United Airlines has pushed its zero-emissions aim even further, investing in hydrogen-electric engines for regional aircraft.
Without relying on carbon offsets, the airline aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 100% by 2050.
United Airlines aims to buy up to 100 new zero-emission hydrogen-electric engines (ZA2000-RJ) through a new equity stake in ZeroAvia, a firm focused on hydrogen-electric aviation solutions.
As early as 2028, the engine might be retrofitted to existing United Express planes.
One possible application is on the CRJ-550, which is the only 50-seat aircraft with first-class and other premium amenities.
United’s CEO, Scott Kirby, said: “Hydrogen-electric engines are one of the most promising paths to zero-emission air travel for smaller aircraft, and this investment will keep United out in front on this important emerging technology.”
He added, “United continues to look for opportunities to not only advance our own sustainability initiatives but also identify and help technologies and solutions that the entire industry can adopt.”
Instead of burning fossil fuels, hydrogen-electric engines employ electricity generated by a chemical process in a fuel cell to power an electric motor.
When the engines are turned on, there are no harmful pollutants or carbon emitted into the atmosphere because no fuel is burnt.
The ZA2000-RJ will be utilised in pairs as a replacement power supply for existing regional aircraft.
United Airlines Ventures has agreed to pursue a conditional purchase agreement for 50 ZeroAvia ZA2000-RJ engines, with an option for another 50, sufficient for up to 50 twin-engine aircraft to be operated by United Express partners once completely completed and certified by regulators as soon as 2028.
ZeroAvia is speeding up development of its ZA2000 engine and will shortly begin ground testing of its ZA600 engine in a 19-seat aircraft, with the goal of putting it into commercial service by 2024.

Often referred to as the final frontier, outer space occupies a strange place in the Western imagination. It functions as both a bastion of the unknown and as a source for hope. Yet, the Western-centric direct engagement with space exploration often reduces space to nothing more than a source for raw materials to finance private companies for the gain of their stockholders. Governments and private companies seek to understand and know what is out there not for some altruistic purpose as the rhetoric might claim—i.e. Planet B, for the benefit of all humankind, inspiration—but for utilitarian value and how the universe might be exploited. There is an entire economy of speculation on the commercial value of asteroids, minerals, or other cosmic bodies, while research into how to have thriving multi-faceted communities in space is lacking. Elon Musk says his Starship will carry 100 people to Mars? Who will those people be and how will they live together on that ship once they reach the planet? Why has this idea been used to gain investors and finances but so little work has been done on the actual social arrangements? This shows the priorities not necessarily of those interested in space exploration, but of those who seek to use space for profit-making. What this appears to mean then is that space exploration is more about benefiting some people while promising that the universe is for all. Rather than following the major space powers and billionaires, envisioning a future in space that encompasses the vast diversity of our planet is essential for a better world.
We see that the values and activities of the exploration of space have come to be predominantly unjust and harmful. From the appropriation of indigenous land to build launch sites and telescopes to the unequal access to and use of low earth orbit, the benefits of space have not been for “all humankind” as the Outer Space Treaty proclaimed. The rules of who gets to benefit from space are just as elitist and privileged as ever. How can all people be part of space exploration without reproducing Earthly injustice?
In 1973, Sun Ra, the visionary Jazz musician, exclaimed that Space is the Place! And I think many of us would agree. Space is both a very real material place and one in which each human gets to imagine it. While outer space has been a source of inspiration for everything from new technologies to social justice and political actions, what it is not, currently, is a place for all peoples. Can space exploration be more of a celebration of life and liberation? I think it can. This begins as many things do—with imagination, inspiration, and community. Space holds dreams of better things, new places, new forms of being and knowing the universe. Looking up at the sky is a human trait. Linking our cultures and ways of life to the sky is something that all cultures, past and present, do. Space isn’t just out there—it is a part of our histories, our cultures, and our daily lives.
Over the course of the 20th century, the exploration of space went from being a fantasy to a reality through the work of scientists, engineers, politicians, writers, thinkers, and dreamers. Different nations, cultures, and peoples had and have very different reasons for exploring space, but this is not reflected in the access and use of space. Every single person on this beautiful planet Earth has a relationship to space, yet only certain types of ideas and visions are popularized. How many peoples from the peripheries see themselves represented in space activities or even in the visions of the future? While there is no clear answer to this and many other questions, what I think is essential is dreaming about space. We must not let our dreams be influenced by other people’s desire for power or profit. There are so many dimensions to think through when it comes to space exploration. We must encourage all imaginations to seek and explore all the possibilities of space. Space is the place, but it is not the final frontier.


On any clear night, a dozen or so artificial satellites can be seen moving slowly across the sky. Looking like slow-moving stars, sometimes as bright as magnitude +2, they take about 10 minutes to travel from horizon to horizon. Satellites are most prominent in the first and last hours of the night, since they are then still clear of the Earth’s shadow. Sometimes they fade suddenly and disappear as the satellite enters the shadow. Generally, Russian satellites tend to orbit south-north or north-south, as they are launched from reasonably high-latitude sites.
