1908 Giant Cylindrical Slide Rule comprising two wheels with scales on the outside edge. Each can rotate separately from the other, with a foot operated brake to lock the wheels while transfering calculations. The diameter looks to be about 4 feet which gives a scale length of 150 inches,or 15 times the length of a standard slide rule.

Martin Luther Mosher (1882-1982) with his Cylindrical Slide Rule built into the side of his Desk. It was based on two adjacent wood front wagon wheels that were typically 42 inches in diameter, with a circumference that is the equivalent of a 264 inch (22ft) linear slide rule. It appears to hold only C and D scales with handrawn divisions of the same number as a standard slide rule so any additional significant figures would have to be extrapolated past3 or 4. Mosher's bio and papers are listed at Iowa State Archives

In the 116 year history of the Nobel Prize in Physics, only two women have won the award; Marie Curie (1903) and Maria Mayer (1963). Maria Mayer rediscovered nuclear 'magic numbers' and then developed a theoretical justification for them. Rather than see another physicist who independently developed the same theory as a rival, she collaborated with him on articulating the theory, leading them to sharing a Nobel Prize in physics.

The Chicago publication Young People's Weekly described her in 1907 as a slide rule phenomenon for her abilities as a mathematician and calculator.

During packaging of the contents, under the direction of representatives of the United States National Bureau of Standards, each object was examined to determine whether it could be expected to last 5,000 years.

Care was taken to select items are not interactive and do not decompose into harmful gases or acids. Organic items (for example, seeds) were placed in sealed glass vials.Five categories of objects were placed inside the capsule.: Small articles of common use (including a K&E 4081-3 Slide rule with leather sleeve), Textiles and materials, Essay in microfilm, RKO newsreel, Miscellaneous items.


1939 & 1964 Worlds Fair, Flushing Meadows, Queens, NYC

The contents of the time capsules were sealed inside an insulated, airtight, glass envelope with an interior diameter of 6.5 inches (17 cm) and a length of about 81 inches (210 cm). The interior of the glass envelope of Capsule I was filled with nitrogen, whereas Capsule II was filled with the inert gas, argon. The term "time capsule" was coined by George Edward Pendray for the 1939 World's Fair Westinghouse exhibit in New York.

Preparing to cosign the Time Capsule to its 5,000 year resting place are A.W. Robertson, Westinghouse Electric Company's chairman of the board (left) and Grover A. Whalen, president of the New York World's Fair.
