    Extractions: In 1984, the skeleton of a human was found during an archaeological dig in South America. Through the use of a technique called “radiocarbon dating” the archaeologists were able to determine that the skeleton was close to 1,000 years old. If this skeleton had been discovered forty years earlier than it was, scientists would not have been able to determine its age. The radiocarbon dating technique they used was not developed until 1947 by an American chemist named Willard Frank Libby. The development of this dating technique won Libby the 1960 Nobel Prize in chemistry. Along with his significant development of radiocarbon dating, Libby proved to be one of America’s greatest chemists and professors. Willard Frank Libby was born on December 17, 1908 in Grand Valley, Colorado to parents Ora Edward Libby and his wife Eva May. In 1913, Willard, his two brothers, two sisters and parents moved to a ranch just outside of San Francisco, California. Libby attended grammar school and high school in Sebastopol, California. When not in school he helped out on the ranch and grew to be very muscular and strong. Libby used his strength to dominate on the football field and soon received the nickname “Wild Bill”. He graduated from high school in 1926 and went on to attend the University of California at Berkeley. Libby made money in college by building apple boxes and selling them for a penny a piece. On December 8, 1941 Libby received a call from the United States government. Libby was needed at Columbia University to work on a government-sponsored effort called the Manhattan project. The Manhattan project was formed in response to the bombing of Pearl Harbor during World War II when the United States decided to join the war. The goal was to create an atom bomb for the US. Libby contributed by developing a method for separating uranium isotopes, which proved essential in creating the atom bomb. When the war ended in 1945 so did the Manhattan project. Libby accepted an offer from the University of Chicago as a chemistry professor and also began researching at the Institute of Nuclear Studies.

    Extractions: American Treasures of the Library of Congress On the morning of December 17 Wilbur and Orville Wright took turns piloting and monitoring their flying machine in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina. Orville piloted the first flight that lasted just twelve seconds. On the fourth and final flight of the day, Wilbur traveled 852 feet, remaining airborne for 57 seconds. That morning the brothers became the first people to demonstrate sustained flight of a heavier-than-air machine under the complete control of the pilot. They had built the 1903 Flyer in sections in the back room of their Dayton, Ohio, bicycle shop. That afternoon, the Wright brothers walked the four miles to Kitty Hawk and sent a telegram to their father, Bishop Milton Wright, back home in Dayton: Success four flights thursday morning all against twenty one mile wind started from level with engine power alone average speed through air thirty one miles longest 57 seconds inform Press home Christmas.

They corresponded frequently with engineer Octave Chanute, a friend and supporter of their work. On May 13, 1900, Wilbur wrote a

Libby was born in Grand Valley, Colorado, and educated at the University of California at Berkeley. With the outbreak of World War II he became engaged in research on the atomic bomb project.Libby is best known for having perfected, in 1947, the carbon-14 dating technique, a method of determining the approximate age of prehistoric organic remains. For this work Libby was awarded the 1960 Nobel Prize for Chemistry. His work also includes the study of the heavy-hydrogen isotope tritium. Back