Some satellites move together in groups of two or three – possibly giving rise to UFO reports! A few, such as the Hubble Space Telescope and the International Space Station, are distinctly brighter than the rest. The Iridium communication satellites can produce spectacular flashes (popularly called “flares”) when the Sun glints off their shiny surfaces. They briefly shine at magnitude –8 and can even be seen in daylight.
There are several areas in which the amateur can play an important role, ranging from just observing a satellite (noting its optical characteristics such as magnitude, whether it appeared steady or was tumbling), to the specialized art of determining the position of a satellite against the celestial background so that an accurate orbit can be calculated.
Approximately 350 satellites have no orbital data from official sources as they are classified military launches. A handful of amateur space detectives have located, identified and keep regular tabs on such objects. In the last few years it has become possible to observe the superficial structure of the larger satellites using simple, cheap webcams or low-noise commercial surveillance cameras.
South Africa has always been a location of importance to the satellite tracking community on account of it being in the southern hemisphere and also under the flight path of many satellites during the first few hours in orbit.
Further information is available from the Shallow Sky Section.
How to Visually Observe Satellites by Greg Roberts, available as a free PDF download, is an introduction to observing and studying satellites. Written by one of the world’s leading satellite trackers, it covers the basic concepts and even gives advice on the equipment and techniques required for automated satellite tracking.

The latest Intelsat V series of satellites promises greater capacity through the use of advanced technology. Brian Dance reports.
IF ONE PICKS UP a telephone and makes an intercontinental call, the chances are that it will be connected through one of the satellites stationed over the India, Pacific or Atlantic oceans. The demand for international telecommunications has increased enormously during the past few years and increasingly sophisticated satellites have been placed in orbit to provide more and more channels. Most of the satellites currently in use are cylindrical in shape with solar cells on the outside of the body, but future trends are stretched arms so that all of the solar cells are directed towards the sun. These new look satellites will provide even more channels of communication than their predecessors.
About 80% of satellite traffic is for telephone use. Although long distance television signals produce quite an impact in millions of homes, television accounts for only about 2% of the use of global satellite communications. About 15% of the traffic is for data and message transmission. Apart from international communications, satellites are now used for communications across a single country such as Canada, Nigeria, Indonesia, etc.
Satellites are used for conveying television signals to remote areas and it is rather interesting to note that the earth station which received more occasional television transmission in 1975 was any other earth station was at Manaus--a Brazilian rubber port about 1 400 km up the river Amazon!
A regular inter-continental telephone service was first introduced from London to New York in 1927 using a 60 kHz transmitter, but the first trans-Atlantic cable became available in 1956 with 48 speech circuits and provided much better quality and reliability. Reflections from the moon were used to provide a speech link across the U.S.A. in 1956, but our natural satellite is a poor reflector of radio waves and is too far away for low noise wide band signals.
The first artificial communications satellite, Echo 1, was a balloon about 30 m in diameter which was launched in 1960. Its aluminized surface reflected both radio waves and light very well; it formed a very bright object in the sky which has probably been seen by more people than any other man made object. Echo 1 orbited the earth in about two hours and acted as a passive reflector of radio waves so that it could be used to relay signals between Europe and the U.S.A. Echo 2 was rather similar, but the first television transmissions between the U.S.A. and Europe were carried by Telstar 1 in 1962; this satellite had its own transmitter operating on 4170 MHz with a power of 2.25 W. the power being provided by 3 600 solar cells. These and similar satellites had the severe disadvantage that they were visible from any earth station only for a short time--about 20 minutes in the case of Telstar 1--and had to be followed across the sky by the earth station aerials. Complex systems using as many as 50 satellites were proposed so that continuous communications could be maintained, but each earth station would have required at least two aerials so that one could follow the satellite whilst the other searched for the next satellite coming above the horizon.
A much better system was proposed as long ago as 1929 in which satellites in circular orbits 36 000 km above the earth are used; such satellites have orbital periods of about 24 hours, so they can be made to appear stationary from a point on the earth. The early rockets did not have enough power to place a satellite in one of these geosynchronous orbits. In addition, it took time to develop the technology required to enable the satellites to be maneuvered in orbit, etc. Satcom 1 was the first geosynchronous satellite launched in 1963, but all modern communications satellites are geosynchronous.
The International Telecommunications Satellite Organization (INTELSAT) was founded in Washington in 1964 to provide telephone and television communications to all users on a non-discriminatory commercial basis. INTELSAT owns the satellites and leases circuits to numerous countries, but the earth stations are normally owned by the telecommunications authorities in the countries concerned.
The INTELSAT satellites launched up to the present time are known as the I, II, Ill, IV and IVA series, whilst a new type V series is planned for this year. The first INTELSAT I ("Early Bird') could carry only 240 telephone conversations and could communicate with only two earth stations at any time. INTELSAT II ("Blue Bird') had the same capacity, but could operate with several ground stations simultaneously.
The INTELSAT III, IV and IVA vehicles have bodies which are spinning for optimum stability, the rate of spin being of the order of 1 revolution per second. The aerials are placed on a 'de-spun' shelf so that they point in a constant direction. Special lubricants are required for the bearings in the high vacuum of space which can operate over a wide temperature range. Failures occurred in over half of the INTELSAT III spacecraft, but a much greater proportion of the INTELSAT IV and IVA craft have provided the desired performance.
