# Stephen Gray

> Stephen Gray was an English dyer and astronomer who was the first to systematically experiment with electrical conduction. Until his work in 1729 the emphasis had been on the simple generation of static charges and investigations of the static phenomena. Gray showed that electricity can be conducted through metals and that it appeared on the surfaces of insulators.

*British chemist, physicist, astronomer*
