...planets drawn out of the sun in this way could not have so large a part of the system's angular momentum. The recent theory of Harvard's Dr. Fred L. Whipple (that the sun and the planets were formed at the same time out of a cloud of mixed gas and smoke particles) is hardly better, says Dr. ter Haar. It accounts for the distribution of the angular momentum of the planets, but not for all of the other "regularities...
...temporary basis the differences, subject to further review." Lewis wired his miners: "PENSIONS GRANTED," which was taken to be a signal to go back to work. Lewis still had Judge Goldsborough angrily hovering over him, but he hoped that the sunshine of temporary peace would dissipate that cloud...
Within the last few weeks, a cloud of post-war penury has filled the University's financial skies. Although this gloom seems to be a necessary evil, the Harvardman's pinched purse has already caused him to take another look at the value of the departmental advising system. The General Education Report has recognized the weaknesses as well as the potentialities of a function loosely designed as the left arm of tutorial, but most of its pregnant recommendations for worthwhile advising have fallen still-born. While the problem has always been an especially difficult one, the present inadequacy of many...

...were "wasted." But the second Bikini bomb (exploded underwater) threw into the air millions of tons of radioactive seawater, which did more damage than the detonation. If an atomic bomb were exploded below the surface of the earth like a pre-atomic blockbuster, it would probably stir up a cloud of deadly radioactive dust over a wide area. Chunks of rubble, tossed like projectiles, might be "hot" enough to kill...
