From my experience of programming against ESRI, I seriously doubt the company will contribute anything back to the community. For instance, in a project I once worked on, we developed custom renderers (i.e. custom icons to be displayed on maps etc.), and back then it was pretty much unsupported. The only way we could get support for this was to contribute our custom renderer to ESRI. Did we get any real support from them? no. But our framwork eventually became ArcGIS version 6's renderer hierarchy templates.
They have a reputation for not contributing anything back. User, beware.
You implicitly assume that only the US will have such a system. As explicitly stated, this is a joint US-Israeli effort. Obviously, Israel is in risk of being attacked by ICBMs from Iran, Syria, Iraq and other arab countries. Don't forget that during the first Gulf War, Israel was hit by over 100 missiles. It looks like they are looking for a good defense system.
I say defense systems are better, in the humane way, than offensive systems. You think otherwise?
Hey, does anyone recall the NSAKey symbol that leaked on a debug version of a DLL in NT 4? (Was that GINA.DLL?) I wonder if it's still in there in later versions...
Can you honestly say that defending the bank accounts of millionaires (assuming they are actually being threatened) is worth the FBIs time and taxpayer money given that there are many more important things they could be spending their time protecting us from other than the scourge of music sharing?
Repeat after me: Copyright infringement is a civil offense, not a criminal one. I'm not sure about American laws, being non-American, but if it isn't such an offense now, it was one prior to the DMCA, and it should be reverted.
If you violate RIAA copyrights, they can sue your ass. You ain't going to be arrested. The FBI shouldn't waste its time on this, and certainly the RIAA should not enjoy taxpayers money on this.
At a distance of over 8 billion miles, Sedna is so far away it is reduced to one picture element (pixel) in the image taken in high-resolution mode with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys. This image sets an upper limit on Sedna's size of 1,000 miles in diameter.
So if the so-called planet is the size of one pixel, how do they expect to see a smaller moon?
And, yes, I'm quite aware of techniques such as extrapolations, anti-aliasing etc. which *may* help extract a smaller-than-1-pixel object using a series of 35 pictures, but I'd speculate that NASA's assertion that Sedna does not have a moon is premature.

This is yet another thing Google will never attempt to do to us.
Google has been at 4.285 billion pages for more than three months straight. The count hasn't increased in a long time... The index is maxed.
Either that, or they're indexing more pages than they are letting on. Don't forget they also have 10K servers for around a year.
or at least, a variation on a dupe.
