Russian Telco Sat Fails After 'Sudden Impact'
Moscow, Russia (SPX) Mar 30, 2006The Russian Satellite Communications Company's Express-AM11 telecommunications satellite suffered a sudden failure on Wednesday. The Dreams And Realities Of Missile Defense 
Washington (UPI) Mar 31, 2006The Israelite slaves in the Book of Exodus were commanded to do the impossible -- make bricks without straw. The challenge of creating the world's most advanced ballistic missile defense systems without enough scientists and engineers to make and maintain them could make that challenge look easy. Rapid Temperature Increases Above The Antarctic 
Cambridge UK (SPX) Mar 31, 2006A new analysis of weather balloon data from the last 30 years reveals that the Antarctic has the same 'global warming' signature as that seen across the whole Earth, but is three times larger than that observed globally |
Neutron Star Collisions Produce Super-Powerful Magnetic Fields
Exeter UK (SPX) Mar 30, 2006Scientists said Thursday they have recreated in computer simulations what appear to be the strongest magnetic fields in the universe - trillions of times more powerful than Earth's magnetic field. Improved Instruments For Analysis Of Samples From Outer Space 
Atlanta GA (SPX) Mar 31, 2006Researchers have identified a new test case that could be used for evaluating extraterrestrial samples for evidence of life. The new test could ultimately allow the use of simpler analytical instrumentation on future space missions. Satellite Quintet Catches Earth's Magnetic Field Oscillating 
Graz Austria (SPX) Mar 30, 2006Five spacecraft from two ESA missions simultaneously encountered large oscillations in Earth's magnetic field as they traveled around the planet's night side on Aug. 5, 2004. |
Raytheon Unit Completes Key VIIRS Tests
El Segundo CA (SPX) Mar 31, 2006Raytheon has successfully completed three key testing milestones on an advanced sensor engineering development unit (EDU) for the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS). New Technology Used For F35 Wind Tunnel Tests 
Arnold AFB TN (SPX) Mar 31, 2006A recent series of successful F-35 Joint Strike Fighter aerodynamic tests in Arnold Engineering Development Center's 16-foot transonic wind tunnel demonstrated the center's ability to adapt propulsion test technologies for use in wind tunnel tests. Frictionless Motion Observed In Water 
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Mar 31, 2006Researchers at the University of Southern California and Brown University say they have achieved near-frictionless motion in water by using lasers to spin a molecule like a propeller. Free rotation can occur in gases, where molecules are far apart. |
Putin Stresses Russia's Need For Nuclear Deterrent
Moscow (AFP) Mar 31, 2006Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday his country needed to maintain a nuclear deterrent to guarantee its security, Russian news agencies reported. US To Test 700-tonne Explosive 
Washington (AFP) Mar 31, 2006The US military plans to detonate a 700-tonne explosive charge in a test called "Divine Strake" that could send a mushroom cloud over Las Vegas, a senior defense official said Thursday. Subsurface Bacteria Release Phosphate To Neutralise Uranium Contamination 
Oak Ridge TN (SPX) Mar 31, 2006Scientists have found that some bacteria found in the soil and subsurface can release phosphate that converts uranium contamination into an insoluble and immobile form. |
