Haven't found an official press release on this but Yahoo has an article up about a few newly discovered rings of Uranus:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051222/ap_on_sc/uranus_rings These rings were found between the Epsilon ring and Miranda's orbit. One apparently was found at around 97,000 km, near the orbit of Mab, suggesting that Mab supplies material for the ring. These rings are apparently quite faint, probably why VGR2 missed them. -------------------- &@^^!% Jim! I'm a geologist, not a physicist!

The 20th anniversary was just a few days ago -- I completely missed it. I guess it's been sort of overshadowed in everyone's minds by the 20th anniversary of you-know-what (which is today).

No, we did not forget the historic event before the Challenger Tragedy: http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/index.p...indpost&p=38008 -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |
