...Hugo Eckener, two hangars were thrown together. Replete with comforts for 52 passengers, the LZ-129 will next year go into regular service on the South American run. Unlike the Graf Zeppelin she will be inflated with non-inflammable helium. But because helium is much more expensive than hydrogen, Dr. Eckener plans to install fireproof hydrogen ballonets inside the helium cells for use in regulating altitude. Like the Akron and the Macon, the LZ-129 (which Dr. Eckener wants to name Hindenburg) is designed and equipped throughout so that hydrogen can be used in a pinch, should helium...
...this is satisfactory in tractors and special automobile engines in warm climates in summer," observed Robert Thompson Haslam, vice president of Standard Oil Development Co. He foresees industrial alcohol made from waste refinery gases. One of the largest current uses for these gases is in the manufacture of hydrogen. Cottonseed Gasoline. Cottonseed makes good hog and cow food and palatable cooking oil. If the oil is fed into a metal coil at 900° F. and 150 Ib. per sq. in. pressure, it breaks down into gasoline. Cottonseed
Irving Langmuir, 51, General Electric associate director of research, Popular Science Monthly's, $10,000 prize; in general for his many researches on fundamental physical and chemical subjects, in particular for his inventions of hydrogen arc welding and the gas-filled incandescent lamp which saves the U. S., it is estimated, $1,000,000 per night on its $1,000,000,000 per year electric light bill...
Attaching weights to the animal increases the pull, while attaching a hydrogen-filled balloon decreases the gravitational effect. The results of the experiment enable the investigator to glean some information of the different nervous mechanisms that enable the animal to discriminate the changes that are exerted upon it by the changing gravitational forces...
That is the neutron. It lacks electrical characteristics. The charges of proton and electron have bound and balanced each other. A particle has been formed halfway between nascent electricity and atomic hydrogen. It hops out of radioactive substances as do alpha particles...
