File Description [top]

As well as the daily paper, File 644 includes "Business Plus," with weekly business news. One of the focuses of the "Daily Camera"; is the increasing number of technology companies that Boulder attracts. These include the current top five employers in the area (Storage Technology Corp.; IBM; Neodata Services, Inc.; Ball Aerospace Systems Group; and Exabyte Corp.), as well as other key local technology companies, such as Micro Motion, Inc.; Quantum Peripherals; Amgen; Ohmeda; Conner Peripherals (Seagate); HiTech Manufacturing, Inc.; and Electronic Manufacturing Systems. The strong local food and pharmaceutical industry presence is also recorded in the "Daily Camera," including news of Valleylab, which produces pharmaceutical equipment, and the local operations of Geneva Pharmaceuticals. In addition to local industry and business news, the paper offers coverage of national and international news. Community and lifestyle coverage includes "FIT," a weekly healthy lifestyle section, and local recreational sports activities, such as bicycling and rock climbing. Also covered is news of a number of local federal laboratories, including the National Center for Atmospheric Research and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Key columnists include Juliette Whittman, who writes a Sunday political column; Clay Evans, who covers issues of interest to young people; and Karen Mitchell, who presents a humorous view of life at home.

    TEXT: 
  /LP, /TX  A new round in humanity's effort to understand Mars begins Wednesday as a 
    big Delta 2 rocket boosts the United States' Mars Global Surveyor 
    spacecraft toward the distant red planet. 
     
       Blast-off is scheduled for 10:11 p.m. MST, according to the National 
    Aeronautics and Space Adminstration. 
     
  /TX     It is the first of three large, complex satellites planned for launch 
    toward Mars this month and next. On Nov. 16, Russians expect to blast their 
    Mars '96 mission into space, followed Dec. 5 by the United States' Mars 
    Pathfinder mission. 
       All three are taking advantage of the best "launch window," an optimum 
    time when Earth and Mars move into favorable positions in their orbits 
    around the sun. If the launch window is missed, another 25 months must pass 
    before the opportunity arises again. 
     
       None of the missions will be able to say much, if anything, about the 
    possibility of life on Mars. There are no instruments that can seek out and 
    analyze microbes, and there is no provision for sending rock samples back 
    to Earth. Sample return missions are being planned for the future, however, 
    perhaps as early as 2005. 
     
       Although Mars Global Surveyor will be the first of the three lofted into 
    space, because their flight paths differ, Mars Pathfinder will get there 
    first, settling onto Mars' surface on July 4. The Mars Global Surveyor is 
    scheduled to go into orbit around the red planet in midsummer. And the 
    Russian mission - designed to drop four landing capsules - arrives in 
    September. 
     
       The goal of the Surveyor mission is to provide the best maps ever of the 
    whole martian surface, imaging objects as small as 10 yards across. It is 
    also partly a replacement for the nearly $1 billion Mars Observer mission 
    which failed and fell silent just as the unrecovered spacecraft was about 
    to enter orbit around Mars in August 1993.
