ULA Delta II launches with the SAC-D spacecraft

Launched aboard a Pegasus-XL rocket along with NASA’s HETE-1 satellite, both spacecraft were lost after the rocket failed to deploy them upon reaching orbit. Despite operating for ten hours before running out of power, SAC-B was unable to conduct any scientific research, and reentered the atmosphere still attached to HETE-1 and the Pegasus upper stage on 7 April 2002.

The next satellite, SAC-A, was deployed from Space Shuttle Endeavour on 14 December 1998 during the STS-88 mission; the first Space Shuttle mission to the International Space Station. It carried five experiments, primarily intended to demonstrate technology for future missions.

The primary experiment was to demonstrate the use of GPS satellites to track it in orbit. It also carried a CCD camera for Earth imaging, a magnetometer to study the magnetic field of the Earth, some experimental solar cells, and an instrument designed to track whales. The satellite remained in orbit until 25 October 1999.

The third satellite, SAC-C, was launched on 21 November 2000, atop a Delta II flying from the same launch pad and in the same configuration as will be used for the launch of SAC-D. It was a secondary payload on the rocket which launched NASA’s Earth Observing 1 (EO-1) spacecraft.

SAC-C’s primary mission was to conduct multispectral imaging over Argentina, augmented by medium and high-resolution cameras. It also carried experiments to study the effects of the Sun upon the Earth’s magnetic field, a helium magnetometer, another payload to track whales, as well as several technology demonstration payloads. The satellite is currently still in orbit.

SAC-D carries nine instruments. Its primary experiment is Aquarius, which will be operated by NASA. Aquarius is designed to study the salinity of the Earth’s oceans by means of three radiometers and a radar scatterometer. It has a mass of 320 kilograms, and is designed to operate for three years.

Five CONAE experiments are aboard the spacecraft. The Microwave Radiometer, MWR, will provide measurements of the wind, precipitation and sea ice conditions, and the amount of water vapour in the air; data which will be used to supplement that collected by Aquarius.

NEW Far Infrared Heating Pad | The Relief Shop Blog

The Relief Shop Medical Supplies has added a NEW product, the Far Infrared Healing Pad by Therasage. This specific heating pad is the medium size, which is 21″x30″. It has 126 jade stones that absorb the far infrared heat. The combination of heated jade and far infrared heat then penetrates 200-300 times deeper into the body than regular heating pads.

Besides the jade stones and the infrared heat, this pad also has an antibacterial material that helps produce negative ions . Positively charged ions are free radicals that weaken your cells. Negatively charged ions have been shown to relieve stress , strengthen the function of autonomic nerves, reinforce collagen, improve metabolism, and strengthen the body’s immune system .

So, now we have a heating pad that offers infrared heat, a way to transfer that heat deeper into the body, AND a way to generate beneficial negative ions.  I want one of these!

The link for this pad is Far Infrared Healing Pad – Medium .  The smaller sized pad (14″x20″ ) can be found at Far Infrared Healing Pad – Small .
