Meet Dr. Percy LeBaron Spencer. He was born on July 9, 1894 in Howland, Maine. He died on September 8 in 1970. He lived in Howland, Maine. He worked for the Raytheon Corporation.
Do you want to know how the microwave oven was invented? Dr. Spencer was experimenting with microwaves, and happened to have a chocolate bar in his pocket. He was feeling a bit hungry, so he reached into his pocket to eat it. To his surprise, it was melted! He soon figured out that the microwaves had caused that to happen. Pretty cool, huh?
