Fiber optics is a method that sends information coded in a beam of light down a glass or plastic pipe. It was first developed for

endoscopes in the 1950s to help doctors, see inside the human body without having to cut it open first. A fiber-optic cable is made up
of incredibly thin strands of glass or plastic known as optical fibers. Each strand is less than a tenth as thick as a human hair, so an
entire fiber-optic cable can easily carry several million calls.
