Custom-Built Machining Centers Create Telescope Mirrors
Mar 31 2006

Each mirror segment requires 18 weeks of machine time,
two weeks for heat treatment, and a week for inspection.
The mirror segments are shipped to another company for
months of polishing.

The JWST is scheduled for launch in June 2013, effectively
replacing the Hubble Space Telescope. The JWST will study
the earliest galaxies and some of the first stars formed after
the Big Bang.

I have a few Martini recipes I can share... if you don't mind hair
growing in your throat ;-)

America: Land of the Free, Because of the Brave

 

Yep. Attributed to FDR... called variously FDR Martini or Dirty
Martini... does improve the flavor. I haven't decided yet the
cause... probably just the brine.

bit of olive juice, use the cap of olive jar as a strainer.

The ultimate alcoholic drink recipe:

1. Alcohol (first choice: ethanol - the other alcohols will work, for a
while.)
2. Enough other crap so that you can
A) get it down without throwing up
B) pretend that you're drinking it because you "like the taste".


Q: Do you know the difference between a wino and a connoisseur?
A: The connoisseur takes the bottle out of the paper sack before he
drinks it.
