	To quote National Geographic, "Ørsted's fingerprints are on everything from medical scanners to your car's engine to theoretical invisibility devices". For my major in particular, biomedical engineering, Ørsted's work comes into play with MRI's (Magnetic Resonance Imaging machines), which use a high magnetic field caused by electric currents induced in a wire. Any product in any industry that uses magnetic fields - hydroelectric dams and other electrical generators, for example - can attribute its success to Ørsted's discovery.

	Ørsted's discovery is indisputably foundational to the field of electromagnetism that so many other famous scientists have based their research on. The connection between electricity and magnetism has explained many phenomenon and expand into many industrial purposes. Furthermore, Ørsted in himself is extremely inspiring, branching out into not only physics and chemistry but also literature as well. I personally found it very intriguing that so much of his thinking is influenced by philosophy, notably Kant, and that he tied it together with physics to produce his dissertation.

	Ørsted was teaching a lecture one evening in 1820 and noticed that turning an electric current on and off caused the needle of a compass sitting nearby to deflect. After extensive researching, he found that the magnetic needle aligns itself perpendicularly to a current in a wire, and that the magnetic field induced was overall circular in relation to the wire. This finding was later coupled with work done by [[André-Marie Ampère]], who added the factor of time to create part of what is now Maxwell's equations; Ørsted's law in itself considers current to be constant over time.