The aerials of the INTELSAT IV satellites include 'global' beams for covering the largest possible area of the earth (including remote islands) and spot beam antennae which provide a 4.5 beam for optimum communication with areas where the traffic density is very high. Each successive type of satellite provides more channels of communication. The main improvement in the IVA-series is the use of directional aerials for the east and west beams so that the same frequencies can be used in both of these beams without mutual interference.
One of the main disadvantages of the cylindrical spin stabilized craft is that only a small proportion of the solar cells on the cylindrical body are facing the sun at any one time. Thus the available power is much smaller than that which could be obtained from a satellite with a similar number of cells which all face the sun. The new INTEL SAT V vehicles will therefore employ three axis body stabilization with the solar cells on extendible arms 'which can be rotated so that all of the cells face the sun at all times. This type of system can provide about three times the power per square meter of solar cells than in a spinning satellite. The new satellites will use the 11 GHz and 14 GHz bands for communications as well as the 4 GHz and 6 GHz bands used by the existing INTELSAT craft.
The contract for the supply of INTELSAT V vehicles was awarded to Aeronutronic Ford (now Ford Aerospace and Communications Corporation) in September 1976 at a cost of $236 million for seven satellites with options on a further eight. Each INSTELSAT V craft will have a capacity of about 12 000 telephone channels and 2 color television channels. The first will be placed over the Atlantic to cater for the very heavy traffic in that region. The second will be a spare for the first, whilst the third is scheduled for the Indian Ocean (including Australian use). It is hoped to use the NASA space shuttles to launch some of these craft, since this should reduce the cost from about $ 25 million to $15 million.
All seven craft are due for launching by May 1981.
The INTELSAT V Atlantic satellites will employ space diversity with shaped beams to the east and west so that Europe and Africa are covered by the east beam and North and South America by the west beam. Thus the 500 MHz wide frequency band will be used twice, as in the current IVA craft. In addition, INTELSAT V will re-use the frequency spectrum a second time for the Northern Hemisphere where the traffic demand is heavy. This will be accomplished by polarizing these additional beams perpendicularly to the normal beams. The simultaneous use of polarization and directional isolation is one of the major technical challenges of INTELSAT V.
The current INTELSAT system employs frequencies in the 6 GHz band for transmission from the earth stations, whilst the satellites transmit in the 4 GHz band. These frequencies and other likely to be used are shown in Table 1.
The bandwidth at the lower frequencies is 500 MHz, but, there is a 3.5 GHz bandwidth in the 19 and 29 GHz bands for the up and down links respectively. In general the use of the bands is shared with terrestrial services and there is a limit to the power which can be used to avoid interference. However, the frequencies of 19.7 21.2 GHz and 29.5-31.0 GHz are to be reserved exclusively for down and up satellite links respectively.
The maximum permitted power in the 4 GHz band is--152 dB W / m2/4 kHz at arrival angles of less than 5' rising to -142 dB W / m^2/ 4 kHz at arrival angles of 25' or more. These values are 2 dB higher in the 11 GHz band, whilst in the shared part of the 20 GHz band it is increased by a further 11 dB, but the latter is specified for a 1 MHz rather than a 4 kHz bandwidth.
The greater available bandwidth and reduced chances of interference makes the use of the higher frequency bands very attractive, but one of the most fundamental obstacles to the use of frequencies above 10 GHz for satellite communications is the degradation of the signal by heavy rain in the vicinity of the receiving station. Rain and precipitation in the atmosphere not only attenuate the signal from a satellite, but cause de-polarization, increased noise and increased interference between terrestrial and satellite systems. Even when 4 GHz signals were being received from the early Telstar satellite, it was noted that the noise level in creased when the receiving station was near heavy rain.
The effects of rain can be overcome by the use of diversity techniques with switching between two or more receiving stations, but this is obviously expensive.
The use of high transmitter power also helps to reduce the effects of rain.
Telemetry and command signals are transmitted to the satellites within the communications band, but outside the communications channels themselves. The INTELSAT IV spacecraft have 223 command channels.
Gravitational fields due to the sun, moon, etc. and variations in the earth's gravitational field cause small movements in the position of a geosynchronous satellite. Solar radiation pressure also produces a small effect which accumulates with time. The drift in the orbit inclination out of the equatorial plane is about 0.8- per year in the case of small inclinations. If uncorrected, the would cause the satellite to move progressively around in a figure of eight. In addition, a satellite is accelerated towards two stable points at 75'E and 105' W due to the non-uniformity of the earth's gravitational field.
When a satellite has moved from its desired position by a certain amount, small thruster jets operated by command signals from the earth cause it to return to the desired position. The gas jets used consist of a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen obtained by admitting liquid hydrazine into a reaction chamber containing a catalyst which causes the liquid to separate into its two constituent elements. Jets can also be used to keep the aerials on the de-spun shelf of existing satellites pointing towards the earth with an accuracy of 0.1 0; the reference direction may be obtained by an infra-red sensor detecting radiation from the earth and from the sun.
