Good! Last question....
The first Nobel Physics Prize was awarded in 1901 to Wilhelm Roentgen, for his discovery six years earlier. He named his discovery after the fact that he didn’t know what he had found, and the first image he made with this was the bones of his wife’s hand. To complete the contract, name this discovery.
