People pay attention to the news-making breakthroughs, but when the first heart transplant was performed in South Africa, it wasn't simply the achievement of one person but the culmination of a lot of shared research over many years.Mary Witzlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06458299046574564155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773951083886676220.post-83750142280729431612010-03-24T20:59:20.720-07:002010-03-24T20:59:20.720-07:00I'm sorry you didn't give information on w...I'm sorry you didn't give information on what she and her students did to determine the orbits. <br /><br />I remember as a young boy watching satellites drift across the nightsky. We often wondered if the Russian satellites were taking pictures of us as we were looking up at them.

We agreed man would walk on the moon. A mere 4 years later, that discussion became a reality.<br /><br />That's enough for today.Wyman Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14246828004909260940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773951083886676220.post-49866589074746487782010-03-24T12:10:32.042-07:002010-03-24T12:10:32.042-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773951083886676220.post-53352220505454823752010-03-24T12:10:23.515-07:002010-03-24T12:10:23.515-07:00This was such an interesting article one what one ...This was such an interesting article one what one teacher and her students did.