Although the use of geosynchronous satellites gives Vise to the problems discussed, it brings many advantages, such as no Doppler shift of the signal frequency, few thermal stress cycles, low radiation environment, low magnetic fields, etc. The earth subtends an angle of about 18 at a geosynchronous satellite; a global beam from the satellite will cover about 4/ 10 of the earth's surface, so ground stations can be linked over great circle distances of up to 17 000 km.
The variation of the signal power level at various points is extremely large. Let us trace the levels which are typical for a television signal being relayed from one amplifier in an earth transmitting station to the output of the amplifier of an earth receiving station.
The signal comes into the transmitter power amplifier at a level of around 1 mW, but is amplified to a level of a few hundred watts before it is fed to the aerial at the centre of one of the giant 30 meter diameter dish aerials.
This dish provides an effective gain of about a million by concentrating the power into a narrow beam; a power of a few hundred megawatts would be required to achieve the same signal level at the satellite if this power were radiated equally in all directions. This signal is attenuated by a factor of about 1 020 during its journey to the satellite, so it arrives at a level of a few picowatts. The satellite aerial provides a gain approaching one hundred and the satellite receiver amplifier a gain of about 100 000, so the signal leaves the receiver at a level of about 100W. Power levels in the circuits from the satellite back to earth are of the order of one million times lower than those in the up path in many cases. The 10 uW signal from the satellite receiver is amplified to a level of about 10 W and fed to an aerial with a directional gain of about 50; the effective power radiated by the satellite is thus around 500 W. This suffers a loss of the order of 10^20 in the down-path, so it arrives at the ground station receiving aerial at a level of about 5 attowatts (1 attowatt = 10^-18W). However, the enormous receiving dish provides a gain of about a million to bring the signal level up to around 5 pW; without such a dish, the signal would be lost in noise. The signal is then amplified in the ground station receiver system so that its power level is brought up to about the lm W level (similar to the level at which it arrived at the power amplifier of the ground station transmitter at the start of the cycle). It is difficult to fully appreciate the enormous range of power levels involved. This range is some 10^26 times or 260dB between the effective power radiated from the transmitting aerial of the earth station and the effective power level at the aerial of the receiving earth station.
A satellite repeater accepts the incoming signal, amplifies it, changes its frequency for the new band and amplifies the power level for re-transmission. Frequency modulation is normally employed for simplicity in both the up and down links, the modulation being identical in each case. In the Intelsat IV craft, the band is divided by a filter into 12 channels of 36 MHz each with a 40 MHz spacing of the centre frequencies.
The incoming signal in the 5.932 to 6.418 GHz region is fed to a tunnel diode amplifier operating at the signal frequency. It is then converted into a 2225 MHz signal for broadband amplification before being converted into a 4 GHz signal which is passed to a travelling wave tube for power amplification. These tubes offer efficiencies of about 30% and require a high voltage supply. There is a four fold redundancy in the electronic systems of a satellite to ensure reliability is high.
Tunnel diode amplifiers are simple and light in weight, but other amplifiers can be used in the receiver circuits of satellites. For example, the European Orbital Test Satellite (OTS) uses a parametric amplifier operating in the 11 and 14 GHz bands instead of a tunnel diode. It seems likely that gallium arsenide (GaAs) field effect transistors will replace tunnel diodes and possibly even travelling wave tubes at frequencies of up to at least 14 GHz.
The design of earth station equipment is very different from that of the circuits in the satellite, since the weight and size of the ground station aerial can be far greater than that of the satellite system. In addition, ample power is readily available at earth stations. The carrier power required from a satellite is approximately inversely proportional to the gain of the earth station aerial in the receiving direction (G,) and directly proportional to the earth station noise temperature (Ts). Thus the factor G,/T, can be used as the figure of merit for an earth station which is conveniently expressed as 10 log,c , (G,/ Ts ) dB r K. This figure of merit is an important parameter of an earth station, since it determines the traffic handling capability. The figure of merit is usually measured by pointing the aerial at a distant radio star so that the noise level may be compared with that of other aerials using the same star. This method is most satisfactory for large aerials, but the moon may be used for smaller 10 meter diameter dishes. For small aerials of up to 8 m diameter, it is more convenient to obtain the figure of merit from the noise temperature and gain.
All standard earth stations in the INTELSAT network must have a high figure of merit, namely 40.7 dB / K. An aerial of at least 26 m diameter is required to obtain this figure, but a 30 m dish is normally used to give more flexibility in the positioning of low noise receivers by using longer wave guides with higher losses. The total weight of a '5th generation' standard aerial for INTEL SAT use is about 300 000kg and the overall height some 28m.
The satellites are not quite stationary. A fixed antenna is unsatisfactory, since the aerial beam angle is narrow (about 0.2c at 6 GHz for a 30 m aerial). A servo system is usually used to control the movement of the aerial, the error signal being obtained by using a beacon signal emitted by the satellite. Most aerials are fully steerable and can be moved to operate with any satellite.

