Nearly all saw vivid colors. One looked through the window and "saw" a nonexistent work gang on a nonexistent orange bridge. He watched the scene change to a phantom blue lake complete with a phantom ship. Another happily described the chalets in a Swiss village. All these patients enjoyed describing their LSD-distorted visions and did not complain of discomfort even when they reported feelings of being dismembered.

When Sun removed the liquid nitrogen and rapidly heated the samples, however, they began to give off vivid and pulsating light. The Westinghouse physicist is now working on further laboratory tests to support his theory. He believes that it can also be confirmed by careful telescopic analysis of light emanating from the vicinity of the lunar terminator. If, as he suggests, that band of moonlight is noticeably brighter...
