... Even though the DoD would ultimately select senior Air Force officials, US Navy oceanographers and Air Weather Service officers as shuttle payload specialists, MSEs would be the first personnel from an American military programme to go into space. ... One Air Force officer, Maj. ... Jacobson was concerned about shuttle launch delays and wanted the MSEs to understand that his mission, i.e., the launch of national security payloads, dwarfed their mission, flights in space by Air Force personnel. ...

The Database of Close Binary Systems . ... Team . ... This web-based interactive database is being developed and maintained by a team at the Sternberg Astronomical Institute of the Moscow State University . The project is an on-line extension of our catalogue on "Highly Evolved Close Binary Stars" (volumes I, II) published by Gordon and Breach in 1996. As of September 2009, the database (both the software and the content) is in its development/testing phase. ...
