Neon Facts. Neon (Ne) is a colorless, non-metallic, very inert gas with an atomic number of ten. This member of the noble gas classification glows reddish orange in a vacuum tube. Interesting Neon Facts: While experimenting on liquid air, Sir William Ramsay and Morris Travers discovered neon in 1898.
Suspecting there was another gas to be discovered, the researchers turned to solid argon, letting the solidified gas evaporate under very low pressure. This time, they found the gas that perches above argon on the Periodic Table: neon. The most common use of neon is in neon signs, which have a century-long history. First developed by French engineer Georges Claude in 1902, neon lights create light by applying electricity to neon or argon in a sealed glass tube.
