...connected with the Cambridge Electron Accelerator which Mr. Glassman uses to illustrate some of his points. But we know enough about it to be certain that neither the physicists who proposed this project, nor the members of the Atomic Energy Commission who approved it, ever believed that it might contribute, even slightly, to weapon development. Furthermore, extraordinary care has been exercised to assure that expensive new scientific projects like the Accelerator do not commit the university to permanent investment. When they have outlived their usefulness these facilities will be eliminated far more easily than smaller ones contributed by private donors...
...article by James K. Glassman in the May 7th Crimson Supplement on the Future of the University, the Cambridge Electron Accelerator (CEA) is discussed as an example of Federal money being spent at Harvard. Indeed, because of its $4,500,000 budget in Fy 1969 which comes entirely from the Federal Government, Mr. Glassman has chosen a very good example...
...position to support this work. The wisdom of the American taxpayer and of his representatives in Congress are responsible for the great opportunity provided Harvard and its sister institutions in the Cambridge area. It is the University which gains most directly. Karl Strauch Professor of Physics Director, Cambridge Electron Accelerator
...serve as bungalow-size space stations for three-man crews. The first will include a doctor, who will study the effects on himself and his companions of 28 days under zero gravity. The crew will also try to learn how vacuum and weightlessness affect certain manufacturing processes. These include electron beam welding and the use of molten substances to fabricate extra-strong materials and perfectly round ball bearings. The astronauts' 10,000-cu.-ft. living space will feature a wardroom for relaxation, a microwave oven, a "sponge shower" with a vacuum cleaner to get rid of wastes, and even...
...steam-powered bus and police car. Lear also plans to enter a steamer in the Indianapolis 500, perhaps next year, to help get his message across to Detroit. In fact, there are signs that Detroit has got the message already. Ford has signed an agreement with Massachusetts' Thermo Electron Corp. for joint development of a small steam engine, and General Motors has contracted with Oakland's Besler Developments, Inc. to install a steam motor in a Chevrolet for testing...
