Basic Space Science; United Nations/European Space Agency Workshop for Developing Countries, 2nd, San Jose, Costa Rica, November 2-7, 1992
Abstract
The study of the world beyond the sky and how it interacts with the Earth is not only of interest to nations like the United States, but also to developing countries around the world. One aspect of this broad field, Planetary Science, was covered by a United Nations/European Space Agency (UN/ESA) workshop. Topics discussed included: the Chicxulub Impact Crater in Yucatan, Mexico; the solar eclipse of July 11, 1991 and its affect on Costa Rica, and modeling the primeval atmospheres of the gas giants. For individual titles, see A95-79917 through A95-79921.
