This project successfully convened a workshop on March 30-31, 2005 at the University of Alaska Southeast to bring together representatives from different marine science disciplines and organizations to synthesize information on the marine biology and oceanography of Southeast Alaska. Thirty-eight individuals participated, including representatives of the University of Alaska and state and national agencies. -
Spacecraft Imaging for Amateurs an International Community of Space
Planetary Close-ups emily lakdawalla Spacecraft Imaging for Amateurs An international community of space This is Mars’s Big Sky Country, a windswept, nearly featureless plain. Tiny ripples in the rust-colored sand march farther than the eye can see, to a horizon so fl at one might be able to see the curvature of the planet. As far as anyone knows, those ripples have not budged in eons. But all is not still; gaze upward, and you might be surprised by the rapid motion overhead, where feathery cirrus clouds, frosty with bright crystals of water ice, fl oat on high Martian winds. The scene is from Meridiani Planum, composed from eight images captured by the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity just before she reached a deep crater named Victoria, on the 950th Martian day of her mission. But the beautiful image was not created by anyone on the Mars Exploration Rover team; no scientist would likely have Earthbound produced it, because it owes its beauty as much to art as it observers never does to science. see Mars as a The image is the collaborative creation of a whole crescent, but amateur-imagesmith community; six people, each from spacecraft do. a diff erent country, had a hand in it.

Mission Design Considerations for Mars Cargo of the Human Spaceflight Architecture Team’S Evolvable Mars Campaign
Mission Design Considerations for Mars Cargo of the Human spaceflight Architecture Team's Evolvable Mars Campaign Waldy K. Sjauw, ∗ Melissa L. McGuirey and Joshua E. Freehz NASA Glenn Research Center, Cleveland, OH, 44135, U.S.A. Recent NASA interest in human missions to Mars has led to an Evolvable Mars Cam- paign by the agency's Human Architecture Team. Delivering the crew return propulsion stages and Mars surface landers, SEP based systems are employed because of their high specific impulse characteristics enabling missions requiring less propellant although with longer transfer times. The Earth departure trajectories start from an SLS launch vehi- cle delivery orbit and are spiral shaped because of the low SEP thrust. Previous studies have led to interest in assessing the divide in trip time between the Earth departure and interplanetary legs of the mission for a representative SEP cargo vehicle.

Introduction he NASA Human spaceflight Architecture Team (HAT) has kicked off an Evolvable Mars Campaign T(EMC). This campaign involves two main mission components: human transport and pre-deployed as- set, or cargo, delivery. While the human transport missions have a strong focus on duration, the cargo delivery missions allow for longer trip times in order to reduce required propellant. -

The Voyage of the Argo and Other Modes of Travel in Apollonius’ Argonautica
THE VOYAGE OF THE ARGO AND OTHER MODES OF TRAVEL IN APOLLONIUS’ ARGONAUTICA Brian D. McPhee A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Classics. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: William H. Race James J. O’Hara Emily Baragwanath © 2016 Brian D. McPhee ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Brian D. McPhee: The Voyage of the Argo and Other Modes of Travel in Apollonius’ Argonautica (Under the direction of William H. Race) This thesis analyzes the Argo as a vehicle for travel in Apollonius’ Argonautica: its relative strengths and weaknesses and ultimately its function as the poem’s central mythic paradigm. To establish the context for this assessment, the first section surveys other forms of travel in the poem, arranged in a hierarchy of travel proficiency ranging from divine to heroic to ordinary human mobility. The second section then examines the capabilities of the Argo and its crew in depth, concluding that the ship is situated on the edge between heroic and human travel. The third section confirms this finding by considering passages that implicitly compare the Argo with other modes of travel through juxtaposition. The conclusion follows cues from the narrator in proposing to read the Argo as a mythic paradigm for specifically human travel that functions as a metaphor for a universal and timeless human condition. iii parentibus meis “Finis origine pendet.” iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to my director and mentor, William Race. -
