Overview

The cartoon, which shows a concise chronology of the latest achievements of modern humanity, pays tribute to the inventor and dreamer named Heron, who lived in Alexandria in the 1st century A.D., who was undeservedly forgotten. Back then, he created the first prototype of a steam turbine that could significantly make human life easier and become the basis for a technological revolution. Nevertheless, despite all the simplicity and genius, the invention could not find application in his era and began to wait in the wings for almost 2 thousand years.
