Captain Atom was a scientist-adventurer who used gadgets to investigate the unknown and fight various menaces. His gadgets and vehicles included a uranium amplifier, a spectroscope, an atom submarine, a walkie-talkie television, atom powered noiseless ram rocket, and an auto-gyro parachute. The stories he appeared in were written to teach kids lessons about science (as it was understood at the time of publication).
