The thermodynamics of condensation from a cooling neutral gas of solar composition, have now been explored in great detail. Theories based on equilibrium condensation have had some striking successes, but there is still much to learn. There seems good reason to explore the condensation process experimentally, so far as it is possible to simulate the conditions usually assumed, to compare the results with what we see in the meteorites, and with the calculations. Preliminary results of this experimental investigation are being reported here.
