ATOMS, MOLECULES, AND ETHER WAVES.

By John Tyndall, F.R.S.

I.

Man is prone to idealization. He cannot accept as final the phenomena of the sensible world, but looks behind that world into another which rules the sensible one. From this tendency of the human mind, systems of mythology and scientific theories have equally sprung. By the former the experiences of volition, passion, power, and design, manifested among ourselves, were transplanted, with the necessary modifications, into an unseen universe from which the sway and potency of those magnified human qualities were exerted. "In the roar of thunder and in the violence of the storm was felt the presence of a shouter and furious strikers, and out of the rain was created an Indra or giver of rain." It is substantially the same with science, the principal force of which is expended in endeavoring to rend the veil which separates the sensible world from an ultra-sensible one. In both cases our materials, drawn from the world of the senses, are modified by the imagination to suit intellectual needs. The "first beginnings" of Lucretius were not objects of sense, but they were suggested and illustrated by objects of sense. The idea of atoms proved an early want on the part of minds in pursuit of the knowledge of nature. It has never been relinquished, and in our own day it is growing steadily in power and precision.

The union of bodies in fixed and multiple proportions constitutes the basis of modern atomic theory. The same compound retains, for ever, the same elements, in an unalterable ratio. We cannot produce pure water containing one part, by weight, of hydrogen and nine of oxygen, nor can we produce it when the ratio is one to ten; but we can produce it from the ratio of one to eight, and from no other. So also when water is decomposed by the electric current, the proportion, as regards volumes, is as fixed as in the case of weights. Two volumes of hydrogen and one of oxygen invariably go the formation of water. Number and harmony, as in the Pythagorean system, are everywhere dominant in this under-world.

Following the discovery of fixed proportions we have that of multiple proportions. For the same compound, as above stated, the elementary factors are constant; but one elementary body often unites with another so as to form different compounds. Water, for example, is an oxide of hydrogen; but a peroxide of that substance also exists, containing exactly double the quantity of oxygen. Nitrogen also unites with oxygen in various ratios, but not in all. The union takes place, not gradually and uniformly, but by steps, a definite weight of matter being added at each step. The larger combining quantities of oxygen are thus multiples of the smaller ones. It is the same with other combinations.

We remain thus far in the region of fact: why not rest there? It might as well be asked why we do not, like our poor relations of the woods and forests, rest content with the facts of the sensible world. In virtue of our mental idiosyncrasy, we demand why bodies should combine in multiple proportions, and the outcome and answer of this question is the atomic theory. The definite weights of matter, above referred to, represent the weights of atoms, indivisible by any force which chemistry has hitherto brought to bear upon them. If matter were a continuum—if it were not rounded off, so to say, into these discrete atomic masses—the impassable breaches of continuity which the law of multiple proportions reveals, could not be accounted for. These atoms are what Maxwell finely calls "the foundation stones of the material universe," which, amid the wreck of composite matter, "remain unbroken and unworn."

A group of atoms drawn and held together by what chemists term affinity is called a molecule. The ultimate parts of all compound bodies are molecules. A molecule of water, for example, consists of two atoms of hydrogen, which grasp and are grasped by one atom of oxygen. When water is converted into steam, the distances between the molecules are greatly augmented, but the molecules themselves continue intact. We must not, however, picture the constituent atoms of any molecule as held so rigidly together as to render intestine motion impossible. The interlocked atoms have still liberty of vibration, which may, under certain circumstances, become so intense as to shake the molecule asunder. Most molecules—probably all—are wrecked by intense heat, or in other words by intense vibratory motion; and many are wrecked by a very moderate heat of the proper quality. Indeed, a weak force, which bears a suitable relation to the constitution of the molecule, can, by timely savings and accumulations, accomplish what a strong force out of relation fails to achieve.

(from internet transcript)

(They stand up and collect their helmets from one of the rear benches. Once they are fully suited up, Greer begins to attach one end of a cable to one of the columns, and Scott opens the rear doors to reveal the jagged hole in the side of the other ship. Adam shines a flashlight across the gap and Greer, holding the other end of the cable, walks to the rear of the shuttle.)

GREER: Let's go explore.

(He stops at the doors and looks across the gap. It's about twenty feet to the other ship.)

GREER: I'll see you on the other side!

