Percy LeBaron Spencer is regarded as the inventor of the microwave oven. Spencer worked as an engineer with the Raytheon company, which was a company that developed defence and industrial equipment. The story goes that the concept of the microwave was discovered by accident while Spencer was experimenting with and testing a magnetron (diode vacuum tube).
The magnetron, which had been invented during WWII at Manchester University, produced microwaves of such high frequency and power that it was invaluable in directing allied aircraft to intercept German Luftwaffe raiders during the battle of Britain.
The magnetron was passed to Raytheon in the USA for further development. During testing, Dr Spencer reached into his pocket for his chocolate bar and discovered it had completely melted. He noted the connection between the melted chocolate and the heat-producing magnetron, and tested his theory on a bag of unpopped corn kernels, which then popped. In further testing, he placed an egg in front of the magnetron, and the egg exploded.
For this reason, Spencer is credited with discovering one of the critical components of the microwave oven. Further modifications of the microwave oven developed out of his observations, and by 1947 Raytheon had perfected a commercial microwave oven. It was a large unit about the size of a tall cupboard and remained large until the Apollo 11 astronauts returned to Earth and were immediately quarantined in a sealed caravan in case they had brought Moon bacteria back to Earth. They cooked their meals on one of the first counter top Microwave ovens ever made.

The first magnetron was invented by Randall and Boot at Bournemouth University in 1940. Due to the exigencies of war, this invention like many others was suppressed from public knowledge at the time.
in was invented in 1947
Telephone The telephone was invented in 1876.The light bulb was invented in 1879. The microwave was invented in 1945.
The microwave oven was invented by Percy Spencer, an American engineer working for Raytheon Corporation, in 1945. While experimenting with radar equipment, he discovered that microwave radiation had the ability to cook food quickly. This led to the development of the first microwave oven for commercial use.
Microwave telescopes were invented to observe celestial objects in the microwave portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which allows astronomers to study phenomena that are not visible in optical wavelengths. This includes the detection of cosmic microwave background radiation, which provides insight into the early universe, as well as the study of molecular clouds and star formation. By using microwaves, scientists can gather data on the composition, temperature, and dynamics of these astronomical entities, enhancing our understanding of the cosmos.
Do not microwave melamine. It will absorb the radiation and heat the bowl, plate, etc. and not the food. If it gets hot enough the melamine can become unstable creating bubbles or a break down in structure. Melamine resin will not melt and does have flame retardant properties making it great for many uses except in the microwave. Why then do they use it in kitchen wears? Well its cheap and until the advent of the microwave it served its purpose.

A microwave bacon cooker is designed to produce crisp bacon. It may not taste as good as stove-top fried bacon, but it will come out crispier with a cooker than by just microwaving bacon on a plate.
