The XPA messaging system provides seamless communication between many kinds of Unix programs, including X programs and Tcl/Tk programs. It also provides an easy way for users to communicate with these XPA-enabled programs by executing XPA client commands in the shell or by utilizing such commands in scripts. ... A program becomes an XPA-enabled server by defining named points of public access through which data and commands can be exchanged with other client programs (and users). ...

... I am involved in Project Astro, a program to bring astronomers into public schools to assist with teaching students about science and astronomy. ... While there are all sorts of scale model of the Solar System type exercises ( Mitchell Charity's page has a good listing of what's available), none were really tailored towards discovering the spatial relationships of the planets, and in a way that could be done at night as part of a Star Party. ...

... Coordinate system . It is necessary to specify the coordinate system for the drilling of plug-plates so that the drilling file (currently named plPlugMap), plate drilling, cartridge, rotator wrap and the rotator itself are compatible. ... The TCC rotator angle (object system) is defined to be 0 degrees for this orientation. ... Thus, the rotator angle gives the conventional astronomical position angle on the sky of the y axis (although Russell won't acknowledge this necessarily). ...

... They are concerned with Attitude Control System of the spacecraft, satellite visibility from tracking stations, limits on the satellite autonomous operations during the orbit, and needs for auxiliary operations with the spacecraft. ... Among the operational constraints the most important one is the number of programmed slews per orbit, which determines the maximum number of radio sources to be observed during one orbit. ...
