When in normal operation, it was kept in uneasy check by elaborate control systems and cooled by liquid hydrogen with a temperature close to absolute zero. Last week it was given no cooling at all, and the controls that kept its reaction in check were arranged so they could be removed in a fraction of a second. Test Director Keith Boyer hoped that Kiwi...
