Forster stories, but what you probably did not know that this pen also predicted internet, much before the idea of internet even existed. In his 1909 short story’ ‘The Machine Stops’, Forster wrote “There were buttons and switches everywhere – buttons to call for food, for music, for clothing. There was a button that produced literature. And there were of course the buttons by which she communicated with her friends”.

Atomic Bomb Now what do you think is common between English writer Herbert George “H.G” Wells and atomic bomb? In his 1913 work ‘The World Set Free’ he talks describes atomic bomb as “The atomic bombs were thrown…They made a mighty thunder in the air, leaving a flaring trail in the sky…a black background to these tremendous pillars of fire…radio-active vapour drifting sometimes scores of miles from the bomb centre and killing…all they overtook” . 32 years later, the first atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. 5. TV & Mobile Phones Humans are always curious to know about the future. They always like to think ahead of time as to what may happen in the future. In the year 1000, a civil engineer by the name of Mr. Watkins, wrote an article in a home journal titled ‘What May Happen In The Next 100 Years’. He wrote “Man will see around the world. Persons and things of all kinds will be brought within focus of cameras connected electrically with screens at opposite ends of circuits, thousands of miles at a span”. A couple of decades later, television was invented and add a couple more decades to that, mobile phone was on everyone’s hand. 4. The Periodic Table Dmitri Mendeleev, a Russian chemist from the late nineteenth century, predicted the modern-day periodic table nearly perfectly. In 1863, at a time when there were only 60 elements known. He further predicted the other 40 element’s properties and weights. Now, that is what you call passion combined with dedication in research.
