Inventor of the television. Vladimir Zworykin copied his idea for RCA. He helped RCA keep all possible profits out of Farnsworth's hands. At age 14, young Philo had his working idea all set. He was a farmboy genius, and it was cornfields with different-colored corn that inspired him to use pixels the way he did. At 21, Farnsworth had his first working model of a television. Farnsworth also designed the Farnsworth-Hirsch Fusor, which was the first fusor to demonstrate actual nuclear fusion.
Philo T. Farnsworth invented the television designed the first working Fusor, but he is not famous. His wife, Elma, always fought for his place in history. She died in 2006.

Get the Professor Hubert J. Farnsworthmug. You try to get along with everyone but people aren’t in anyway positive they negative as fuck and they will give you depression and if you get bullied by a Farnsworth 7th Grader and you tell them that they are bullying you they will just say “I was just kidding” or “it was just a joke calm down” and y’all have heard of whitewash right? Well at Farnsworth we ain’t got no whitewash kids we got blackwash kids instead. So for you parents out there your 7th grade Farnsworth student is either blackwash , “the smart kid” who is actually smart but try’s to act ghetto and seems really fake and you wanna punch her/him in the face, the bully that don’t know they a bully, or the kid who thinks they are from the hood, the short kid who swears he a gangster or the person who gets depressed because of their school. so do a favor and transfer them please thank you and that is all, (this is literally Farnsworth Students including boys and girls)
Each of those ghetto kids must be a (7th grader at Farnsworth Aerospace)
