  "One Step Back, One Giant Leap Forward," Feature Article, May 2006
Leaving Earth orbit on a three-day translunar traverse requires a velocity increase of 3,100 meters per second; capturing into a preferred lunar orbit requires a velocity decrease of 1,100 m/s; and descent to the lunar surface requires a further decrease of 1,900 m/s.
A mission that required Earth orbit rendezvous as well as rendezvous in lunar orbit is termed "EOR-LOR." A mission that injected directly to the moon (bypassing Earth orbital operations) and returned directly from the surface of the moon (bypassing lunar-orbital operations) was termed "direct-direct."
The final step in the selection process was to compare the relative cost and risks of the two remaining lunar mission architectures.

Stepping onto other planets to perform scientific investigations yourself is an old dream.

 One Step Closer by String Cheese Incident CD
The deluge of String Cheese Incident live albums makes a studio outing by the Colorado jam band seem like a rarity, when, in fact, the group regularly releases a disc of new songs every two or three years.
Singer/songwriter Jim Lauderdale co-pens three tunes here, most notably the swaying "Big Compromise" (with guitarist/vocalist Billy Nershi), while Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter contributes to the "45th of November," a surging track that proves to be the album's highlight.
Over the course of ONE STEP CLOSER, each member of the quintet writes (or co-writes) at least one tune in a wonderfully democratic fashion that embodies the spirit of SCI.
