he made it at some point as it is in the "bird-bot of ice-katraz" and he uses it to activate the hole-map-screen-thing.

it does exist, but not in the first AOI

Are you all mad?  The obvious answer is the glow in the dark nose that you can put over your own nose.  As Bender pointed out, it allows him to punch you in the nose even if he can't see you.

Think of the implications - a cure to all diseases, an end to poverty, more than enough food for every man, woman and child.

OK - so there's that teeny tiny toxic waste problem associated with it.  What's an extra arm or a few scales if the trade off is a nose that glows in the dark?

My God what a glorius time it would be to be alive - or in Bender's case, operational - and see such an invention actually come to fruition!

Erm...you're wrong, and (edit) comiccollector5 is right - he did invent the ship...

To quote from the pilot:

Fry: Whoa! A real live spaceship!

Farnsworth: I designed it myself. Let me show you some of the different lengths of wire I used.

If "designing" a ship isn't "inventing" it...

I like all the doomsday devices. He should use them more often. I'm sure he could become supreme president of earth if he wanted to.

He couldn't have invented the fing-longer. If he did, everybody will know about Leela's impulsive tendencies (and what she'd do to Fry) and Fry's importance to the stability of the space-time continuum. That would make Fry in "The Why Of Fry" seem pretty stupid, sorry, stupider.

More likely somebody else invented the finglonger, and it was a smashing succes. Farnsworth then axe his What If machine what would've happened if he had invented it.

Anyway, the PE ship is easily his best invention.

His best crazy invention is the glowing nose machine. "It can do other things, why shouldn't it!?"

Why? Just because the Professor has seen this, must not mean that everyone would know what happened in the simulations the "What if"- machine had created.

But if he had invented the finglonger, the story Farnsworth saw in the What If machine would've played out. He would've summoned them to his laboratory to show them the finglonger, they would ask about the What If machine, etc.

AOI is basically what would've happened if Farnsworth had been the inventor of the finglonger.

The Engines totally.

And he designed the ship, he didn't invent the spaceship. It's not like you can invent something that has already been invented. Altough i will say that it's a nicely designed ship.

Problem with that is, since he's asked the What If machine about what would happen, his fore-knowledge of what would happen means that it can no longer happen in that precise way.  Besides, it could have happened between episodes.  ;)

SO I say Finglonger.

The ship's great.  But I maintain that the atomic monsters in "Time Keeps On Slippin'" are fantastic!

He won't have invented the finglonger. I totally agree with Teral there. If he had it would have been a good invention. Secondly he won't have invented spaceships in general but it's clear that he invented most things on the Planet Express Ship (The Engines, The Newspaper Cannon etc). Therefore I say that his best invention is that imitator.

I made this topic ages ago, but as this current thread is more about Farnsie's inventions, it's okay.

A cycle of sorts, lots of newbies starting threads that get instantly closed, clogs up general discussion and thus doesn't allow for easy access to existing threads on the same topic. Mods close new thread. Old thread drops off of radar. Repeat to PEEL crash.

Not criticising mods of course, it's the newbies' fault.
