X-rays were discovered when physicist Wilhelm Roentgen noticed a nearby fluorescent screen glowing while he was experimenting with a covered cathode ray tube. Wilhelm Röntgen dubbed his accidental discovery "X-rays," with the "X" representing their unknown nature. The powerful rays emanated from a Crookes tube, an experimental cathode ray device, and had the ability to pass through opaque objects like the thick cardboard he'd used to cover his apparatus.