Some of the very early earth station receivers employed master amplifiers in the first stage, but these amplifiers cannot operate over the wide bandwidth used in the INTELSAT system. A very low noise amplifier is essential to handle a low power signal over a 500 MHz band width.
Parametric amplifiers cooled to about 15 K are usually employed. Such an amplifier can provide a gain of some 30dB with an effective noise temperature of about 15°K. It may be followed with a tunnel diode amplifier giving a gain of about 10 dB or with a travelling wave tube amplifier. Continuously operating cryogenic cooling devices using gaseous helium have been developed in which the helium is re-circulated in a closed system.
Although the receiver noise temperature is about 15 K by losses in the feeders, by 15 K by side lobe pick-up and by 25' K by atmospheric absorption. Thus the total effective noise temperature is about 70'K. Each earth station receives a carrier from every other earth station with which it wishes to communicate. The number of carriers sent from stations is reduced to a minimum by using a single carrier for conveying signals to various destinations. Thus the number of transmitted carriers is lower than the number of signals received by various stations.
EARTH STATION TRANSMITTERS
The power required from an earth station transmitter depends on the aerial gain, on the geographical position and on the gain of the satellite system. The latter will depend on whether global or spot antennae are being employed and on the number of channels available. The required power can be obtained at the earth station by using narrow band transmitters (some tens of MHz) using klystrons or a wide band transmitter using travelling wave tubes (500 MHz bandwidth). If klystrons are used, each carrier is amplified to a suitable level in a separate transmitter and the outputs of the transmitters are combined before the signals are fed to the aerial.
This arrangement is used mainly in stations operating with relatively few carriers. The initial cost and the running costs are fairly small with klystrons, but long breaks are required to change frequencies.
Large stations operating with many carriers favor travelling wave tubes. The carriers are combined at low power and then are amplified by the wide band transmitter before being passed to the aerial. The non linearity of the travelling wave tube produces some intermodulation products at the output and these must be limited by operating the tube some 10 dB below its capability to prevent interference with other signals.
Travelling wave tubes are more expensive and less efficient than klystrons in these circuits, but their wide band capability is very convenient.
THERE is a rapidly growing demand for communications via 'domestic' satellites across a single country. Signals from satellites used for this purpose can be concentrated within the boundaries of a nation so smaller earth station aerials can be employed than for international communications where the beam energy must be more widely dispersed. For example, 10 m diameter antennae give Gr / T s values of around 31 dB / ° K, whilst 10 m antennae of Gr /T2 about 26dB / ° K are being delivered in the USA for receiving only television signals. Antennas of 2 to 3 m in diameter with a figure of merit of 14 to 20 dB /°K can be used in remote areas for providing 12 voice channels for emergency use or on oil drilling rigs, etc.
Telephone companies cannot charge such high rates for inland calls as they do for international calls, so the viability of domestic satellites is more severely limited by costs than that of international communications systems. However, domestic systems are now well established in countries such as Canada whose Telesat system provides television and voice communication throughout the country, the USSR (mainly television), the USA, which has three systems provided by three different companies and various other countries.
Some countries, such as Spain and Mexico, have leased INTELSAT circuits for their domestic use, but the charges are high enough to make it more economical for most large countries to have their own system. In some cases a group of countries close together can jointly own a system.
COMPARISON WITH CABLES
Satellite communication links are generally cheaper than long distance cables operating under the ocean, but the cables have a minimum expected life of 25 years against 7 for a satellite. It is uneconomic to connect remote islands by cable, so satellite or radio links are used.
Satellites are essential for carrying high bandwidth signals (like television) over intercontinental distances.
The new TAT-6 cable laid across the Atlantic can carry 4 000 voice channels, but satellites of the IVA series can carry 6 000 speech channels and some domestic satellites even more. Cables may be more vulnerable to enemy attack and communications are vital in war.
A peculiarity of a satellite link arises from the fact that the signal must travel rather over 36 000 km to the satellite and a similar distance back to the earth. Thus there is a delay of about a quarter of a second before the signal reaches its destination and a delay of at least half a second before any response reaches the sender. If a signal received by a satellite was transmitted to another satellite before being returned to earth, the delay of a second or so before any response could be returned to a person might be unacceptable in ordinary telephone conversations. The longest delay on sub-oceanic cables is about 1/16 second.
Satellite communications are one of the most useful products of the huge investment in space technology.
They have radically changed the pattern of world communications and confer outstanding benefits on the lives of ordinary people. It seems likely that satellites able to handle 100 000 telephone circuits will be developed without any great increase in the satellite mass. Improvements in frequency re-use, 3 axis body stabilization, high efficiency solar cells, on board switching, hybrid modulators, etc. will provide great improvements. The life of satellites is partly limited by the life of the batteries used to provide power when the vehicle is eclipsed by the earth, but new nickel-hydrogen cells are showing great promise for this application.

Download Google Maps Update and Explore Space with its Planets
Google Maps has added a new feature: it allows users to explore the Solar System. Those who are curious enough to understand the mysteries of the universe can now explore planets, moon or the International Space Station.
