Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2009 16:59:41 -0400 (EDT) From: Kenneth Sembach Subject: HST Status 5:00 PM June 15, 2009 Good Afternoon Everyone, Early this morning, Hubble's new Science Instrument Control and Data Handling (SI C&DH) unit stopped communicating properly with HST's main spacecraft computer (the "HST 486"). The 486 computer recognized this lack of communication and initiated a macro to put the science instruments into safe mode. ...

The original files with the data were in different formats. ... Such files were named "standard data files" and linked to the database. They can be easily transformed to any desirable format by a code. Here we present two simple computer programs of this kind. ... When running the code, you can specify columns in the output file: wavelength, energy (eV) or wavenumber (cm -1 ) as the first column, and complex refractive index or dielectric function as the second and third columns. ...

Computers become more and more popular nowadays. That means that the amount of people who are able to work with computer programmes and play computer games has increased. In many cases computer games are the only thing that a person is accustomed to. ... As a result of this epidemic "homo playing" may put on the isoreality helmet which makes a person, crazy about games, forget about food, slumber and all other components of real life: "homo playing" becomes isolated from community. ...
