Neil Armstrong
Neil Armstrong, the man who first walked on the moon, needs no introduction. He happens to be an aerospace engineer and a man who built the very foundation for all the space expeditions that were later enhanced by the oncoming generations.
Philip Condit
He was responsible for making the first of Boeings, which fly high even today. Philip Condit takes most credit for all the air travel that takes place in the world today. A graduate from MIT and Tokyo University, Philip ranks among the engineers who have changed the world.
A century and a half ago, there were no automobiles that enabled people to commute from one place to another, except for carriages. This was until Karl Benz, the German Engineer made the first ever modern car. He is responsible for the invention of internal combustion engine which was used in his car.
Steve Wozniak
Co-founder of Apple Inc. Steve Wozniak might not have become as popular as Jobs but he is one of the masterminds behind Apple. This electrical engineer was the man who designed Apple I and Apple II computers all by himself in the early days of the company.
George Stephenson
‘Father of the railways’ George Stephenson was the man who built the first ever inter-city railway. He was a civil and a mechanical engineer who was responsible for the revolution of locomotives that began shortly after his invention. The rail gauge that he invented is named after him and is called the ‘Stephenson Gauge’ to this day.
The world continues to see the rise of more and more life changing inventors and innovators. The best is yet to come!
