...logged in space, 222 hours. In the lunar program, NASA preferred more by-the-book pilots, and Cooper never got a trip to the moon - a loss more to NASA, many space historians believe, than to Cooper. DIED. MAURICE WILKINS, 88, British Nobel laureate who helped discover the double helix structure of DNA; in London. After a stint on the Manhattan Project during World War II, he turned his attention from physics to biology. With his colleague Rosalind Franklin at King's College in London, he came up with a clear X-ray image of DNA. Within weeks of receiving...
DIED. FRANCIS CRICK, 88, Nobel-prizewinning British scientist who, with American James Watson, discovered the spiral double-helix structure of DNA in 1953; in San Diego. (See item below...
...have to swap that bucket of popcorn for a console and controller. The Wachowski brothers, raised on video games, always intended it that way--and created an intricate plot for a game called Enter the Matrix that wraps around the second movie like one strand of a DNA double helix around another...
James Watson and Francis Crick worked out the structure of the DNA double-helix at Cambridge University, announcing their much-celebrated discovery in a modest one-page letter to the journal Nature that was published 50 years ago today...
It’s the network, not the double helix, that is attracting the attention of more and more scientists. Fifty years after the structure of DNA invigorated the molecular biology revolution, a new more integrated approach to understand cells is gaining prominence...