Zoom in on the planets and learn about their surface
The new feature added by Google has been created with the help of the famous Cassini spacecraft. The spacecraft spent over 20 years in space and over the summer it burned up while in Saturn’s atmosphere. Cassini has sent over the years vast amounts of images, information and many videos of planets and their moon.
Almost a half million pictures were sent to scientists, making it possible for them to learn more and reconstruct these unexplored worlds. Google announced the new feature for Google Maps announcing that everyone can now access images of planets and moons for free from their computer.
This is an extraordinary opportunity not only for scientists but also for the future generations. Enthusiasts can scan the moon’s craters, the methane lakes of Saturn’s largest room: Titan, search for different locations in space and learn about their surfaces. The feature also allows for the 3D images to rotate, allowing the user to see where the sun is hitting at that particular time and what is there on the dark side.
Learn about Mars
Google Map users cannot perform location search in space, but they can zoom in on the planets or the moons and find out more about the different locations presented. For example, when users zoom in on Mars, it is possible to click on different regions and learn more about their features. Everything you dreamed about to know about space is just a click away.
It is definitely one of the most impressive features of Google Maps so far.

Last night, residents of Amherst, MA reported seeing a diamond-shaped UFO, roughly the size of two or three cars, that flew more slowly than do planes. It was illuminated by dim white lights. (Story.)
What are our options here? Alien invasion (which would explain John Kerry)? Secret military plane, singular? Hoverboards? Small group of planes that appeared to be a single object?
Commercial aircraft usually move at several hundred miles per hour. Cessnas and other light aircraft can get airborne around 55 knots (63 mph); commercial aircraft take off around 150 mph. You can definitely get a plane to be airborne when it travels at the speed of a car on a highway; it’s just not the planes that people fly on to get to California, nor the speed that those planes move in order to get people to their destinations in a timely manner.
If the thing is visible because of its own lights, it could have lights that are in an odd pattern but do not necessarily illuminate the entire aircraft. Likewise, it could be a group of Cessnas or Pipers, each of which had illumination, grouped together; in such a configuration, they may look like a single, oddly-shaped plane.
Other possibility: test flight of advanced military aircraft. Sorry, conspiracy theorists, alien loves, and Holocaust-deniers, but the military likes having American pilots in highly-advanced aircraft, and likes Americans to be protected with the most advanced technology around. It also likes people to not know that they are being protected with this stuff, because then our enemies don’t know about it. If you think it’s aliens, you aren’t going to spill to the Chinese, Russians, North Koreans, or whomever about our fancy new toys that can kick the butts of their not-so-fancy toys.
Yeah, I’m a killjoy. There’s aircraft out there – called Cessnas or Pipers – that can fly close to the ground at a relatively slow rate of speed. Planes flying together can give the illusion of one big plane. Unless E.T. drops out of the cockpit, it’s nothing special.


Global Earth Observing System of Systems Wins 10 Year Mandate
BRUSSELS, Belgium, February 17, 2005 (ENS) - At the Third Earth Observation Summit here Wednesday representatives of 54 nations and over 40 international organizations endorsed a 10 year plan that details concrete steps towards comprehensive cooperation for Earth observation.
The Global Earth Observing System of Systems (GEOSS) brings together many of the nations and agencies that have been using Earth observation tools independently. In the past, cooperation has been limited, but now with many countries and organizations agreeing to work together to collect and share data from individual systems, the benefits of Earth observation are expected to multiply and will be available to citizens around the globe.
"It is very fitting that we are today, on the date of entry into force of the Kyoto Protocol, launching a system that will greatly enhance our understanding of the environment and will hopefully help us to do what we can to improve it," said European Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas, who delivered the opening address to the summit.
Gaining a better understanding of climate change trends and their impact by pooling scientific information is a key interest of GEOSS participants. This spring the European Space Agency plans to launch CryoSat as the first satellite in the agency’s Living Planet Programme a mission that responds to the issue of climate change and its effect on the Earth’s polar ice masses.
A precision radar altimeter has been designed to determine rates of change in the thickness of polar ice sheets and floating sea ice. This data will help improve understanding of the relationship between the Earth’s ice cover and global climate.
GEOSS will be a system of systems such as the European Space Agency that now exist or will be created in the future. It will supplement but not supplant each system’s own mandates and governance arrangements.
The GEOSS 10 year agreement will provide the overall conceptual and organizational framework for global Earth observation to meet users' needs. It will provide the institutional mechanisms for ensuring the coordination and strengthening of existing global Earth observation systems. GEOSS will build on the success of Earth observation research programs, and facilitate the practical use of these systems.
Dimas said, "Collecting and managing observation data is an expensive business, so acting globally and sharing the information freely - between stakeholders, between governments, between institutions and with the public - ensures that scarce resources are used as efficiently as possible, reducing overlap and double-funding."
"By adopting an implementation plan for the GEOSS, we have accomplished the first phase of realizing our goal of developing a comprehensive, integrated and sustained Earth Observation System so that the world can better predict weather and climate, prepare for natural hazards and protect people and property. Today's action is a true milestone," said U.S. Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez, who is heading the U.S. delegation to the Earth Observation Summit.
