	Amazon.com: Contact: Books: Carl Sagan (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		It is a Cold War era novel that parlays the nuclear paranoia of the time into exquisitely wrought tension among the various countries involved.
		CONTACT is a novel about the global reception of a message from space.
		While CONTACT starts out on a firm scientific basis that is gripping and well written, I found the novel as a whole to be disappointing.

	Contact electrification by cavity QED
		Contact charging of insulators by the transfer of electrons from the metal occurs if the Fermi level of the metal is higher than the bottom of the conduction band of the insulator.
		Contact electrification in the interface between metals and insulators is similar to the nucleation and collapse of bubbles in water, in that both the interface and bubble form high frequency QED cavities.
		Nucleation and collapse of bubbles in water is discussed in Appendix A. In contact electrification, inhibited EM radiation from atoms in the interface is compensated by an increase in the Planck energy that by the photoelectric effect produces electrons in the metal and insulator surfaces.

	Contact (novel) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Contact is a science fiction novel written by Carl Sagan and published in 1985.
		Some of Sagan's character traits are evident in the main (female) character, Ellie Arroway, and the novel serves as an entertaining platform in which he encapsulates ideas surrounding many of his life's interests, especially the first contact with extraterrestrials.
		However, this position is in direct conflict with the vast body of Sagan's views as represented in his work and writings (such as 'The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark') which are skeptical about claims of supernatural origins of the cosmos and favor explanations of a naturalistic origin.

	(Design) The Sensing Contact Lens
		A novel contact lens with embedded sensors is being developed for continuous monitoring of the intraocular pressure in glaucoma patients.
		The method chosen for measuring the evolution of the IOP in the sensing contact lens is indirect and correlates the spherical deformation of the eyeball with the changes in IOP.
		The sterilised sensing contact lens was positioned on the patients’ eyes by an ophthalmologist so that the wire from which the signal was recorded did not cause any major discomfort to the patients (Figure 3) and did not affect eye movement.

	Biography: Gordon Novel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		It was also reported that Novel worked with the Cuban Revolutionary Front during the Bay of Pigs operation via the CIA proprietary, the Evergreen Advertising Agency.
		Subsequently, Novel had sold the photograph to Walter Sheridan of N.B.C. I discussed this unusual case with the D.A. of Houma, and he insisted that as far as his jurisdiction was concerned, the removal of the munitions from the Schlumberger bunker had been a burglary.
		However, before I could question Novel about this latest adventure involving Guy Banister and his personal war against Cuba, Novel picked up word that I was looking for him (probably from one of the half dozen CIA men I had naively embraced as associates) and hit the road.

	Device for inserting and removing contact lenses - Patent 4512602
		The present invention is directed to a novel device for inserting and removing contact lenses with devices of this type being disclosed in U.S. Pat.
		Insofar as the insertion of contact lenses is concerned, such has previously been done by placing the lens on the eye with one's fingertip, by use of hollow cup-like shaped devices attached to thimble-type finger attachments, or by hollow suctionless devices.
		1 is a perspective view of a device for inserting and removing contact lenses in accordance with this invention, and illustrates the manner in which a lens is held upon the device incident to inserting the lens upon an eye while maintaining unobstructed visibility relative to an associated mirror.

	Contact: More Than Just a Film
		One thing the film skipped on that was in the culmination of the novel was the significance of pi, a transcendental number (3.14159...) representing the ratio of the circumference of the diameter of a circle.
		At least in the novel the reason was that rival nations wanted to build their own Machines (the Message was receivable everywhere Vega was visible from Earth) and meet the ETI first, plus gain any advanced technological information that the Machine had to offer.
		Though she had more relationships in the novel, no man is more than a temporary diversion to Ellie as she risks everything to reach that ultimate goal of contact.

	Contact: A Eulogy to Carl Sagan
		Contact is a must-see film for those who wish to comprehend and knowingly confront our culture's hostility towards faith that relies on revelation.
		If they have the technology to purposefully contact us, and this is something we cannot do, then their technology must be beyond ours.
		Though clearly an enemy of the faith, the closing sentences of the novel Contact indicated a belief, a hope, in an intelligence that antedates the universe.

	"Contact" Film Review by Larry Klaes
		In the film version, the Message was sent on the hydrogen line at 4.4623 gigahertz, a frequency which equals the hydrogen line frequency times the value of pi (in the novel, it was broadcast at 9.24176684 gigahertz and also on the 1667 megahertz hydroxyl (water) line).
		Numerous real celestial objects, such as the Eagle Nebula (Messier 16) with its incredible fl pillars of star-forming gas and dust (image courtesy of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST)), were seen in all their glory as we passed them by, though naturally at speeds far beyond those achievable in reality.
		At the end of Contact, we find her talking to children at the VLA about the radio observatory.

	Contact (Book Review)
		Another great part of Contact, and one that was glossed over in the film version, is the way that the message brings all the people of the Earth together.
		But on the last page of his novel, Sagan shows us that science and religion are one and the same.
		She agrees with you: Contact is one of the best books ever written.
