Safer boosters picked by Nasa for space missions Cape canaveral Fla. Up1 with a key Racket program cancelled two and possibly three interplanetary probes will be shot into deep space from shuttle cargo Bays using less powerful but safer boosters Nasa said wednesday in another development the National aeronautics and space administration also announced the election of an Orbi Tal sciences corp rocket to Cany the Mars observer spacecraft to the red planet in the Early 1990s. The other three the Galileo Robelo Jupiter the Ulysses Sun study space Craft and the Magellan Venus radar map per originally were to have been launched from shuttle payload Bays using Hydrogen fuelled Centaur rockets built by general dynamics corp. But the is billion Centaur program was cancelled after the Jan. 2b challenger disaster primarily Tor safety reasons leaving Nasa with no Way to immediately launch the costly spacecraft. Nasa Laid wednesday at least two of he spacecraft will use less powerful Boe ing inertial upper stage ius scud fuel boosters instead. A third maybe placed atop a new Titan 4 expendable rocket when they become available after 1989. The 17-foot 1us has been used three times during shuttle flights once to launch a Nasa tracking satellite and twice faring defense department mis Sions. An ius and a second tracking satellite were aboard the challenger when it was destroyed. The Centaur cancellation was a slag Bering blow to the Galileo and Ulysses projects. Both spacecraft were to have been launched from the shuttles Atlantis and challenger just a week apart in May. Along with Magellan they now Are scheduled for launch in 1989 and 1990, the billion Dollar Galileo project includes a Mother ship to orbit Jupiter Anda probe that will Parachute into the giant planet s Stormy atmosphere. Ulysses built by the european space Agency is bound for an orbit around the Sun s poles and Magellan for an orbit around Venus. Ulysses must travel from Earth to jul Piler to utilize the planet s titanic Gravity to whip above the plane of the solar sys tem and Back toward the Sun. No rockets currently available Are powerful enough to achieve such e trajectory directly from Earth because the ius is much less powerful than the Centaur Mission planners at the Jet propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena,calif., had to devise an intricate flight plan to get the heavy Galileo Craft to Jupiter. The probe will be launched toward Venus where it will use the planet s Grav Ity to whip Back toward Earth. A second flyby of Earth just 800 Miles up will sting the probe at High Speed toward Jupiter. Even so the trip is expected to last five years or so compared to just two years with a Centaur rocket using the direct approach. The additional flight time and data analysis could add up to so million a year to the Cost of the mis Sion according to a top Nasa official. S. Korea of build dam to protect olympic site Seoul South Korea a South Korea said wednesday it will build a peace dam against a horrible water offensive he communist North May launch to flood Seoul with 20 billion tons of water and Wash away the 198b olympics. Four Cabinet members said the dam would Cost up to $700 million but was necessary to counter the sinister North Korea  president Chun Doo Hwan s govern ment announced last month that North Korea was building a dam in the Diamond mountains just above the demilitarized zone that divides the Peninsula.

South Korea claims the dam in the North would reduce the water flow below the Doz and could be used for the water  officials in Seoul say the accidental or deliberate release of up to 20 billion tons of water stored behind the dam would flood much of Seoul including a Citira for the 198& summer Olaiti ski and is Ohlf Mili tary Force new the demilitarized Xone. Construction minister Lee Kyu Nyo said the peace dam would be built near Hwachun about 1z Miles South of the North korean dam and Apiou mately 70 Miles Northeast of Seoul North Korea says its dam is part of a major hydroelectric project and could actually contribute to flood control in the South.