Lautenbacher is one of four international co-chairs of the Group on Earth Observations. Also co-chairing are Achilleas Mitsos, director general for research, European Commission, which hosted the Brussels summit; Tetuhisa Shirakawa, deputy minister of education, culture, sports, science and technology, Japan; and Dr. Rob Adam, director-general of science and technology, South Africa.
"The tsunami disaster has shown us just how important Earth observation can be, by providing invaluable data to support the immediate humanitarian response and now reconstruction," said European Research Commissioner Janez Potocnik.
"Global problems need global solutions," Potocnik said. "By working together across the world to interlink all our earth observation systems, whether in space, in the air or on the ground, we will be giving ourselves the instruments to tackle these problems more effectively."
NOAA has been monitoring the Earth's environment for more than 30 years with tens of thousands of sensors in more than 100 observing systems from satellites to marine sonars to human observations of marine mammal populations. As part of its participation in the Global Earth Observing System of Systems, NOAA has developed a new website that provides a comprehensive description of all of its observing systems. http://www.nosa.noaa.gov/
As part of its GEOSS effort, the European Commission Wednesday launched a dedicated Environmental Information System based on satellite and computer mapping technologies. This tool, developed by the Joint Research Centre, supports EU development activities in Africa, by providing information on food needs, helping the European Commission Humanitarian Office provide aid in the aftermath of natural disasters and other emergencies, and assisting long term development through sustainable management of natural resources.
As the world’s largest donor of development aid, the European Union has, over the last decade of research, used satellite imagery, maps, statistics and computer models to address diverse environmental monitoring issues. In the process, strong links have been established with UN agencies, with counterparts throughout the developing world, as well as space agencies and other data providers.
The European Commission is using this experience to create an Environmental Information System for Africa.
Africa has 17 percent of the world’s forest, at least 20 percent of its grassland and 11 percent of wetlands. Changes, such as the burning of much of the grassland each year, affect Africa and the global environment, especially the climate.
Environmental measurements help determine Africa’s role in the global climate system, and highlight how climate change will affect the ecosystem services the poorest rely upon.
The European Commission and European Space Agency have launched an initiative to establish, by 2008, a European capacity for global monitoring for environment and security (GMES) to support the EU’s political goals regarding sustainable development and global governance.
"It is the developing countries that have the most to gain from the setting up of a global Earth Observation system," said Rob Adam, South Africa’s director general of the Department of Science and Technology and GEO co-chair. "The lack of such makes it terribly difficult to adequately deal with the developing world’s economic, environmental and humanitarian challenges."
"In developing nations, many of which lack strong traditions in cartography and mapping," Adam said, "Earth observation technologies have proven essential tools for addressing public policy issues such as deforestation, urban planning, agricultural production and environmental assessment."


The Los Angeles Police Department released video late Sunday showing officers rescuing a bleeding pilot just minutes before a train struck with his jet stalled on the tracks.
The accident happened about 2:00 p.m. Pacoima is a city in the state of California. According to Fox 5 San Diego, a Cessna 172 single-engine plane landed on Metrolink Antelope Valley line train tracks. Rescue teams arrived on the site seconds before a speeding train collided with the plane, and managed to extract the plane’s pilot.

Management of TAP Air Portugal has taken delivery of its first A321 Long Range, becoming the first airline in the world to operate the A330neo and the A321 Long Range simultaneously.
A statement issued in Accra by the Airline said the A321 Long Range, was the first TAP narrow body aircraft operating transatlantic routes, offering the premium comfort of a long-haul aircraft.
It said it had 16 executive seats, four of which were single seats, and offers more space in economy class, equivalent to that available on the A330neo.
The statement quoted Mr Antonoaldo Neves, TAP’s CEO as saying: “This model is equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including modern full-size executive seats, more ergonomic and spacious economy-class seats, on-board entertainment and connectivity system that allows free and unlimited written messages.”
The new aircraft, which is named after the Portuguese philosopher and poet, Agostinho da Silva, has the capacity of 168 passengers and expands the airline’s medium and long-haul operation in combination with the A330neo.
“The A321 Long Range is essential for TAP’s expansion, and its range is enough to explore the markets of North America, South America and Africa, which results in a perfect match with the A330neo.
In North America, it allows, for example, to explore markets on the east coast, such as New York, Boston, Montreal or Washington. In Brazil, this aircraft helps us to explore new markets in the Northeast and can complement our services in several cities, such as Recife, Natal, Fortaleza or Salvador,” he added.
He said this was the first of 14 aircrafts of this model, committed to Airbus, to arrive at the Airline.
TAP will receive a total of 37 aircrafts by the end of this year and 71 by 2025, thus, becoming one of the most modern fleets in the world.
This renewal and growth of the fleet has allowed TAP to announce new destinations and more frequencies.

However, cultivating the crop won’t be easy as temperatures on the lunar surface can go over 100 degrees Celsius (202 degrees Fahrenheit) in the day and drop to minus 100 degrees at night.
CHINA hopes to be growing potatoes on the dark side of the Moon within the next 100 days, it’s been revealed.
