The Student Astronauts CAPE CANAVERAL, FL In a news briefing this morning, NASA Administrator Sean O'Keefe announced the winning names for the Mars Exploration Rovers. A contest run for NASA by the LEGO Company and The Planetary Society whittled approximately 10,000 entries down to 33, from which NASA chose the winning student and her entry: Sofi Collis, a 9 year old 3rd grade student from Arizona. In her essay, she submitted Spirit and Opportunity as her suggested names for the two rovers. The first spacecraft is scheduled to launch today (June 8), and the second on June 25. These "robotic geologist" rovers arrive at Mars in January 2004.

Extractions: Boston, Mass. This is a 20 th Century subject whose time to emerge, as a physics subdiscipline, has come [see J. Stewart, American J. Physics , May 1950]. Our interdisciplinary science group [www.trincoll.edu/depts/psych/homeokinetics] has been occupied with the study, within a physics for complex systems, for 27 years. Here is a single page overview. Equations of change People are not ping pong balls. They are physical-chemical atomistic units persons who engage in a very broad temporal range of intrapersonal as well as interpersonal interactions. The range in time scaling ratio between the former to the latter in our group's definition of complexity makes the collective system complex. Action is measured by the integrated product of energy-time. The social collective may either be a small group who live or work together successfully, an organized polity, a civilization, or a species. That definition of complexity, at this level of units and organization, is not measured in h units of action, but as a "factory day" of action of H o for people, H

Extractions: POND, JOHN (c. 1767-1836), English astronomer-royal, was born about 1767 in London, where his father made a fortune in trade. Re entered Trinity College, Cambridge, at the age of sixteen, but took no degree, his course being interrupted by severe pulmonary attacks which compelled a long residence abroad. In 1800 he settled at Westbury near Bristol, and began to determine star-places with a fine altitude and azimuth circle of 21/2 ft. diameter by E. Troughton~ His demonstration in 1806 (Phil. Trans. xcvi. 420) of a change of form in the, Greenwich mural quadrant led to the introduction of astronomical circles at the Royal Observatory, and to his own appointment as its head. He was elected a fellow of the Royal Society oft the 26th of February 1807; he married and went to live in London in the same year, and in 1811 succeeded Maskelyne as astronomer-royal. See Mem. Roy.

Antoniadi, published in our Journal [1] and in the Bulletin of the Sociétè Astronomique de France,[2] and also in a history of the Flammarion Observatory, Juvisy, in the 1996 Yearbook of Astronomy, [3] I referred to the exquisite drawings by this famous observer, who directed the Association's Mars Section from 1896 to 1917. Antoniadi's post-Juvisy notebooks are still missing; as I have written elsewhere, they were presumably deliberately destroyed by their originator during the Second World War. R. J. McKim

Extractions: J. Brit. Astron. Assoc., or Why Neptune was not searched for at Starfield by Richard Baum With the discovery of an eighth magnitude object near Delta Capricorni on 1846 September 23, J. G. Galle and H. d'Arrest at Berlin successfully concluded the search for Neptune, then the farthest known planet from the Sun. The event was promptly acclaimed, and designated one of the greatest triumphs of celestial mechanics. News reached England on September 30. Next day J. R. Hind announced the discovery in a letter to the London Times where it was avidly read by the owner of the largest telescope in England, William Lassell (17991880), the wealthy Liverpool brewer.[1] That same day Sir John Herschel scribbled a note to Lassell urging him to look for 'satellites with all possible expedition!!'[2] The letter arrived at Starfield, Lassell's Liverpool home the following day, October 2; that night he logged his first observation of Neptune. Within days he had made two extraordinary observations. On the 3rd, he thought the planet encircled by a ring, and on the 10th he had his first glimpse of its principal moon, Triton.[3] But these were trifles compared to what Edward S. Holden, director of the Lick Observatory, disclosed in 1892.[4] In 1876 Holden spent several months in England. He travelled widely and struck up many friendships. He was particularly taken by Lassell with whom he had previously corresponded, and visited the family home at Maidenhead, a large property called Ray Lodge. As a result of this intimacy he became privy to a family secret; a circumstance first disclosed to him by Mrs Lassell, but later confirmed and explained in greater detail by Lassell himself. Lassell however, had no intention of publicly divulging it 'during the lifetime of Professor Adams' in case it revived bad memories of a painful episode in his life. As it happened John Couch Adams outlived Lassell by twelve years, dying in 1892.
