Aviation Week & Space Technology magazine said in its current edition that the Challenger astronauts used their Large Format camera to photograph the area of Sverdlovsk, where a major nuclear accident is believed to have occurred in the winter...

Said a member of Reagan's team: "We gave up a little in terms of dates and stood our ground on the question of format." In the debates, four journalists will each ask two questions; the candidates, standing at a podium, will respond to the same eight questions. Reagan and Mondale will get three chances to address each topic, initially with a 2½-min. answer, then with a 1-min. follow-up and rebuttal...
