Lockheed Chief Plans to Save Rolls Jet Engine
Lockheed Aircraft chairman Daniel Haughton returned to the United States with proposals to save the Rolls Royce RB211 engine, a move tied to the Tristar airliner. He met with British officials and said a decision would depend on costs versus replacing the engine with General Electric or Pratt and Whitney units. He plans to discuss options with customers in New York and continues talks with Heath and defense ministry officials.

Great Red Spot May Yield 300-Year Jupiter Clues
Astronomers, aided by Pioneer probes planned for 1972 and 1973 launches, seek answers about Jupiter's Great Red Spot. The missions cost 95 million dollars, travel to within 100,000 miles of the planet, and may send data on temperature, atmosphere, magnetic field and radiation belts.

Rare Isotope Measured During Underground Explosion
Lawrence Radiation Laboratory researchers report the first detection of fermium-258 after bombarding fermium-257 with heavy hydrogen nuclei. Isolated from rocks irradiated in a Nevada underground test, fermium-258 decays in 0.38 microseconds, challenging expectations and suggesting limits for making superheavy elements. The finding, published in Physics Review Letters, marks a five year effort and spawns theories about the future of elements with 106 to 108 protons and the broader path to discovery.
