Many had short lives, passing by Earth but for a few brief moments, much like a celestial body would streak through the Firmament, though leaving profound and permanent landmarks for the future generations . Those landmarks were creations in the search for a better tomorrow. Well, we in Brazil spent our time in school being told that Guglielmo Marconi was the inventor of radio. The great challenge was to transmit an audio signal without the aid of wires. Several scientists were trying to accomplish this, but Father Landell was the first to succeed.
Many great scientists are superlative in the applications of theory.
Father Landell integrated theoretical and practical qualities at the same time. He was the scientist, an engineer and a worker. One year after the above experiment in public, he receives his first patent from the Brazilian government. It is dated March 09, 1901. With scarce resources, he had to rely on friends such as Daniel Tamagno to push ahead his project.
