Berkeley scientists report detection of ammonia gas in several vast space clouds near the galaxy center. The finding marks the first definite identification of a relatively complex molecule in interstellar space, suggesting seeds for organic compounds and potentially life elsewhere.
The Essa 8 weather satellite was launched Sunday from Vandenberg Air Force Base. It weighs 290 pounds and carries two cameras to photograph cloud cover every six minutes from a polar orbit. The system provides storm photographs to coastal nations and islands and aids snow and ice estimates for shipping lanes. Essa 6 aided flood control in Mexico amid hurricane Naomi, helping manage Nazas River basin water supply.
Researchers at Hat Creek California used a sensitive two foot radio telescope to analyze microwave emissions from ammonia. They propose ammonia forms on dust particle surfaces in space rather than by random gas collisions. The clouds lie between our solar system and the galactic center about 30,000 light years away.
