...terrorists when they're recruiting, planning, training, preparing, because once they start, they're going to blow themselves up in some way." The first responders tour a house set up as a suicide-bomb factory. The kitchen is littered with chemicals, including a jar of yellow liquid simulating human urine, which can be distilled into an ingredient for an explosive called urea nitrate (used in the first World Trade Center bombing in 1993). Haskins explains the assault to a visiting SWAT team from the Washington state police: "If you think explosives are inside, you don't blow the door...
...does, Phoenix Lander will probably offer a first look at actual Martian water ice rather than the dry water scars of millenniums past. To do that, the lander will use a digging arm and a suite of mineralogy instruments to hunt for salts, clays and other signs that liquid water is manipulating the soil. If Phoenix Lander hits its targets, this will be a big step toward later missions that will search for microscopic organic life. "Pay attention," Smith says, "because it's the polar region. No one's ever been there, and it's going...
There are about 85,000 people worldwide with liquid assets of $25 million or more, and their numbers are increasing. Sunseeker's dealers in Dubai "will take anything we can give them," Braithwaite says. Four years ago, Ferretti's Russian market was practically nonexistent. Last year sales there hit $147 million. Rich Russians are following the lead of homegrown multibillionaire Roman Abramovich. He owns three yachts, including the 377-ft. (115 m) Pelorus, and reportedly has a fourth under construction in Germany--the aptly named Eclipse, which at 509 ft. (155 m) would be the world's biggest privately owned...
...emit particles that are 90% water, in vaporized form, and contribute to the large rings around Saturn. "It's like the steam coming out of your kettle," Hansen-Koharcheck says. By analyzing the molecular structure of these particles, scientists hope to determine whether the vapor originates as ice or liquid, and whether that means there could be life in Enceladus's interior, beneath the surface...
...neutral mass spectrometer, and a cosmic dust analyzer, Cassini will photograph yet unseen parts near the moon's south pole. It will also use infrared technology to create a comprehensive map of surface temperatures at the south pole. Warmer temperatures increase the likelihood that there is water in liquid form on the small moon...
