It consists of a 36 page rulebook with a map and counters. Prepublication play testing was done by members of the Midwest Military Simulation Association MMSA . Artwork is by Paul Snider. The object of the game is to discover new worlds with potential for colonization. Each player has a ship which he or she must equip with personnel, weapons, fuel, and rations. These are lost or consumed during the course of play. The star systems on the map have numbers indicating how far above or below the plane of the map they are hence the ships are free to move in three dimensions. It is telling that later and more popular space games such as Imperium board game Imperium used a two dimensional representation of space. The generic type amoeboid, insect, feline, avian, and so on of inhabitants on a planet can be determined by a roll of percentile dice a similar system appears in Traveller role playing game Traveller . The rules can handle battles with hostile inhabitants, as well as spaceship battles between the players.

Gravity Probe A GP A was a space based experiment to test the theory of general relativity , performed jointly by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration . It sent a hydrogen maser , a highly accurate frequency standard, into space to measure the rate change of a clock in lower gravity with high precision. The probe was launched on June 18, 1976 on top of a Scout rocket Scout rocket and remained in space for 1 hour and 55 minutes, as intended. It then crashed into the Atlantic Ocean. Experimental setup The 100 kg Gravity Probe A spacecraft housed the hydrogen maser system that ran throughout the mission, and a microwave repeater to measure the Doppler shift of the maser signal. The satellite was launched nearly vertically upward to cause a large change in the local gravity seen by the maser, reaching a height of convert 10,000 km mi abbr on . At this height, general relativity predicted a clock should run 4.5 parts in 10 sup 10 sup faster than one on the Earth. Results Expand section date January 2007 The clock rate was measured from the ground by comparing the microwave signal from the clock to a maser on the ground and subtracting a signal from the spacecraft that measured the Doppler shift. The clock rate was measured for most of the duration of the flight and compared to theoretical predictions. The stability of the maser permitted measurement of changes in the rate of the maser of 1 part in 10 sup 14 sup for a 100 sec measurement. The experiment was thus able to test the equivalence principle . Gravity Probe A confirmed the prediction that gravity slows the flow of time, and the observed effects matched the predicted effects to an accuracy of about 70 parts per million.

Unreferenced date December 2007 File Probe card.JPG thumb A probe card is an interface between an electronic test system and a semiconductor Wafer electronics wafer . Its purpose is to provide an electrical path between the test system and the circuits on the wafer, thereby permitting the testing and validation of the circuits at the wafer level, usually before they are diced and packaged. It consists, normally, of a printed circuit board PCB and some form of contact elements, usually metallic, but possibly of other materials as well. Probe cards are broadly classified into needle type, vertical type, and Microelectromechanical systems MEMS Micro Electro Mechanical System type depending on shape and forms of contact elements. MEMS type is the most advanced technology currently available. The most advanced type of probe card currently can test an entire 12 wafer with one touchdown. Normally a probe card is inserted into an equipment called a wafer prober , inside which position of the wafer to be tested will be manipulated so that there should be a precise contact between the probe card and wafer. Probe card efficiency is affected by debris that accumulates on the tips of the probe needles. Normally these are made of tungsten or a tungsten rhenium alloy although modern probe cards often have contact tips manufactured by MEMS technologies. Irrespective of the probe tip material, contamination builds up on the tips as a result of successive touch down events where the probe tips make physical contact with the bond pads of the die . Accumulation of debris has an adverse effect on the critical measurement of contact resistance. To return a used probe card to a contact resistance that is acceptable the probe tips need to be thoroughly cleaned. Cleaning can be done offline using an NWR style laser to reclaim the tips by selectively removing the contamination. Online cleaning can be used during testing to optimize the testing results within the wafer or within wafer lots. Category ... more details

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 In molecular biology , a hybridization probe is a fragment of DNA or RNA of variable length usually 100 1000 bases long , which is used in DNA or RNA samples to detect the presence of nucleotide sequences the DNA target that are Complementarity molecular biology complementary to the sequence in the probe. The probe thereby hybridizes to single stranded nucleic acid DNA or RNA whose base sequence allows probe target base pair ing due to complementarity between the probe and target. The labeled probe is first denaturation biochemistry denatured by heating or under alkaline conditions such as exposure to sodium hydroxide into single stranded DNA ssDNA and then hybridized to the target ssDNA Southern blot ting or RNA northern blot ting immobilized on a membrane or fluorescent in situ hybridization in situ . To detect Nucleic acid hybridization hybridization of the probe to its target sequence, the probe is tagged or labelled with a molecular marker of either radioactive or more recently fluorescent molecules commonly used markers are Isotopes of phosphorus sup 32 sup P a radioactive isotope of phosphorus incorporated into the phosphodiester bond in the probe DNA or Digoxigenin , which is non radioactive antibody based marker. DNA sequences or RNA transcripts that have moderate to high sequence similarity to the probe are then detected by visualizing the hybridized probe via autoradiography or other imaging techniques. Normally, either ... on the nucleic acid methods method the probe may be oligonucleotide synthesis synthesized using ... cloning cloning older methods .

A logic probe is a hand held pen like test probe used for analyzing and troubleshooting the logical states Boolean logic Boolean 0 or 1 of a digital circuit. While most are powered by the circuit under test, some devices use batteries. They can be used on either Transistor transistor logic TTL transistor transistor logic or CMOS complementary metallic oxide semiconductor integrated circuit devices. There are usually three differently colored LED s on the probe s body Red and green LEDs indicate high and low states respectively An amber LED indicates a pulse as used in a NOID Light to test for pulses to fuel injectors on a electronically controlled fuel injection vehicle The pulse detecting electronics usually has a pulse stretcher circuit so that even very short pulses become visible on the amber LED. A control on the logic probe allows either the capture and storage of a single event or continuous running. Image Logic probe new.jpg right 100px thumb A low cost logic probe When the logic probe is either connected to an invalid logic level a fault condition or a tri state logic tri stated output or not connected at all, none of the LEDs lights up. Another control on the logic probe allow selection of either TTL or CMOS family logic. This is required as these families have different thresholds for V sub IH sub and V sub IL sub . Some logic probes have a separate audible tone for each of the logical states. An oscillating signal causes the probe to alternate between high state and low state tones. A logic probe is a cheap, versatile and convenient digital test instrument, but can test only a single signal at a time. When many logic levels need to be observed or recorded simultaneously, a logic analyzer is used.
