This morning NASA lost another one--the Glory Satellite, which was supposed to study atmospheric aerosols (http://glory.gsfc.nasa.gov/). Several news outlets, including the Wall Street Journal, are reporting the loss of the Glory satellite. NASA has an update on their web site as well: http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/Glory/main/index.html Linda Zellmer -- Linda Zellmer Government Information & Data Services Librarian 415 Malpass Library Macomb, IL 61455 [log in to unmask] Phone: 309-298-2723 Fax: 309-298-2791
