...part of its ongoing efforts to develop resources for students in science, the College began surveying undergraduates last Wednesday about their summer experiences. Associate Dean of the College Georgene B. Herschbach said she believed that the survey, part of an initiative of the Task Force of Women in Science and Engineering (WISE), was the first science survey administered to all College undergraduates. The page-long online questionnaire will compile responses from all students about their summer science activities as a source of background information for the further development of the Harvard Undergraduate Summer Science Research Program. The College is using...
...International Space Station (ISS). After the module tubes are finished, launched aboard a space-shuttle flight sometime in 2007, assembled and attached to the ISS, three Japanese astronauts will live in the JEM for three to six months at a time. "This is an essential opportunity for us to develop new technology for manned space travel," Hasegawa says. In addition to numerous experiments, a major priority for the mission is for Japan to learn more about comfortable space living...
...good deal is on the line. Space exploration is a powerful rallying point for national pride. It's also linked to military development?a benefit China can exploit in ways that Japan cannot. Japan has always had to promote and execute its space program exclusively for peaceful purposes. In China, however, the space program is still effectively run by the military. The possible military advances open to China through unmanned missions are causing as much nervousness in Japan and the U.S. as the hero-making, nationalism-stirring manned flights. Both the U.S. and Japan cried foul when the European Space...
...Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, has worked with a number of Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) engineers over the years and says he's consistently impressed by what they accomplish on a small budget: "They are not simply doing the easy things. They are ambitious and challenging themselves to develop new technologies, and they do it with very few people...
Touch is a basic requirement for optimum health: touch-deprived babies, both animal and human, do not develop normally. This need does not diminish with age, but older people often have fewer opportunities to give and receive health-promoting physical contact. I urge you as strongly as possible to find ways to touch and be touched as you move through life. One way, a perfectly good one, is to treat yourself to massage on a regular basis...
