Duke, Director of the Solar System Exploration Division of the NASA Johnson Space Center. At a meeting of the Lunar and Planetary Sample Team (LAPST), Dr. Duke (at the time also Science Director of the Office of Exploration, NASA Headquarters) suggested that future lunar geoscience activities had not been planned systematically and that geoscience goals for the lunar base program were not articulated well. LAPST is a panel that advises NASA on lunar sample allocations and also serves as an advocate for lunar science within the planetary science community. LAPST took it upon itself to organize some formal geoscience planning for a lunar base by creating a document that outlines the types of missions and activities that are needed to understand the Moon and its geologic history. -

Obregon, Built By Notional Steel & Shipbuilding U.S. Navy Ship Overhaul Market JULY 16, 1985 - An Update - (SEE PAGE 4) INTRODUCING THE EPOCH MARK D SERIES A new era in product oil carrier design. Hitachi Zosen has developed the EPOCH MARK n series which has a unique structure not found on conventional ship designs. Revolutionary in concept, the MARKII incorporates a unidirectional girder system combined with a complete double hull structure. While a ship's hull is customarily designed with a grillage of longitudinal and transverse members for strength, this system uses only longitudinal members in a double hull to provide sufficient strength. This unidirectional girder system results in unprecedented structural simplicity and completely flush surfaced cargo tank interior. MARKII product oil carriers provide unrivaled advantages in performances over more conventional designs. The EPOCH MARK n series is available in 40, 60 and 80 thousands dwt designs. And has won the approval of leading classification societies (ABS, BV, LR, NK, NV). At present The Superior Performance of the EPOCH MARK n Series: many worldwide patents are under application. Conventional EPOCH MARK Hitachi Zosen is also expanding this new structural system for the development of combination cargo carriers such as PROBO or Tank configuration OBO carriers other than oil tankers.

Energy Panacea or Pipe Dream? Bilal U. Haq, National Science Foundation, Division of Ocean Science, Arlington, VA 22230 ABSTRACT Recent interest in methane hydrates has resulted from the recognition that they may play important roles in the global carbon cycle and rapid climate change through emissions of methane from marine sediments and permafrost into the atmosphere, and in causing mass failure of sediments and structural changes on the continental slope. Their presumed large volumes are also consid- ered to be a potential source for future exploitation of methane as a resource. Natural gas hydrates occur widely on continental slope and rise, stabilized in place by high hydrostatic pressure and frigid bottom-temperature condi- tions. Change in these conditions, Figure 1. This seismic profile, over the landward side of Blake Ridge, crosses a salt diapir; the profile has either through lowering of sea level or been processed to show reflection strength. The prominent bottom simulating reflector (BSR) swings increase in bottom-water temperature, upward over the diapir because of the higher conductivity of the salt. Note the very strong reflections of may trigger the following sequence of gas accumulations below the gas-hydrate stability zone and the “blanking” of energy above it. Bright events: dissociation of the hydrate at its Spots along near-vertical faults above the diapir represent conduits for gas venting. -
