Guglielmo Marconi (1874–1937) invented the wireless telegraph, based on the discovery (1887) of radio waves by Heinrich Hertz (1857–94) (existence of these waves had been deduced by James Clerk Maxwell in 1873).

Heinrich Hertz (1857–94) demonstrated the existence of electromagnetic waves in the space about a discharging Leyden jar, and found that electromagnetic waves were propagated with the velocity of light as Maxwell had predicted (1873).
