The concept of refrigeration emerged in the 18th century when Scottish professor William Cullen demonstrated the principles of artificial refrigeration at the University of Glasgow in 1755. He used a pump to create a vacuum over a container of ether, causing it to evaporate and absorb heat, thus lowering the temperature. This foundational idea inspired further developments, leading to the design of practical refrigeration systems in the 19th century, notably by inventors like Jacob Perkins and Carl von Linde. Their innovations transformed refrigeration from a scientific curiosity into a vital technology for food preservation and climate control.

You don't need to go to college to invent. All you have to do is come up with a workable good idea. It would help if you were an engineer, designer, or other related area, but there is no "inventor" college degree.

Inventors are the people who think up useful stuff that no one has thought of before. They may come up with an idea "as a whole" or may take pieces of this idea and that idea to make something new and unique. Inventions are the things inventors create; they are the product or the application that comes out of an inventor's idea. And history is full of inventors and inventions. There are many, many tens of thousands of them both.
