Wonders of the Microscope Revealed
Thousands of years ago the world was deprived of the tiny, miniscule beauty of it. The bacteria were then an unknown object and many other objects that cannot be seen by the naked eye. It wasn’t until the magnifying lens was discovered did mankind discover the small beauty that was around them.
The magnifying lens or glasses first appeared at a book called, The Book of Optics that was published at 1021. But nobody really knows where the discovery of the magnifying glass started. Someone from the past hastily picked up a kind of glass that was thicker than ordinary and discovered that objects looked bigger when one peeped through it; this is basically where it all started.
The world should thank that person since if not because of that person, the world would have been different. The world won’t probably even know the word penicillin or anti-biotic.
