The Earth Loses Weight. |
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | The Earth Loses Weight Possible Forming planetary system Caught by ESA Telescope Choose Hubble's Next Target THE Earth LOSES WEIGHT New calculations from physicists at the University of Washington could establish the most precise measurement ever achieved of Isaac Newton's gravitational constant. These new calculations revise the weight of the Earth, lowering it by 8,000,000,000,000,000,000 metric tonnes. http://cnn.com/2000/TECH/space/05/01/earth.weight.ap/index.html http://www.discovery.com/news/briefs/20000501/space_earth.html http://www.foxnews.com/science/050100/earthmass.sml http://www.msnbc.com/news/402026.asp POSSIBLE FORMING planetary system CAUGHT BY ESA TELESCOPE The European Space Agency's Infrared space telescope, ISO, has measured the size of a proto-planetary system, surrounding a newly-born star. ISO sees a very young 'baby-star' surrounded by a disk of the same diameter as Jupiter's orbit, in which planets are likely to form in the future. http://spaceflightnow.com/news/n0004/30iso/index.html http://www.spaceviews.com/2000/04/29b.html CHOOSE HUBBLE'S NEXT TARGET The Hubble Heritage Project will soon be accepting votes on which object in space the telescope will look at next. To register a vote, you need to visit the project's internet site before 6 June. This is the third time a public vote on Hubble viewing has been taken. http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_732000/732197.stm NEWS FROM SPACEDAILY.COM FOR TODAY - Scramjet Could Hurtle Queensland Into Space Age http://www.spacedaily.com/news/aust-00a.html - Taiwan Taps Into Private US Spy Satellite http://www.spacedaily.com/news/china-00w.html - Atlas Gets A Lighter Load http://www.spacedaily.com/news/earth-00b.html - Bringing Terra To The Desk http://www.spacedaily.com/news/earth-00c.html - ISO Spys planetary system In Formation http://www.spacedaily.com/news/extrasolar-00f.html - New Mir Funds To Be Credited Early May http://www.spacedaily.com/news/mir-00zc.html - Orbiting Russian ISS Node Proving Reliable http://www.spacedaily.com/news/iss-00q.html - Kazakhstan Wants Russia To Stop Ashuluk Launches http://www.spacedaily.com/news/kazakhstan-00d.html - Russian Space Industry Recovers To 1993 Levels http://www.spacedaily.com/news/russia-00a.html - Surrey Breeds New Nano-Satellites http://www.spacedaily.com/news/nanosat-00f.html
