This physicist and engineer received his PhD from Clark University, where he taught for almost 30 years. In 1919, he published A Method of Reaching Extreme Altitudes, and four years later tested a liquid-fuel motor. Receiving 214 patents, he developed jet vanes and gyroscopic control, and in 1935, one of his rockets exceeded the speed of sound.
