physicist, was born at Mt. Pleasant, Iowa and was educated at Iowa Wesleyan College and the State University of Iowa.

He led a scientific expedition for the study of cosmic radiation in Peru and made similar studies in Alaska, Greenland, and Antarctica.
Meanwhile he had become professor of physics at the State University of Iowa. Although his work in developing the proximity fuze and the Aerobee rocket may have won him acclaim, he is best knowno as the discoverer of the “Van Allen Belt”, a radioactive layer surrounding the earth.
