Maravilloso incentivo moral para un trabajo que avanza gracias al ensayo y el error Tanto, que la NASA considera que China podria ganar la carrera espacial hacia el 2020 lo que , quien sabe, tambien haria rabiar al mismo Stalin en la tumba, pues es en el 2007 que se celebra el 50 anivesario del Sputnik: Aca un extracto del articulo “Los soviéticos derrotaron a los Estados Unidos al conseguir un satélite y un hombre en el espacio.

Sputnik and RP education
2007-10-08 05:33:00 In the US, there are scientists who are hoping for another ?Sputnik? to spark more interest in science and space exploration. The Philippines needs another ?Sputnik? too. But hopefully, educators will not be distracted from their primary mission of eradicating illiteracy and lack of basic skills among students.

On the 50th anniversary of Sputnik ? a step backwards!
2007-10-07 22:41:00 On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik and Science education changed in the United States. Money poured into schools to enhance the study of Science at every grade level. Materials for hands-on learning, textbooks, and lab equipment were all improved in order to promote a new generation of students who would flourish in every area of Science.Robert Yager in School Science and Mathematics wrote:Science and mathematics education have been linked to technological advances, the economy, and the well being of the United States citizenry since the Sputnik Shock of 1957. In the 20 years following the Soviet exploits in space, $2 billion were expended to advance K-12 science education in the US. It was a response designed to salve the nation?s wounded pride and the beginning of the dramatic infusion of funds and scientific talents to improve school science and mathematics.Science education has certainly improved and is probably the most consistent ?hands-on? subject in our sc...
Sputnik 50 Years On
2007-10-05 23:51:00 Beep Beep.....ListeningLookingThe 50 year anniversary of Sputnik captured my imagination this week as it did for these Sydney Amateur Photographers and Russian Children, with the simplicity and power of what was achieved.The Canadian-born Harry Messel, professor of physics at the University of Sydney said at the time.the satellite had no direct military significance at present but its potential is enormous ? unless we match Russian technology it will be the end of our present social and economic structure.Very true. I think some of the current ideas about going to Mars and the idea of inter planetary human civilisations are a bit loopy and best left to Star Wars and the like. How about spending some of the money for this technology on solutions to make our current living environment better and more sustainable.

Sputnik, 50 Years Later: The Launch of Techno-Power
2007-10-04 23:21:00 by Norman Solomon This is an excerpt from Norman Solomon’s new book “Made Love, Got War: Close Encounters with America’s Warfare State.” A story could start almost anywhere. This one begins at a moment startled by a rocket. In the autumn of 1957, America was not at war ... or at peace. The threat of nuclear annihilation shadowed every day, flickering with visions of the apocalyptic. In classrooms, “duck and cover” drills were part of the curricula. Underneath any Norman Rockwell painting, the grim reaper had attained the power of an ultimate monster. Dwight Eisenhower was most of the way through his fifth year in the White House. He liked to speak reassuring words of patriotic faith, with presidential statements like: “America is the greatest force that God has ever allowed to exist on His footstool.” Such pronouncements drew a sharp distinction between the United States and the Godless Communist foe. But on October 4, 1957, the Kremlin announced the launch of Sputnik, the wo...

Sputnik anniversary, to unveil Clinton science agenda
2007-10-04 19:07:00 Hillary Rodham Clinton used today’s the 50th anniversary of the Soviets launch of the Sputnik satellite to unveil a science agenda that would include a presidential executive order allowing “ethical stem cell research’’ and banning political appointees from altering the scientific conclusions in government publications.Clinton also called on a focus on alternative energy – “We can call it energy 2.0’’ – that would end the United State’s dependence on foreign oil.Clinton, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for president, pledged that if elected she would have a science advisor in the White House who will report directly to the president.Even before Clinton uttered a word of her speech, she came under attack from the Republican National Committee which pointed out she “is lecturing about math, even though she’s having trouble adding up the figures to pay for her own health care plan.’’Clinton did not put a dollar figure on her entire package, but she ...

Episode 12 ? Getting to Sputnik
2007-10-04 14:04:00 Today is the 50th anniversary of the launch of Earth's first artificial satellite -- Sputnik 1. Lots of news sites are covering various aspects of this anniversary -- mostly dealing with what's happened in space in the intervening 5 decades, and what we may see in the future. What seems to be getting far less coverage, though, is the twisted path that led to the launch. Sputnik's launch didn't take place in a vacuum (no pun intended), after all -- a number of social, political, and technical forces were at play. Tune in this week, and I'll fill you in on all of the good "deep background" information that's often lost in the shuffle.

