...company's old equipment that had been dismantled and shipped out of the country. He built a modern rolling mill, increased the work force to 16,000, geared production up to 100,000 tons a month. Last year Tix developed a new vacuum process, which takes gaseous impurities out of cast steel, guaranteeing elimination of flaws, cutting production time in half. B.V. has licensed steel companies in France and Belgium, is now negotiating processing rights with companies in ten other countries, including...
...Kuiper thinks that Pluto is an escaped satellite that once revolved around Neptune. The other satellites of Neptune, Triton and Nereid, may have escaped too, but eventually were recaptured. They tangled with the gaseous envelope that still surrounded the mother planet and were reduced again to the satellite status. Pluto, however, managed to keep its freedom until the sun had dissipated most of Neptune's gaseous envelope. Now it is probably safe for the life of the solar system...
Solar Clouds. What had changed since 1951? For one thing, Professor Neher pointed out, the sun had decreased its "activity," shooting out less gaseous matter than it did a few years before. He believes that this thin stuff, mostly hydrogen, drifts in enormous, tenuous clouds through the solar system. Each cloud carries its own magnetic field, and when the clouds are numerous, they fill the solar system with magnetic obstacles in the path of the cosmic rays. The weak ones cannot make the grade. They curve off into space and never reach the inner region where the earth revolves...
...University group hopes to determine whether the light of the sun's inner corona, a glowing gaseous envelope surrounding the sun, is white or slightly colored. "Previous observations have shown no trace of color, but they have at best been only accurate to within 10 percent," said Sinton. "We hope, with luck, to reduce the margin of error to one percent," he added...
...doubt, Mrs. Knight must belong to the school that believes our ancestors were apes (if Christ is a legend, what else can you believe?), that our world came into being from revolving gaseous matter. Now if she could explain who put the swirling gas into existence, I might discover a grain of truth in her fantastic statements...
