A Japanese rocket carrying a satellite into orbit has launched successfully, the second Japanese launch in a month.
The H-2A rocket lifted off in southern Japan carrying a 4.6-ton satellite designed to control air traffic and track
weather patterns.
Mission control at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (Jaxa) confirmed the satellite separated from the rocket.
Japan's space programme has revived after a series of failures and a series of successes by regional rival China.
The programme's ninth H2-A rocket, which forms the centrepiece of Japan's space programme, took off from the Tanegashima space centre in the southern region of Kagoshima at 1555 (0655 GMT).

Why is this newsworthy? Is this a breakthru for the japanese? Do we post every article of every satellite launch?
If they launched it using unstable hyrdrocarbons from recycled sushi flatulation, I might be inclined to read, but otherwise, this isnt S&T material.
The point is, youre flooding the S&T forum with every little bit of technical banter you see on usemycomputer etc
Finding a dinosour, not worthy
Cloning a LIVING dinosour = INTERESTING
making a frog leap, not worthy
Using the power of your own thoughts to make a frog leap - INTERESTING

Ahhh, I can clearly see the nanobots now . . . thank you

Couldnt they just turn on CNN for weather, and air traffic control is done by the ground and radar. As well as beacons on the planes that transmits signals back.
I was kinda wondering myself.Originally Posted by Krell

It's newsworthy. Its not everyday a satelite goes into orbit.
That's what they want you to believe...

TOKYO - A Japanese H-2A rocket successfully lifted off from its launch pad Saturday carrying a 4.6-ton weather and navigation satellite, officials said.
The launch of the Japanese-developed rocket from the remote southern island of Tanegashima was the ninth of an H-2A, a two-stage launch vehicle.
The liftoff was successful and no problems were immediately reported, said Toshihisa Horiguchi, a spokesman for Japan's space agency, JAXA.

Actually it is your job to post news in the news sections not flood the forums with non news items.
That maybe one of the reasons that this site loads so slow is because it is flooded with crap.
I have nothing against you personally but you do spam the boards with continuous useless new and questions that have been answered several times in the past do searches before asking.

Ah, where to begin. Firstly, do me a favor, dont click on any of my threads. Thx. Secondly, the polls I post necesitate a TIMELY regard. Who cares if people were using a Linksys router 12 months ago, I need to know what the status is currently so as to use the datum to create a port forwarding tutorial.Originally Posted by Feather
I fear I tread on being overly defensive, but to retire the matter keep in mind your USELESS NEWS and CRAP as you put it, are USEFUL to others. Plus whats news really? Is a guy having a pencil stuck in his penis really news? Disgusting, distressing, dizzying in fact, but news? Who's to say.
If you'd like to see other types of news then by all means dig them up and post them, that is allowed you know?
Unless I missed the memo at the last USEFUL NEWS convention, your opinion has yet to be the divine source of wisdom and inspiration in finding it.
Anyways, being that as you recognize that that IS my role, try to understand that in that capacity it is incumbent upon me to post material that appeals to ALL, not just a single or small group of individuals. If just one person enjoyed it then its goal has been successful.
To close, my only suggestion is that when you see a SOULXTC thread, please dont click the link. PLEASE.. Problem solved and I dont have to listen to the whining.
PS: It loads slow, if you'll notice, because of all those dam ads swirling around each page. A forum displays a finite amount of threads, it simply pushes the older ones onto the next page as newer ones get submitted........................THX:icon_salu
