That’s a tricky question, since it’s difficult to say exactly what language was first used to create a computer program.  Rather, “Java” is the name of a particular programming language.  This has been the most popular language for the creation of programs that run on the “Internet” (an online network of computers), and it started as an extension of “C” programming language.

I just found this information from Britannica:  "Java was created at Sun Microsystems, Inc., where James Gosling led a team of researchers in an effort to create a new language that would allow consumer electronic devices to communicate with each other."

Sounds right.  I did a search and found this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_(programming_language)

Sun Microsystems, Inc. was acquired by Oracle.

Sure, I think Oracle has bought a lot of companies, even acquired open source projects.  I bet Oracle is the “current” owner of Java.
assistant
Yes, I found out that Oracle is the current owner of Java.
