<title>Physics in the news, Jupiter in the sky</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/18525/20111004/physics-in-the-news-jupiter-in-the-sky</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Oct 4, 2011) St. Lawrence University physics professor Aileen O&apos;Donoghue was in the NCPR studio this morning, just after two Americans and one Australian-American, Saul Perlmutter, Adam Riess and Brian Schmidt, were announced as this year&apos;s Nobel Prize winners in physics. Their analysis of exploding stars showed that the universe is expanding at an accelerated rate. She and Martha Foley talked about their work and its implications, and about other recent news that neutrinos have been measured at speeds faster than the speed of light. O&apos;Donoghue also gave tips on what to see in the night sky, and how: Jupiter and its moons, with good binoculars.

<description><![CDATA[ (Jan 23, 2004) NASA scientists are planning some serious trouble-shooting today, hoping to regain contact with the Mars rover &quot;Spirit&quot;.  It&apos;s been two days since we&apos;ve heard from &quot;Spirit&quot;, other than a quick &quot;hello&quot; yesterday.  But when we last had significant news from Mars, the rover was contemplating a rock named &quot;Adirondack&quot; by NASA.  The name has this region&apos;s tourism officials pumped up.  But why the name &quot;Adirondack&quot;?   Martha Foley talks with Orlando newsman Pat Duggins, who reports on NASA news regularly for NPR.
