Introduction

Greetings. Dear friends, I treasure the honour of having you great steemians. As the day gets closer to the night I trust we all had a good day. I invite you to read along, as we do a little research on one of the safest means of transportation. We must have used one means of transportation today, either tricycle, bus, car, train, ship, or even airplane. Let us do a brief research on AIRPLANE. Four pertinent factors will guide us in this research. Let's start

• [1] Brief history about the invention - the inventor, in what year and place it was invented, any experiments in the process of invention
• [2] What was life like before the invention? How life changed as a result of the invention
• [3] Any changes, upgrades or modifications over the years to this invention?
• [4] Any negative effects of this invention to the environment or life as a whole.

Brief history about the invention - the inventor, in what year and place it was invented, any experiments in the process of invention

Like many other major inventions airplane is not isolated, as there are other individuals that must be credited with the invention of airplane. It all started with the Frenchman VICTOR TATIN in 1887. Then came the Brazilian inventior and sportsman and one of the very few people who contributed to developing airplane. ALBERTO SANTOS-DUMONT made his contributions while living in Paris France. He was also first to fly an airship by himself. Sadly ALBERTO SANTOS-DUMONT committed suicide in 1932. The originator EMMA LILIAN TODD from Washington DC, America. She was the first woman in the world to design airplane in 1906.Source
The WRIGHT BROTHERS were American aviation pioneers, accredited with building, inventing and flying the world first successful Motor-operated airplane, in 1903.

What was life like before the invention? How life changed as a result of the invention

Life before the invention of airplane was very difficult, the only means of transportation was by foot. Imagine walking from (example) Nigeria to Cameroon, later people started ridding Camel and horses. With the invention of airplane, people can now comfortably transverse lands in a short time and with loads, like crops and other items.

Any changes, upgrades or modifications over the years to this invention?

There has been lots of changes, and modifications of airplane. Over the years airplane has gone from single engine to two or more bigger and stronger engine. There are different types of airplane with different enginees, then their are military jets, passenger airplane, cargo airplane, that can carry heavy loads and fly over a long distance in a record time.

Any negative effects of this invention to the environment or life as a whole.

There are many negative effects of airplane to the environment and life. Let us consider three major negative effects from the many:

• Emission of green house gasses
• Noise pollution
• Global warming

The noise from these airplane turbo engine can be irritating to the ear. The carbon monoxide that is exhausted from the engine is a major source of global warming.

Conclusion

Next time you see a flying object in the sky, you will like to know what it is, they look so tiny that one begins to wonder if it's a bird or airplane.
Thank you so much for staying with me. I do hope you enjoyed this research, have a good night rest. I'll be glad to read your opinion in the comments section.
