And yet weeding by hand, typically carried out by women and children, accounts for 50% of the total labour inputs needed to produce a crop, deprives millions of children the joys of playtime – and often schooling – and adds to the ...

Galileo Mission Planning for Low Gain Antenna Based Operations

The Galileo mission operations concept is undergoing substantial redesign, necessitated by the deployment failure of the High Gain Antenna, while the spacecraft is on its way to Jupiter. The new design applies state-of-the-art technology and processes to increase the telemetry rate available through the Low Gain Antenna and to increase the information density of the telemetry. This paper descri...

Issues in Pain Prediction - More Gain than Pain.
