THE ORIGINS
In 1894, Ramsay and Lord Rayleigh had discovered argon
Then, in 1895, Ramsay obtained the world’s first sample of helium
Ramsay and Traerse knew an element had to exist between helium and argon
They evaporated argon under reduced pressure and collected the first gas that came off
Neon was finally discovered in 1898 by William Ramsay and Morris Traerse
