Oooops, they were not funded to find this. Of course, almost any physicist who has looked at particle tracks in cloud chambers would have known this was true decades ago. Cosmic rays are the main source of "noise" in cloud chambers. Even worse, charging not only nucleates vapor droplets but stabilizes them against evaporation as has long been known, a phenomena known over a hundred years ago. |

You don't know squat about science. I guess you don't believe we should have anyone else test the hypothesis. That would go along with your notion of early man riding dinosaurs. |
