THE FOLLOWING NEWS ITEM APPEARED ON AP (ASSOCIATED PRESS) AT 4:41 PM EST MARCH 30, 1989: . "SOVIET RESEARCH CENTERS ARE NOW TRYING TO INTERPRET SO FAR 'UNEXPLAINED OPTICAL PHONOMENA' ON THE PICTURES OF THE MARTIAN SURFACE. THE PICTURES SHOW AN INIGMATIC STRIP 23-25 MILES WIDE AND A LARGE SPINDLE-SHAPED FORMATION." . According to NASA liason spokepersons in Moscow, the Soviets had not turned on their camera and WERE NOT even taking pictures of the Martian surface. This is the information which was relayed only a few weeks ago. AP also stated that the Soviet news program "Vremya" showed a detailed map of Mars "compiled from photos taken during the mission." It DOES now appear that the Soviets WERE taking pictures and furthermore, it looks like they may have found something in those photographs which is quite interesting. . ============================================================= Uploaded by Martin Arant on ParaNet Alpha (303)431-1343 Mike -- Michael Corbin - via FidoNet node 1:104/422 UUCP: ...!scicom!mcorbin INTERNET: mcorbin@paranet.FIDONET.ORG ------------------------------ From: EWTILENI@pucc.Princeton.EDU (Eric William Tilenius) Subject: Re: Circumstances of Koopman's death Date: 5 Aug 89 19:33:06 GMT In article <8908012158.AA03853@trout.nosc.mil>, jim@pnet01.cts.COM (Jim Bowery) writes: >Here are some of the circumstances of George Koopman's death: >He is pronounced dead at the scene.

Jim, I've ignored your anti-NASA cracks for some time, but I can't do so any longer. This time, you've gone too far. Are you so desparate to discredit our nation's space agency that you turn to unfounded accusations of murder?! George Koopman's death was a great loss. He was a friend, and a great entrepreneur - a man with vision and courage. And I was deeply distressed to hear that he had passed on. But when you try to use his death as another of your propaganda weapons against NASA, I'm afraid I can't remain silent any longer. I know you'd like nothing better than to entertain and broadcast your paranoid fantasies about murdering NASA bureaucrats, but I can't let the death of a friend be your excuse to do that. George was a doer - he built Amroc from the ground up through his long hours and sweat. His criticisms of NASA's space transportation policy were well known, but he spoke eloquently of NASA's role in exploration. He served on the Board of the National Space Society, and carried with him a hope for our future in space. And I'm sure that if he could hear you now, Jim, he'd be mad as hell, because you're using his death as another attempt to demean the entire space program of the United States of America. If you're so concerned about private enterprise in space, and if you're so sure that there's money to be made there, then I challenge you to do what George Koopman did: I challenge you to start your own firm to develop the space frontier. George deserves our eternal gratitude for the positive contribution he made to the space transportation industry. He doesn't deserve being used as a tool in your personal anti-NASA slander campaign. - ERIC - Eric W.

I am infavor of a private space program, because I believe that most people (read the government) are not but I think that enough people are interested to get it done. Further, I am willing to put money where my mouth is, it is just that my meger salary will not support a space program. WE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN A PRIVATE SPACE PROGRAM MUST ORGANIZE. Are there enough interested persons to do it? Those who are not interested, do not have to participate. If we die, we die. If the dream dies, it's a loss for our children, and our race. This is beside the point but: If we participated in a joint space program with the countries which we are arming ourselve against and matched each other dollor for dollar, and made a competition out of putting in the most effort (read dollars) then we could have a very health world space program, and we would stop wasting money on weapons that we hope we will never use anyway.

Infinite. We cannot reach Pluto without a Jupiter flyby. Unless you stack a bunch of upper stages on Energia, or do in-orbit assembly, current boosters can get useful payloads to Venus, Mars, and (barely) Jupiter. Period. To reach Mercury or the planets out beyond Jupiter, gravity assist is vital. >Would going >via a third planet, perhaps prior to Jupiter, make the trip >any shorter? Jupiter-Saturn gravity assist can speed things up, but everything needs to be in *just* the right place, which is why there is no possibility of another Voyager 2 for a century or two.
