This drive produced the molecule, the cell, organic life, up through the ooze...
...soon in convulsions and a raging fever, and threatened with death from brain damage. Rushed to Bellevue Hospital, he was stretched out beside the artificial kidney, which was primed with two pints of blood containing heparin to prevent clotting. Attending doctors from Cornell University put a cannula into the radial artery in the patient's wrist, connected this by polyethylene tubes with the core of the artificial kidney.

...more subtle and complex model makes is possible for the student to compare his answers with the printed correct response which the machine shows to him.

The circular tunnel which encloses it will have a powerhouse in the middle to supply the energy for the magnets. The accelerator tunnel and the powerhouse will be connected by four radial tunnels...
