The First Light Bulb

Working in his lab late one night in 1879, Thomas Edison discovered a way to control the electrical current running through a carbon filament, thus clearing the final hurdle of a fifty-year effort to create a commercially viable elctric light bulb.

This JELL-O® exhibit celebrates this famous "current" event.
