- Xenon - Wikipedia
Because xenon is a tracer for two parent isotopes, xenon isotope ratios in meteorites are a powerful tool for studying the formation of the Solar System The iodine–xenon method of dating gives the time elapsed between nucleosynthesis and the condensation of a solid object from the solar nebula

When and How was it Discovered In July 1898, Morris Travers and William Ramsay while working on liquid air at the University College London, discovered xenon [1] Since they had already isolated other noble gases from the liquid air, they thought that it would contain other gases [1]

Designed to propel spacecraft on deep space missions, it fires a beam of energetic xenon ions Relatively small amounts of ions are ejected, but at very high speeds The Deep Space 1 probe shoots ions out at 146 000 kilometers per hour (more than 88 000 mph)
- Xenon - Living Periodic Table
Xenon (symbol Xe) is a noble gas, meaning it doesn’t react with most other elements It’s colorless, odorless, and found in tiny amounts in the Earth’s atmosphere

From the Greek word xenon, stranger Discovered in 1898 by Ramsay and Travers in residue left after evaporating liquid air Xenon is a member of the so-called noble or "inert" gases It is present in the atmosphere to the extent of about one part in twenty million
