Two twelve year old boys accidentally find themselves on a moon base in the twenty third century working with an emergency team facing the problems of life in space. They discover that not all their twenty first century skills are useless in the technically advanced society of the moon in the year 2287. As they learn the ways of lunar inhabitants they become increasingly concerned about their trip home.

This Is Your Captain puts you inside the cockpit of a modern-day airliner for an insider's look at one of the most glamorized, yet deadly professions in the world. What makes an airline captain, and how did they end up flying your plane? What makes air travel dangerous, and what makes it safe? Do you have what it takes to command a jet costing over a hundred million dollars and, more importantly, can you accept the life-long challenge of keeping the flying public safe? Read the naked truth about an airline captain's life as never told before. Try to fathom the last words of an aircrew on the brink of death. Match wits with a captain's knowledge. Get answers to the most common questions asked about the airline captain's profession. Finally, join author Captain Jack Watson on his own secret retirement flight as he says goodbye to 34 years in this unique high-flying way of life. This is your jump seat pass to access a mysterious and futuristic existence hiding behind the cockpit door. Enter at your own risk to watch and learn. Lock the door behind you, sit down, strap in, and hang on. You're in for a hell of a ride.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

The corresponding heliocentric places may then be found, and hence the position of the plane of the orbit as determined by the first and fourth observations. Thus, by means of the equations (37) and (38), we obtain log P = 0.0256953, log p'" = 0.4492542. With these values of p and p'", the following heliocentric places are obtained: I = 716'51".54, log tan b =8.4289064, logr =0.3083732, f" = 91 37 40.96, logtan6"' = 8.8638549„, logr"'= 0.3172678. Then from tan t sin (i. (?" + I)--SI) = £ (tan V" + tan b) sec (f--1), tan i cos (i (1" + 1)--Si) = £ (tan b'"--tan 6) cosec--I), we get SI = 206 42' 45".23, i = 4 36' 49".76. For the arguments of the latitude the results are u = 16030' 35".99, u" = 244 59' 12".53.;Ecliptic and Mean Equinox 1864.0. The equations tan b'--tan isin (J--& ), tan b" = tan i sin (i"--Q ), give log tan 6' = 8.1827129., log tan b" = 8.6342104., and the comparison of these results with those derived directly from p' and p" exhibits a difference of + 1".04 in b', and of--0".06 in h". Hence, the position of the plane of the orbit as determined from the extreme places very nearly satisfies the intermediate latitudes. If we compute the remaining elements by means of these values of r, r'", and «, u'", the separate results are: It appears, therefore, that the principal effect of neglecting tne extreme latitudes in the determination of an orbit from four observations is on the inclination of the orbit and on the longitude of the ascending node, the ...
