The Alexander Fleming, while looking for an antibiotic, failed to clean some of his glassware adequately.

It went down in history as one of those "happy accidents" when he noticed something on a not-so-clean petri dish had the properties he was searching for. Namely, suppression of the growth of certain kinds of bacteria.
