Guest Editorial , July 2006 . Past ? Present ? Future . ... SETI, the quest for reasonable signals from Space, is aimed at the Past. ... From here on Earth, we can say with good reason that conducting both searches (SETI) and transmission (METI) of reasonable signals, we appear poised just halfway between the Past and the Future: namely, in the Present! ... This editorial was submitted in response to Their Past, Our Future , by SETI League executive director emeritus H. Paul Shuch. ...

... The first step is to open and inspect the camera body. ... Notice that there are snap locks on both sides of the camera body, one of which should already be open since it contained the film removed by the developer. To open the camera body, peel back some of the yellow sticker identifying the camera as KODAK on the top and bottom of the camera and unsnap the plastic pieces. ... You should now have four pieces: the front cover, back cover, middle (main camera with lens), and a cylindrical spool. ...

Upper Panel: Jet model fits with residuals for observation of GRO~J1655-40, with the jet inclination angle fixed to $75^{\circ}$. The light green dashed line is the pre-shock synchrotron component, the darker green dash-dotted line is the post-shock synchrotron component, the orange dash-dotted line represents the SSC plus the disk external Compton component, the purple dotted line is the multi-temperature disk black body plus a black body representing the companion star in the binary system. ...

The kinematical properties of the fragment ejection processes in the events that produced the presently known asteroid families have long been poorly known due to the presence of a couple of unknown angles (the true anomaly and the argument of the perihelion of the parent body at the epoch of the family formation) in Gauss' equations. ... In these cases, we show that the unknown angles can be reliably determined, and the ejection velocities of the fragments can be fairly well reconstructed. ...

... These computer models are doing very well, but not yet well enough. The problem is dynamic range: any simulation that models a large enough piece of the universe to be representative (a cube of 100 Mpc on a side seems sufficient), cannot have the resolution to accurately follow what happens on galactic scales ( kpc). At present, each point in the n-body code represents around , and you cannot model star formation and galaxy dynamics with only particles. ...
