  • Mercury up Close
    Volume 28 - Issue 12 :: Jun. 04-17, 2011 INDIA'S NATIONAL MAGAZINE from the publishers of THE HINDU SPACE Mercury up close AMALENDU BANDYOPADHYAY When MESSENGER, launched by NASA, began orbiting Mercury on March 18, it became the first spacecraft to do so. The deep, terracedcrater Camoes, named after the Portuguese poet Luiz Vaz de Camoes. THE planet Mercury has been somewhat neglected during the exploration of the solar system. It is the only planet within three billion kilometres of the earth not to have been orbited by a spacecraft until recently, and with good reason, for Mercury is a tricky place for a spacecraft to visit. The main stumbling block is that reaching Mercury requires a complex trajectory designed to decelerate a spacecraft. Until now, the only spacecraft to have achieved this feat, which was a monument to human ingenuity, was Mariner 10. It flew past Mercury three times between March 1974 and March 1975. Orbital mechanics meant that each time the same hemisphere was on view, and so only 45 per cent of Mercury's surface has been studied up close. Mariner 10 may have laid the foundations, but the complete mapping of Mercury and a full understanding of the planet's past remains an unfinished project. The workhorse for this endeavour is a spacecraft named MESSENGER (MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging). Launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) of the United States in August 2004, MESSENGER lowered its velocity using a close fly-by of the earth followed by two of Venus and is currently orbiting around Mercury.

  • Round the World in Eighty Places
    Round The World In Eighty Places Compiled by J. L. Herrera Dedicated to: Jacquie and Arabella Brodrick Mother and Daughter Travellers … May and Clarke Gerber Mother and Son Travellers … And especially in Memory of Clarke who died 25 June 2010. And With Thanks to: Patrick and Nicci Herrera, Beth Bennett, Ken Herrera, Gail Vardy, Cheryl Perriman, and those kind people who donate interesting books to stalls and op-shops. Introduction After nine Writers’ Calendars, of sorts, I thought I would do a collection with a slight difference. These are little snippets from here and there around the world, mostly from places I haven’t been. I thought it would be a way to travel at virtually no cost to me and might bring me into contact with some fascinating places and, with luck, some equally fascinating moments in history. Some of the places, as you will discover, aren’t places to stay and drink the water but I did want a sense of variety. It is still a writers’ calendar but I have confined my chosen pieces from various writers to pieces which have a connection to PLACE … And I have usually given priority to writers whose writing imparts a strong sense of PLACE … They don’t really need any introducing so hop aboard the magic carpet —ooops! I think it could do with a quick vacuum— and enjoy the journey with me. J. L. Herrera Hobart 2016 My computer has played up endlessly with this file and despite my best efforts to get everything the way it was in the original there may still be infelicities.

  • Men of Hawaii a Biographical Reference
    ...._._.-—vA9:-—.:~ MEN OF HAWAII A biographical record of men of substantial achievement in the Hawaiian Islands VOLUME IV Revised Edited by GEORGE F. NELLIST Published by THE HONOLULU STAR-BULLETIN, LTD. Territory of Hawaii I 9 3 O av .M.n.., ;w»$. _._.fim..sm«._ us. 2..M... 9.3%..3;.sfl.. Copyright, 1930, Honolulu Star-Bulletin, Limited Honolulu, Territory of Hawaii. U.S.A. FOREWORD “ EN OF HAWAII,’ is the fourth volume of bio­ graphical records in the regular series which has been published, beginning with l9l7, by The Honolulu Star­ Bulletin. This series aims to make available for the present, and to preserve for the future, the life stories of leaders in various fields of the Hawaiian Islands. It is a history of community and territorial progress, told in the form of biographical sketches, and the steady demand for the editions of previous years has abundantly illustrated its interest and its value. Both as a record of enterprise and achievement, and as a compilation of chronological facts, “Nlen of Hawaii" has be­ -comea standard reference work in Hawaii and abroad. Copies are sent all over the world. Libraries in distant cities call for the succeeding editions. Locally, the book is constantly in use. This book is Volume IV of “lVlen of Hawaii.” The first edition was in l9l7, the second in l9Zl, the third in I925. To a certain degree the present edition supplements and com­ plements “Builders of Hawaii” U925), with which was incorporated that year’s edition of ‘‘Men of Hawaii.” For the broadest coverage of Hawaiian biographical record, "Builders of Hawaii" and this l930 edition of ‘‘Men of Hawaii" should be treated as one work, and so maintained in reference libraries.

  • Collisions and Craters in the Solar System
    Mars Rover Landing Site 12.1 This NASA, Mars Orbiter image of the Mars Rover, Spirit, landing area near Bonneville Crater. The width of the image is exactly 895 meters. (Credit: NASA/JPL/MSSS). It shows the various debris left over from the landing, and the track of the Rover leaving the landing site. The scale of an image is found by measuring with a ruler the distance between two points on the image whose separation in physical units you know. In this case, we are told the width of the image is 895 meters. Step 1: Measure the width of the image with a metric ruler. How many millimeters wide is it? Step 2: Use clues in the image description to determine a physical distance or length. Convert to meters. Step 3: Divide your answer to Step 2 by your answer to Step 1 to get the image scale in meters per millimeter to two significant figures. Once you know the image scale, you can measure the size of any feature in the image in units of millimeters. Then multiply it by the image scale from Step 3 to get the actual size of the feature in meters to two significant figures. Problem 1: About what is the diameter of Bonneville Crater rounded to the nearest ten meters? Problem 2: How wide, in meters, is the track of the Rover? Problem 3: How big is the Rover? Problem 4: How small is the smallest well-defined crater to the nearest meter in size? Problem 5: A boulder is typically 5 meters across or larger.
