Who Invented the Light Bulb?   
​Chris Hunter, the Vice President of Collections and Exhibits, from the miSci Museum in Schenectady will touch on areas of The Last Days of Night and the big question, “Who invented the light bulb”?  Was it Thomas Edison or George Westinghouse?  Whose current will be used to power electricity?  He will also talk about General Electric’s archives that are housed at the museum and the ongoing displays. 

Come and hear this interesting presentation that has local ties.
