I must apologize for not spelling out what GRO was. I forget that there are people out in net-land that haven't been living with it like I have. This is the first gamma ray astronomical observatory to be launched in a decade. You may remember Solar Maximum Mission (or SMM or SolarMax). It did a nose dive into the drink last year! For launch information try telneting into "grossc.gsfc.nasa.gov" use the username GRONEWS (no password). (P.S. GROSSC is Gamma Ray Observatory Science Support Center)
