Fact or Fiction

The microwave oven was invented when a scientist's chocolate bar melted in his pocket.
 
Fact!
 
Percy Spencer, an American engineer was standing in front of a high-powered vacuum tube called a magnetron, when he noticed the candy bar in his pocket had melted. He then tested popcorn in front of the magnetron. After subsequent tests and investigations, in 1947 the very first commercial microwave was introduced, patented by Mr. Spencer.
 
Today, the microwave is an office pantry staple.  Have any humorous stories to share regarding your office's microwave?  Please e-mail them to Jennifer Loftus, and we may feature you in an upcoming issue of Astronology!
