  • Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii
    RAILWAY EMPLOYEE RECORDS FOR COLORADO VOLUME III By Gerald E. Sherard (2005) When Denver’s Union Station opened in 1881, it saw 88 trains a day during its gold-rush peak. When passenger trains were a popular way to travel, Union Station regularly saw sixty to eighty daily arrivals and departures and as many as a million passengers a year. Many freight trains also passed through the area. In the early 1900s, there were 2.25 million railroad workers in America. After World War II the popularity and frequency of train travel began to wane. The first railroad line to be completed in Colorado was in 1871 and was the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line between Denver and Colorado Springs. A question we often hear is: “My father used to work for the railroad. How can I get information on Him?” Most railroad historical societies have no records on employees. Most employment records are owned today by the surviving railroad companies and the Railroad Retirement Board. For example, most such records for the Union Pacific Railroad are in storage in Hutchinson, Kansas salt mines, off limits to all but the lawyers. The Union Pacific currently declines to help with former employee genealogy requests. However, if you are looking for railroad employee records for early Colorado railroads, you may have some success. The Colorado Railroad Museum Library currently has 11,368 employee personnel records. These Colorado employee records are primarily for the following railroads which are not longer operating. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad (AT&SF) Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad employee records of employment are recorded in a bound ledger book (record number 736) and box numbers 766 and 1287 for the years 1883 through 1939 for the joint line from Denver to Pueblo.

  • Glossary Glossary
    Glossary Glossary Albedo A measure of an object’s reflectivity. A pure white reflecting surface has an albedo of 1.0 (100%). A pitch-black, nonreflecting surface has an albedo of 0.0. The Moon is a fairly dark object with a combined albedo of 0.07 (reflecting 7% of the sunlight that falls upon it). The albedo range of the lunar maria is between 0.05 and 0.08. The brighter highlands have an albedo range from 0.09 to 0.15. Anorthosite Rocks rich in the mineral feldspar, making up much of the Moon’s bright highland regions. Aperture The diameter of a telescope’s objective lens or primary mirror. Apogee The point in the Moon’s orbit where it is furthest from the Earth. At apogee, the Moon can reach a maximum distance of 406,700 km from the Earth. Apollo The manned lunar program of the United States. Between July 1969 and December 1972, six Apollo missions landed on the Moon, allowing a total of 12 astronauts to explore its surface. Asteroid A minor planet. A large solid body of rock in orbit around the Sun. Banded crater A crater that displays dusky linear tracts on its inner walls and/or floor. 250 Basalt A dark, fine-grained volcanic rock, low in silicon, with a low viscosity. Basaltic material fills many of the Moon’s major basins, especially on the near side. Glossary Basin A very large circular impact structure (usually comprising multiple concentric rings) that usually displays some degree of flooding with lava. The largest and most conspicuous lava- flooded basins on the Moon are found on the near side, and most are filled to their outer edges with mare basalts.

  • Martian Crater Morphology
    ANALYSIS OF THE DEPTH-DIAMETER RELATIONSHIP OF MARTIAN CRATERS A Capstone Experience Thesis Presented by Jared Howenstine Completion Date: May 2006 Approved By: Professor M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Professor Christopher Condit, Geology Professor Judith Young, Astronomy Abstract Title: Analysis of the Depth-Diameter Relationship of Martian Craters Author: Jared Howenstine, Astronomy Approved By: Judith Young, Astronomy Approved By: M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Approved By: Christopher Condit, Geology CE Type: Departmental Honors Project Using a gridded version of maritan topography with the computer program Gridview, this project studied the depth-diameter relationship of martian impact craters. The work encompasses 361 profiles of impacts with diameters larger than 15 kilometers and is a continuation of work that was started at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, Texas under the guidance of Dr. Walter S. Keifer. Using the most ‘pristine,’ or deepest craters in the data a depth-diameter relationship was determined: d = 0.610D 0.327 , where d is the depth of the crater and D is the diameter of the crater, both in kilometers. This relationship can then be used to estimate the theoretical depth of any impact radius, and therefore can be used to estimate the pristine shape of the crater. With a depth-diameter ratio for a particular crater, the measured depth can then be compared to this theoretical value and an estimate of the amount of material within the crater, or fill, can then be calculated. The data includes 140 named impact craters, 3 basins, and 218 other impacts. The named data encompasses all named impact structures of greater than 100 kilometers in diameter.

