| Abstract I will review the earliest ideas and experiments on the nature of cosmic rays, and how these concepts and methods developed into the modern era of giant arrays such as the Auger observatory. I will then discuss the current searches for the astrophysical sources capable of accelerating the highest energy particles up to 10^20 eV. |
