Anyone remember the Satellites?
2008-05-28 11:29:00 Received this email from Sunny Portugal the other day.Can anyone help?Hi AlanI played in the Satellites in the sixties and can remember the punishing schedules at the time. I remember one week when I had seven hours sleep. We played with the Animals as support at Bellingham town hall on the Friday when "House of the rising sun" was released. We went on the Geordie beat tour with four other bands, Paul Ryan and the Streaks, Kim and the kinetics, and the VIPs. My memory will not recall the last band. Apologies. The tour consisted of The Merseys, The Fortunes, The Naturals, Little Eva, Lulu and the Luvvers and Joe Cocker on his first tour. Can anyone remember us?Cheers--- from PortugalPeter Johnson

New discovery at Jupiter could help protect Earth-orbit satellites
2008-03-10 15:23:00 Radio waves accelerate electrons within Jupiter's magnetic field in the same way as they do on Earth Radio waves accelerate electrons within Jupiter?s magnetic field in the same way as they do on Earth, according to new research published in Nature Physics this week. The discovery overturns a theory that has held sway for more than a generation and has important implications for protecting Earth-orbiting satellites. Using data collected at Jupiter by the Galileo spacecraft, Dr Richard Horne of British Antarctic Survey (BAS) and colleagues from the University of California, Los Angeles, and the University of Iowa found that a special type of very low frequency radio wave is strong enough to accelerate electrons up to very high energies inside Jupiter?s magnetic field. According to lead author, Dr Richard Horne, ?We?ve shown before that very low frequency radio waves can accelerate electrons in the Earth?s magnetic field, but we have now shown that exactly the same theory works...

How Do Satellites 'Fly'?
2008-01-03 19:25:00 'Satellites fall parallel to the surface of the planet.'Model of the first satellite put into space by mankind, Sputnik 1The word satellite originally meant 'co-traveler' or 'traveling companion', and was first attributed to natural bodies orbiting planets such as the Moon, for example, which is Earth's satellite. Currently, the word satellite is mostly used to describe man-made instruments orbiting the Earth, while moons circling planets are called natural satellites. The vast majority of the satellites are put into the orbit with the help of rockets and are designed to carry out military missions, weather forecasts, scientific studies or telecommunication transmission.Incredible as it may seem, the first artificial satellite put into Earth's orbit was not an American one, but a soviet satellite, and had the role of studying the upper layers of the atmosphere. At first, the U.S. scientists thought that the announcement made by the Russians was a joke; however, when they det...
