Then, in 1912, Victor Hess carried three enhanced-accuracy Wulf electrometers to an altitude of 5300 meters in a free balloon flight.

" In 1913 – 1914, Werner Kolhörster confirmed Victor Hess ' earlier results by measuring the increased ionization rate at an altitude of 9 km. Increase of ionization with altitude as measured by Hess in 1912 ( left ) and by Kolhörster ( right ) Hess received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1936 for his discovery.

* Victor Hess discovers that the ionization of air increases with altitude, indicating the existence of cosmic radiation.
