THE DAY IN SPACE
________________
In today's space news from SpaceRef:
-- Lift off! 17:45 UT Lift-off of Soyuz and ESA's Mars Express
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=11679
Mars Express and Beagle 2 are on their way to Mars after a successful launch from Baikonur Cosmodrome
earlier today.
-- International Gemini Observatory celebrates success of new Canadian-built system
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=11677
"Today at the meeting of the Canadian Astronomical Society (CASCA) in Waterloo, Ontario, the seven-nation
Gemini Observatory released one of the first images captured using an innovative Canadian-built instrument
commissioned recently at its 8-metre Gemini North Telescope on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. The new image reveals
the core of the globular cluster M13, the Hercules Star Cluster, in unprecedented detail."
-- Joint Statement by President George W. Bush and President Vladimir V. Putin on U.S.-Russian Cooperation
in Space
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewpr.html?pid=11673
"We confirm our mutual aspiration to ensure the continued assembly and viability of the International Space
Station as a world-class research facility, relying on our unprecedented experience of bilateral and multilateral
interaction in space. We reaffirm our commitment to the mission of human space flight and are prepared to take
energetic steps to enhance our cooperation in the application of space technology and techniques."
-- Business Modernization: Improvements Needed in Management of NASA's Integrated Financial
Management Program, GAO-03-507
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewsr.html?pid=9320
"The core financial module, if implemented as planned, may provide some improvement to NASAs accounting
system environment. However, NASA is not following key best practices for acquiring and implementing IFMP.
In acquiring IFMP components, NASA is facing risks in understanding dependencies among commercial
components. NASA has not analyzed the interdependencies among selected and proposed IFMP components,
and it does not have a methodology for doing so."
