March 26, 2026 - March 26, 2026

Rubiana

Thursday, March 26, at 5:45 PM in the "Dino Campana" library, "Officine del Sapere": Cruto, the man who wanted to illuminate the world.
We'll discuss the invention of the light bulb, learning about the Piossasco inventor and his "electric dream."

Technical Superiority: Cruto's light bulb, based on an innovative carbon filament, was highly efficient and lasted approximately 800 hours, significantly superior to Edison's early versions, which lasted just 50 hours.
The Alpignano Enterprise: Cruto established his laboratories and production in Alpignano, making the town a technological forefront of electric lighting in Italy.

Free admission and open to all.
