February 20 1965 – Ranger 8 crashes into the Moon, after a successful mission of photographing possible landing sites for the Apollo program astronauts.Ranger 8 was one of the spacecraft of the Ranger program, a series of unmanned space missions by NASA intended to obtain the first close-up images of the surface of the Moon to help select landing sites for future Apollo missions and to be used for scientific study.. In its mission in 1965 it transmitted 7,137 photographs of the lunar surface before it crashed into the Moon as planned. This was a second successful, after Ranger 7, mission of the series; all the six previous attempts failed. The design and purpose of Ranger 8 was very similar to that of Ranger 7..Its sole purpose was to document the surface of the moon...

March 23 1965 – Gemini 3: NASA launches the United States' first 2-person crew (Gus Grissom, John Young) into Earth orbit.Gemini 3 was the first manned mission in NASA's Gemini program, the second American manned space program. On March 23, 1965, the spacecraft, nicknamed Molly Brown Rome, performed the 7th manned US spaceflight, and the 17th manned spaceflight overall (including X-15 flights over 100 kilometers)..before mission control functions were shifted to the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston, Texas...at the end of the first orbit, over Corpus Christi, Texas..The only major incident during the orbital phase involved a contraband corned beef sandwich that Young had snuck on board..The crumbs it released could have wreaked havoc with the craft's electronics, so the crewmen were reprimanded when they returned to Earth...The mission insignia was not worn by the flight crew as a patch, like those from Gemini 5 onwards...
Its objective was to develop space travel techniques in support of Apollo, which had the goal of landing men on the Moon. All manned Gemini flights were launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida using the Titan II Gemini launch vehicle ("GLV")..Originally introduced on December 7 as Mercury Mark II, it was re-christened Project Gemini on January 3, 1962, from the fact that the spacecraft would hold 2 crewmen.. Gemini is also the name of the 3rd constellation of the Zodiac and its twin stars, Castor and Pollux...
Slayton also intended for first choice of mission commands to be given to the 4 remaining active astronauts of the Mercury 7..who was blamed by some in NASA management for the problematic reentry of Aurora 7..Along with the deaths of Grissom, White, and Chaffee in the fire(Char) of Apollo 1, this final arrangement helped determine the makeup of the 1st 7 Apollo crews, and who would be in position for a chance to be the first to walk on the Moon...

Some of the moons of Saturn, including Pandora and Prometheus, act as shepherd moons to confine the rings and prevent them from spreading out.. Pan and Atlas cause weak, linear density waves in Saturn's rings that have yielded more reliable calculations of their masses..
Saturn has at least 62 moons, 53 of which have formal names.. Titan, the largest, comprises more than 90% of the mass in orbit around Saturn, including the rings..Saturn's second largest moon, Rhea, may have a tenuous ring system of its own, along with a tenuous atmosphere..Many of the other moons are very small: 34 are less than 10 km in diameter and another 14 less than 50 km but larger than 10 km.. Traditionally, most of Saturn's moons have been named after Titans of Greek mythology. Titan is the only satellite in the Solar System with a major atmosphere in which a complex organic chemistry occurs...
Saturn has a prominent ring system that consists of nine continuous main rings and three discontinuous arcs, composed mostly of ice particles with a smaller amount of rocky debris and dust. 62 known moons orbit the planet; 53 are officially named. This does not include the hundreds of "moonlets" within the rings...Saturn has been known since prehistoric times.. In ancient times, it was the most distant of the five known planets in the solar system (excluding Earth) and thus a major character in various mythologies..Ptolemy, a Greek living in Alexandria, observed an opposition of Saturn, which was the basis for his determination of the elements of its orbit...Saturn is the most distant of the five planets easily visible to the naked eye, the other four being Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter..Saturn in astrology is the ruling planet of Capricorn and, traditionally, Aquarius...

Hexagon Storm On Saturn's North Pole..The total of the internal angles of any hexagon is 720°..."In space no one can hear you scream."
The rings of Saturn are the most extensive planetary ring system of any planet in the Solar System. They consist of countless small particles, ranging in size from micrometres to metres, that orbit about Saturn. The ring particles are made almost entirely of water ice, with a trace component of rocky material..A more traditional version of the disrupted moon theory is that the rings are composed of debris from a moon 400 to 600 km in diameter, slightly bigger than Mimas. The last time there were collisions large enough to be likely to disrupt a moon that large was during the Late Heavy Bombardment ..The Cassini UVIS team, led by Larry Esposito, used stellar occultation to discover 13 objects, ranging from 27 metres to 10 km across, within the F ring...Dallas, Kane, and Lambert discover that the signal is coming from the derelict alien spacecraft...

