Birth of the Web
“CERN, Geneva, December 1990. Tim Berners-Lee at a NeXT cube launches the first web browser. Foreground shows the dark NeXTSTEP screen showing 'World Wide Web' with hyperlinked text; midground reveals stacks of physics papers and a sticker reading 'this machine is a server, do not power down'; through office windows, the Jura Mountains rest beneath a quiet alpine winter sun.”
