The Tuesday morning move sets the stage for a liftoff Wednesday at 10:26 a.m. EST. Weather for launch day stands at 40 percent "go" at liftoff time due to wind, cloud thickness and a slight chance of showers. The temperature at launch time is expected to be a chilly 51 degrees. Live coverage of the launch will begin at 7:15 a.m. Wednesday on ... read more |

Moffett Field CA (SPX) Feb 10, 2010NASA astronomers have demonstrated that a David of a telescope can tackle Goliath-size questions in the quest to study Earth-like planets around other stars. Their work, reported in the journal Nature, provides a new tool for ground-based observatories, promising to accelerate by years the search for prebiotic, or life-related, molecules on planets orbiting stars beyond our solar system. T ... more Businessman to fly African flags on space trip

Optical Refrigeration Expected To Enhance Airborne And Spaceborne AppsArlington VA (AFNS) Feb 10, 2010 Under an Air Force Office of Scientific Research, multi-university grant, a team led by University of New Mexico professor, Dr. Mansoor Sheik-Bahae created the first-ever all-solid-state cryocooler that can be applied to airborne and spaceborne sensors. This technology, which allows coolers to reach temperatures so cold that they can only be obtained by liquefying gases, may lead to advances in superconducting electronics because it would enable miniaturization for cooling purposes. Gradua ... read more |
