Magellan contact lapses blamed on braking rocket separation
NASA officials said a braking rocket may not have fully separated from Magellan after Venus orbit insertion on Aug. 10 causing intermittent Earth contact. New NASA photos show a lava filled 20 mile crater on Venus. Magellan manager Tony Spear outlined a second possibility that jettisoned cables were burned or snagged during separation. Sullivan lays out hiring freeze and possible furloughs if no budget deal by Oct. 1. Gramm Rudman Hollings cuts threaten 31.9 percent across many agencies.

The National Taxpayers Union says President Bush's switch on taxes sparks the largest tax revolt in a decade. Keating links Bush's anti tax pledge to Dukakis defeat and notes eight states have ballot fights on taxes through November.
