Web Between the Worlds
The climateprediction.net experiment has been developed to allow a state-of-the-art climate prediction model to be run on home/ school/ work computers. By getting data from thousands of climate models, we will generate the world's largest climate prediction experiment. Climate change, and our response to it, are issues of global importance, affecting food production, water resources, ecosystems, energy demand, insurance costs and much else. There is a broad scientific consensus that the Earth is likely to warm over the coming century, but estimates of how much vary hugely. By taking part in the climateprediction.net experiment you can help to improve scientific forecasts of 21st century climate. http://www.climateprediction.net/index.php To make a Deep Impact on Comet Tempel 1, enter your name in the web site below. It will be included with other names on a disc attached to the impactor spacecraft, which will collide with Tempel 1. You can make your own personalized certificate after you click the "Send My Name" button with your name entry. Once you're entered in the campaign, you can sign up for future newsletters. http://deepimpact.jpl.nasa.gov/sendyourname/index.html Clear skies! Evan Dembskey |
