- Wilhelm Roentgen, born 1845, was a physical and mechanical engineer. He made medical history by accidentally discovering the X-ray.
- One day 1895, while Wilhelm was in his lab, he began testing if the Cathode rays could pass through glass.
- HUH?
- Roentgen was surprised when he saw a green light passing through the ray and projecting onto a screen.
- As he continued observing the strange light, he noticed that any type of liquid cannot be seen on screen. That includes human skin as well, which showed the human bone. Due to him not knowing what the rays were called he named it X-ray.
