	Rosetta (software) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rosetta is a lightweight dynamic translation emulator for Mac OS X distributed by Apple.
		Rosetta is included, pre-installed with the operating system, on Macintosh computers that use Intel's Core processors.
		Rosetta was also the internal codename of the handwriting recognition system developed by Apple for the Newton OS.

	Rosetta Stone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Rosetta Stone is a dark grey-pinkish granite stone (originally thought to be basalt in composition) with writing on it in two languages, Egyptian and Greek, using three scripts, Hieroglyphic, Demotic Egyptian and Greek.
		The Rosetta Stone is stone three in a series of three, a stone each for Ptolemy III, Ptolemy IV, and the Rosetta Stone, for Ptolemy V. Leap Year is implemented in Stone 1, the Stone of Canopus, for Ptolemy III.
		Rosetta Stone is also used as a metaphor to refer to anything that is a critical key to a process of decryption, translation, or a difficult problem, e.g., "the Rosetta stone of immunology", "thalamo-cortical rhythms, the Rosetta stone of a subset of neurological disorders", "Arabidopsis, the Rosetta stone of flowering time (fossils)".

	Rosetta Stone
		The Rosetta Stone, a fl basalt slab bearing an inscription that was the key to the deciphering of Egyptian hieroglyphics and thus to the foundation of modern Egyptology.
		The Rosetta stone is dated to March 196 BC, in the 9th year of Ptolemy V. The background to the setting up of the stela was the confirmation of the control of the Ptolemaic kings over Egypt.
		It appears that it was decided that the best way to emphasise the legitimacy of the 13 year old Ptolemy V in the eyes of the Egyptian elite was to re-emphasise his traditional royal credentials with a coronation ceremony in the city of Memphis, and to affirm his royal cult throughout Egypt.

	ESA - Space Science - Home - Rosetta overview
		The Rosetta lander has to be stowed to survive the cruise and eventually to self-eject from the spacecraft.
		Rosetta will be the first space mission to journey beyond the main asteroid belt and rely solely on solar cells for power generation, rather than the traditional radio-isotope thermal generators.
		Rosetta will be the first spacecraft to examine from close proximity how a frozen comet is transformed by the warmth of the Sun.

	Rosetta Launches to Comet :: Astrobiology Magazine ::
		Rosetta will be reactivated for planetary flybys, which will be used to modify its trajectory through gravity assist maneuvers, or asteroid flybys, observation of asteroids being one of the mission's secondary objectives.
		Rosetta will be reactivated for good in January 2014, as it enters a six-month approach phase, closing in slowly on the nucleus of comet Churyumov-Gerasimenko.
		Rosetta will continue its observations of the comet's nucleus for over a year, at least until December 2015, and will have a ringside seat to monitor the 'awakening' of the comet's activity as it comes closer to the Sun and reached its perihelion, in October 2015.

		Rosetta lives with her alcoholic prostitute mother in a camping trailer at a run down campground called The Grand Canyon.
		She is in her late teens, doesn't have any friends (except one she meets during the course of the story) or even communicates much with other people, and is only interested in getting a regular job and living a normal life.
		We follow Rosetta as she travels her city by foot and bus looking for work, catching fish to eat from an urban river, and tentatively letting one other person into her routines.

		Rosetta is planned to reach the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in 2014.
		A final inspection of Rosetta's Ariane 5 rocket at the Kourou spaceport on Friday morning revealed a foam chunk, measuring 15 by 10 centimetres (six by four inches), had detached from the vehicle's main fuel tank.
		Rosetta is headed on an interplanetary trajectory, so the rocket has to be aimed at a very specific point in space with a specific velocity.

		Rosetta was delayed from January after an upgraded version of the Ariane 5 booster failed to orbit its satellite payloads last December.
		Rosetta only had several weeks to get off the ground due to strict orbital mechanics laws that govern the trajectory of the probe to its initial target -- comet Wirtanen.
		Rosetta's mission will be the first to orbit a comet nucleus and will release a small lander to make the first controlled touchdown on the surface of a comet.

	village voice > film > Rosetta; The Insider; My Best Fiend by J. Hoberman
		Rosetta's stylized rough-and-tumble vérité is established from the onset, as its teenage protagonist slams through a factory, fighting ineffectually and violently to keep the job from which, for reasons never specified, she's just been fired.
		She's not quite pretty but too fresh-faced to be dowdy, often expressionless but also impulsive ("You only drink and fuck," she screams at her mother as the prelude to one of several scuffles).
		Rosetta was shot in the same drab neighborhoods as La Promesse, but one could easily imagine the movie transposed to the U.S.- although I wonder if a career-conscious American indie would care to present so needy and (relatively) unattractive a protagonist, or plot a trajectory of such sustained anxiety.

		Norsam's High Density Rosetta (HD-Rosetta) provides analog storage of information and images on nickel plates that last for thousands of years.
		Since the Rosetta's information is etched into nickel, it is never affected by electromagnetic radiations as is often the case with digital data.
		With its magnetic immunity, a life expectancy of at least 1,000 years and a temperature threshold of 500° C, nickel is the HD-Rosetta material of choice.
