Of, relating to, or being the orbit of such a satellite. In plain English, a satellite matches the earth's rotation making it seemingly hover over one spot of the globe enabling coverage of half the earth's surface. Three such satellites, appropriately spaced longitudinally, have worldwide coverage except for relatively small areas over the poles. Three main classes are typically placed into a GSO: Communications, missile early warning, and navigational satellites. The uses are unlimited ranging from commercial use to weather forecasts! The GSO originated in the mid-1970's. The U.S. Air Force designed a two-stage interim upper stage (later renamed inertial upper stage, or IUS) to carry satellites weighing as much as 5,000 pounds (2,300 kg) from the shuttle to Geostationary orbit, and a three-stage version for boosting NASA' s space probes from the shuttle into interplanetary trajectories. IUS development problems, however, prompted NASA in the early 1980' s to design a widebody version of the Centaur upper stage to replace the three-stage IUS.In its first use (1983) aboard the shuttle, the IUS's second-stage nozzle burned through and left the first Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS-1) in a useless orbit. Ground controllers were able to use the satellite's onboard thrusters to put it in the proper Geostationary orbit over a period of weeks, but the IUS was grounded until the nozzle problem was resolved.

The “Plumbers” most famous crime was the break-in at the home of former Pentagon employee Daniel Ellsberg.
NSSS states a few current trends in space as being “congested and contested” (NSSS, 8), which is shaping our space strategic environment as well as fueling debates for space weapons. “Congested” trend refers to the current “60 nations and government consortia that own and operate satellites and the expectation to have 9000 satellite communication transponders in orbit by 2015.
Interregnum, painted by the Chinese artist Hung Liu, is a massive oil painting created circa 2002. With the intentional application of several principles and elements of art in her work, Liu effectively depicts her late Asian culture’s traditional aspects while also exposing the harsh reality of China’s Communist society. Hung Liu incorporates a variety of styles into Interregnum while also utilizing color and line to visually communicate the subject matter to the viewer. In a formal interpretation of this work, the overarching theme of Interregnum will be explored and described, focusing on the particular values sought out by the artist Hung Liu.

The serpent, under the domain of Adam and Eve, doesn’t come as frightening or scary but “crafty.” The serpent asked Eve while she was alone “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” (3.1). God actually said, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die” (2:16-17). The serpent twists and manipulates the Word of God. The serpent is trying to change the Word of God. Instead of just walking away, Eve had a conversation with the serpent. “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, but God said, ‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die’’ (3:2-3). Eve distorts the God’s Word, and man is not supposed to add to or take away from the Word of God. “God promised that death would follow disobedience; Eve implied only that death might follow.” The serpent then follows Eve and directly contradicts the Word of God by saying “You will not surely die” (3:4). The serpent exploits Eve’s doubt by denying the penalty of death and by making her believe that she can become God like. Everything that was created by God was good, so the true wasn’t inherently bad. Eve is prideful and disobedient to the Word of God. She had faith in herself and no faith in God, and the serpent told Eve “you will be like God, knowing good and evil” (3:5). However, Adam and Eve’s were opened and they did see something and it was their
Have you ever been jealous of someone due to some reason? One can understand how jealousy can affect him or her to do horrible things. Jealousy causes people to perform stupid actions that they would not have done if they were not jealous of something or someone.

In William Shakespeare’s Othello the experience of jealousy as expressed by Othello, Iago and Roderigo play a large role in depicting the fate of the three characters throughout the play. Subsequently jealousy serves as the backbone for the downward spiral of Iago, Roderigo, and Othello. Jealousy is the driving force behind Othello’s accusations towards Desdemona. Roderigo’s jealousy escalates after Othello’s marriage to Desdemona is secure. Iago’s ill will towards Michael Cassio’s promotion puts Iago in a jealous rage and Iago will do whatever it takes to destroy Michael Cassio not caring who is taken down along the way. Jealousy serves as a theme for William Shakespeare’s Othello. Jealousy starts in the opening scene which ends the play in many of the character’s demise.
In June 1972, five burglars broke into Watergate complex, and were arrested on the spot. A reporter of Washington Post, Bob Woodward, starts an investigation to write a story and later is joined by another journalist, Carl Bernstein. In the process, they find out that the break-in leads much higher to H.R. Haldeman, “second most important person in the country” (after President Nixon).
The Watergate scandal was a matter of political espionage which ended in 1974 with the resignation of Richard Nixon, President of the United States. The case began in 1972 with the arrest, inside the Watergate building, of burglars in the premises of the Democratic Party in Washington. Investigations carried out by journalists and by the US Senate will eventually unveil illegal practices of large importance within the presidential administration. Although the burglary appears to have been led by former employees of the White House, the case initially makes very little noise. In appearance, the FBI's investigation does not go far. However, two Washington Post reporters, aided by a mysterious individual nicknamed Deep Throat, published many revelations,
Jealousy is an emotion that can keep the truths of a situation blurred. William Shakespeare emphasizes upon this major theme through the characters in his drama, Othello, by utilizing jealousy's power to influence the conflicts, which reveal its vile nature. This is seen within the stories villainous antagonist, Iago, who uses each characters jealousy to manipulate the actuality of situations with false promises and deceiving techniques to ultimately affect the story's protagonist, Othello. From a man with a loving and noble nature, jealousy transforms Othello into an uncontrollable, crazed monster. Without jealousy, Othello's insecurities would have not been possible and with that in mind, the significant role of jealousy in the tragedy is
As beautiful as earth is from ground it actually has more stunning vistas from international space station. They are around 120 artificial satellites in space starting from 100 to 25,000 miles from ground. There are many different types of Artificial Satellites, each having a distinct job. Some Artificial Satellites help to predict the weather, while others gather information about our universe for NASA and other organizations. Satellites can see things beyond human vision; they transform the invisible things to naked eye to visible vision. These transformed visible images will show how the sunlight, moisture, land and atmosphere react to make life on earth. These insights help scientists to relate between planet and life. So, What exactly make life? What are the essential ingredients, which made life possible on this planet? Why does sand storms at Sahara dessert affect amazon rain forest 5000 miles away? The video” Earth from Space” helps public understand the affects of forces on this planet.
The Global Positioning System consists of three sections, 1.satellites which are orbiting the planet, 2.there are numerous control/monitoring centers here on the ground, and 3. gps receivers which are used by their owners. The satellites send down signals from orbit, which are received by GPS receivers on the ground in the air or on the water, the GPS receiver then converts this information into a location longitude, latitude and altitude along with time.
