It was a simple goal for James Watt, Professor of mathematics at the University of Glasgow, make a machine that could be cheap, and convenient power making device. Working off of earlier and highly inefficient designs, Watt created a more efficient device that used less fuel and produced more power.
With the 'creation' of this machine a new era of machines would rise. They could not only be used for power in factories, but also on steam boats, locomotives, and eventually automobiles. This would help propel the world into an era with faster transports under the control of men, unlike sailing.
