U S flags Halley mission with cautious push in 1980s
NASA chief Beggs left a door open for an American Halley mission while warning a mere me-too effort won t cut it. JPL proposes a 1 ton camera craft to fly by Halley in 1985 86, capture gases, return samples by shuttle in 1991 at an estimated 300 million. International rivals press ahead as Halley excitement grows.

Slavery Report Intensifies Scrutiny of Mauritania
A United Nations study based on the Anti-Slavery Society of London estimates up to 100,000 enslaved people in Mauritania, mostly blacks from the southwest. It accuses Moors of harboring slaves and failing to enforce abolition decrees, despite official denials and periodic promises to end the practice.

Judge bars cameras in Williams trial case review
The Atlanta Press Club may appeal Judge Clarence Cooper’s ruling barring TV cameras from the October Wayne B. Williams trial. Cooper cited potential harm to children and Georgia rules, while noting the U.S. Supreme Court Chandler decision that does not guarantee broadcasts over defendant objections. Williams faces charges in two of 28 slayings of young black residents.

Why Voyager II signals from Saturn take so long
An article notes Voyager II’s Saturn flyby delays of about 134 hours due to light speed limits. It explains that radio signals travel at light speed, about 186,000 miles per second, with a distance of nearly 1 billion miles between Saturn and Earth, making return data take over 1 hour. The piece uses a playful limerick to illustrate relativity.
