Discussion Board
Explanation
Samuel Morse was a famous portrait painter and the first president of the National Academy of Design. While he was on a ship ride from Europe, Morse heard a conversation between few people regarding the electromagnetism. From the conversation, he adopted the idea of inventing an electric telegraph for long distance communication. In May, 1844, he sent a message from Washington to Baltimore with the help of the first inter-city electromagnetic telegraph line in the world. The first message generated was “What Hath God Wrought”.
