  1. Orbimage-4 on A New Kind of War · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    BBC Sci/tech has a good article on satellite recon. Orbimage-4 is a private remote-sensing
    satellite with unique capabilities. It carries a
    camera that takes images in 200 spectral bands - designed to analyse surface composition.

  2. Oh' so many options on The Question Of Too Many Linux Distributions · · Score: 1

    I've recently started down this golden road of linux wonderland and had no idea as to what distro to start with. For the beginner, it's impossible to filter through all the hype. So, hearing more about Redhat than any other I started out with 6.2. I've since had folks tell me to go with Mandrake, SuSe, etc. There will always be opinions. However, if one or two distros win the popularity contest, then they're going to be the ones that get the MS users up off their knees.

  3. Keeping the perspective on Universe Teeming With Black Holes · · Score: 1

    You are looking at images of stellar members, that may have formed (roughly) 7.5 billion years before the formation of the earth. "Far out! man"

  4. Nice game of chicken anyone? on Code for Running GPS Satellites Stolen · · Score: 1