In mythology, a lunar deity is a god or goddess associated with or symbolizing the moon. These deities can have a variety of functions and traditions depending upon the culture, but they are often related to or an enemy of the solar deity. Even though they may be related, they are distinct from the solar deity. Lunar deities can be either male or female, and are usually held to be of the opposite sex of the corresponding solar deity. Male lunar deities are somewhat more common worldwide, although female deities are better known in modern times due to the influence of classical Greek and Roman mythology, which held the moon to be female...
Nanna's chief sanctuary at Ur was named E-gish-shir-gal ("house of the great light"). It was at Ur that the role of the En Priestess developed. This was an extremely powerful role held by a princess, most notably Enheduanna, daughter of King Sargon of Akkad, and was the primary cult role associated with the cult of Nanna/Sin...A sanctuary for Sin with Syriac inscriptions invoking his name dating to the 2nd and 3rd centuries CE was found at Sumatar Harabesi in the Tektek mountains, not far from Harran and Edessa...
The name "rosemary" derives from the Latin for "dew" (ros) and "sea" (marinus), or "dew of the sea", because in many locations, it needs no water other than the humidity carried by the sea breeze to live[citation needed]. The plant is also sometimes called anthos, from the ancient Greek word ἄνθος, meaning "flower"...

Apollo 13 was the seventh manned mission in the American Apollo space program and the third intended to land on the Moon. The craft was launched on April 11, 1970, at 13:13 CST from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, but the lunar landing was aborted after an oxygen tank exploded two days later, crippling the service module upon which the Command Module depended. Despite great hardship caused by limited power, loss of cabin heat, shortage of potable water, and the critical need to jury-rig the carbon dioxide removal system, the crew returned safely to Earth on April 17...
The mission was launched at the planned time, 02:13:00 PM EST (19:13:00 UTC) on April 11..En route to the Moon, approximately 200,000 miles (320,000 km) from Earth, Mission Control asked Swigert to turn on the hydrogen and oxygen tank stirring fans, which were designed to destratify the cryogenic contents and increase the accuracy of their quantity readings..The crew initially thought that a meteoroid might have struck the Lunar Module (LM).Without the LM, the accident would certainly have been fatal.While it will remain radioactive for several thousand years, it does not appear to be releasing any of its 3.9 kg of radioactive plutonium-238...
The first American rocket-assisted takeoff (August 12,1941) made use of a Parsons-developed solid-propellant (GALCIT 27 - which provided a 28 lb. maximum thrust for 12 seconds). But tests showed that GALCIT 27 would explode when stored for long periods, so Parsons, Mark M. Mills and Fred S. Miller came up with a more stable fuel (GALCIT 53) in June 1942..

Hilal (Arabic: هلال) is an Arabic term, first developed in pre-Islamic Arabia, meaning crescent moon--specifically, the very slight crescent moon that is first visible after a new moon. Muslims look for the hilal when determining the beginning and end of Islamic months, but they don't worship it. The Quran says: "And from among His Signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Prostrate not to the sun nor to the moon, but prostrate to Allah Who created them, if you (really) worship Him." (41:37). The need to determine the precise time of the appearance of the hilal was one of the inducements for Muslim scholars to study astronomy...
The Crescent Moon Society was a Chinese literary society founded by the poet Xu Zhimo in 1923, which operated until 1931. It was named after The Crescent Moon, a poem by Rabindranath Tagore.

A Mars sample return mission (MSR) would be a spaceflight mission to collect rock and dust samples from Mars and to return them to Earth. Sample return is very powerful type of exploration, because analysis is freed from the time, budget, and space constraints of spacecraft sensors.. All of Earth's laboratories can potentially study a sample..According to Louis Friedman, of The Planetary Society, Mars sample return is often described as the "holy grail" of robotic space missions, due to its scientific return-on-investment...
The return of Mars samples would be beneficial to science by allowing more extensive analysis to be undertaken of the samples than could be done by instruments painstakingly transferred to Mars. Also, the presence of the samples on Earth would allow scientific equipment to be used on stored samples, even years and decades after the sample return mission.SCIM ("Sample Collection for Investigation of Mars") was a low-cost low-risk Mars sample return mission design, proposed in the Mars Scout Program. SCIM would return dust and air samples without landing or orbiting, by dipping through the atmosphere as it collects Mars material...Soil mechanics is a branch of engineering mechanics that describes the behaviour of soils...

For some, the bra remains a symbol of restrictions imposed by society on women: "the classic burning of the bras ... represented liberation from the oppression of the male patriarchy, right down to unbinding yourself from the constrictions of your smooth silhouette." Her book resonated with many women who had been questioning the role of the women in society and their less equal status relative to men. It became associated with the so-called "bra burning movement" because she pointed out how restrictive and uncomfortable a bra in that time period could be..A study published in the European Journal of Cancer studied factors for breast cancer such as breast size and handedness. They discovered that premenopausal women who do not wear bras are less than half as likely to get breast cancer that those who regularly wear a bra...
