5 psl. - National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958". DECLARATION OF POLICY AND PURPOSE SEC. 102. (a) The Congress hereby declares that it is the policy of the United States that activities in space should be devoted to peaceful purposes for the benefit of all mankind.

And even those who can afford most care may find themselves impoverished by a catastrophic medical expenditure." "The shortcomings of our health care system are manifested in other ways as well. For some Americans— especially those who live in remote rural areas or in the inner city— care is simply not available. The quality of medicine varies widely with geography and income. Primary care physicians...
159 psl. - ... infrared (photography) — Pertaining to or designating the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum with wavelengths just beyond the red end of the visible spectrum, such as radiation emitted by a hot body. Invisible to the eye, infrared rays are detected by their thermal and photographic effects. Their wavelengths are longer than those of visible light and shorter than those of radio waves.
104 psl. - The history of the human race is a continual struggle from darkness toward light. It is therefore to no purpose to discuss the use of knowledge ; man wants to know, and when he ceases to do so, he is no longer man.
314 psl. - Great whirls have little whirls, that feed on their velocity ; And little whirls have lesser whirls, and so on to viscosity.
350 psl. - The bulk of the energy is dissipated as heat in the outer and upper atmosphere (above 100,000 feet), which is outside the biosphere. Thus, metals and metal products can be delivered from the extraterrestrial domain for indefinite time periods with virtually no detrimental environmental effects, certainly incomparably smaller effects than if they were produced on Earth. Minerals and Our Planet Except, perhaps, for a very distant speculative future, the only way to obtain the needed metals in needed...
454 psl. - ... gravity and the vacuum of space, which previously confined life to our home planet earth, but they will be commonplace to this generation. Today's children can look ahead confidently to new opportunities and to great new strides that man will make in the 21st century, when they will be in their thirties and forties. Their generation will view the earth as a whole for the first time, and be able to deal with technology, with science, and with philosophy as a unified experience, common to all men...

109 psl. - The first part of the model, called 'correlation between rainfall and runoff', is based upon four inputs: the quantity of rain; the duration of the rainfall; the season Fig. 5. A typical water state recording installation. of the year; the humidity (dry soil absorbs water faster and therefore yields less runoff from a given rain, whereas wet soil tends to become impermeable and therefore a given amount of rain yields more runoff). It is not practical to actually go in the field and measure how wet...
124 psl. - It is possible therefore to measure the concentration of a gas by noting the absorption obtained at one wavelength corresponding to a strong absorption band in the gas and comparing it with the absorption at an adjacent wavelength where the gas does not absorb. This simple technique, however, tends to be subject to interferences...
