1) Science is rich in stories of "serendipity" - a discovery made by lucky chance,
While working for the *1 Raytheon company, 2) Percy Spencer noticed that *2 microwaves
from the *3 radar set he was working on had melted the *candy bar in his pocket. He
wasn't the first person to notice that microwaves generate heat, but he was the first
person to think of using this heat to cook food. Raytheon then developed 3) Spencer's 5
idea for commercial and industrial use.
