Bell Labs, later to be owned by Nokia, is founded in Murray Hill, New Jersey. Bell Labs will continue to create innovations both in communications and science as a whole. A few notable innovations is a practical solar cell and Telstar I which broadcasted the first live television. (1925)
Bell Labs team invents the transistor, which replaces the need for vacuum tubes and allows electronic devices to become even smaller than before. An extremely important innovation for the fact that without these transistors, things like the first iPhone would be just a bulky as other phones. (12/23/1947)
TAT-8, the 8th fiber-optic cable was laid by AT&T, British and French Télécom and connected the US, Britain and France. The technology was also developed by Bell Labs and was able to provide coverage to all three at once. (1988)
