ich was wild with metaphorical imagery: circular tubes full of fire, small holes through which celestial fire was visible as stars, and hemispherical Earth riding on turtleback. It was this wild modeling strategy, not Babylonian extrapolation, that jolted Eratosthenes (276- 194 BC) to perform one of the

0. The strands of cable needed to make up the magnetic coils in the LHC span about 270,000 kilometers, or about six times the circum- ference of the Earth. If all the filaments in the strands were unrav- eled, they would stretch to the Sun and back more than five times. 11. The total energy in each bea

on to stir the embers was a theorist who worked di- rectly in the field of condensed matter physics associated with super- conductivity in materials. Philip Anderson, at Princeton, later a Nobel laureate for other work, suggested that one of the most fundamental, ubiquitous phenomena in superconductors might be
