1. The innovation topic that I am working on is called the Printing Press.
2. The Printing Press was developed in 1439.
3. A man named Johannes Gutenburg invented the printing press. He made it with replacable and movable letters. (which were made of wood and/or metal)
4. The machine had a numourous amount of letters, that where moved around to make messages. They was also, color added to the letters so that the letters would not be plain. The machine it self, was a square shape that had slots for the letters so that they can be printed. It replaced, having to hear about the news. When this happened the news was delivered to people all over.
5. The benefits that the printing press has provided a lot of resources for people. People where able to obtain letters and papers faster than ever before.
Other information: Johannes Gutenburg was born around the 1400's-1468. Gutenburg was a german printer and pioneer who was the first European to print an object through his printing press.
