		Apollo 13, the third manned lunar landing and exploration mission, had been tentatively scheduled in July 1969 for launch in March 1970, but by the end of the year the launch date had been shifted to April.
		The tanks were designed to operate at pressures of 865 to 935 pounds per square inch (psi) (6,000 to 6,450 kilopascals) and temperatures between -340 deg.
		Unfortunately for Apollo 13, the tank functioned normally for the first 56 hours of the mission, when the heaters and the fans were energized during routine operations.

		Operation ANACONDA: During March 2002, members of the 3 PPCLI Battle Group were in the mountains of Paktia Province east of Gardez on Op ANACONDA, a U.S.-led coalition effort to search the mountains for Al-Qaeda and Taliban fighters, capture them, and destroy their shelters.
		Two CC-130 Hercules aircraft from Op APOLLO were assigned to Op CARAVAN, from 7 June to 6 July, to assist in the airlifting of a UN peacekeeping mission into the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
		Because of the complexity of Op APOLLO, the logistic units originally deployed to support the Air Force detachments, the 3 PPCLI Battle Group and the Canadian Naval Task Group were consolidated on April 17, 2002, to form a National Support Unit (NSU).

	APOLLO
		A total of four lunar retroreflectors are functional: three Apollo reflectors from Apollo 11, 14, and 15 (three times bigger), and one French-built, Soviet landed (unmanned) unit from the Luna 21 mission.
		A significant part of the challenge of lunar range modeling is converting this point-to-point measurement into a distance between the center-of-mass of the earth and the center-of-mass of the moon.
		APOLLO has benefited from the professional expertise of: Larry Carey, Peter Doherty, Erik Swanson, Sterling Fisher, Tim van Wechel, Allan Myers, Mark Klaene, Russell Owen, and Jeff Morgan.

		With a sleek design, and clean, quiet operation, the APOLLO 1 Applicator provides you with a comprehensive, yet inexpensive solution for high precision, high accuracy print and apply requirements.
		The APOLLO Applicator is actually capable of precision greater than the ability of many label converters to produce a consistent spacing from label to label, due to the web tension variances of some types of presses.
		APOLLO 1 is also great for printing labels in remote locations, thus eliminating the need for additional computers.

	Tax Analysts: Free Bulletins: Accounting: VOLUME 1 ISSUE 12 SPARE PARTS ARE NOT INVENTORY
		Some of Apollo's customers, who resold computers, entered into "shared maintenance agreements," under which the customers used their own labor to repair their customers' computers, but occasionally used Apollo's parts repair services and rotable spare parts pool by returning a defective part and paying an "exchange price" for a replacement part.
		Apollo followed the practice of substituting its rotable spare parts in the customer's computer to avoid the computer being inoperative during the time required to repair the original part or to replace the rotable part with the repaired original one.
		The gas was required to maintain the pressure necessary to operate the pipeline, its volume remained constant, and it was unrecoverable when the operation of the pipeline ended.

	CTV.ca \| Ground troops say Operation Apollo medal unfair
		The Department of National Defence is putting the final touches on a campaign medal to be awarded to all soldiers who participated in Operation Apollo -- Canada's contribution to the U.S.-led campaign against terrorism.
		The problem, soldiers say privately, is that the medal won't sufficiently differentiate between infantry soldiers on the ground in Afghanistan - who live in rough conditions - and others in the navy, airforce and support roles who have served outside the country in relative comfort.
		A report prepared by a group of soldiers here highlighted earlier this year the wide gap in the benefits made available to those serving in the Persian Gulf and those living in the inhospitable southern Afghanistan desert.

		Operation Apollo represents the largest deployment of Canadian troops since the Korean war.
		The first indication that it is operation appalling is that the 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, which is supposed to be sent over and is on 48 hours’ notice, is about the same size as the elite regiment formerly known as the airborne.
		When our military goes on war game operations or exercises with the Americans, the Americans keep an extra squadron on standby because our equipment often breaks down.

		LLR also provides the strongest limits to date on variability of the gravitational constant, the best measurement of the de Sitter precession rate, and is relied upon to generate accurate astronomical ephemerides.
		Relative background immunity permits operation in daylight and at full moon, resulting in better sampling of the lunar orbit.
		These factors together will move LLR into a new regime of millimeter precision, pushing tests of gravity into a range where violations of general relativity are motivated by the introduction of scalar fields.

		This decision-making was complicated by several factors including the rapid pace of events following 9/11, the size of the deployment (the largest Canadian deployment since the Korean War), and the requirement to integrate operationally into the American force structure.
		Commodore Thiffault then described the overall operation, Enduring Freedom and the legal basis for Canadian military involvement, including the clear division of responsibilities between participants, a clear and enforceable mandate and the acceptance of Canadian involvement by the parties involved.
