Resources

In 1792, gas lighting William Murdoch experiments with gas lamps. In fact, Murdoch and Minckelers made the gas lamp usable thanks to the principle of distillation of coal in a closed environment.

The steam locomotive was invented in 1804 by Richard Trevithick in the United Kingdom. Steam traction remained the most commonly used type of traction, from the birth of the railway until the 1950s.

On August 19, 1839, during an official session at the Institut de France, Jacques Louis Daguerre disclosed the first photographic process to which he gave his name: this was the birth of the daguerreotype.

On March 2, 1791, Claude Chappe (1763-1805) succeeded in the first public attempt at distance communication between two municipalities 14 km apart: he had just invented the optical telegraph.

1856: first oil drilling Indeed, according to the archives, on August 27, 1859, the American Edwin L. Drake extracted oil for the first time by drilling, at a depth of around twenty meters, in Titusville, Pennsylvania.

Steel The industrial revolution appeared thanks to the development of new manufacturing methods and conversion of cast iron into steel. In 1856, the Bessemer process was capable of directly producing steel from cast iron. Its improvement by Thomas and Gilchrist allows its generalization.

you're almost there. You have now arrived at the penultimate room.

The goal of the game is simple: you have 4 rooms (numbered 1 to 4). Each room has 4 objects and you will have to select one based on the clue given to you. When you think you have found the right item, click on it and a number will appear. You then have the choice between moving to the next room by clicking on the green button or returning to the room to inspect another object with the red button at the top left. At the end of the 4 rooms you should have collected 4 numbers collected according to the order of the rooms. All you have to do is choose the right code and that's it.

To sow seeds in the ground

To draw on the ground

To chase away insects

Image N° 1

The "seed drill" was a major innovation that was able to plant seeds in the earth instead of on the surface which would cause the seeds to be blown away or eaten by animals. This innovation greatly increased crop yields simply by inserting the seeds into the ground.

In New Jersey in 1877, Thomas Edison invented the "phonograph". This device could record and play sounds. To record, you spoke into a cylinder attached to the device, and the sound waves moved a needle in the device which created a groove on a piece of tin foil. Sound could be then played back by a stylus that traced the groove, causing it to reproduce the sound

Pope Leo XIII, seated with Msgr Satolli, speaks a message into a phonograph, 1893.

What was the name of the hidden invention ?

The Watt Steam Engine

The electromagnet

The telegraph

The steam engine was invented by Scottish engineer James Watt in 1769. It is considered the first truly efficient steam engine, as it solved the problem of energy wastage through the use of a separate condenser.

Welc

what is important to remember

The industrial revolution took place in Britain from the late 18th to the 19th century. It is named the "industrial Revolution" because it was a time that many people in Britain stopped farming and strated working in factories.

Welc

what is important to remember

Before the Industrial revolution, many people in Britain lived on farms, where they looked after animals and grew their own food. The fastest way to get anywere was by horse and cart. Crafts, such as making pots and cloth, were completed by hands.
