Timoney not only fragments

Volta’s theory was correct. Volta‚ essentially

    Methane was first discovered in 1776 by Alessandro Volta (1745-1827).

He then collected some of the gas from the gas bubbles and discovered that it burned relatively easily. He first named the gas “inflammable air from marshlands”‚ which we now know as Methane. Besides discovering Methane‚ Volta is also known for the invention of batteries. How
