![]() Source: space.com Chinese astronauts docked two spaceships in orbit for the first time on Monday, June 18, 2012, marking a vital milestone in the country's quest to build a manned space station in Earth orbit. The three-person crew of the Shenzhou 9 spacecraft, which includes the China's first female astronaut, arrived at the country's Tiangong 1 ("Heavenly Palace") test module in orbit and joined the two craft to complete the successful docking. The maneuver is the first manned docking for China, making it the third nation, after the United States and Russia, to achieve such a feat. "We are one step closer to our destination of constructing a future space station," an official with China's space program said during a broadcast on the state-run CNTV news network. "This is the first successful crew transportation mission for China." ![]() Source: LA Times: We're sad to note the death of one of the most beloved science writers of our time: Ray Bradbury. Bradbury’s daughter confirmed his death to the Associated Press on Wednesday morning. She said her father died Tuesday night, June 5, 2012, in Southern California. He was 91. Author of more than 27 novels and story collections — most famously “The Martian Chronicles,” “Fahrenheit 451,” “Dandelion Wine” and “Something Wicked This Way Comes” — and more than 600 short stories, Bradbury has frequently been credited with elevating the often maligned reputation of science fiction. Some say he singlehandedly helped to move the genre into the realm of literature. “The only figure comparable to mention would be [Robert A.] Heinlein and then later [Arthur C.] Clarke,” said Gregory Benford, a UC Irvine physics professor and Nebula Award-winning science fiction writer. “But Bradbury, in the ‘40s and ‘50s, became the name brand.” Much of Bradbury’s accessibility and ultimate popularity had to do with his gift as a stylist — his ability to write lyrically and evocatively of lands an imagination away, worlds he anchored in the here and now with a sense of visual clarity and small-town familiarity. Bradbury's work was a favorite of R.I. Science Fiction club members, and he will be sorely missed. |
