what two scientist experimented on air current?

I think it was Blair and Bush, or was that just 'hot air' experiments?

In 1450, the Italian art architect Leon Battista Alberti invented the first mechanical anemometer. This instrument consisted of a disk placed perpendicular to the wind. It would rotate by the force of the wind, and by the angle of inclination of the disk the wind force momentary showed itself. The same type of anemometer was later re-invented by Englishman Robert Hooke who is often mistakenly considered the inventor of the first anemometer. The Mayans were also building wind towers (anemometers) at the same time as Hooke. Another reference credits Wolfius as re-inventing the anemometer in 1709.

It was invented by Micheal Faraday.  It was perfected by Robert Bunsen and his assistant, Peter Desaga.\n\nSee http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunsen_burner

Umm,.. hmm.  You should probably google this, keyword: superconductors.  Its not really a new discovery.

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman who developed many devices which greatly influenced life in the 20th century. Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park" by a newspaper reporter, he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production to the process of invention, and can therefore be credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory. Some of the inventions credited to him were not completely original, but alterations of earlier patents (most famously the light bulb), or were actually the work of his numerous employees. Nevertheless, Edison is considered one of the most prolific inventors in history, holding 1,093 U.S. patents in his name, as well as many patents in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany.

There is some dispute over who discovered oxygen.  Joseph Priestley and Antoine Lavoisier both worked on the discovery of oxygen.  Lavoisier published his work first, but I believe that Priestly did his work first.\n\nAntoine Lavoisier named hydrogen, but it was generated and described in earlier experiments by Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim, Robert Boyle, and Henry Cavendish.

2006 \n\n With a brilliant idea and equations based on Einstein’s relativity theories, Ronald Mallett from the University of Connecticut has devised an experiment to observe a time traveling neutron in a circulating light beam. While his team still needs funding for the project, Mallett calculates that the possibility of time travel using this method could be verified within a decade.

william gilbert\n\nWilliam Gilbert first coined the term "electricity" from the Greek word for amber. Gilbert wrote about the electrification of many substances in his "De magnete, magneticisique corporibus". He was also the first person to use the terms electric force, magnetic pole, and electric attraction.

Wright Brothers. They actually invent aeronautical engineering. Their basic principles are still used today. Their models airfoils indicated thin wings worked. Large wings and slow air thicker gives more lift. It was about the only refinement of their work. Their propeller was designed from the principles of airfoil as well and the curves are the ones still used today.\nThey rewrote the erroneous lifting tables of Lillinathall, Bell, others. Amazing really.
