Sputniks 1 and 2 had batteries which worked for three weeks and six days, respectively. The batteries on Explorer 1 worked for four months. ...

Just in case anyone’s curious what I’ve been up to recently: 1. Have appeared on a nationally syndicated radio program (The John Batchelor Show). 2. Have appeared on C-SPAN (for more than an hour). 3. Have a review of a new documentary which will be published in November (maybe tomorrow). The errors...
