Google Doodle Celebrates Robert Bunsen's 200th Birthday

Okay, so based on the doodle, Robert Bunsen was the inventor of bunsen  burner, right? Not Really. From what I've read, he's just a co-creator of the bunsen burner, and we're (actually) celebrating his 200th birthday. What I like about Google, aside from the fact that I really like this search engine personally because of their doodles (LOL) and I'm comfortable in using it, was that they use their homepage as an enticement to the researchers/users. They feature important inventions and people who are tragically forgotten.

Here are some more of their doodles.
