These were monthly tea and coffee events. Fabulous scenes that are not reproduced in womens gathering today because times have changed, doubled as and over crowing overflowing ashtrays and martini hours and just sort of being there to support each other and going through something very few will ever experience. The way the wives dont with the pressure was very different. You have the pressure of your husband and the pressure of the media. And the most dreaded moment, even more than the possibility of something going wrong on the launch pad, was opposed flight press conference. This was the moment when all the wives would have to walk out on their suburban lawn, face the cameras and give a statement and receiving very little formal coaching from nasa besides what they heard back in their air force and navy days which was feed your husband a Good Breakfast of steak and eggs so he doesnt get white headed up in the air. These women were basically just told to act pictureperfect and so they
Provision that the Defense Department has been using in order to buy Russian Helicopters for afghanistan. This practice has been met without the action and was objectionable in it again and became more objectionable as the russians continue to supply Bashar Alassad and based upon what they have done in crimea, it should be entirely unacceptable.

[applause] thank you. My presentation today is about the Mars Exploration rovers with robotic laboratories that began operating eight years ago on mars. One of which took several years to explore mars today and is as most of you know i am sure, curiosity i know theyre rover landed just a few weeks ago and i will have a few words to say about that at the end of my presentation. My story is about how people relate to these robotic systems. The Mars Exploration Rover Mission also known as mer challenge is how we usually think about the role of robots in Space Exploration. It provides a new way of understanding how computer tools and a proper social operation can be orchestrated to extend human capabilities. Whether flying by beautiful blue neptune like voyager in the 1970s, orbiting saturn like you see today, or roving mars, like mer. The spacecraft must be computer controlled the cut is the communication time delay at the. Light and their great distance makes it impractical to control th
