Guglielmo Marconi, born on April 25, 1874, was the pioneering Italian inventor who proved the feasibility of radio communication. His groundbreaking work began in 1895 when he sent and received his first radio signal in Italy. By 1899, Marconi succeeded in flashing the first wireless signal across the English Channel, and in 1902, he achieved the first successful transatlantic radiotelegraph message. From its humble beginnings as a spark transmitter, radio has evolved with significant advancements, including satellite communication, making it an essential tool for millions today.
