In 1879, Thomas Edison invented the incandescent light bulb. How did he do it? He used lower current electricity, a small carbonized filament, and a vacum inside a globe. Many people tried to do this before, but nobody was as successful. Edison creation was the first that had been considered even remotely practical for home use. To go along with the incandescent light, Edison invented an electric lighting system that contained elemements that were necessary to use incandescent light bulb. After over a year of hard work, he was able to create an incandescent lamp with carbonized sewing thread inside that burned for thirteen and a half hours. The invention of the incandescent light bulb moved the world forward. Not only was it an uprising source of light in the late 19th century, but we still use the light bulbs today.
