Ungrare som var med och utvecklade atombomben

The aim of his experiments was develop the device attached to a rope that was released into an aircraft that could fly freely through the air. Over the two years of experimentation the two large wooden propellers positioned one above the other and rotating in opposite directions managed to raise Absóth´s device into the air together with its pilot more than 200 times. Absóth´s device also managed to hover in the air for almost one hour, which was a great achievement, but because of their rigid propellers Absóth´s "helicopters" became unstable when moving forward or when subjected to a strong side wind. Thanks to his ability with the pen and knowledge of foreign languages and guided by his business sense Absóth ensured that news of his experiments travelled round the world and the great newspapers of the world described at length what were considered to the first successful flights that the world had ever seen.Thanks to his shrewd business sense Absóth was able to profit from his inventions.
