traduz o texto THE BIRTH OF THE INTERNET: A HISTORICAL FEAT
In 1969 the world had its eyes turned to what was undoubtedly to become a historical feat: the
first human being setting foot on the moon. However, in that same year something else of much
importance was happening as well: the Internet was coming into being.
Usually when we think of a historical feat, we think of something big, like the first voyage to the
moon. But more often than not, we find that the most meaningful events in history spring from
what is viewed in their time as an unimportant fact. A case in point is exactly what the figure
above represents: the birth of the Internet.
It is difficult to pinpoint the exact moment when the Internet was born. The World Wide Web is
indeed the result of a number of interrelated events that can be traced back to the first artificial
satellite -the Russian (then Soviet) Sputnik - being put into orbit around the earth back in the
1950's. But it was in 1969 that "... four host computers were connected together into the initial
ARPANET, and the budding Internet was off the ground". The diagram above shows the first four
places ever linked via the Internet which was then called the ARPANET. They are US
organizations: the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), Stanford Research Institute
(SRI), the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB) and the University of Utah (UTAH).
Little by little the Internet started spreading everywhere because of new technological
advancements and today it is so important that our lives would not be the same without it. Of
course going to the moon was an extremely important event as well, a real historical feat, but the
birth of the Internet has proved to be the most significant historical fact, and feat, in the recent
past of the history of mankind.​

a importância também estava acontecendo: a Internet estava surgindo.

Normalmente, quando pensamos em um feito histórico, pensamos em algo grande, como a primeira viagem ao

lua. Mas, mais frequentemente, descobrimos que os eventos mais significativos da história surgem de
