...Paul Kenneth Hansma of Scottsdale, Ariz., "just seemed to drift into science," has built everything from a cloud chamber to a solar furnace to an electron accelerator. For a hobby he builds fountains, is now on his ninth. He studies with stereo earphones whispering light classical music to him. He will attend New College in Sarasota, Fla., move on to postgraduate research in physics. > Jacquelyn Faye Evans of Little Rock, Ark., made her achievements (straight A's) amid notably tense circumstances as one of the few Negro students to enter and stay at Little Rock's Hall High...
...cool spots in the corona, but they can only guess at the mechanism that makes these cool spots possible. Perhaps, they say, the corona is threaded with magnetic fields that churn it around, making it lumpy and unevenly heated. Whatever the final explanation, it may provide an insight into solar flares, the violent sun storms which generate radiation that can kill a man in space...
...York City's second World's Fair of the century opened with a splash. Water squirted, spurted, sprayed and gushed from the Fountain of the Planets and the Fountains of the Fairs, from the Astral, Solar and Lunar Fountains, the Fountain of the Continents and the Fountains of Progress; it rippled and trickled in numberless lakes, lagoons, canals and reflecting pools. And on opening day it dripped endlessly from the cold, grey clouds that dimmed the visibility of the helicopters and dampened the spirits of the groundlings...
...belonging to the Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratory that carried a telescope above nearly all of the earth's atmosphere. An automatic pointing device locked on the sun and used it as a reference point to focus the telescope on Venus. Then the telescope photographed the spectrum of solar infra-red light reflected from the top of the cloud deck...
...satellite, when it is finally launched, will contain several experiments from government agencies and universities, in addition to the Harvard instrument. All the projects are designed to reveal more about them and study those forms of solar radiation which affect the atmosphere and magnetic field of the earth...
