  • The submarine

    What started as an irritating, but still deadly, weapon in world war grew into a monstrosity in world
    war two sinking than any other type of weapon used. Today, with the advent of of power-wich gave the
    submarine nearly unlimited range and endurance-it has become the capital warship in every first class Navy in
    the world and as such has effectively rendered naval warfare of the past obsolete

  • The Airplane

    Not only they made travel quick and safe, but
    aircraft provide many other services as well: from crop dusting and fighting forest fires to
    overnight delivery of packages and chasing hurricanes

  • The automobile

    Henry Ford´s made the automobile affordable and accesible to the average person (before Ford´s
    model T was introduced in 1908, only the fabulously wealthy could afford car). The automobile give everyone
    a degree of mobility and personal freedom our forefathers could only dream of, and turned entire generations
    of teenagers into raging revheads.

  • The Radio

    Few people today can appreciate the impact the advent of radio had on the twentieth century. Not
    only did it suddenly make it possible for a person to be heard from hundreds or even thousands of miles away
    without the use of a wire (quite an accomplishment in the first years of the century) but it was the center of
    family life through the end of the Second World War and into the doldrums of the fifties, when it was gradually
    replaced by that new-fangled contraption, the television.
