200786168Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration c2007. Presumed First Edition First printing. Single sheet sticker of mission patch printed on both sides. Very good. The format is 4.5 inches by 4.5 inches. The design is one square offset over a square of equal size making an eight-pointed 'star'. The base square has the number 122 in the upper left corner the alphanumeric 1E in the upper right corner and part of a graphic design in the lower two corners that blend into the graphic on the main square. The square has an image of the earth and one of a figure of a sailing ship 'morphing' into the space shuttle One the four sides are the crew names of Eyharts o Frick o Poindexter o Walheim o Melvin o Schelgel o Love. On the reverse there is text which reads STS-122 Patch Description The primary objective of the STS-122 mission is to install and outfit the European Space Agency's Columbus laboratory module. Atlantis will rendezvous and dock with the International Space Station ISS on flight day three and Leopold Eyharts will official become a member of the ISS crew replacing Dan Tani who will return to Earth as part of the STS-122 crew. The crew will conduct three spacewalks to prepare the Columbus module and replace a nitrogen tank on the station. The STS-122 patch depicts the continuation of the voyages of early explorers to today's frontier: space. The ship denotes the travels of the early expeditions from the East to the West. The shuttle shows the continuation of that journey along the orbital patch from west to east. A little more than 500 years after Columbus sailed to the new world the STS-122 crew will bring the European laboratory module ":Columbus" to the ISS to usher in a new ear of scientific discovery. NASA and Space Flight Awareness logos. STS-122 was a NASA Space Shuttle mission to the International Space Station ISS flown by the Space Shuttle Atlantis. STS-122 marked the 24th shuttle mission to the ISS and the 121st Space Shuttle flight overall. The mission was also referred to as ISS-1E by the ISS program. The primary objective of STS-122 was to deliver the European Columbus science laboratory built by the European Space Agency ESA to the station. It also returned Expedition 16 Flight Engineer Daniel M. Tani to Earth. Tani was replaced on Expedition 16 by Léopold Eyharts a French Flight Engineer representing ESA. After Atlantis landing the orbiter was prepared for STS-125 the final servicing mission for the Hubble Space Telescope. The original target launch date for STS-122 was December 6 2007 but due to engine cutoff sensor ECO reading errors the launch was postponed to December 9 2007. During the second launch attempt the sensors failed again and the launch was halted. A tanking test on December 18 2007 revealed the probable cause to lie with a connector between the external tank and the shuttle. The connector was replaced and the shuttle launched during the third attempt on February 7 2008. Columbus is a science laboratory that is part of the International Space Station ISS and is the largest single contribution to the ISS made by the European Space Agency ESA. Like the Harmony and Tranquility modules the Columbus laboratory was constructed in Turin Italy by Thales Alenia Space. The functional equipment and software of the lab was designed by EADS in Bremen Germany. It was also integrated in Bremen before being flown to the Kennedy Space Center KSC in Florida in an Airbus Beluga. It was launched aboard Space Shuttle Atlantis on 7 February 2008 on flight STS-122. It is designed for ten years of operation. The module is controlled by the Columbus Control Centre located at the German Space Operations Center part of the German Aerospace Center in Oberpfaffenhofen near Munich Germany. The European Space Agency has spent €1.4 billion about US$2 billion on building Columbus including the experiments it carries and the ground control infrastructure necessary to operate them.

From the publisher: "Calls for deparochialization of educational research Lingard 2006 have directed educational ethnography from the conventional research designs and from the study of single sites and local situations to the study of the circulation of cultural meanings objects and identities in diffuse time-spaces Marcus 1995: 96. In response to this call and following the already established tradition of use of meta-ethnography in health studies this volume explores the potentials of this method Noblit & Hare 1988 to unpick the interconnectedness of different educational sites which have been and are being studied ethnographically. Besides metaethnographic analyses may also offer a credible response to the lessening of opportunities for original educational ethnographic research at times of limited resources. The volume examines the forms of translocal and transtemporal ethnographic synthesis currently in use by educational ethnographers as well as the challenges and the possibilities that the method offers. It also addresses and attempts to respond to the question if meta-ethnography might be a means to sharpen ethnographers sensitivity for each other s work and achievements in the past. This book was originally published as a special issue of Ethnography and Education.". First Edition Thus. Hardcover. Fine condition/No dust jacket as issued.

201875546Washington DC: National Nuclear Security Administration Office of Safety Infrastructure and Operations 2018. Presumed First Edition First printing. Spiral bound. Very good. 58 pages. Illustrations color. Map. Acronyms. Clear plastic sheets at front and back covers. This 2018 Master Asset Plan MAP lays out the National Nuclear Security Administration's NNSA infrastructure vision and highlights strategic investments being made to achieve it. It is an update to the first-ever 2017 MAP which described how NNSA's infrastructure supports it's unique mission requirements and the gaps and mission risks inherent in that infrastructure. Safe reliable and modern infrastructure at NNSA's national laboratories and production plants is absolutely essential to accomplish our vital national security mission and ensure the well-being of our workforce. As the 2018 Nuclear Posture Review states there is no margin for further delay in improving the state of NNSA's infrastructure. Significant and sustained investments will be required during the next quarter century to recapitalize and revitalize the nuclear security enterprise. The Master Asset Plan assembles data into a single report that presents an integrated view of NNSA's infrastructure strategy.

Very good. 63 1 pages. Illustrations. Mars Science Laboratory MSL is a robotic space probe mission to Mars launched by NASA on November 26 2011 which successfully landed Curiosity a Mars rover in Gale Crater on August 6 2012. The overall objectives include investigating Mars' habitability studying its climate and geology and collecting data for a human mission to Mars. The rover carries a variety of scientific instruments designed by an international team. Contents include Media Services Information; Quick Facts; Mars at a Glance: Mars Science Laboratory Investigations; Mission Overview; Comparing Two Mars Rover Projects; Spacecraft; Mars Science Laboratory Landing Site; Recent Current and Upcoming Missions; Mars Science: A Story of Changes; Historical Mars Missions; and Program/Project Management. For several reasons a different landing system was chosen for MSL compared to previous Mars landers and rovers. Curiosity was considered too heavy to use the airbag landing system as used on the Mars Pathfinder and Mars Exploration Rovers. The MSL engineers came up with a novel alternative solution: the sky crane. The sky crane system lowered the rover with a 25 ft tether to a soft landing—wheels down—on the surface of Mars. This system consists of a bridle lowering the rover on three nylon tethers and an electrical cable carrying information and power between the descent stage and rover. As the support and data cables unreeled the rover's six motorized wheels snapped into position. At roughly 25 ft below the descent stage the sky crane system slowed to a halt and the rover touched down. After the rover touched down it waited two seconds to confirm that it was on solid ground by detecting the weight on the wheels and fired several pyros small explosive devices activating cable cutters on the bridle and umbilical cords to free itself from the descent stage. The descent stage then flew away to a crash landing 2100 ft away. The sky crane concept had never been used in missions before. National Aeronautics and Space Administration unknown
