MOST DISTANT OBJECT EVER OBSERVED

A quasar observed by the 10-meter Keck telescope in Hawaii was

revealed to be the most distant object identified in human history. The

distance of the quasar is indicated by its "red-shift", the amount that

light from a distant object has shifted toward red by the expansion of

the universe. The higher the redshift, the farther the object, and the

younger the universe when the observed light was emitted. The light

from the quasar that we observe dates back to the infancy of the

Universe when it was less than a billion years old.

INTERSTELLAR TRAVEL THROUGH WORMHOLES

New calculations based on Einstein's General relativity suggest that

stable wormholes exist that are large enough for faster-than-light travel

through them. Hints of the existence of short-cuts through space

have intrigued scientists since German theorist Ludwig Flamm

discovered the possibility in Einstein's equations.

SUCCESSFUL SHUTTLE REPAIR KEEPS MISSION ON TRACK

Technicians toiled late Wednesday and early Thursday to repair a faulty

power drive unit (PDU) in the tail of Atlantis. The successful launch-pad

repair should keep the shuttle on schedule for it's April 24th mission.

This was the first time a shuttle PDU has been replaced on the launch

pad.
