NIKOLA TESLA
- Invented the Tesla coil
- The Tesla coil produced electricity by a rota spinning at enough speed so it could conduct electricity.
- We still use his use of electricity waves today in cars, radios and television sets.

STEVEN HAWKING
- theoretical physicist whose theory of exploding black holes drew upon both relativity theory and quantum mechanics. He also worked with space-time singularities.
- he completely changed the way we think about black holes.
- He was born exactly 300 years after Galileo died, and he passed away on Einstein's birthday.
- In 1982 the Queen awarded him the title of CBE: Commander of the British Empire.
