... 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. ...

. Comment on J0126-0123 . No detection: this object has been studied with the Molonglo telescope at 408 MHz (Schilizzi & McAdam 1975) as a source with a size between 2 and 5 . It is near an Abell cluster (Owen & Ledlow 1997). The data could be confused with a strong radio source (3C 40) identified with a pair of galaxies at z=0.018, 170" from our field center.

Maps of six sources (0420+022, 0420-014, 1308+326, 1345+125, 1803+784, and DA 193) obtained with milliarcsecond resolution are presented and discussed, together with their broadband (122 GHz) spectra obtained on the RATAN600 radio telescope at epochs close to those of the VLBI observations. ... The image (Fig. 5) shows that the source structure at 18 cm is compact, consisting of a VLBI core and two jet components, with the outer component lying 5 mas (30 pc) to the northwest of the core ( = 54 ). ...

Охотники за потенциально опасными астероидами получили гранты на исследования . ... Получатели грантов Gene Shoemaker Near Earth Object Grants прошлых лет открыли много ранее неизвестных астероидов, в том числе астероид 2004 GA1, который является первым потенциально опасным астероидом размером более 1 км в поперечнике, открытый астрономом-любителем (им был Джон Броутон (John Broughton)). Кстати, получить грант имени Джина Шумейкера может и профессиональный астроном и астроном-любитель. ...
... Advises . Contact Advises . As an advise for amateurs we would like to underline: if it's possible, try to observe 3 asteroid positions per night and do not neglect to observe the Numbered Minor Planets in your telescope field of view as a "by product" of your observational programs. ... We think such estimations ought to be produced every morning after CCD observations of the moving celestial objects by observer himself. ...
... The author attempts to approach the problem from the positions of systems analysis with account for the ideological grounds and history of space activities in Russia and abroad, comparing its current interpretation with the initial goals posed by leading theoreticians and practitioners who stood at the cradle of the space exploration era. ... The space systems recognized in Russia as priority projects are largely developed with violations of the systems approach principles. ...
