14. Okt. 2019 · Learn about the life and science of Harold Urey, who discovered deuterium, worked on the Manhattan Project, and studied the origins of life and the Moon. This book review by Matthew Shindell explores Urey's pious upbringing, his political views, and his contributions to chemistry and cosmology.
Harold Urey wondered if the smallest atom, hydrogen, had different isotopes, and he calculated how they ought to be constituted if that were the case. By distilling liquid hydrogen, a hydrogen isotope was extracted in 1932 that was twice as heavy as regular hydrogen. It was called deuterium.
