TOP 10 REMARKABLE ENGINEERS OF ALL TIME


10. Alan Turing :
Alan Turing developed the binary architecture now used in all computers, as well as much of the theory behind computers.
9. Nicolaus Otto :
Nicolaus Otto was a German ENGINEER credited with developing the four-stroke or Otto-cycle engine which sparked the development of the motor care.
8. Nikola Tesla :
Every electrical engineer should have a picture of Nikola tattooed somewhere on their bodies. Maybe not a tattoo but at least have a picture of him hanging in their office.
Tesla’s inventions make him arguably the greatest electrical engineer of all time.
His inventions include fluorescent lighting, the Tesla coil, the induction motor, and 3-phase electricity. He developed the AC-current generation system comprised of a motor and a transformer.
7. Archimedes :
It was Archimedes who came up with the simple yet clever idea of determining an object’s volume by measuring the amount of water displaced by the object.
6. James Watt :
James Watt was an enthusiastic ENGINEER whose improvement of the steam engine sparked the Industrial Revolution
5. Hero of Alexandria :
This man could have started the Industrial Revolution in 50 AD with the invention of the Aeolipile, a form of steam or jet engine where jets of steam spin a ball. However, he failed to realize what the device could do, and thought of it as nothing but a toy.
4. Wilbur and Orville Wright :
The Wright brothers were the first to look at propeller design and aerodynamics, profoundly changing the world.
3. Henry Ford :
Ford produced cars at a record-breakingrate forever changing the automobile industry.
2. Thomas Edison :
Edison is the most prolific inventor in history, holding a record 1,097 patents.
1. Leonardo da Vinci :
Leonardo foresaw everything from the helicopter to the tank to the submarine. There have been few individuals in the history of engineering who have designed so many revolutionary devices that actually worked.

FINALY BERMUDA TRIANGLE MYSTERY SOLVED...!!

Computer studies of ocean floors around the world, particularly the area known as The Bermuda Triangle, reveal evidence of massive methane explosions in the past. For years, believers in the paranormal, aliens, and other outlandish theories pointed to the the disappearance of ships and aircraft as an indicator of mysterious forces at work in the “Devil’s triangle.” Scientists have finally pointed the rest of us to a more plausible cause. The presence of methane hydrates indicates enormous eruptions of methane bubbles that would swamp a ship, and projected high into the air- take out flying airplanes, as well. Any ships caught within the methane mega-bubble immediately lose all buoyancy and sink to the bottom of the ocean. If the bubbles are big enough and possess a high enough density they can also knock aircraft out of the sky with little or no warning. Aircraft falling victim to these methane bubbles will lose their engines-perhaps igniting the methane surrounding...
