"On 3 September 1821, Faraday observed the circular rotation of a wire as it was attracted and repelled by magnetic poles. In 1820, the Danish physicist Hans Christian Ørsted had noticed the peculiar behavior of a compass near a charged wire. Building on that work, Faraday, and many others, would turn electricity from a parlor trick to a core mechanism of our everyday world."
