Pyramids may date back as far as 5,000 B.C. Research is going on in Sudan. Some day you may join a dig looking for the earliest ones.

Telescopes go back to the 1500s. Galileo discovered the moons of Jupiter using a telescope.

Attempts to make a typewriter go back to the 1800s, if not earlier. Around 1870 Thomas Edison took one model and upgraded it so it could take quite a pounding.

People had been using green moldy bread as a treatment for years. Then Dr. Flemming took the substance from the mold and discovered the most appropriate dose for each person.

It became available to the general population in 1945
