...their 1960 Joint Awards in medical research. The recipients (who each received $2,500 and a Winged Victory statuette) included two scientists who are not medical researchers at all: German Engineer Ernst Ruska and U.S. Research Physicist James Hillier, who together are largely responsible for development of the electron microscope. Up to 500 times as powerful as the best optical microscope, the electron microscope has already given man his first look at viruses and promises to become one of medicine's most useful tools. Says Physicist Hillier, 45: "The electron microscope is like the monkey wrench on the garage...
...hunt ed for cosmic rays above this critical limit. The original energy of a cosmic ray can be measured by counting the second-ary particles that it showers down on the earth after colliding with air molecules in the high atmosphere. If its energy is 1016 (io million billion) electron volts, it generates millions of particles, mostly electrons and mesons which spread over many acres of ground. More powerful rays give even bigger showers...
...shower caught by Record No. 026508 went back to the Kirtland computer for a special full-dress analysis. Next day Dr. Linsley got the exciting news. The shower peppered the ground with io billion particles, and when it hit the atmosphere, it carried 20 to 40 billion billion electron volts. This made it by far the most powerful ray ever detected. Its energy, far above the critical limit, proved that it must have come from outside the Milky Way galaxy. Very likely it had been traveling for billions of years, pushed by unknown forces from an unknown source...
