahamba yonke iMidwest, esebenzela iinkampani ezahlukeneyo, ngaphambi kokufumana umsebenzi kunye ne-Associated Press bureau news news. Nangona kunjalo, wagxothwa kungekudala ngenxa yokuqhuba uvavanyo ngexesha lomsebenzi.
Qhubeka nokuFunda apha ngezantsiOosomashishini baseMelika Abasunguli baseMelika kunye nabaFumanisi Amadoda e-Aquarius Umsebenzi Wathuthela eNew York, apho waqala khona umsebenzi wakhe njengomqambi. Enye yezinto zakhe zokuqala yayikukuphawula isitokhwe. Echukunyiswe kukusebenza komatshini, iNkampani yeGolide kunye neStock Telegraph yamnika iidola ezingama-40,000 zamalungelo. Ngomnyaka we-1869, wayenelungelo lobunikazi lokurekhoda ivoti yombane, owokuqala kwiluhlu olude olulandelayo. Emva koko wafudukela eNewark, eNew Jersey, apho waseka khona ilabhoratri encinci kwaye waqesha oomatshini. Ishumi leminyaka le-1870 lalizinikele ekwenzeni ulingo kwifowuni, iigramafoni, kaloliwe wombane, isahluli sentsimbi, isibane sombane, kunye nezinye izinto ezenziwayo. Wawandisa umsebenzi wakhe wafudukela eMenlo Park, eNew Jersey. Into eyamzisela umjikelo wakhe wokuqala wodumo kwaye yabeka isikhundla sakhe kwiindawo eziphakamileyo yayiyigramografi, eyasungulwa ngo-1877. Esi sixhobo sincedisa ekurekhodeni isandi kodwa sasinemingxunya ngenxa yokuba aqhubeke esebenza kuso de kwaba lishumi elilandelayo xa 'Igramafoni egqibeleleyo' ekugqibeleni yafumaneka. Ingeniso yezemali ngokuthengisa i-quadruplex telegraph kwi-Western Union ayimncedanga nje ukuba afezekise impumelelo yakhe yokuqala yezemali, kodwa yamnceda ekumiseleni ilabhoratri yeMenlo Park yokuphumeza inkqubela phambili kwezobuchwephesha kunye nezinto ezintsha. Ngomnyaka we-1877, waqulunqa imakrofoni yekhabhoni esetyenziswe kwiifowuni, ukusasazwa kwirediyo kunye nemisebenzi yedilesi yoluntu. Ukuqhubela phambili, wasebenza kwibhalbhu yombane, eyayiyinto yokufunda kwabaqambi abahlukeneyo ngaphambili. Uzukiswa ngokuqamba ukukhanya kokuqala kokuthengisa, engenazo zonke iziphene ezazenziwe ziibhalbhu zangaphambili. Ngomnyaka we-1878, wenza i-Edison Electric Light Inkampani kwisixeko saseNew York. Kunyaka olandelayo, wabonisa isibane sakhe sesibane esingaginyiswanga okokuqala. Isicelo sokuqala sentengiso se-bulb sasise-Columbia, umjelo omtsha we-Oregon kaloliwe kunye neNkampani yokuhamba. Ngo-1880, emva kokufumana ilungelo elilodwa lomenzi webhalbhu yesibane, waseka iNkampani ekhanyisa i-Edison, enenjongo yokuhambisa umbane ukubonelela ngamandla kunye nokukhanyisa izixeko zehlabathi. Umtyali mali wokuqala wenkampani ophethe umbane wamiselwa ePearl Street Station. Iyunithi ibibandakanyekile ekuveliseni i-volts ezili-110 zangoku ngqo kubathengi abangama-59. Ngo-1883, uRoselle, eNew Jersey, wabona ubungqina bokuqala bokukhanya kombane basebenzise iingcingo eziphezulu. Qhubeka nokufunda apha ngezantsi Nge-1887, bekukho malunga nezikhululo zamandla ezili-121 ezasekwa yi-US ezazizisa umbane kubathengi. Ezinye izinto awazenzayo ngeli xesha yayiyi-fluoroscopy, indlela-ezimbini yocingo, i-kinetoscope, njalo njalo. Emva koko waqalisa ilabhoratri yophando kwimizi-mveliso eWest Orange, eNew Jersey, neyasisiseko selabhoratri yophando ephambili yeenkampani zokukhanyisa i-Edison. Kwakuselebhu eseNtshona yeOrange awathi wasebenza kuphuhliso lobuchwephesha bokukhanyisa, wayenza yafezekiswa