...produce humanity. It differs from Deism, the "divine clockmaker" theology of Enlightenment thinkers like Thomas Jefferson, in that many Deists think God signed off once the clock was wound. Collins, on the other hand, thinks the whole point was for God to create a being with whom he could develop an ongoing relationship through prayer, Scripture and what the scientist cheerfully acknowledges as a scientifically inexplicable "divine invasion of the natural world" in the saving person of Jesus Christ...
...NASA is hoping to shave off the last two of its planned 17 upcoming shuttle flights by encouraging private industry to develop a commercial short-hop space vehicle to ferry astronauts and supplies to and from the space station. Then, to replace the shuttle, NASA is planning a new-generation, Apollo-style capsule capable of going on to the moon. Foam should not be an issue on the next-generation space ship because the crew capsule will sit atop the rocket rather than essentially hug the rockets as does the shuttle. If foam insulation is used, any debris will fall...
...with their distended and enlarged placentas. Some of Wilmut's cloned sheep were born with incomplete body walls, with muscles and skin around their abdomen that failed to properly join. Other scientists have reported abnormalities in kidney and brain function. In still other clones, the heart does not develop normally, and the walls that are supposed to separate fresh blood from deoxygenated blood do not form...
...satellites, sensors and even space-based weapons capable of thwarting a massive missile strike from the Soviet Union or China. But with the Cold War's end, the scale of the threat has also been reduced to that posed by a handful of "rogue states" with the means to develop such weapons and the mentality to brandish, or even launch them, toward...
...Pentagon wants to leapfrog problems with the current interceptor by developing a new one. After trying for years to develop an interceptor that could discriminate between warheads and decoys - and kill only the warhead - it has given up on that goal. Instead, it wants to spend $2.4 billion through 2011 developing a "Multiple Kill Vehicle" that will unleash a dozen or more mini-interceptors to destroy all potential warheads. "This reduces the burden on sensors and algorithms, which no longer need to be programmed to select one, best target," the Pentagon says. Of course, a better interceptor...
