George Alcorn is a pioneering physicist and engineer
noted for his aerospace and semiconductor inventions.
His x-ray imaging
spectrometer, patented during his career at NASA Goddard Space Flight
Center (GSFC), allowed for the detection of radio signatures at a more
distant and accurate rate than previously possible and influenced the
continued evolution of imaging devices.
Used with space telescopes and other satellites, x-ray imaging
spectrometers provide highly useful data for a wide range of scientific
and technical applications.
With improvements that addressed structural
and performance deficiencies, Alcorn's devices and their descendants
have been used to conduct planetary mapping, search for new planets,
create star charts to reveal motions of systems, and examine deep space
phenomena.
Other significant inventions concerned plasma etching for semiconductor devices. In 1999, Alcorn was honored with an award from Government Executive
magazine for developing the Airborne LIDAR Topographic Mapping System
(ALTMS) in partnership with the Houston Advanced Research Center.[2]
After earning his PhD, Alcorn spent twelve years working in the private sector.[3] He held positions as senior scientist at Philco-Ford, senior physicist at Perkin-Elmer, and advisory engineer at IBM.[3]
Personal life
Alcorn married his wife Marie DaVillier in 1969 and they have one son born in 1979.[5] Alcorn's brother Charles works at IBM as a research physicist.[5]
During the summers of 1962 and 1963, he worked as a research engineer for the Space Division of North American Rockwell.
He was involved with the computer analysis of launch trajectories and orbital mechanics for Rockwell missiles, including the Titan I and II, the Saturn and the Nova.[1]
Alcorn received a four-year academic scholarship to Occidental College
in Los Angeles, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Science in
Physics.
He received his degree with honors while earning eight letters
in basketball and football. Alcorn earned a Master of Science in Nuclear
Physics in 1963 from Howard University, after nine months of study.
Dunkley was born on December 29, 1939 in New York.[2][3]
Dunkley, who has a Masters degree in Physics, has conducted research in
human vision.
That research led to his discovery that a 2-dimensional picture
would appear as 3-dimensional if two points in a person's peripheral
vision were blocked.[2][4]
This discovery led to future improvements of 3D viewing glasses and the technology we use to view films today.[5][6]
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
6 Now
when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were
confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.
14 But
Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto
them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this
known unto you, and hearken to my words:
15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.
16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
17 And
it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of
my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall
prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall
dream dreams:

21 And the Lord
went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way;
and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and
night:
22 He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.

37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
39 (But
this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should
receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was
not yet glorified.)

Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord
your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will
cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter
rain in the first month.

23 Take
thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred
shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty
shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels,
24 And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin:
25 And
thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after
the art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy anointing oil.

I
indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but he that cometh after
me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall
baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

And
Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and,
lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God
descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
