NASA was established more than 50 years ago and has been a world leader in studies of our home planet. In October 2005 NASA decided to share their series of the stunning ‘Blue Marble’ images. The satellite photos were divided into 12 calendar months and provided a detailed overview at an entire year in the life of our planet.

Each image took up 10 Gigabytes of hard disk space. To be able to understand how much 10 Gigabytes really is, you can think of that each image consists of 5000 pictures taken with a typical digital camera.

Two years later they are probably still the largest zoomable images ever seen on the Internet. Thanks to advanced zoom technology it is possible for NASA to manage and study our earth by images using any Internet connection.

During the recent years it has become possible to buy expensive products over the Internet. You can buy everything from clothes, cars to expensive furniture. Unfortunately you still have to make a decision for the product based on one or a few images – often in poor quality.

Several studies have shown that the most significant barrier in modern e-commerce is the lack of quality product images – more specific the lack of sufficient image details or resolution. Customers can’t “experience and feel” the products in the same way as they were holding them.

The explanation is that high quality images take up a lot of disk space and increase the download time. It is inappropriate to let Internet users wait several seconds for a high quality image each time the user is viewing a product.

Another barrier is the increasing use of mobile devices like PDAs and mobile phones. It is still too hard making a decision for a product on a 240 x 320 pixel display on a mobile phone if the product image is 1680 x 1050 pixels.

But how can it be possible to zoom even large images like NASA’s 10Gb satellite images by use of an Internet Connection while webmasters are struggling to limit sizes of their web images?

By combining and re-scaling existing technologies for other purposes and goals, it has become possible to see and almost feel tiny details of any e-Commerce product in the same way as you can study every detail of even large satellite images.

E-Consultant Sonja Jacobsen explains the controversial mix of NASA technology and existing web technology “as a way to move forward in a competitive market” and “almost all e-shops will be able to present their products with zoomable pictures within 2-3 years with similar technologies”.

The late sixties and the early seventies saw a flurry of activity at the NASA headquarters as various manned missions to the moon were executed one after the other. Christopher Freville reasons that the race to the moon was basically triggered by the Cold War between the US and the former Soviet Union. Their battle for supremacy in missile technology gave birth to powerful rockets which had immense lifting power. According to John F. Kennedy, the former president of the USA, launching a spacecraft to take man to the moon and return him safely back to earth would prove beyond the shadow of a doubt to the Soviets and the rest of the world, the powerful capabilities of the US’ rocket technology. His dream came true on July 20, 1969 when Mission Commander Neil Alden Armstrong and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin Eugene ‘Buzz’ Aldrin, Jr. became the first men who stepped on the moon.

Every mission to the moon cost more than $300 million which was a massive amount of money. The bulk of this amount was spent on the rockets that would be powerful enough to lift the spacecraft and push it beyond escape velocity. In an effort to reduce the cost of each mission, the development of a reusable spacecraft was proposed. Christopher Freville points out that the Space Shuttle was created to fulfill this specific need. Shaped in the form of an airplane, the shuttle would be launched into space like a regular rocket. However, while returning back to earth, it would glide back to a runway without power for propulsion.

Officially, the Space Shuttle is termed as a Space Transportation System. The Shuttles are routinely used for conducting scientific space experiments, launching interplanetary probes and numerous satellites, and the construction and servicing of the international space station. Christopher Freville explains that during launch, the shuttle is fitted with an external fuel tank that is dark orange-colored and a pair of solid rocket boosters. The tail of the shuttle houses three main engines which are fueled by liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen stored in the external tank. The solid rocket boosters have solid fuel and once they are in operation, they cannot be shut off. The twin rocket boosters and the three main engines of the shuttle provide the thrust for lifting the payload into orbit. The two rocket boosters operate for the first two minutes of the flight which constitutes the first stage of the ascent. Thereafter, they are released and allowed to fall back into the ocean. The boosters are then retrieved from the ocean for reuse in subsequent missions. The rest of the ascent in powered by the three main engines housed in the shuttle. After the shuttle goes into orbit around the earth, the external tank is jettisoned towards the earth. As the tank falls through the atmosphere it burns up and totally disintegrates.

A fleet of Shuttles has been in operation since the early 1980s and is scheduled to be retired in 2010. The spacecrafts would have then been in operation for 30 years estimates Christopher Freville with over 130 missions of which two ended in loss of life of the entire flight crew and the loss of the vehicle as well.