Cinquant'anni dallo Sputnik
2007-10-04 12:34:00 Salve!!! Oggi google vuole festeggiare i cinquant'anni dal lancio in orbita dello sputnik 1!Era il lontano (ma non troppo!) 4 Ottobre 1957 quando lo sputnik 1, dal cosmodromo di Baikonur, nell'odierno Kazakistan, riuscì ad entrare nella storia come primo satellite artificiale, grazie al vettore R-7 (Semyorka).Anche se durò solo 57 giorni, questo fu un traguardo che ha segnato la storia umana.Votatemi nella top 100 italiana: Feed RSS 2.0 Questo/a opera è pubblicato sotto una Licenza Creative Commons.Tuttavia, se vi sono presenti citazioni provenienti da altre fonti, i diritti sono dei rispettivi autori e/o proprietari.

Sputnik 1, 50 aniversario del satelite mas famoso de la historia
2007-10-04 12:31:00 A escasos 3 dias de que este blog cumpla su primer añito en la red, hoy dia 4 de Octubre se celebra el 50 aniversario del lanzamiento del primer satelite espacial de la historia, el Sputnik 1.Como parte de la Guerra Fria, el Sputnik 1 supuso todo un golpe de efecto a los EEUU que vieron como su historico enemigo se avanzaba en la llamada carrera espacial. Fué todo un acontecimiento en la URSS, hasta tal punto que se facilitó a la población tanto rusa como mundial, la frecuencia exacta a sintonizar en sus aparatos de radio para captar los señales enviados por el pequeño satelite.Una muestra de la transmision la podeis escuchar aqui:Pequeño digo, porque pesaba 83 kilos. Tenia dos transmisores de radio de 20 y 40KHz. Se lanzó para investigar la concentración de electrones en la atmosfera, pero desengañemonos, el verdadero fin del lanzamiento fue dar una sensación de superioridad. Y funcionó hasta tal punto que los EEUU iniciaron su carrera espacial con el firme objetivo de ...

Sputnik's 50th Anniversary: Sad That We Have Not Gone Further in Space
2007-10-01 05:56:00 Sputnik celebrates its 50th anniversary on October 4 - the first artificial satellite to circle the planet. It was soon followed by Sputnik 2 (dogs in space, 1958), first human in space (Yuri Gagarin, 1961), Telstar (first telecom satellite, 1962), and we walked on the Moon (Armstrong and Aldrin, 1969).Notice that I didn't say Soviet or US above, because it doesn't really matter. Humans in space is what counts. But everyone of course knows that Sputnik - Russian for "fellow traveler" - set off the space race which we in the US eventually "won" in 1969. Prior to then, Telstar was our only first accomplishment.And did that victory get us? A space shuttle, with brave astronauts, some of whom lost their lives. But no one has gotten too far beyond this planet. We've sent robots to Mars, and that's exciting, but robots neither laugh nor cry - they're not human.And so, as the 50th anniversary of Sputnik approaches, I can only hope that we start doing a little better.

SIGUE SIGUE SPUTNIK - "Ultra real"
2007-06-26 15:46:00 EMI - 2.003Cuando en 1986 vi por primera vez a Sigue Sigue Sputnik, en el vídeo de "Love Missile F1-11", no pude evitar pensar que Malcolm McLaren había vuelto a las andadas con otro de sus productos post-Pistols como Adam & The Ants. Aunque estaba equivocado, no andaba lejos de la verdad, que en este caso era que alguien se había planteado "si el puede por qué no yo".Ese alguien fue Tony James que tras finiquitar Generation X después de su tercer disco y un paso veloz por The Lords Of the New Church (donde nos dejo la magnifica "Russian Roulette"), se planteo, según el mismo afirma, el hacer un grupo que sonara a la vez como todos los grupos que le gustaban entonces, esto es, Cramps, The New York Dolls, Suicide, Bowie, Alan Vegas. Y tomando buena cuenta de las lecciones de McLaren empezó por buscar a las personas que transmitieran esa imagen de rockstar que tenia en mente, la música ya surgiría después...Articulo completo: Sonido obscuro "Mickey Mouse Is Going To Hell..."

Her head's like Sputnik
2007-03-25 18:08:00 I'm adopted, and, each year on my birthday, I pay tribute to the woman who birthed me, not only to give thanks, but, salute her due to the size of my gargantuan cranium. I don't think I have a John Mayer head or, anything, when you look at me, but, it becomes all too apparent when I try to put on a hat. Busy Boy and I were cooking pancakes this morning, and, he put on a chef's hat. I picked it up to put it on after he finished, and, though it's adjustable, it don't go around my head all the way. I'm not really a hat person, anyway, but, the times I do try them on can be embarrassing. It's only exacerbated by the fact that my pin-headed (literal, not figurative) husband can wear children's hats. There's a whole Osh Kosh collection out there waiting for him, and, he won't even go near them. I'm hoping that our kids' heads end up the average of our two extremes, since it will make The Steeplechase very hard for them, if they inherited their cranial circumferences from...
