headline = RADIATION BELTS DISCOVERED BY SATELLITE
article = <color=#0000>(tab)</color>The first space probe to include equipment for measuring cosmic rays has revealed belts of charged particles around the Earth. Instead of circling right above us, <<2>> goes through an elaborate ballet. It shoots up to an altitude of more than a thousand kilometers before coming closer, speeding up, and then soaring back out. Due to the strange nature of orbital mechanics, this requires no energy expenditure once in motion. It slows down and speeds up purely from the laws of nature that Newton discovered almost 300 years ago.\n<color=#0000>(tab)</color>Historical Information: Explorer 1, launched by the USAF on 31 February, 1958, was the first scientific satellite. Dr. James Van Allen was in charge of the scientific instrumentation for the satellite, and so the radiation belts were named after him. Your rocket may not actually be following Newton's laws, as you need the mod "Principia" to simulate N-body gravitational interactions. For new players, the stock two-body approximation is easier to understand.