(Pushing himself off, he floats across to the hole and drifts inside, managing to get one foot down onto the floor and the mag lock engaged. However, his forward impetus keeps his upper body going and although he holds out his hands to brace against the opposite wall, his head still thumps solidly into the surface. He stays in that position for a moment, getting his breath - and dignity - back, and then straightens up and reports.)

GREER: I'm on board.

(Cocking his rifle and checking around, he then ties off the cable around a couple of uprights, pulling it taut across the gap between the two vessels. In the shuttle, Adam clips a tether onto the cable and waits until Greer turns to face him.)

GREER: I'm ready for you.

Episode Summary

Destiny encounters two warring races and is caught in the middle. Meanwhile, Chloe continues to transform, and an ally thought dead returns.

(from internet transcript)









(On Destiny's Observation Deck, several crew members are looking out at the debris field. Suddenly something small whizzes rapidly past the window and heads towards the rear of the ship. Camille snatches out her radio.)

WRAY: Colonel, this is Camille. We're not alone out here.

(Out in the debris field, all of the smaller vessels begin to wake. Shortly afterwards, Scott watches as the drones - way more than just seven of them - whizz past. The simulation apparently only showed part of the fleets.)

SCOTT: Sir, you have potential hostiles en route.

(The drones race through the debris field, ducking around the broken pieces of the larger ships, and head towards our girl.)

YOUNG: Shields to full. Ready weapons. Fire only on my command.

(Recognising that it's going into battle, the Bridge begins to lower down so that it will be protected inside the ship.)

YOUNG: Eli, I want you to broadcast a message.

WALLACE: In Ancient?

YOUNG: Ancient, English, Bat Signal, whatever else you've got. Tell them we are not a threat.

(Eli races towards the appropriate console. On the shuttle, Scott runs towards the rear of the ship.)

SCOTT: Greer! I need you guys back here now!

(Greer and Adam are hurrying as fast as they can in their heavy spacesuits, but it's really no more than a fast trot.)

(On Destiny, an alarm begins to sound all over the ship. Crew members look up nervously and stand, gathering their equipment. In her quarters, Chloe stands calmly and looks out of her window as the alarm continues insistently.









Outside the ship, the drones swarm around her, firing all the time. The shields can no longer hold back everything and blasts are starting to impact the surface.

(Scott runs along the corridors and reaches the entrance to the Control Interface Room. Swinging around and aiming his rifle into the room, he sees Chloe with her back to him as she works busily on a console.)

SCOTT: Chloe? Chloe?

(He hurries towards her.)

SCOTT: Step away from that console!

(Reaching her, he seizes her wrist and spins her around. She gazes at him blankly.)

ARMSTRONG: It's too late.

SCOTT: What did you do?

(She blinks, coming to herself.)

SCOTT: Chloe, what did you do?

(She stares at him, then frowns, unable to remember.)

(On the Bridge, Nicholas has finally deigned to join the party.)

PARK: Shields are weakening and several weapons platforms are down!

TELFORD (frowning at his console): Dammit.

YOUNG: What do they say?

TELFORD: Nothing! They're not responding.

VOLKER: The drones are giving as good as they get. There's no way we're getting to that command ship.

BRODY: You might wanna consider falling back.

RUSH: There's nowhere to fall back to.

(from internet transcript)

OBSERVATION DECK. As Eli and Nick walk onto the deck and stroll towards the front railing, the ship shimmers briefly as she enters normal space. Young is already standing at the railing with Camille Wray, and they all stare at the sight that greets them. The space ahead of them is filled with countless bits of what was presumably once a fleet - or a couple of fleets - but now all the vessels (and pieces of vessels) are silent and motionless.

WALLACE: Is that ...?

YOUNG: Ships ... or what's left of them.

WALLACE (shocked): That is one hell of a battlefield.

WRAY: It was a battlefield. Now it's a graveyard.

LATER. The scientific team is in the old Control Interface Room where the holoscreen is showing the debris ahead of the ship. Young comes in.

YOUNG: So ...

PARK: Uh, it turns out the energy signature Destiny locked onto was the clustered radiation pockets of the various ships.

RUSH: It looks like at least one of them is familiar to us.

(He indicates the ship on the screen. Young looks at it more closely.)

BRODY: That's the same type of ship you and Doctor Rush explored a couple of weeks back.

YOUNG: Yeah, from the looks of things, they came out the losers in this fight.

