Testing Einstein's Universe

WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS FOR WEEK ENDING 7 JANUARY 2000:

STANFORD HIGHLIGHT
Room temperature thermal measurements of Probe C at Hex 4 have been performed to determine the probe's radial thermal conduction at this location. Analysis of the test results is underway. Additional thermal tests at the probe's window locations have been started to determine the radial thermal conduction at these locations. The team members involved in this work include Jim Maddocks, Dave Murray, and Mike Taber.
