Mosaic was released 1993 [1]. Mosaic was from NCSA and commercialized as Mosaic Netscape [2] by Mosaic managers and developers. Mozilla was the open sourcing of the Netscape code to provide a basis for Netscape browser to compete with Microsoft. Firefox was a branch off from Mozilla and after several name changes (Phoenix, Firebird) [3] became Firefox.
