The other woman (Lolita Davidovich) is said to be a witty journalist, but looks as if she might need help booting up her word processor...
...above their tracks. To do the job, however, these superconductors must be kept at very low temperatures (around 4 degreesK) through the use of liquid helium, an expensive and hard-to-handle coolant. The goal of current research is to produce superconductors that can perform their magic at less frigid temperatures that are easier to reach and maintain. What's exciting about the latest mercury compounds, Chu points out, is that they can theoretically do their thing with the help of ordinary coolants like Freon, which circulates in household refrigerators...

After developing the film in the observatory darkroom, he turns the negatives over to Carolyn, who scans each set of two under her stereo microscope. If anything has moved against the background of fixed stars during the 40-min. interval, it appears to float in the eyepiece. If so, it is an asteroid or comet and might someday present a threat...
