← Previous Post: ‘[O]ne night at Brookhaven, where he was working on an experiment that involved a radioactive source inside a chamber, Lee noticed that a vacuum pump wasn’t working. So he tinkered with it a while before heading home. Later that night, he gets a call from the lab. “They said, ‘Don’t go anywhere!’” recalls [a colleague]. It turns out the radiation source in the lab had exploded, and the pump filled the lab with radiation. “They were actually able to trace his radioactive footprints from the lab to his home. He kind of shrugged it off.” | Next Post: Spring à la UD. →
