The first bubble chamber, invented in 1953 by Dr. Donald Glaser of the University of Michigan, was a glass tube filled with ether at a temperature that would make it start to boil when pressure was suddenly reduced. If high-energy particles (e.g., protons from a cyclotron) are shot into the ether at the right moment, lines of bubbles form on their trails, thus showing where the particles go and how they interact with atoms in the ether. When Inventor Glaser delivered his classic paper at a Washington physics convention. Physicist Luis Alvarez, associate director of the Radiation...

And a man in an airtight capsule would cook himself in seven minutes. Last week Project Mercury researchers reported they had found a solution to the problem.
