TitleThe Thomas Gold Prize
Datec. 2000
DescriptionSheet of paper, created using Microsoft Powerpoint, containing a description of The Thomas Gold Prize, 'A prize given annually to a scientist, who has imagined the possibilities, mobilized resources to investigate nature, gathered facts from the investigation, and brought a new view of the mysteries of our universe to the fore. The award is to be given within five years of the publication of data and the award is to be independent of peer review'. This suggests that, although it never happened, someone, quite possibly Thomas Gold himself, was thinking of creating a prize in his name.