iigramafoni, wenza ikhamera yemifanekiso eshukumayo kwaye waseka ibhetri yokugcina ialkali. Ekupheleni kwenkulungwane, wakhawuleza waziguqula ekubeni ngumqambi waba ngusomashishini kunye nomphathi weshishini. Umsebenzi ophambili awayezibandakanya nawo ngeli xesha yayikukuphucula ibhetri yokugcina efanelekileyo enokuqhuba imoto yombane. Ibhetri yokuqala eyilelweyo eyenzelwe ukuqala kwayo yayiyiModeli T kaHenry Ford, umhlobo kunye nothandayo. Ukuyilwa kube yimpumelelo enkulu kwaye kwasetyenziswa kakhulu de kwayimashumi eminyaka kamva ngumzi mveliso weemoto. Wenziwa intloko yeBhodi yokuNxibelelana noMkhosi wamanzi ngexesha leMfazwe yeHlabathi yokuQala. Igqwetha elomeleleyo lokungabikho kobundlobongela, wazibandakanya kwiiprojekthi ezenzelwe izixhobo ezikhuselayo, ezinje ngeenqanawa zasemanzini kunye nobuchule bendawo yemipu. I-patent yakhe yokugqibela, eyayiyi-patent yakhe ye-1093 ye-US, yayiyizixhobo zokubamba izinto ngexesha lenkqubo yokwenza i-electroplating 
Imisebenzi emikhulu Uzukiswa ngamalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza ali-1093 aseMelika kwaye uqinisekiswe ngezinto ezininzi ezinegalelo elikhulu kunxibelelwano oluninzi nakunxibelelwano ngomnxeba. Phakathi koluhlu olude lwezinto ezifunyanisiweyo, ezona zibalulekileyo ziiticker, igramafoni, ibhalbhu yombane yokuqala esebenzayo, ikhamera yemifanekiso eshukumayo, irekhoda yokuvota ngomatshini kunye nebhetri yemoto yombane. Qhubeka nokuFunda apha ngezantsi Amabhaso kunye neMpumelelo Wayonwabile ngeembasa ezininzi kunye namabhaso ngegalelo lakhe elibabazekayo eluntwini. Eminye phakathi kwabo ibandakanya, ukwahlulwa kunye 'neGosa loMkhosi weMbeko' yiFrance, iMedical Service Medal yi-US Navy kunye ne-Congressional Gold Medal yi-US. Wachithwa kwiHolo yoLwazi loLwazi lwaseNew Jersey kunye nohambo loLwazi loShishino. Wenziwa ilungu elihloniphekileyo kumaziko aliqela abalulekileyo kubandakanya iRoyal Swedish Academy yezeNzululwazi, ukuthengwa kweLouanaana yokuThengiswa kweMidlalo yeLizwe kunye neZiko leSayensi leSizwe. Ufumene iindondo ezahlukeneyo kubandakanya iMedali kaJohn Scott, imbasa kaEdward Longstreth, uMedali kaJohn Fritz, imbasa kaFranklin kunye noEdison. Umhla wokuzalwa kwakhe uphawulwe njengoSuku lweSizwe soMsunguli 
Ubomi boBuntu kunye nelifa Watshata kabini ebomini bakhe. Umtshato wakhe wokuqala yayinguMary Stilwell ngo-1871, owamzalela abantwana abathathu. Emva kokubulawa kabuhlungu ngumfazi wakhe ngo-1884, wabopha iqhina okwesibini iminyaka emibini kuMina Miller. Esi sibini sinabantwana abathathu. Uphefumle okokugqibela ngo-Okthobha u-18, 1931 emva kokuphathwa sisifo seswekile. Wangcwatywa ngasemva kwekhaya lakhe eGlenmont, eWest Orange, eNew Jersey. Ukusweleka kwakhe kwakukhalisiwe ngabantu kwihlabathi liphela, abathi banciphisa okanye bacima amandla abo ombane ukukhumbula ukufa kwakhe. Ukuhlawula amagalelo enziwe ngulo msunguli wodumo, izikolo ezininzi, iikholeji, amaziko, iimyuziyam, izikhumbuzo, iipaki, izakhiwo kunye neebhulorho zithiywe ngaye. Kwezi, ezona zibalulekileyo yidolophu yase-Edison, eNew Jersey ebizwa ngegama lakhe. Inqaku Eyaziwa ngokuba yi-‘Wizard of Menlo Park ’, lo msunguli weqonga onike umhlaba ibhalbhu yombane yokuqala esetyenziswayo ephethwe kukungeva kakuhle ukususela ebutsheni kwaye waba sisithulu xa sele emdala.
