The Rubik's Cube was invented in 1974 by Erno Rubik, a Hungarian architecture professor. Rubik later used the Cube as a learning exercise to teach his students about 3 dimensional spaces. Little did he know his "Magic Cube" as he originally named it, would become one of the world's most famous puzzles of all time.
By the 1980's the Rubik's Cube was a worldwide craze selling millions of Cubes every year and cementing its legacy into pop culture. Featured in The Simpsons, The Big Bang Theory, a Spice Girls music video and major Hollywood movies, the Rubik's Cube continues to grow around the world.
