A refurbished school bus with 17 ATARIs on board circulated among the 21 public schools in the district, giving each fourth-, fifth- and sixth-grader several opportunities to work with Atari's PILOT language. An old school bus (circa 1953), provided by the district, was painted red, white and blue and named the Napa Valley Unified School District Computer Lab. The lab accommodated 32 students at a time with each child sharing a 400. Each learning station also included an 11-inch Quasar television for video display and a cassette recorder for storage. The instructor's station was equipped with a disk drive and dot matrix printer as well as a TV and tape recorder. The lab sessions were 45-minutes each and occurred three times within two weeks.

  • Physics: Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). Main complex. (1986) 3. 2 km (2 mile) long linear accelerator at the Stanford Linear Accel- erator Center (SLAC), California. The end at which the electrons start their journey is in the distance; the experimental areas where the accelerated electrons are smashed into targets, or used for further acceleration in electron-positron Colliders, is in the group of buildings seen here. The giant red- roofed building in the experimental area is End Station A, where the first evidence of quarks was discovered in 1968-72. .Stanford Linear Collider (SLC) experiment, Menlo Park, California. With a length of 3km, the Stanford Linear Accelerator is the largest of its kind in the world. The accelerator is used to produce streams of electrons and positrons, which collide at a combined energy of 100 GeV (Giga electron Volts). This massive energy is sufficient to produce Z-zero particles in the collision. The Z-zero is one of the mediators of the weak nuclear force, the force behind radioactive decay, and was first discovered at CERN, Geneva, in 1983. The first Z-zero at SLC was produced on 11 April 1989.
