	Project Vote Smart - American Government, Elections, Candidates and Voting
		Project Vote Smart, the nation's premier political research organization, is hiring at its wilderness research retreat in the Montana Rockies.
		Project Vote Smart, a citizen's organization, has developed a Voter's Self-Defense System to provide you with the necessary tools to self-govern effectively: abundant, accurate, unbiased and relevant information.
		With that being said, Project Vote Smart is proud to announce its entry into the political blogosphere, with the introduction of its blog: "The Voter's Speakeasy".

	SMART-1 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Therefore 1 kg of propellant (1/350 to 1/300 of the total mass of the spacecraft) produced a delta-v of about 45 m/s.
		SMART-1 was launched September 27, 2003 together with Insat 3E and eBird 1, by an Ariane 5 rocket from the Guiana Space Center in French Guiana.

	SMART-1
		The first spacecraft in the series of SMART (Small Missions for Advanced Research in Technology) probes to be launched by the European Space Agency.
		SMART is a program of small, relatively low-cost missions to test new technologies that will eventually be used on more ambitious projects.
		It was launched on Sep. 27, 2003 from Kourou by an Ariane-5 Cyclade (along with two other satellites that formed the primary payload) and arrived in lunar orbit on Nov. 14, 2004.

		Smart 1 or SMART-1 is a European Space Agency satellite that orbits around Earth's moon, Luna.
		The solar arrays make 1190 W available for powering the thruster, giving a nominal thrust of 68 mN, hence an acceleration of 0.2 mm/s² or 0.7 m/s per hour.
		It is also mapping the Moon's Peaks of Eternal Light (PELs), eerie mountaintops which are permanently bathed in sunlight and surrounded by craters shaded in eternal darkness.

	Probe crashes into Moon's surface (Smart 1)
		Smart 1 has also produced detailed maps of the Moon's chemical make-up, to help refine theories about its birth.
		Smart 1 was launched in September 2003 as a technology demonstrator.
		Smart 1 successfully finished its mission, the last act of which was to hit as hard and kick up as much ejecta as possible.

		SMART 1 - Peering for ice on the moon
		SMART stands for Small Missions for Advanced Research and Technology.
		But a SMART project is also required to be cheap - about one-fifth of the cost of a major science mission for ESA - which is why SMART-1 has no launcher of its own.

	SMART-1 Mission Extension Approved
		The XSM solar monitor has measured the temporal variations of the Sun in the spectral range from 1 to 10 keV, and has detected number of flares during the cruise, in particular showing the changes in the flare continuum and Fe line.
		Due to its small, 1 milli-radian, field-of-view (FOV) and telemetry limitations, the SIR spectrometer will only cover a few percent of the surface during the first 6 months.
		For the first six months, the incident solar X-ray flux is expected to be sufficiently strong to derive a fluorescence map of the southern hemisphere for Mg, Si, and Al for a minimum surface coverage of 50% with an effective resolution of 60 km and sufficient sensitivity.

	Spacecraft: The Smart One
		SMART is an acronym for "Small Missions for Advanced Research in Technology," and obviously SMART-1 is the first of these small missions, as well as the first ESA lunar mission, and only the fourth mission to the Moon since the Soviet Union's Luna 24 in 1976.
		It is able to deliver 70 mN of thrust with a specific impulse (the ratio between thrust and propellant consumption) 5 to 10 times better than traditional chemical thrusters and for much longer durations (months or even years, compared to the few minutes' operating times typical of traditional chemical engines).
		SMART-1 is an interesting and valuable return to the Moon, and I'm glad to see ESA investing in this type of mission and technology development, which I think is much more of a contribution than their Galileo system, for example.
