NASA has delayed its first space shuttle launch of the year for a fourth time after failing to resolve concerns about a potential problem with fuel pressurization valves. Shuttle Discovery had been scheduled to lift off on Feb. 27 for a 14-day flight to outfit the International Space Station with a final set of solar wing panels. The flight, already delayed three times for safety reviews, was not immediately rescheduled. The issue that has delayed the mission involves three small valves in the shuttle's rear engine compartment that are needed to keep the external fuel tank properly pressurized during the 8-1/2-minute climb into orbit. During the last shuttle mission in November a tiny piece...

When space shuttle Discovery blasts into space next week, there will be an unusual passenger onboard. A 300-pound humanoid robot named Robonaut 2, or R2, will hitch a ride along with the six astronauts who are making their way to the International Space Station. With its gold helmet and shiny metallic visor, R2 looks a little like a toned-down Metroid from the popular Nintendo video game, but it’s solely made up of a torso, two arms and two five-fingered hands. The idea is that R2 will be an astronaut’s assistant, helping out with routine tasks such as holding tools and vacuuming air filters. Initially, R2 will be deployed on a fixed pedestal inside the space station, NASA said. Next steps ...

Nice that a Robot is accommodated in the shuttle. It is always that of a Robot for routine works that avoids many an ergonomics problem when traveling in the shuttle. Astronauts will feel a bit at ease.

Geopark is a place where rare geological landforms are preserved in an undisturbed state and where low impact recreation, scientific research, and educational activities can be pursued. The total planned area for this geopark is said to be 630.37 square km. It will be functioning as a museum as well as as scientific research center. 2. World Car free day : On September 22nd 200 cyclists celebrated World Car Free day by using cycles. This was an attempt to keep traffic jam and pollution at bay. Though the event went almost unnoticed and no similar effort was seen anywhere else. I wonder why do such news go unnoticed when certain channels are busy showing what do star eat and how thye go to the gym and what do they wear. I was surprised to see zero comments in the article where I read this news. I wonder what kind of news do people normally look for? 3. Britan will...
