...first 17 minutes of flight. One is a computer color graphic display inside the T-38 chase planes, vehicles used to photograph the lift-off and aid the shuttle's pilots in chase of emergency. The display will inform the chase pilots of the shuttle's location and transmit vector information to them in a situation that would require their intervention...

The vector of economic prosperity currently points south and west, toward the Sunbelt, and away from the Frostbelt and the traditionally prosperous regions of the northeast and midwest. This economic trend leaves in its wake poverty, unemployment and urban decay in proportions neither the federal government nor Frostbelt state governments can adequately...
...most promising avenue. "There were two major problems," Glashow recollects, "the mathematical problem, and the 'finiteness' problem. I solved the first, and Steve solved the second." The one clue sprung from the fact that the amount, or quantum of energy, exchanged in the weak interactions, the so-called "intermediate vector boson," was found to have the same value as the quantum of energy exchanged in electromagnetic interaction. The scales were obviously vastly different, as were the distances over which the two forces act, but this mathematical parallel nonetheless represented a gummer of hope. Glashow broke through in 1961 with...
