 Faraday first arrives on the island by parachuting out of a helicopter on December 23 , 2004 . After setting foot on the island , Faraday 's memory problem slowly diminishes . He then encounters the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 , who are believed to be dead by the world at large . On the island , Faraday starts conducting an experiment regarding the island 's unique passage of time . After reuniting with Charlotte , Faraday sneaks off with her to the Tempest Dharma Initiative station , where they neutralize a potential source of poison gas . Later , the corpse of the freighter 's doctor washes ashore . Jack Shephard ( Matthew Fox ) confronts Faraday and he is forced to confess that the freighter upon which they arrived was not sent to the island to rescue the survivors . Around this time , Daniel realizes the Secondary Protocol , detailing the whereabouts of Ben Linus , has been activated by Widmore , necessitating their immediate departure from the island . Faraday begins to ferry survivors to the freighter , but Charlotte and Miles choose to remain on the island . Daniel and five survivors are caught midway , between the Kahana and the island , when the Kahana blows up and the island is " moved " by Ben Linus .

 Chadwick dropped all his other responsibilities to concentrate on proving the existence of the neutron , frequently working late at night . He devised a simple apparatus that consisted of a cylinder containing a polonium source and beryllium target . The resulting radiation could then be directed at a material such as paraffin wax ; the displaced particles , which were protons , would go into a small ionisation chamber where they could be detected with an oscilloscope .
