...that the movie fails to engage us? There is the well-realized meeting between two curious and disparate minds. Added to this is a sweet courtship and real marriage between Field and a gas station attendant (Beau Bridges), a man with few brains but good, patient instincts. The problem lies in story development. There is something dreadfully predictable about the way the tale moves. When Norma Rae finally causes all the machines in the mill to be stopped through the sheer force of her belief in justice, our response is to wonder why it took so long for the film...
Last week, after a journey of 18 months, a tiny visitor from earth streaked precariously close to the giant of the solar system, penetrating deep into Jupiter's powerful magnetic field and coming within 278,000 km (172,400 miles) of the Jovian cloud tops. Back at Caltech's Jet Propulsion Lab, controllers waited breathlessly to see whether the plucky robot would survive that dangerous encounter. But even before Voyager 1 made its closest approach on Monday, the 826 kg (1,820 lb.) unmanned spacecraft sent home a trove of new findings about Jupiter, including evidence that...
Whether or not this technological gambit succeeds, the $400 million project has already provided rich scientific dividends. Even before the drum-shaped spacecraft's first brush with the so-called bow shock region, where the Jovian magnetic field traps the solar wind, Voyager's sensitive instruments picked up a bewildering jet stream of frozen ammonia apparently traveling at 560 km (350 miles) per hour above the planet's clouds. Voyager also discovered a dazzling, doughnut-shaped cloud of electrically charged particles that formed displays similar to the earth's northern lights...