From the stars to the planets in our solar system, from nebulas to galaxies, a first time telescope is a great way to make it possible for you to view the heavens. In this article about first time telescopes, you will find out about: * What can you see with a telescope? * How to buy a telescope? * Tips to buy your first time telescope A first time telescope has many benefits that it can offer you. A first time telescope is always an amazing instrument. Imagine having an instrument that can never become exhausted. The universe has placed billions upon billions of objects in the heavens, and with a first time telescope, you are enabled to start navigating, finding, and enjoying the vast universe we occupy. ::: What Can You See With A Telescope? ::: Moon – The moon offers many viewing opportunities, being so close to us, the Moon’s craters can be viewed in great detail. Planets – Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, and some of the other planets in our solar system can be viewed with detail. Saturn shows us its rings, which made Galileo think that Saturn had ears many years ago! You can also see the moons of Saturn and Jupiter. Distant Objects – The first time telescope, especially a good first time telescope can show you great views of Nebula in the Orion constellation, and several galaxies in other parts of the heavens. Your first time telescope can see much more space objects than the ones stated, however, this will help you realize the huge benefits in owning a first time telescope of your own. Please bear in mind that most department stores, toy store telescopes may not show you any detail, even though it may say on the nice packaging. ::: How To Buy A Telescope? ::: A first time telescope is not one to gloss over, a telescope after all is a scientific instrument. The best place to buy your first time telescope is either from a dedicated telescope / astronomy store or online from a dedicated telescope / astronomy retailer. All too often people to satisfy the desire to view the objects in the sky, go out and buy any telescope they can find. I can’t complain as that is how I got my first telescope. Soon after, I realized that that is not the best way to go. My first time telescope purchased from a department store was shortly relegated and never used again. The poor mount made turning the telescope easy, but was no use with keeping the telescope stable to view objects in space. Most $150+ telescopes can be a great first time telescope, especially if they have been purchased from dedicated telescope sellers. Another benefit with going to a store that specializes in telescopes, is that you can tell them about your hopes and aims of a telescope, which will help them find a telescope for your needs, rather than simply getting what first time telescope is available. ::: Tips To Buy Your First Time Telescope ::: After years of looking up at the stars, I have a few tips for buying a telescope. You will need to know where things are in the sky, so make sure you have a star atlas. Even better would be to get a great book called Turn Left At Orion, which will help you with getting the best out of your first time telescope. You can find out more about this great book on our site. Another tip I can offer you is to get the best telescope you can afford, as these good quality first time telescopes will be one which will last for years.

Finding the right golf course to consider your home course is often a matter of finding the one closes to the home and playing on it on a regular basis.

However, even the poorest golfers will tire of playing the same course over and over and after a few dozen trips down the same fairway. However, may find they play better when they hit a different course on occasion and the Black Rock golf club is such a course.

About the course.

With a slope rating of 121 from the white tees and 124 from the blue, the multiple tees at every tee box makes the course challenging and yet fun for golfers of every skill level.

The holes

The 18 holes course cuts through the Shenandoah Valley for the front nine. Then through the Appalachian Mountains on the back nine, creating a scenic view of western Maryland. Not many courses can boost a difference in areas to play on.

The fairways

Each fairway is carved into the landscape and Black Rock golf club offers an amazingly large practice green. They also boast a complete chipping area and sand trap for more practice before hitting the first tee. Bent grass of each green offers straight putting chances and will grab a lifted ball onto the green and hold it for the first putt.

The first hole, a Par 5 of 465 yards, all the way the white tee of the 18th hole at 386 yards, each hole offers a view of nature.

Water Hazards

Water hazards come into play on four holes, beginning with number four. The short hole may appear easy but any ball that sails over the green will end up swimming on the bottom of a lake. Lakes?

Hole number 8 has a small lake around the green. This 396 yard par 4 hole and on hole 13, a double dog leg to the right has water on the left side of the front of the green. This is also guarded by a trio of sand traps.

The final hole is a straight run to end the round. The 386 yard par four has water immediately in front of the green. The second shot will need to sail the water or lay up and use a wedge to place the ball on the green for a good finish. Those who miss this shot may find themselves swimming.

The Black Rock Golf Club is a course not for the faint of heart, it is designed to make the player strive for the best and hopefully stay dry in the process. Not a beginners course as the views may be too much of a distraction.
