...viewed from Earth, the 310-mile-diameter moon appears bright white, almost as if covered in ice or snow; when the Voyager 1 spacecraft arrived at Saturn in 1981, it confirmed that long-distance impression. More intriguing was the way Enceladus behaved. Embedded inside Saturn's E ring - the outermost of the eight bands that make up the ring system - Enceladus seemed to orbit with a thick clump of ring matter trailing behind it, almost as if it were dragging the material in its gravitational wake. What astronomers suspected instead - and what Voyager confirmed - was that Enceladus was not dragging...
...third of the artichoke with a serrated knife. If you'd like, snip off the pointy tips of the outermost large leaves. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and slip in the lemon halves and the prepared artichokes. Weight the artichokes down with a heatproof plate to keep them submerged as they cook. Boil until the bottom of the artichoke is tender when poked with the tip of a paring knife, 20 to 30 minutes, depending on size. To serve and eat the artichoke, remove the artichokes from the boiling water with a slotted spoon...

The plane lost its wings when one hit the ground and the other slammed into the building's west wall before the Boeing's fuselage tore a 75-ft. hole in the outermost Ring E. The jet's landing gear caused the 12-ft. hole in inner Ring C. But to question Flight 77's demise is to question the fate of the 64 people onboard; the remains of all but one have been identified...
...rays back in the prewar days when they were considered as wildly abstruse and impractical as a study of the mating habits of sea horses or the inner structure of a grasshopper"s brain. But today he can tip back his head and look at the sky. Beyond its outermost blue are the world-encompassing belts of fierce radiation that bear his name. No human name has ever been given to a more majestic feature of the planet Earth." Read more at timearchive.com...
