THE DAY IN SPACE
________________
In today's space news from SpaceRef:
-- No Ice at the Lunar Poles
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=13004
"If there is ice at the poles, the only way left to test it is to go there directly and melt a small volume
around the dust and look for water with a mass spectrometer," says Bruce Campbell of the Center
for Earth and Planetary Studies at the Smithsonian Institution.
-- ESA's first step towards Mars Sample Return
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=13003
"As currently envisaged, the MSR will be a two-stage endeavour. First, a spacecraft that includes a
return capsule will be launched in 2011 and inserted into orbit around Mars. Two years later, a
second spacecraft carrying a Descent Module and a Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV) will be launched
on a similar trajectory."
-- Notice of Intent to Release a Solicitation for NASA Mars Science Laboratory Investigations
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewsr.html?pid=10977
"NASA's Office of Space Science intends to release an Announcement of Opportunity in March 2004
timeframe to solicit proposals for Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission investigations for a space
flight mission to be launched in December 2009."
-- Not-Yet-Turned-On Star is Forming Jupiter-like Planet
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=13008
"University of Arizona astronomers have used a new technique called nulling interferometry to
probe a dust disk around a young nearby star for the first time. They not only confirmed that the
young star does have a protoplanetary disk -- the stuff from which solar systems are born -- but
discovered a gap in the disk, which is strong evidence of a forming planet."
-- Bush Space Policy: Will America (Finally) Go Somewhere Once Again?
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewnews.html?id=894
"Word from knowledgeable sources would suggest that an overt Kennedy-esque commitment to
send humans to Mars is simply not in the cards. Indeed, Mars (as an option) is not on the table at the
present time."
