4 Quotations from Kirk Meadowcroft

dimensional adj. [1928 K. Meadowcroft Invisible Bubble in Amazing Stories Sept. 510/2 At this intensity the rays very nearly approach the magnitude of the ‘cosmic rays’ of Millikan. They are apparently harmless to life but they seem to be closely associated with the dimensional relations of matter. ]
hyperspace n. 1928 K. Meadowcroft Invisible Bubble in Amazing Stories Sept. 508/2 Are we not justified in supposing, by the analogy of the reversibility of reactions in chemistry, that the boundary lines of space and hyper-space may not be so rigidly drawn as we have supposed?
hyperspace n. 1928 K. Meadowcroft Invisible Bubble in Amazing Stories Sept. 512/1 We have discovered by my synthesis the factors necessary to produce a disturbance of spatial relation. We see they they may occur in nature; that under certain conditions, by the aid of lightning as well as by my tube, there may be produced the globules of hyper-space, which then seek each other out—flow together—and travel in vague and erratic fashion, as they may be drawn here and there by one influence or another. They seek each other out, not by any attraction but by the simple and all-powerful law of chance—the result of an infinity of chances—the most inexorable law of any universe. They seek each other out and flow together;—you will remember that.
space-bound adj. 1 1928 K. Meadowcroft Invisible Bubble in Amazing Stories Sept. 508/2 Even though we know that there are other space-worlds co-existent with ours, we have still been space-bound. The limitation that our own bodies impose upon us holds us prisoner.
