- ASTER - Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer [IA][Direct] -
An imaging instrument that will fly on EOS AM-1, a satellite planned for launch in 1998 as part of NASA's Earth Observing System (EOS). ASTER will be used to obtain detailed maps of surface temperature as well as digital elevation maps of surface features.
- Comet Observation [IA][Direct]
- Comet Shoemaker-Levy (JPL) [IA][Direct] -
From July 16 through July 22, 1994, Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 collided with Jupiter. This was the first collision of two solar system objectes ever to be observed, and the effects of the comet impacts on Jupiter have been beyond expectations.
- Electronics/Cabling Fabrication QA Group [IA][Direct] -
Describes the Automated Cable Tester used to check complex cabling.
- IGS Central Bureau [IA][Direct] -
The International GPS Service for Geodynamics (IGS) supports researchers who use satellites in the U.S. Defense Department's Global Positioning System (GPS) for studies in geodynamics.
- Jet Propulsion Laboratory - Scatterometry Projects, NSCAT and SeaWinds [IA][Direct] -
Intended for long term study of subjects such as the global climate, weather changes, air-sea interaction, and the water cycle.
- Jet Propulsion Laboratory Space Exploration Post 509 [IA][Direct] -
Organization that provides students a hands-on experience in science, engineering, and technology.
- JPL/HPCC Earth & Space Sciences Project Home Page [IA][Direct] -
The Earth and Space Sciences (ESS) Project is part of NASA's High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC) Program. It is an experiment to quantify the characteristics of massively parallel computing systems that are required in order to make them productive and useful to Earth and space scientists.
