Trade Studies Towards an Australian Indigenous Space Launch System
TRADE STUDIES TOWARDS AN AUSTRALIAN INDIGENOUS SPACE LAUNCH SYSTEM A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Engineering by Gordon P. Briggs B.Sc. (Hons), M.Sc. (Astron) School of Engineering and Information Technology, University College, University of New South Wales, Australian Defence Force Academy January 2010 Abstract During the project Apollo moon landings of the mid 1970s the United States of America was the pre-eminent space faring nation followed closely by only the USSR. Since that time many other nations have realised the potential of spaceflight not only for immediate financial gain in areas such as communications and earth observation but also in the strategic areas of scientific discovery, industrial development and national prestige. Australia on the other hand has resolutely refused to participate by instituting its own space program. Successive Australian governments have preferred to obtain any required space hardware or services by purchasing off-the-shelf from foreign suppliers. This policy or attitude is a matter of frustration to those sections of the Australian technical community who believe that the nation should be participating in space technology. In particular the provision of an indigenous launch vehicle that would guarantee the nation independent access to the space frontier. It would therefore appear that any launch vehicle development in Australia will be left to non- government organisations to at least define the requirements for such a vehicle and to initiate development of long-lead items for such a project. It is therefore the aim of this thesis to attempt to define some of the requirements for a nascent Australian indigenous launch vehicle system. -

Retrieving Woomera's Heritage: Recovering Lost Examples of the Material Culture of Australian Space Activities
Kerrie Dougherty Retrieving Woomera's heritage: recovering lost examples of the material culture of Australian space activities Introduction Woomera Rocket Range. Once it was a name to conjure with, carrying all the mystique of Cold War secrecy coupled with the excitement of space exploration. Yet today, the site where Australia joined the 'space club', where both Britain and Europe made their first attempts at developing an independent launch capability, is largely abandoned and virtually forgotten by younger generations ofAustralians, who associate Woomera only with a controversial US military tracking stationI and, most recently, an equally controversial detention centre for illegal immigrants.2 Established in 1947 as the long-range weapons test facility of the Anglo-Australian Joint Project, Woomera was born out of Britain's Cold War desire to develop its own missile systems and nuclear deterrent. Unable to test such weapons adequately within the narrow confines of the United Kingdom and its surrounding waters, Britain sought a secure test range within the Commonwealth and ultimately selected a location in the remote outback of South Australia which offered huge tracts of virtually uninhabited desert over which to fly missiles, drop bombs and, later (though this was not immediately in the minds of the initial developers), launch rockets into space. Woomera, at its greatest extent, was the largest overland weapons test range in the Western world, and - at one point - the busiest. Over the lifetime of the Joint Project (1947-80)3 more than 4000 British, European, American and Australian missiles and rockets and 3000 bombs and other weapons4 were launched and tested there, for both military and civilian purposes (Figure 1). -
Heracles and the Foundings of Sparta and Rome
Heracles and the Foundings of Sparta and Rome A Thesis by Nicholas Granitz Advised by Dr. Edith Foster Assisted by Drs. Burkett and Levithan In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts and the Ashbrook Statesmanship Thesis and Honors Capstone Project Ashland University, Ashland, Ohio 2011 Submitted November 29th, 2011 Nicholas Granitz Abstract This thesis finds that both the Spartans and the Romans consciously adopted Heracles as a model for their societies. This adoption is seen both through their historical actions and, especially, in their founding myths, which identify the city’s founders with Heracles. Although the argument relies on previous scholarly work interpreting the character of Heracles, several connections, especially those in the Sparta chapter, are original arguments for Heracles’ relevance in founding mythology. A close analysis of the Twelve Labors of Heracles is the foundation for my arguments. The analysis of Sparta relies on the works of Tyrtaeus, Herodotus, Thucydides, Xenophon, and Plutarch. The analysis of Rome relies on the works of Fabius Pictor, Virgil, Livy, and Plutarch. Secondary sources were also important, especially the writings of G. Karl Galinsky, whose work is influential throughout the thesis. 2 Nicholas Granitz Table of Contents Introduction 04 Chapter One: Heracles 07 Chapter Two: Sparta and Heracles 37 Chapter Three: Rome and Hercules 55 Conclusion 71 Works Cited 77 I am indebted to Dr. Edith Foster, Dr. Chris Burkett, and my family and friends for making the completion of this thesis possible. Thank you. 3 Nicholas Granitz Introduction Heracles and the Foundings of Sparta and Rome Greek and Roman polytheism was an influential cultural force in the ancient world, ingrained in every facet of ancient life. -

Juno's Peacock
JUNO’S PEACOCK Or the Eyes have it Newsletter of the Wesleyan University Department of Classical Studies Issue 16 Summer 2011 When Argus, the hundred-eyed guard animal (and also the name of Wesleyan’s student newspaper) was killed by Hermes (Jupiter’s hit-man, and the name of Wesleyan’s alternative campus paper), some part of him survived death. His eyes were saved by Juno and set in the tail of her peacock. Argus, you lie low; the light you had in so many eyes is extinguished, And your hundred points of light are now all dark. But Juno saved the eyes, and set them in the feathers of her peacock: She filled its tail with jewels as bright as stars. (Ovid, Metamorphoses 1,720-23) We have had a great response from alumni for the past issues so keep the news coming, to the address listed below or to email ([email protected]).
