Degrees Kelvin

Listen Thursday, May. 13, 2004 at 1:32 p.m. in Science

Some of us remember learning the absolute temperature scale, some may even remember the refrigerator line the "Kelvinator" but what do you know about Lord Kelvin? Find out about the first academic scientist who got rich off his patents, he was laid to rest next to Sir Isaac Newton and then later disappeared from the history books.

Audio archives, transcripts and CDs will be available approximately 15 minutes after the program ends.

Guests

David Lindley

author, astrophysicist
