He came up with a hand-operated valves pump which raised the water from the mines by suction. A few years later, in 1712, Thomas Newcomen, another Englishman inventor, invented a more efficient steam engine which separated the water from the condensing steam. A little over 50 years after Newcomen’s steam engine was invented, James Watt, a Scottish inventor, chemist, and mechanical engineer, significantly improved Newcomen’s steam engine. Watt added a separate condenser so they didn’t have to heat and cool the cylinder with every stroke. After the invention of the practical steam engine, employment changed dramatically all around the world, eventually. England also had a lot of coal that could fuel steam engines which resulted in the creation of factories. Ships and trains were even powered by steam, which helped transport goods and people from place to
