...lier suggestion that soft X rays would be given off by hot, thinly dispersed hydrogen gas, the NRL scientists turned to their computers. To produce the detected radiation, they calculated, the temperature of the gas would have to be 1,400,000° F. and its density only one atom of hydrogen in every 3.5 cu. ft. of space. But even at this low density, says Astrophysicist Henry, the hydrogen gas would constitute 100 times as much matter as there is in all of the galaxies combined and thus solve the mystery of the universe's missing mass...
Died. Charles C. Lauritsen, 76, nuclear physicist who built one of the earliest atom smashers and was part of the team that developed the atomic bomb; after a long illness; in Pasadena, Calif. Working at the California Institute of Technology in 1934, Lauritsen, with his atom smasher, became the first to produce neutrons with artificially accelerated particles...
...blamed the industry primarily, but thought the government could do more. "The FCC should be taken out and machine-gunned," he said half facetiously at one point. Rich cited particularly the violent Saturday-morning cartoon shows, which he said are "almost as dreadful for kids as the atom bomb." He then admitted that his own agency's clients sponsored two of them, and concluded: "It's a pretty disgraceful thing...
Endless Supply. Testing the substance, the NASA scientists discovered that it was either a porphyrin, a ring molecule or a closely related chemical structure. Significantly, the porphyrin ring molecule with a magnesium atom in the center is chlorophyll...
...Berenger -lonesco's Everyman, who was the clerk in Rhinoceros, the clown in The Airborne Pedestrian. With typical lonesco chronology, King Berenger is about 400 years old, but his reign seems to span thousands of years. He is credited with inventing the wheelbarrow, designing the airplane, splitting the atom, and writing Shakespeare's plays. Once decked in splendor, his throne room is now crumbling in decay. Once rich and powerful, his kingdom is now poor, famished and depopulated. His erstwhile magnificent army has dwindled to a single guard, and life-the ultimate deserter-is about to flee...
