Hi everybody,
finally this couple of satellites were launched today... Do you know how long will it take for them to "catch" the A-train of satellites? Regards |

First CloudSat Images Wowing Scientists
Washington, D.C. (SPX) Jun 07, 2006 The first images from NASA's new CloudSat satellite already are revealing never-before-seen 3-D details about clouds. Mission managers tested the flight and ground system performance of the satellite's Cloud-Profiling Radar in late May, and they found it to be working perfectly. http://www.spacemart.com/reports/First_Clo...Scientists.html -------------------- "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 |
