The telephone is very amazing. When you speak into it, the telephone changes your voice into an electrical signal so it can travel through the phone lines and underground phone cables. The electrical signal is then turned back into your voice at the phone of the person you are talking too. If you are talking to someone who is a long distance away, like a country on the other side of the world, your voice travels as an electronic signal through undersea cables and is bounced off satellites in space like bouncing a basketball against the ground!
