(External press release) Two architectures chosen for Terrestrial Planet Finder (May 10, 2004) - NASA has chosen to fly two separate missions with distinct and complementary architectures to achieve the goals of the Terrestrial Planet Finder, which will take family portraits of stars and their orbiting planets, and to see which might be habitable. Both missions would launch within the next 10 to 15 years. Cosmic magnifying glass reveals new planet (April 13, 2004) - For the first time, astronomers have discovered a planet around a star beyond our solar system using gravitational microlensing, an effect predicted by Albert Einstein in his theory of general relativity.

   Esoteric Astrology planets in general by Steve Kalinowski Permissiongranted for publication on Boudicca s Bard. planets. In astrology  
   http://www.boudicca.de/planets-e.htm
   
   Extractions: In astrology, the planets are the significators of the most importance in the chart. The ancients (excluding the Sumerians because their awareness of celestial bodies that could not be `seen' is an entirely different topic of its own) knew of only the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. These are the ones visible to the eye unaided by technology.

   The Density of the planets. Density is a key number we use when we arefiguring out what kinds of substances and materials make up planets.  
   http://www.adlerplanetarium.org/learn/planets/planetary_geology/density.ssi
   
   Extractions: The bulk density of a world will reflect the relative amounts of the materials the world is made of, regardless of what materials occur at the surface. This is vitally important because when planets and moons form they start to differentiate . This means gravity causes the heavy elements to sink to the center of the world, while light elements float to the surface. Thus, the materials at the surface of a world represent the top-most "scum" and not the true bulk of the planet's composition. The bulk density is the average of everything, inside and out, and is a true indicator for the real composition.

    http://www.adlerplanetarium.org/learn/planets/planetary_geology/crater_dating.ss
    
    Extractions: Meteors fall onto a planet at a relatively regular rate. Small meteors are very common while large basin-forming meteors occur about once every hundred million years. Thus, if a surface has many craters it must have been undisturbed and exposed to bombardment for a long time. A surface with few craters must have been undisturbed and exposed for a short time. In the diagram of North America on the left each spot is a recognized crater (some of which are buried and had to be found by drilling or seismic investigation). There are about 50 or so. Now compare with a just a small area on the Moon in the image to the right. You can see that craters are everywhere. The Earth and Moon are pretty close together compared to the rest of the solar system. They should be hit by the same number of impacts. The big difference between them is that craters on the Earth are constantly being erased by other things - faults, mountains, lava flows, river valleys, seas, houses etc. The Moon has none of these, so its craters are still visible eons later. This is what scientists mean by an old surface. In comparison, North America is a younger, more-active surface.

16. On A General Method Of Expressing The Paths Of Light, And Of The Planets, By The
    An original paper by William Rowan Hamilton, dated 1833.  
    http://www.maths.tcd.ie/pub/HistMath/People/Hamilton/LightPlanets/LightPlanets.h
    
    Extractions: Vol. I, 1833, pp. 795-826.] By such steps, then, it has become an established theorem, fundamental in optical science, that the communication, whether between an illuminating body and a body illuminated, or between an object seen and a beholding eye, is effected by the gradual but very rapid passage of some thing, or influence, or state, called light, from the luminous or visible body, along mathematical or physical lines, usually called rays , and found to be, under the most common circumstances, exactly or nearly straight. Another early and important observation, was that of the broken or refracted lines of communication, between an object in water and an eye in air, and generally between a point in one ordinary medium and a point in another. A valuable series of experiments on such refraction was made and recorded by Ptolemy; but it was not till long afterwards that the law was discovered by Snellius. He found that if two lengths, in a certain ratio or proportion determined by the natures of the two media, be measured, from the point of breaking, or of bending, on the refracted ray and on the incident ray prolonged, these lengths have one common projection on the refracting surface, or on its tangent plane. This law of ordinary refraction has since been improved by Newton's discovery of the different refrangibility of the differently coloured rays; and has been applied to explain and to calculate the apparent elevation of the stars, produced by the atmosphere of the earth.

T HIS PAGE is intended to guide members of the general public to NASA/NSSDC data and services most likely to be of interest to the non-researcher/scientist segment of the internet community. Our Role T HE National Aeronautics Space Administration (NASA) carries out its functions through several offices. NASA's Office of Space Sciences sponsors the National Space Science Data Center (NSSDC). NSSDC is primarily responsible for the archiving of space science data from past, present, and future NASA missions. We serve the science community and the general public in areas related to the space sciences (astrophysics and astronomy, solar physics, space plasma physics, lunar and planetary science). N SSDC is not intended as, nor is it, an encyclopedic source of information about NASA, its space activities, or space science in general. We provide data, and such information as we happen to have. There are many alternative sources of information about NASA, its activities, and space; several of these are identified below. Access to NSSDC's online WWW files, data, and information is free; nominal charges are made for dissemination of data on media, as, for instance, NSSDC's Planetary Images CD-ROM. Photo Gallery
