Wonders Of Modern Science Exhibited In New York City
A display in New York shows frozen light at 312 degrees below zero and corn popping between ice water jars via radio waves. L. A. Hawkins and E. L. Manning of General Electric presented the experiments, linking cathode ray tube effects to visible mineral glow and harmless popping corn with short radio waves. The exhibit notes potential cooking control and references GE’s radio fever tube used in medical research.
