Even the things we haven’t planned can be useful or lead to inventions we can’t imagine our lives without. For example, microwave ovens were invented by chance when scientist Percy Spencer was working with a radar machine. Today’s heroes don’t claim to have made a scientific breakthrough, but their findings are curious, nonetheless.
