How the First Web Browser Was Born at CERN

In this episode, Lucas and Luna dive into the creation of the first web browser, WorldWideWeb, by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN in 1990. They explore how a NeXT computer and a simple interface changed everything, the challenges of early networking, and why Berners-Lee chose not to patent his invention. Specific details include the original browser's features—like built-in editing and a list of bookmarks—and the surprising fact that it ran on a single machine for months before anyone else used it. Lucas explains the technical and cultural environment at CERN that made the breakthrough possible, while Luna asks sharp questions about what came before Mosaic and Netscape. The episode reveals how a tool designed for physicists accidentally created the modern internet.
