	Mariner 1 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the periods the airborne beacon was inoperative the omission of the hyphen in the data-editing program caused the computer to incorrectly accept the sweep frequency of the ground receiver as it sought the vehicle beacon signal and combined this data with the tracking data sent to the remaining guidance computation.
		The Mariner 1 spacecraft was identical to Mariner 2, launched 27 August 1962.
		Mariner 1 consisted of a hexagonal base, 1.04 meters across and 0.36 meters thick, which contained six magnesium chassis housing the electronics for the science experiments, communications, data encoding, computing, timing, and attitude control, and the power control, battery, and battery charger, as well as the attitude control gas bottles and the rocket engine.

	Miall -- Mariner #1 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		That the strangeness of The Ancient Mariner cannot, after all, be entirely resolved by such critical procedures, points to the existence of some resistant ambivalence central to the poem.
		The Mariner's subsequent encounter with death is so terrible that it imposes a psychic wound from which recovery can only ever be partial.
		It is from the conjunction of these two causes, guilt and the encounter with death, that the poem derives much of its power.

		The Master Mariner's class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are: Balance (Dex), Bluff (Cha), Climb (Str), Craft (Int), Jump (Str), Knowledge (geography, nature) (Int), Profession (Wis), Spot (Wis), Swim (Str), Survival (Wis), Tumble (Dex) and Use Rope (Dex).
		This must be a language the Master Mariner would have frequently been exposed to in his travels.
		Seamanship (Ex): At 4th level, the Master Mariner has become so familiar with the ways of the seas that she gains a +1 to all appropriate skills when used at sea.
