Jagadish Bose - A Lifestory

Born in 1858, this person was more than just a scientist. He was a thinker who tried to connect what we can see with what we can't. He was a great person from Bengal who knew a lot about biology, physics, and even wrote early science fiction. His amazing work still makes people wonder. Think about someone who could imagine strange worlds like those in the movie "Arrival," but who also stuck to real science. His work wasn't just in labs. He also invented things. Before Marconi, he showed how to send messages without wires. This would later change the world, affecting everything from "The Social Network" to how we help people in emergencies today. But his research on how plants work is what made him really special. Using his own invention, called the crescograph, he showed that plants react to things like animals do. They get tired and even feel pain. At first, people didn't believe him, but this changed how we understand living things. Think about how this would affect the characters in "Avatar," who are very connected to the plants of Pandora, if they knew plants could feel pain! Important people at the time saw how great his work was. His friends praised how clever and dedicated he was. He might not have been in a movie like "Oppenheimer," but his effect on science is clear. He left a mark that still matters today, changing how we see life itself. His contributions continue to be recognized as of 29 April 2024.
