Realistically? The search for knowledge has led to, or had a significant contribution to, the development of microwaves, radar, radio, superconductivity, computers, refridgeration, digital cameras, the internet and much more. When the theories that underpin most of these inventions were first discovered and tested, many people asked the same question - how does this help me? And then 20 years later some clever engineer invents a little box that heats up food. So give it time - almost every invention know to man once started as someone saying "I wonder how this works?"

I consider the great invention for mankind is the writing and more specifically the alphabet!\nThe inventor of the alphabet was living on the island Crete, south of Athens, north of Egypt, some 4,000 years ago!

That's a superb question!\n\nI guess the Manhattan project is the obvious answer, but I'd like to go back and undo the invention of the wheel, just to see what would happen ;-)

Most notable was Watt's 1769 patent for a separate condenser connected to a cylinder by a valve. Unlike Newcomen's engine, Watt's design had a condenser that could be cool while the cylinder was hot.\nFor a complete history of the steam engine see link below

Alexander Graham Bell.\nHe introduced us to advanced communications. telecommunication, communication in general (via phone, computer, or video) is probably the biggest and most influential invention of all time.  It dictates our whole world in every aspect of our lives.   Where would we be without cell phones or email and all that encompasses those!
