EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting image captures the magic and wonder of the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures in 1914, as little girls eagerly participate in an experiment demonstrated by Professor Herbert Hall Turner. In the photograph, Professor Turner pours a cryogenic liquid, believed to be liquid air, into a container of water, creating a stunning spectacle of a white cloud that envelops the girls. Dressed in their best Sunday best, the children excitedly fan the cloud away, their faces filled with curiosity and delight. The Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, first established in 1825, have been a cherished holiday tradition in the United Kingdom for over a century. These annual lectures aim to inspire and educate young minds about science and scientific concepts through engaging and interactive demonstrations. This photograph, taken in 1914, showcases the enduring appeal of science and the joy it brings to children. Professor Herbert Hall Turner (1861-1930) was a renowned British physicist and a regular lecturer at the Royal Institution. His expertise in the field of thermodynamics and cryogenics made him an ideal choice for presenting the Christmas Lectures during this period. The experiment depicted in the photograph likely involved the use of liquid air, which was a relatively new and fascinating discovery at the time. This photograph offers a captivating glimpse into the past, showcasing the excitement and wonder that science can instill in young minds. It serves as a reminder of the importance of fostering curiosity and a love for learning, especially during the holiday season.
