On 28 October 1831, Michael Faraday demonstrated his dynamo invention, a breakthrough in science and engineering that paved the way for modern electrical power generation.
In his experiment, Faraday showcased how moving a magnet through a coil of wire induced an electric current—a principle now known as electromagnetic induction.
This discovery enabled the transformation of mechanical energy into electrical energy, forming the foundation of today's generators and motors.
Faraday’s dynamo would profoundly influence technological progress, setting humanity on a path toward electrification and radically altering industries, societies, and the everyday lives of people around the globe.
