From: Will Martin <wmartin@BRL-TGR.ARPA> For those interested in the satellite-retrieval process, I recommend you see if your local PBS station will broadcast the latest "Enterprise" program (this is a series of half-hour shows on various businesses). This last one was on the insurors' and underwriters' efforts to recover the two satellites lost from the shuttle flight a while back. An excellent discussion, including more technical info on the causes of the failures than I have seen anywhere else. Since many PBS stations repeat programs or tape-delay them, I thought it was worthwhile to mention this on the net. The program aired in St. Louis on Wednesday, 24 Oct. Other topics -- it appears that the same gateway breakage that has isolated the ARPA and USENET portions of many other lists has also affected SPACE. Hopefully this can be soon remedied. Until then, submitters who have both ARPA and USENET access should send postings to SPACE@MIT-MC AND post them to net.space.
