This longer wavelength afterglow can last days and Swift alerts ground-based observatories to join the spectacle.
Airlines have been split on whether to go with a ground-based system or with satellite-based systems.
Existing data from ground-based and space telescopes put w at between -1.1 and -0.9.
Unfortunately, ground-based systems alone simply cannot achieve the leverage needed to provide an effective strategic defense.
Ideally, an underlay of ground-based interceptors would also be deployed in a layered SDI system.
In contrast, ground-based defenses have limited intercept ranges and take longer to bring to bear.
Both also had ground-based lasers that could temporarily dazzle or permanently blind the optics of satellites.
CENTERFORSECURITYPOLICY: Grasping the Importance of Space Power
In landing systems, Honeywell makes ground-based parts, whereas Allied's strength is in the cockpit.
In particular, their assessments have depended heavily on measurements of temperature from ground-based instruments.
To test the idea, he and an international consortium of his colleagues have built a ground-based prototype.
We already have ground-based interceptors at Fort Greeley, Alaska and at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.
Uletschi founded FlightSafety International and introduced advanced-technology ground-based simulator training and comprehensive classroom instruction to business aviation.
Ground-based missile defense is especially costly and not nearly as effective as sea- and space-based systems would be.
Their antenna system is also closely related to a ground-based wireless technology called local multipoint distribution service (LMDS).
Whether the U.S. system of ground-based interceptors are the right response quickly became a matter of debate Friday.
WSJ: U.S. to Boost Missile Defenses in Response to North Korea
In ground-based images, the patch of sky (just one-tenth the diameter of the full Moon) is largely empty.
BBC: NEWS | Science/Nature | Hubble sees the faintest galaxies
Virginia Burkett is the scientist at the U.S. Geological Survey who has analyzed the ground-based measurement of subsidence.
The Aspin reprogramming would also disrupt the alternative for defending the continental United States: the Ground-Based Interceptor (GBI) program.
W. Bush administration plans to deploy 14 more ground-based interceptors (GBIs) in Alaska, bringing the 2009 total to 54.
FORBES: National Insecurity: Obama/Kerry Gun And Missile Policies To Disarm America Are Indefensible
Towards the end of 2012, Dish Network won FCC approval to use its spectrum for a ground-based cellular network.
Because they would be so small and light, it would even be possible to launch them from ground-based guns.
These could involve ground-based anti-missile systems, airborne lasers and space-based sensors and, in due course, weapons (interceptors and directed energy).
The Bush administration deployed the first ground-based interceptor (GBI) in 2004, and had planned to deploy a total of 54.
Building a more accurate ground-based interferometer is impossible because of atmospheric turbulence, which makes the stars seem to dance around.
Now only visible with the largest ground-based telescopes or from space, 1999 RQ36 currently lies about one earth-sun distance away.
FORBES: New Observations Signal NASA Mission's Target Asteroid Is Sample-Friendly Rubble Pile
As a result, the project focuses on atmospheric measurements that support advanced optics testing on planned conventional world-class, ground-based telescopes.
FORBES: Liquid Mirror Telescope Technology Finally Going Mainstream
Given our dependence on the communication systems of our planet, both satellite- and ground-based, this is not simply a theoretical worry.
By cross-referencing the satellite data with a ground-based transmitter of precisely known location, the accuracy can be boosted tenfold or more.
The Ministry of Defence has stressed that the government has not yet decided to deploy ground-based air defence systems during the Games.
