	Helios - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Helios was imagined as a handsome god crowned with the shining aureole of the sun, who drove a four-horse chariot across the sky.
		The best known story involving Helios is that of his son Phaeton, who attempted to drive his father's chariot but lost control and set the earth on fire.
		Helios begged him to stop and Heracles demanded the golden cup which Helios used to sail across the sea every night, from the west to the east.

		The Helios, which holds the record for fastest manmade object, was a series of two spacecraft launched in the mid-1970s to study the Sun.
		Helios 1 was launched in December 1974 and Helios 2 in January 1976, both reaching the Sun within about three months.
		The maximum speed of Helios 2, which achieved its perihelion distance of 0.29 AU on 17 April 1976, is quoted as about 150,000 mph (241,350 km/h).

	Greek Mythology: HELIUS HELIOS Titan God of the Sun, Sight ( Sol ) w/ Pictures
		Helios is described even in the Homeric poems as the god who sees and hears every thing, but, notwithstanding this, he is unaware of the fact that the companions of Odysseus robbed his oxen, until he was informed of it by Lampetia.
		Helios was regarded as the inventor of the four-horse chariot, a natural association given the belief that the sun-god drove such a vehicle daily across the sky.
		But the story relates that Helios (the Sun) resented the boy’s power of speed and transformed his body into the spiral shell as it now is: the cause of his anger I cannot tell, neither does the fable mention it [perhaps the boy bragged of his prowess].

		Helios II comprised two four-tonne satellites, Helios IIA and IIB, which were to deliver improved performance relative to their Helios I predecessors (in terms of resolution capability, number of images they can take, and night sight), and an enhanced user ground segment.
		The Helios programme was Europe's military optical reconnaissance system consisting of both a space and a ground segment, which commenced service in 1995, jointly funded by the French, Italian and Spanish governments.
		The new Helios II system was to be able to process data from both the Helios I and the Helios II satellites, while remaining open to future space-based intelligence systems.

		The spacecraft was capable of being operated at bit rates from 4096 to 8 bps, variable by factors of 2.
		While the spacecraft was moving to perihelion, it was generally operated from 64 to 256 bps; and near 0.3 AU, it was operated at the highest bit rate.
		Because of a deployment failure of one axis of the 32-m, tip-to-tip, dipole antenna of Helios 1, one axis was shorted, causing the antenna to function as a monopole.

		Helios is the name of an ancient mythological sun god.

		This steals the attention from the last minute appearances by the mysterious stranger who repeatedly approaches Sunstrike in his sleep, and seems to serve no purpose but to slow down the story and provide an obligatory action scene to demonstrate the abilities of the superpowered persons in the story.
