Florentine_Pogen Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Joint discoverer of cosmic background radiation and Nobel prizewinner, Arno Allan Penzias. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arno_Allan_Penzias “Although Penzias and Wilson had not been looking for cosmic background radiation, didn’t know what it was when they had found it, and hadn’t described or interpreted its character in any paper, they received the 1978 Nobel Prize in physics. The Princeton researchers got only sympathy. According to Dennis Overbye in Lonely Hearts of the Cosmos, neither Penzias nor Wilson altogether understood the significance of what they had found until they read about it in the New York Times.” ― Bill Bryson, A Short History of Nearly Everything 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