VOLKER: I'm having Destiny's computer run a programme that'll plot back some of these dispersion patterns. Hopefully then we'll get a better idea what's going on here.

YOUNG: In the meantime?

RUSH: Well, in the meantime, Colonel, we've come a long way. Seems a shame to leave empty-handed. I suggest a bit of cautious exploration.

one night, Randy Cole and I, and another guy named Eddie I think, were running through a neighbors backyard. One of our friends had a trampoline and we would go over and jump on it sometimes. This particular night we were going through that yard and we heard a screen door slam. Eddy and Randy ran one way, I ran the other way. As it turned out, I ran the wrong way. This huge dude hopped down off some kind of embankment wall brandishing a big knife and asking why I was in their yard.

In another dream, the day before, last night maybe when I took a nap, I was walking up some stairs. I seemed to be coming up from a subway tunnel. I was wearing a very realistic Batman costume. But I didn't have the cowl covering my head. The costume was heavy or I just felt tired. I walked past someone I knew. I said something to her that reminded me of something I said to someone in that restaurant in 1999 when someone asked me what I did in my personal time. There was some other stuff that happened in the dream. At one point, I responded to a question that had something to do with "vice president" by replying "Sure it is. I was vice president of the National Honor Society."

Tables Turned: Entire Police Department Quits After Finding Out What It Feels Like to Be Tracked

Alex Barrientos

Sun, November 1, 2026 at 9:05 AM PST 3 min read

Concern about an employee's work hours is a management problem. There are established ways to address it: documented conversations, formal audits, or a request for a council review. Milner Mayor Craig Timmons chose a GPS tracker instead. Timmons acknowledged placing the device on Police Chief Lamar Bunn's vehicle, according to WSB-TV, which reported his confirmation. He also arranged for a surveillance camera pointed toward City Hall, according to local reporting, though the camera's full authorization and purpose remain less firmly documented.

His stated justification was concern about Bunn's timesheets, which required the mayor's signature.

Personal Funds, No Council Vote, No Transparency

Timmons paid for the tracker himself and did not bring the matter to the city council before acting, according to accounts presented during council discussions.

Milner sits in Lamar County, Georgia, with a population of roughly 772 people. Timmons paid for the tracker with personal funds and bypassed the council, according to those same accounts.

He initially declined to comment when asked about the device during a council meeting, then confirmed the placement to WSB-TV.

Chief, Officers, City Manager: All Gone by October 28

Bunn said he had done nothing wrong, and a resignation letter pointed to concerns about leadership and judgment that extended well beyond one device.

Bunn said he had done nothing wrong and consulted an outside agency about whether the tracking violated the law or his rights. No criminal charge or definitive legal finding has been established in the available reporting. A Georgia Bureau of Investigation inquiry was mentioned in local reporting; its status and scope remain unclear.

Chief Bunn, all five full-time officers, and most reserve personnel resigned, with departures effective October 28, 2026. City Manager Tausha Grose also resigned shortly after.

A resignation letter obtained by WSB-TV cited concerns about the "judgment and decision-making" of the mayor and certain council members regarding the police department. Bunn said he did not ask the officers to leave.

772 Residents, No Full-Time Officers After October 28

The Lamar County Sheriff's Office was reported to be providing coverage, though the operational details of that arrangement were not officially confirmed in available reporting.

The departures left Milner without its full-time police force as of October 28. The available reporting indicates county coverage was expected to fill the gap, but the details of that arrangement remain unconfirmed by an official announcement.

Small Towns Have Oversight Tools. Timmons Didn't Use Them.

The governance failure here is straightforward to diagnose, even if the consequences for residents have already arrived.

Municipal governments have recognized mechanisms for addressing personnel concerns: documented performance reviews, timesheet audits initiated through proper administrative channels, or a council-authorized inquiry. Those processes exist to protect employees from abuse and to protect elected officials from exactly the outcome Timmons is now facing.

Timmons bought a tracker with personal funds, installed it without council knowledge, and aimed a camera at City Hall. He acted outside the institutional channels that exist precisely to make oversight accountable and transparent.

The result is not merely an HR dispute. A town of 772 people lost its entire full-time police force, and the accounts of those who left cite broader concerns about leadership, judgment, and trust in addition to the tracker itself. Resignation letters pointed to a failure of governance, not just a single questionable decision.

The tracker did not create that failure. It made it visible.
