All of the following are scientists during the 1703 - 1930 A.D. in the modern world EXCEPTGroup of answer choicesKeplerMarconiKayGalvani

In 1961, Time magazine selected as its Man of the Year not a specific person but “the American Scientist.” The choice was an indication of the widespread fascination with which Americans in the age of atomic power viewed science and technology. Identify which of the following statements correctly describe scientific and technological breakthroughs and/or describe their effects on American life. 1. DDT was an effective pesticide that was later found to be harmful to animals and humans. 2. The antibiotic penicillin and a vaccine for diabetes were developed in the 1940s and 1950s. 3. The transistor, developed in 1948, allowed for the miniaturization of devices such as radios, televisions, and hearing aids. 4. IBM developed the first UNIVAC computer, which predicted Eisenhower's 1952 election victory. 5. The Apollo program was created for the purpose of landing astronauts on the moon. 6. The plutonium bomb, with its fission process, gave significant impetus to the effort to develop unmanned rockets.
