## Emergence
**Emerges from:** [happen](https://emergencemachine.com/tools/lexicon/what-is-the-meaning-of-happen.event-occurrence), [persist](https://emergencemachine.com/tools/lexicon/what-is-the-meaning-of-persist.continue), [come](https://emergencemachine.com/tools/lexicon/what-is-the-meaning-of-come.arrive), [setting](https://emergencemachine.com/tools/lexicon/what-is-the-meaning-of-setting.contextual), [time](https://emergencemachine.com/tools/lexicon/what-is-the-meaning-of-time.dimension)

**Through:** An event occurs in a setting where a thing arrives and is present but did not persist from before, making its presence recent.

**Novel properties:**
- recent presence
- non-persistence from prior state
- entry into context

## Examples
- The first operational version of the Internet, ARPANET, connected four university nodes in 1969. *(computing)*
- In 2011, the Arab Spring uprisings began in Tunisia and spread across several countries. *(institutions)*
- The Higgs boson was observed at CERN's Large Hadron Collider in 2012 after decades of search. *(physics)*
