NASA today undertook a mission that aims to prove beyond doubt the presence of water on the moon surface. If this is proved, and NASA claims that it was a final test to prove it following a recent NASA confirmation about water’s presence on moon, it will open up a whole new possibility of expansion of research and habitation on moon. NASA had sent two probing mission on board an Indian moon mission to further probe if there was water on moon.
The result was positive and Indian scientists belonging to its prestigious Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) also said that their probe too had established that indeed there was water on the surface of the moon. Today Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS) did a magnificent job by hitting the moon surface with a sped of around six thousand miles an hour. The findings will be known only after the detailed data analysis work is completed by NASA scientists and other scientists who are also cooperating with NASA. Moon has always fascinated the human beings. Since the Soviet Union first succeeded in implementing the concept in 1966, 18 spacecraft landed on the Moon up to 1976.
Nine of these missions returned to Earth bearing samples of Moon rocks. The former Soviet Union, the United States, Japan, Europe, India and China have all achieved hard Moon landings. The Soviet Union later achieved sample returns via the unmanned Luna 16, Luna 20 and Luna 24 Moon landings. Since this was during the time of the Cold War, the contest to be the first on the Moon was one of the most visible facts of the Space Race. The United States space agency NASA achieved the first manned landing on Earth's Moon as part of the Apollo 11 mission commanded by Neil Armstrong. On July 20, 1969, lunar module Eagle landed on the surface of the Moon, carrying Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.

This is the first time that any space agency is going to strike moon with such a speed that will take the probe four to five feet beneath the moon surface. The world’s leading space agency is trying to ascertain about the water on the moon following its probe showing that water was there on the moon. Very recently NASA and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research successfully launched a small rocket using an environmentally-friendly, safe propellant comprised of aluminum powder and water ice, called ALICE.
"This collaboration has been an opportunity for graduate students to work on an environmentally-friendly propellant that can be used for flight on Earth and used in long distance space missions," said NASA Chief Engineer Mike Ryschkewitsch at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "These sorts of university-led experimental projects encourage a new generation of aerospace engineers to think outside of the box and look at new ways for NASA to meet our exploration goals." Using ALICE as fuel, a nine-foot rocket soared to a height of 1,300 feet over Purdue University's Scholer farms in Indiana earlier this month. ALICE is generating excitement among researchers because this energetic propellant has the potential to replace some liquid or solid propellants. When it is optimized, it could have a higher performance than conventional propellants.
"By funding this collaborative research with NASA, Purdue University and the Pennsylvania State University, AFOSR continues to promote basic research breakthroughs for the future of the Air Force," said Dr. Brendan Godfrey, director of AFOSR. ALICE has the consistency of toothpaste when made. It can be fit into molds and then cooled to -30 C 24 hours before flight. The propellant has a high burn rate and achieved a maximum thrust of 650 pounds during this test.

obama nobel peace prize

obama nobel peace prize
Barack Obama is in good company: Nelson Mandela, Albert Schweitzer, Martin Luther King and former U.S. President Teddy Roosevelt. All have won the Nobel peace award (sometimes controversial) 108 years of history. The first African American held the highest office in the U.S., Obama called for disarmament and trying - so far unsuccessful - to restart the stalled Middle East peace process. He is currently considering to increase the number of troops in Afghanistan, where the United States mired in the eight years of conflict.
More than 200 candidates for the prize in the field of international commentators surprise choice Obama, partly because less than two weeks before the February deadline for candidates for the post. Obama's getting the Nobel Prize for his international groveling like Nevil Chamberlain, has received it (which is not) the signature of Great Britain and the Nazis in stroke of a pen. Norwegian as "fake sausage" is taken seriously only by liberals - Chris Matthews should be that there is another one of those Obama Tingles ran up his leg.
New low and tension - appointed within weeks of opening - no limit Liberal obsession and the cult of personality - the hero worship is no less nausea Racing - zero result, other than 9 months with U.S. President knew of control, - Passion God with the President on radical left "- Continental Europe and shamelessly political Nobel Committee, always do their best to strengthen weaknesses shame America, leaving a strong and clearly done well to choose Obama - Last, he was selected as the actual performance of candidates more credibilty or who have escaped persecution, namely that the Dalai Lama or even decades after the actual performance of President Carter received the award. Obama? Nothing, but the ambivalence and apologized on behalf of the U.S. - Blues word out. Good way to catch a faltering administration.
