	Astronaut Interview
		That is why it was possiblle for the astronauts who walked on the Moon to be able to walk with their space suits.
		Astronauts do need to stay in good physical shape, we spend a fair amount of time at the gym, running, playing ball, excercising, keeping ourselves in good shape to be able to fly.
		On our flight a Japanese astronaut drove the robot arm that's attached to the shuttle and we use it to attach to satellites that are flying in space and then bring them down into the payload bay of the space shuttle.

		As the Apollo program continued to evolve, NASA faced an ever increasing tide of criticism over the fact that the astronaut corps was dominated by military pilots and contained no women.
		For this reason, NASA issued a call for astronaut candidates that would serve as "Scientist Astronauts".
		In the end, only six Scientist Astronauts were selected, and the National Academy of Science issued a statement saying the overall quality of the candidates was "disappointing".

		Arithmetic tasks were performed about equally well by all groups, and some highly motivated subjects could work 16 hr/day on the 4:2 schedule with essentially no decrements over a period of at least 15 days, and possibly for as long as 30 days.
		In the event that the reserve capacities of the astronaut are depleted because of either overloading during emergencies (e.g., continuous performance of highly complex tasks) or underloading during mission cruise phases (when few task demands are placed on the operator), we can anticipate that fatigue may be a problem.
		A maximum duty period of 4 hr is the most efficient when a passive task is combined with one or more active tasks, the workload is not too great, and a high level of performance must be maintained.

	ch-4
		The Mercury Astronaut is in nearly continuous touch with the ground stations and has need for only limited provisions for habitability because he need neither eat, sleep, eliminate waste, nor find relaxation during programed missions.
		This will mean, for example, that a healthy astronaut leaving on such a voyage could, by exposure to his crew members and the bacteria that each brings to the cabin, become quite ill during the flight time unless provisions are made within the environmental control system and through medications placed onboard to control such events.
		The maximum allowable dosage permissible for an astronaut has been discussed with many experts within the United States, and the general concensus of opinion is that 25 REM is the upper limit.

	NASA - Astronaut
		An astronaut is a person who pilots a spacecraft or works in space, particularly in the space program of the United States.
		Astronauts and cosmonauts operate spacecraft and space stations, launch and recapture satellites, and conduct scientific experiments.
		Space travel is risky, and a number of astronauts and cosmonauts have lost their lives in training or on space flights.

		Astronauts (and cosmonauts) are people specially trained to work in space, spending weeks or months carrying out mission tasks and research in science on a space station or spacecraft.
		The term "astronaut" derives from the Greek words meaning "space sailor," and refers to all who have been launched as crew members aboard NASA spacecraft bound for orbit and beyond.
		Each astronaut carries an instrument to measure their exposure to this radiation, which limits the amount of time that astronauts can spend in orbit.

	Group Excercise (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Groups of six to eight are formed (although it often works in groups as small as two) and each member is asked to read the simple description of the problem, and then to complete the rating scale for the exercise.
		For example if a rating of 4 was given to a particular item by the group member, and the astronauts rated that item as 6, the difference for that item would be 2.
		I have seen it have a major impact on the perceptions of a couple, such as one I remember where he was an engineer in a scientific project and she was a (pardon me but the analogy is so expressive) bimbo de jour, scatter brain type.

		The formula for numbering Apollo missions was altered when the three astronauts scheduled for the first manned flight lost their lives in a flash fire during launch rehearsal 27 January 1967.
		Astronaut John H. Glenn Jr., is hoisted out of the Friendship 7 spacecraft after splashdown in the Atlantic 20 February 1962.

		For the most part, "cosmonaut" and "astronaut" are synonyms in all languages, and the usage of choice is often dictated by political reasons.
		However in the United States, the term "astronaut" is typically applied to the individual as soon as training begins, while in Russia, an individual is not labelled a cosmonaut until successful space flight.
		The first astronauts, both in the USA and USSR, tended to be jet fighter pilots, often test pilots, from military backgrounds.

		Petersen’s asserted ‘high-level government contacts" in their soliciting of private funding in support of this group’s alleged "Project Starlight." Billed as an effort to persuade U.S. citizens that contacts with "ETs" in "UFOs" are either imminent or have been made, this group also has been positioning itself to play an "international role" managing public responses.
		On June 4, 1995, the twenty-four participants of the Asilomar Conference wrote a letter to President Clinton asking "that the appropriate members of the Administration meet with members of the Project Starlight Coalition.
		Each group was writing letters and presenting evidence to support their case.

		This group of four was only the second selection of Canadian astronauts, the first being the 1983 group that included Garneau and Bondar.
		Astronauts inside the International Space Station then commanded the Canadarm2 to reach out with one of its two identical “hands” and grasp onto the station.

But the greatness in size of other stars or planets is small when compared to the Pleiades in importance, because the Pleiades is the place of the eternal throne of God.

		While both NASA and the National Academy of Science had expressed disappointment in the quality of Scientist Astronaut candidates applying during the fourth astronaut draft, the proposed Apollo Applications program created a need for more astronauts with scientific expertise.
		With the hope of attracting a more diverse group of applicants from which to choose, maximum age for the new crop of Scientist Astronauts was raised to not older than 40, and the citizenship requirement was broadened to include both native and naturalized U.S. citizens.
		In all other respects, qualifications during this draft were identical to those for NASA Group 4.

		And you'd be equally hard-pressed to find a band from that era making as solidly listenable a comeback as Astronaut, their new offering, and the first in quite some time with all five of Duran Duran's founding members.
		Part of the real shock value of Astronaut is that, while the band has updated its instrumental sound ever so slightly - okay, okay, quite a bit - the defining sound that is Simon Le Bon's voice, and the great harmonies from the group as a whole, hasn't changed a bit.
		Standouts include the damned catchy Astronaut with its euphoric synth sweeps and the well-chosen lead single (Reach Up For The) Sunrise, but those are just the two tracks that trip my trigger the most on the first listen - the whole album really is worth a listen.
