⁣A light bulb has been burning for over 120 years at Fire Station #6 in Livermore, California.

In 1924, Philips, Osram, General Electric and other giants formed a secret cartel called Phoebus to deliberately shorten the lifespan of light bulbs. They agreed that no bulb should last longer than 1,000 hours — otherwise profits would drop.

The Livermore lamp outlived this conspiracy — it was manufactured before the scheme even began.