When its Chang’e 4 spacecraft touched down on the lunar surface it was carrying a £1m airtight container designed for growing crops in shocking conditions.
The 18cm high aluminium alloy cylinder – called a moon surface micro-ecological circle – contains silkworm eggs and seeds for potatoes and cress.
Chinese scientists now hope both plants will root and sprout in the container, producing the first flower ever grown on the space rock.
They hope to see the results towards the end of a 100-day experimental period, according to the country’s space agency.
Last night, they announced their first breakthrough publishing a picture of cotton seed, bought up on Chang’e 4 actually growing.
China Daily tweeted: “The latest test photo shows a cotton seed brought to the moon by China’s Chang’e 4 probe has sprouted.”
MOTHS TO HATCH IN SPACE
Meanwhile, the silkworm eggs will also hopefully hatch into moths, reports the SCMP.
However, cultivating the crops won’t be easy as temperatures on the moon’s surface can soar to 100 degrees Celsius (202 degrees Fahrenheit) in the day and drop to minus 100 degrees at night.
Earlier today China has released incredible footage of its historic touchdown on the icy far side of the moon.

On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Fox News National Correspondent Bill Melugin reported that the FAA has imposed a temporary flight restriction for the area around the bridge where thousands of migrants are congregating near Del Rio, TX, and as a result, Fox can’t use its drone to capture aerial footage of the situation around the bridge. Melugin also said they’ve used the drone around the border for seven months and it hasn’t been a problem until now.
Melugin said, “We’ve been using our drone to show everybody these remarkable pictures. … We just learned that the FAA has put out a temporary flight restriction, a TFR, in the area immediately around the port of entry where that bridge is. What does that mean? It means our drone can no longer fly and show those images. It’s a two-week TFR, and according to the FAA, it’s for special security reasons. We’ve reached out to the FAA to get a little clarification on what the heck that means. The timing on this, the location, a little bit curious. I just want to point out, Fox News has been at the border for the better part of seven months now. We’ve been using the drone the entire time. It’s never been an issue. All of a sudden, the last 24 hours, we start showing these images at this bridge and a TFR goes up. We can no longer fly.” Read the rest at breitbart.com.

Leman, this is the answer to your question and to the rest of us Malaysians:
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Malaysia Airlines said Friday it will stick to its order of six Airbus A380s as it expects global travel to pick up by late next year.
Newly appointed Managing Director Tengku Azmil Zahruddin said the superjumbos, due to be delivered from 2011, will be used for long-haul routes such as London, Sydney and Armsterdam.
The airline is also taking delivery of 35 Boeing B737-800 aircraft from the fourth quarter of 2010 to replace its existing single-aisle planes. Its fleet renewal plan aims to lower costs for fuel, engineering and maintenance, Azmil said.
"Our core network is in Asia, Middle East and Australia ... but we do have a lot of traffic coming in from Europe. The A380s will allow us to do a lot more than what we are able to do today," he told a news conference.
Some airlines are reviewing their A380 orders as the slump in global travel undermines the profitability of flying the superjumbo.
The International Air Transport Association has predicted global airline losses will swell to $11 billion this year. It predicted a 2010 loss of $3.8 billion, and doesn't expect the industry to turn a profit until 2011 at the earliest.
Azmil said 2011 will be good timing for Malaysia Airlines to take delivery of the A380 given the expected industry upturn.
The carrier is also studying plans to buy a new fleet of wide-bodied aircraft to cater to future growth but has not yet made any decision, he said.
Azmil, who joined the airline in 2005, took over the helm from Idris Jala following Jala's appointment as a Cabinet minister in late August.
He said the carrier plans to further cut costs by 700 million ringgit ($202 million) this year. Bookings have been promising but yields — a measure of revenue per seat — remained soft, he said. The carrier has cut capacity by 12% in the first half this year and recently withdrew from New York and Stockholm routes.
Malaysia Airlines returned to profitability in the second quarter, thanks to a large gain on derivatives contracts, but still suffered an operationg loss due to a decline in sales.
It posted a net profit of 876 million ringgit ($250 million) for April-June, rebounding from a loss of 695 million ringgit ($199 million) in the previous quarter and up from 34 million ringgit ($10 million) in the same quarter a year earlier.

Sometime after 2030, there will a team of astronauts who embark on a one-of-a-kind mission — they’ll be going to Mars. The mission itself will last about three years and introduce humankind to a part of the universe that has never been intimately explored.
One of the most interesting aspects is that for the first time, there’s a big chance that several of the astronauts would be females (instead of maybe one or two). Glamour sat down with four female astronauts who are all equally experienced to take on the Mars mission.
Tracy Caldwell Dyson, an astronaut who lived at the International Space Station for six months, explained her experience of seeing Earth from space: “I’m thrilled for the women who are coming after me. I can’t wait to see where they go and what they do.”
As Nicole Aunapu Mann, Anne McClain, Jessica Meir, and Christina Hammock Koch all work towards potentially scoring a seat on the Mars mission, they also reflect on the hardships they would face — like leaving behind kids who will grow up while they’re gone.
But, as McClain stated to Glamour, “I can’t recall ever not wanting to be an astronaut.”
