On 12 November 1990, Tim Berners-Lee and Robert Cailliau, computer scientists at CERN, laid the foundation for a technological revolution by formally proposing the concept of the World Wide Web.

Their visionary document outlined a hypertext-based system to improve communication and information-sharing across CERN, connecting documents via hyperlinks to create an interconnected "web" accessible through the Internet.

This proposal would become the cornerstone of the modern web, transforming how humanity accesses and shares knowledge, ultimately shaping the course of global communication and connectivity.
