Last November, Arno Pen zias and Robert Wilson shared the Nobel Prize for Physics. They were the discoverers, in 1965. of the background radiation that bathes the whole universe. These two scientists, unlike many Nobel prizewinners, do not work in a University, but in what is, essentially, a commercial laboratory - the Bell Laboratories in New Jersey.
Peter Evans visited the laboratory to find out what kind of place it is that allows the flights of fancy of aspiring Nobel prize-winners and the reality of developments for the telephone industry to exist side by side.
