The article cites an online survey of 1,300 office workers in Great Britain regarding the adequacy of the office space allotted to them. The survey found that those at the bottom of the hierarchy had on average just 12.5 square feet of floor space to call their own. This was likely to ...
56. The first successful planetary space probe was the USA's Mariner 2, which flew past Venus in 1962. 57. Voyager 2 has flown over 6 billion km and is heading out of the solar system after passing close to Neptune in 1989. 58. To save fuel on journeys to distant planets, space pr...
3.5Review and analysis of satellite incidents For our analysis, we have prepared a timeline of incidents involving the space industry from various sources including academic literature, governmental agencies and news articles from the public domain between 1977 and 2019Footnote8. These incidents were cat...
Work on the Voyager space probe came to a screeching halt as they frantically redesigned it to cope with the radiation, but still be assembled in time for the launch window. Terra's zone of glowing blue death is called the Van Allen radiation belts. The Inner Belt starts at an altitude ...
We present a new manifestation of the nonlinearity of gravity-matter interactions. We show explicitly that there exists a nongravitating dynamical scalar f... I Cho,HC Kim - 《Physical Review D Particles & Fields》 被引量: 33发表: 2013年 The Information Geometry of Space and Time Is the ge...
An H-2A rocket blasted off from Japan's picturesque Tanegashima Space Center late Tuesday, boosting an innovative science probe into space for a six-year mission to rendezvous with an asteroid, drop a quartet of small landers to its surface and collect soil samples before returning to Earth in...

The role of satellites in Earth observation has increased substantially over the past sixty years since the first meteorological satellite TIROS 1 was launched in 1960. With satellite observations, we are able to probe the Earth system (atmosphere, ocean, and land surface) at increasingly high temp...
