Meteorology Mission During the Mars meteorology mission‚ NASA computers had made a mistake. The conversion to metric units from English was never converted.

The failed meteorology mission of 1999 was caused by a machine error due to a computer not converting English units to metric units. Scientists didn’t realize the mistake until they tried to send

Our first stop on the trip was to the Apollo 11 landing site‚ as it was the place of the first lunar landing. It is also a relatively smooth

Think back to summer vacation. What did you do to fill those two months? Most kids would just sit around all day waiting for school to start.

A sound body is the most splendid treasure a man can cherish. A sound body means that you are so splendidly strong and well that you can bear the roughest experiences without becoming ill. The body is a living thing to be put out in the air and the sunshine. The more roughly you treat your body‚ the stronger will it be. Physical harmony is an index and expression of a harmonious mind. If one wants to build up one’s mind‚ one must build up first the body. Man has a body as well as a mind. So intimate