  • Small, Young Volcanic Deposits Around the Lunar Farside Craters Rosseland, Bolyai, and Roche
    44th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (2013) 2024.pdf SMALL, YOUNG VOLCANIC DEPOSITS AROUND THE LUNAR FARSIDE CRATERS ROSSELAND, BOLYAI, AND ROCHE. J. H. Pasckert1, H. Hiesinger1, and C. H. van der Bogert1. 1Institut für Planetologie, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität, Wilhelm-Klemm-Str. 10, 48149 Münster, Germany. jhpasckert@uni- muenster.de Introduction: To understand the thermal evolu- mare basalts on the near- and farside. This gives us the tion of the Moon it is essential to investigate the vol- opportunity to investigate the history of small scale canic history of both the lunar near- and farside. While volcanism on the lunar farside. the lunar nearside is dominated by mare volcanism, the farside shows only some isolated mare deposits in the large craters and basins, like the South Pole-Aitken basin or Tsiolkovsky crater [e.g., 1-4]. This big differ- ence in volcanic activity between the near- and farside is of crucial importance for understanding the volcanic evolution of the Moon. The extensive mare volcanism of the lunar nearside has already been studied in great detail by numerous authors [e.g., 4-8] on the basis of Lunar Orbiter and Apollo data. New high-resolution data obtained by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and the SELENE Terrain Camera (TC) now allow us to investigate the lunar farside in great detail. Basaltic volcanism of the lunar nearside was active for almost 3 Ga, lasting from ~3.9-4.0 Ga to ~1.2 Ga before present [5]. In contrast to the nearside, most eruptions of mare deposits on the lunar farside stopped much earlier, ~3.0 Ga ago [9].

    Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics Stanford University Stanford, California THE CONTROL AND USE OF LIBRATION-POINT SATELLITES by Robert W. Farquhar SUDAAR NO. 350 July 1968 Prepared for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Under Grant NsG 133-61 '3 t ABSTRACT This study is primarily concerned with satellite station-keeping in the vicinity of the unstable collinear libration points, L1 and L2. Station-keeping problems at other libration points, including an "isosce- les-triangle point," are also treated, but to a lesser degree. A detailed analysis of the translation-control problem for a satel- lite in the vicinity of a collinear point is presented. Simple linear feedback control laws are formulated, and stability conditions are deter- mined for both constant and periodic coefficient systems. It was found that stability could be achieved with a single-axis control that used only range and range-rate measurements. The station-keeping cost with this control is given as a function of the measurement noise. If Earth- based measurements are available, this cost is very Pow. Other transla- tion-control analyses of this study include (1) solar-sail control at the Earth-Moon collinear points, (2) a limit-cycle analysis for an on-off :b control system, and (3) a method for stabilizing the position of the mass center of a cable-connected satellite at a collinear point by simply changing the length of the cable with an internal device. b, For certain applications, a satellite is required to follow a small quasi-periodic orbit around a collinear libration point. Analytical estimates for the corrections to this orbit due to the effects of non- linearity, eccentricity, and perturbations are derived.

  • The Surface of the Moon
    THE SURFACE OF THE MOON OBSERVATIONS BY THE COMMITTEE ON STUDY OF THE SURFACE FEATURES OF THE MOON F. E. WRIGHT Geophysical Laboratory HE 'I'he Carnegie Institution of Washington Carnegie Institution of Washington was founded by TAndrew Carnegie to advance knowledge in different fields of science through research work. In the early days of the Institution careful surveys of certain branches of sciences were made by special committees of experts to ascertain the particular problems in each field that were strategically important and could be attacked by scientists working together but approaching each problem from different standpoints. The value of diversified but coordinated attack on a problem is well recognized in the military services (tactics) and is equally important in science. The committees, after study of the different fields, recommended certain problems for consideration. Of these a limited number were adopted and small groups of research men were brought to­ gether and given opportunity to work on them. These groups were gradually organized into the departments and laboratories of the Institution. A number of these units have now been operating for more than thirty years, and have made extremely important contributions to science. In addition to support of the work of the departments, the Institution has aided many individual inves­ tigators (research associates) on specific problems related to work of the Institution. During the first twenty years of their existence the departments were so occupied with their own problems that each one functioned as an independent unit with little knowledge of the work and per­ sonnel of the other groups.
