The first article from Aaj TV Latest highlights the serendipitous invention of the 'Super Soaker' water gun by Dr. Lonnie Johnson, a former NASA engineer. Born in 1949 in a segregated area of Alabama, Johnson overcame racial discrimination to pursue a career in science, earning degrees in mechanical and nuclear engineering from Tuskegee University. His work at NASA included contributions to stealth bomber aircraft and deep space probes, which were pivotal in advancing U.S. space and defense technology. The invention of the Super Soaker was accidental, occurring in the 1980s when Johnson was working on a heat pump at home. A burst of water from a pipe unexpectedly soaked his daughter, leading to the creation of one of the most popular toys in history, now part of a billion-dollar industry. The article from Aaj TV Latest describes this invention as a 'small mistake on an ordinary day' that brought joy to children worldwide.
