So in space, the Earth is very small.

The space age began with the launching of small scientific satellites in 1958, the International Geophysical Year. Those satellites were small because of the limited capacity of the first space launchers.

When Ford was about three years old, we shared a very small room together, in a very small space.

Space science activities are obviously valuable, and most space faring nations have begun their involvement in this field with small scientific satellites.

Airbag designers also have the problem of getting flat sheets into a small space.

The French National Centre for Space Studies (CNES) is currently considering the following small scientific satellites

So you can have and you can do it in a very small space in fact.

It's a way of squeezing an enormous amount of information and understanding into a small space.

This powerful radar can detect debris as small as a pea orbiting 600 kilometers out in space.

The increasing volume of objects launched for military purposes such as small satellites and new super small assets are threatening to over populate near space orbits and lead to reduced visibility.

(c) Space science (activities in solar terrestrial physics, atmospheric sciences, astronomy and microgravity life and materials sciences, a space science enhancement programme and the possibility of two small satellites for science missions)

The development and dissemination of small size and cheap strike systems, capable of creating small pockets of orbital debris that would deny other parties access to space, if unmonitored, could lead to a new arms race. It could also make space activities more costly by requiring the enhanced protection of satellites.

So, it's already sticking out into space enough, and then from that is this, is this small area called the Mediatheque.

The first small scientific satellite of Argentina will be the Scientific Applications Satellite (SAC B), which is being developed jointly by its national space agency, the National Commission for Space Activities (CONAE), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) of the United States.

One small part of this E8 shape can be used to describe the curved space time of Einstein's general relativity, explaining gravity.

After a modest beginning with small, simple and lightweight satellites, space systems evolved into large, complex and expensive space platforms for scientific research and other applications that often require many years of development prior to launch.

The opportunities for small and medium sized countries to enter into space activities at a relevant level have, in the past, been limited.

On 3 February 1994, the small satellite of the University of Bremen, BREMSAT, was carried into orbit by the United States Space Shuttle Discovery.

The current and future development of small satellites is closely linked to the appearance of new, low cost launchers (Pegasus, Taurus etc.) and lower cost launch opportunities on existing vehicles (for example, Ariane 4 or small canisters on the Space Shuttle).

Moreover, even a country with a modest research budget and little or no experience with space technology can afford to participate in missions involving small satellites.

Overall, the main preserve building at each site should be limited to the size needed for modest offices, working space and a small public visitor's center.

A January 15 report on US Newsweek website stated that researchers at the Air Force Engineering University of China have written a thesis on Research on de orbiting model of small scale space debris removal using space based laser . This thesis described how by using space based platform lasers, space debris would be rendered smaller and less dangerous as a result of laser radiation.

(b) Multiple launch of several small satellites, nominally on Ariane 4 or Ariane 5 for European missions (e.g. Cluster scientific satellites of the European Space Agency (ESA))

That's a term that I coined a few years ago while I was thinking of how pressed we are together, and at the same time how these small objects, like the Walkman first and then the iPod, create bubbles of space around us that enable us to have a metaphysical space that is much bigger than our physical space.

In the past decade, however, technological advances in materials and microelectronics, together with the experience gained, have allowed many significant space missions to be performed with small satellites.

Most of us, maybe all of us, are here pretty happily for a bunch of days with a couple of bags, maybe a small space, a hotel room.

Because of the large space to ground distance involved, however, the data rates are small, or larger ground antennas and higher electrical power on board the spacecraft are required.

The preponderance of small sized economies and the creation of economic space for investors and entrepreneurs remain an important challenge in attracting large flows of foreign direct investment (FDI).

But then, decades later, I woke up and discovered that space travel was still reserved for a small corps of astronauts and cosmonauts, and a tiny group of wealthy space tourists six so far. The space business was the preserve of a few governments, plus a number of large cost plus contractors who lived in symbiosis with their government customers.

A small State elected once in 40 years is represented, but a small State that benefits from increased policy and political space and that participates every day in the subsidiary bodies of the Security Council does not get any representation or benefit at all, according to their logic.

The Republic of Korea subsequently joined the arrangement and the four countries agreed on the following two space projects the Small Multi Mission Satellite (SMMS) and the Satellite Disaster Mitigation System (SDMS).

For example, it might recommend that one or more of the educational activities of the United Nations Programme on Space Applications should be devoted to the theme of microsatellites and small satellites.

And so I do like something which is pointed, not blunt, something which is focused on reality, something that has the power, through its leverage, to transform even a very small space.

The strengthening of international and regional cooperation in the area of space research was of vital importance such cooperation could be neither privatized nor restricted to a small group of developed States.

They're flying through their space, ocean space.

Before hyperbolic geometry, mathematicians knew about two kinds of space Euclidean space, and spherical space.

The purpose of the study was to give an overview of the rapidly evolving field of small satellites, which should be easily accessible even to countries with limited or newly conceived space programmes.

Because, for the first time, we saw our world, not as a solid, immovable, kind of indestructible place, but as a very small, fragile looking world just hanging against the blackness of space.

Redwoods grow back into themselves as they expand into space, and this flying buttress is a limb shot out of that small trunk, going back into the main trunk and fusing with it.

So if you cross the border just across the border a small factory in Germany, and here you can see the guy with his computer screen, and those points in space are communicated.

Public space. This is a good public space.

And it takes all the infrared available at night, converts it into an electron in the space of two small films, and is enabling you to play an image which you can see through.

In 2002, the Inter Agency Space Debris Coordination Committee (IADC), a small group of entities capable of launching satellites, had been invited to present proposals to the Subcommittee on the mitigation of debris production.

NASA also developed a portable telescope that is capable of detecting objects as small as one half inch in diameter at altitudes ranging from that of the Space Station (400 650 kilometers) through Sun synchronous altitudes (800 1000 kilometers) and objects as small as 5 to 10 centimeters at geosynchronous altitude (36,000 kilometers).
