The development of television has far ranging uses beyond home entertainment as it allows monitoring and thus controlling of commercial and industrial functions far from the viewer, including magnifying the images.

The development of the transistor allows for many of these technologies to function. Many of these future technologies will be conveniences for everyday life.

For atomic power can also (and should only) be beneficial for mankind. In 1952, it is already effective in various fields, such as industry, agriculture and medicine. Let the atom be a blessing instead of a curse.
