On August 11th, my astronomy group Skyscrapers Inc., has as our monthly speaker Nobel Laureate Dr. Robert Wilson, co-discoverer of the 3 degree cosmic backround radiation, thought to have originated in the early stages of the expansion of the universe. I am looking for a source to buy the photo of him and Arno Penzias standing in front of their horn shaped antenna which was used for the discovery ... does anyone know of a dealer for this type of material?Thanks, Dan www.theskyscrapers.org

Dan,Go here: http://pro.corbis.com/default.aspx Select search all and type +wilson +penzias Are these the images you need? I guess they won't be cheap, though... Did you get the message that I received your letter? E-mailing doesn't seem to work, for some reason. Best, Ed Hengeveld |

Hi Ed,I did get your email forwarded to me and sent you two followups that I guess you haven't received ... not sure why. Adam and Ed, many thanks for your help! I look forward to meeting Dr. Wilson and getting the famous photo of him and Penzias in front of the "horn" signed. Best, Dan | |
