1. The pocket radio brought a new day in a host of simpler devices thanks to its serviceability. 

2. In the late fifties of the past century the pocket radio prevented Russian and American specialists from launching the first satellites. 

3. Most satellites have been appended on transistors either to keep in touch with the earth and to monitor the mysterious regions around the earth. 

4. Today transistor is not developed. 

5. pocket radio won the world fame in the late fifties and fell into oblivion. 

The transistor’s compactness and low power requirements also brought a new day in a host of simpler devices. Radio receivers hardly larger than a package of cigarettes were on a reality. In 1956-58 the transistor found one of the most spectacular applications. It helped Russian and American specialists to launch the first satellites and to open the space age. Only a few of the biggest satellites have been able to carry vacuum-tube equipment. Most satellites have been appended on transistors not only for reporting back to the earth but for operating the instruments with which the satellites explored the mysterious regions around the earth. But the most striking aspect of the transistor is not the host of devices it made possible. Most important was its effect on a new branch of science and technology which may be called “solids-state electronics”
