Discovering Antimatter¹
On August 2, 1932, Carl David Anderson² discovered the positron³ particle (e⁺), the first evidence of antimatter, when he allowed cosmic rays⁴ to pass through a cloud chamber⁵ and a 6 mm lead plate. A magnet surrounded this apparatus, causing particles to bend in different directions based on their electric charge. The ion trail left by each positron appeared on the photographic plate with a curvature matching the mass-to-charge ratio of an electron, but in a direction that showed its charge was positive. For this work he won the Nobel Prize in physics in 1936, he was the youngest American to win the Nobel prize and it was a discovery that permanently reshaped our view of the universe. The apparatus was located on the third floor of the Guggenheim Aeronautical Laboratory⁶ at the California Institute of Technology (GALCIT).

And much taller than I'd ever imagined. Those wheels are in excess of 6' in diameter.

Interesting, but it makes sense. When you've got a wooden cart with little to no suspension or give, used to carry tons of rock, you probably don't want that cart bouncing around a lot, and you don't want it to get stuck in cracks or holes. The best way to keep the ride smooth is to make the wheels huge.

10 reasons why "David" is so awesome:

1. The colossal figure is 17 feet tall, equivalent to a 2-story building. It was carved into a huge marble block of Carrara.
2. The block that was cut was damaged. Two sculptors were tasked with the commission before Michelangelo took control, but neither could successfully work the poor quality stone provided.
3. David's way explained the limitations of the stone. He is slim and his head is pointing to the side because the block was too narrow for him to look forward. Their contrasting position explained a hole that already existed in the marble between the legs.
4. Miguel Angel was only 26 when he started and 28 when he finished. He was already one of the best sculptors alive at the time, having completed the "Pietà" with total disbelief of Rome when he was 24 years old.
5. It was originally meant to sit on the ceiling line of Florence Cathedral. When completed, it was simply too beautiful, and big, to be hoisted up there, and instead displayed at the Palazzo della Signoria.
6. Modern studies have found that it is anatomically perfect, except for a small muscle missing in the back. Michelangelo, who studied anatomy scrupulously, knew this, later wrote that he was limited by a defect in the marble.
7. The jugular vein in David’s neck is bulging, appropriate for someone in a state of fear or excitement (as the young shepherd would have been). Miguel Angel obviously knew this was a feature of the circulatory system, but medical science didn’t document this discovery until 124 years later.
8. It was stylistically innovative. Previous interpretations of David, such as those of Donatello and Verrocchio, represented him victorious over the already murdered Goliath. Here, he is on the precipice of battle, his intense gaze and frowned forehead representing a contemplative moment.
9. David represents the idealized male form and proportion, a common theme in classic Greek sculpture. But Michelangelo's work is much more naturalistic, rooted in anatomical understanding that far surpassed the Greeks. David is both a beautiful representation of the ideal, but surprisingly real, a defining achievement of the Italian Renaissance.
10. Today, about 1.5 million people visit David each year. It has lived in the Accademia Gallery in Florence for 150 years, since it was moved inside in 1873 to protect it from the elements.
As expected, David won the admiration of the great Renaissance artist and historian Giorgio Vasari:
"When everything was finished, it cannot be denied that this work has taken the palm of all other statues, modern or ancient, Greek or Latin; no other work of art is equal to it in any way, with such fair proportion, beauty and excellence was finished by Miguel Angel."

Quote:

Unlike most Renaissance artists, who learned about the human body from ancient sculpture and live models, Michelangelo participated in dissections. According to his acquaintance and biographer Ascanio Condivi, the artist first examined corpses in the convent of Santo Spirito in Florence when he was in his late teens.

Albert took the first photograph of the left to right curvature of the earth. This was published in the May 1936 issue of National Geographic. A 35″x17″ insert was included in the issue. I purchased a copy of the magazine and the fold out. A high-resolution scan of the insert is included below.
The photograph was taken with a Fairchild K-17 camera with a Kodak 304mm f5 lens on Eastman infrared Aero film through a red filter. The film is 9″ wide for a huge photograph.

“I met the amazing animator JIM DANFORTH through Forry Ackerman, when I was about 14. At the time I visited him, at the studio, he was working on the opening sequence for "Here's Lucy". But he was also doing animation on a "Swiss Miss" TV commercial and the "Pillsbury Doughboy". Jim is probably best known for his work on "When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth", as well as working with George Pal & Ray Harryhausen, and on many other films. He is a multi-talented artist, very kind gentleman, it was such a pleasure to meet him, and see the projects he was working on.”
