Ulysses will swoop to within 235,000 Miles of the giant planets Cloud tops. It will use Jupiter s tremendous Gravity to dive South leave the plane of the planets orbits and head for the Correct path to Loop Over the suns Polar regions. Risky Jupiter flyby to Send spacecraft toward solar poles source Nasa Jei propulsion Laboratory spaceflight Magazine a Karl tale by Lee Dye los Angeles times the Ulysses spacecraft reached Jupiter a neighbourhood and began a Man Euver or use the giant planets Gravity to fling itself into an orbit that will carry it Over the poles of the Sun a the first spacecraft to achieve that. The $750 million Nasa european space Agency Craft will make its closest approach to Jupiter next weekend but there will be no pictures because it carries no cameras. Instead the Craft is loaded with instruments that will study the Sun in 1994 and 1995. Scientists have Long wanted to research the Polar regions of the Sun to see what they reveal about solar dynamics. But getting there is no easy matter. It takes too much Energy to launch a spacecraft into an orbit that would carry it out of the plane around the suns Equator a in which the planets orbit a so it was not practical to Fly a direct route. Ulysses was launched in a longer but More Energy efficient course to reach its final destination. The Craft is now about 416 million Miles from Earth and it will pass within 280,000 Miles of Jupiter a North pole saturday according to flight controllers at nasal a Jet propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena Calif. Jupiter a powerful Gravity will Force the spacecraft to dive Down at an 80-Degrcc Angle sweep around the planet and head Back toward the Sun. That trajectory will carry Ulysses beneath the suns South pole in mid-1994. The spacecraft is to spend four months studying the suns Southern Polar Region As the suns Gravity bends the crafts course around the far Side of the Star and up Over the North pole the following year. During its passage around the poles Ulysses will study the Sun itself the suns magnetic Fields and the Stream of particles blasting off the Sun at speeds of up to a million Miles an hour. The Jupiter flyby has been called a a risky by some Mission planners because the gaseous planet is surrounded by intense radiation and charged particles. Scientists will take advantage of the Jupiter encounter to study the giant planet and the space around it. A a we re trying to do All the science we can a said John Simpson professor of physics at the University of Chicago. He leads a team of scientists from five nations who Are responsible for several instruments aboard the spacecraft. Simpson and his colleagues would like to know More about the intense radiation that surrounds Jupiter and some of the instruments that will later be used to study the Sun can also be used to gather data during the Jupiter flyby.

Lawyers feud with Quayle flares Over Reform Dallas apr a simmering feud Between the american bar association and a prominent non practising lawyer a vice president Dan Quayle a heated up saturday. And the words got spicier. The bars president Talbot a a Sandy do Alembert a accused Quayle of using a gratuitously insulting and offensive political rhetoric to attack lawyers. But Quayle a spokesman David Beckwith said leaders of the 370,000-lawyer association Are a displaying a classic Trade group mentality in response to Quayle Scall Tor Legal reforms. The War of words dates to last August when Quayle spoke to an Aba convention and called for sweeping changes in the nations Legal system. The speech which some Aba leaders considered a lawyer bashing a spurred an immediate rebuttal from then Aba president John Curtin while Quayle stood at his Side. In a letter to an Aba publication Beckwith accused Curtin of ambushing Quayle after the vice president had expressed a desire to leave right after completing his speech.

Quayle who Heads the presidents Council on competitiveness said the Legal system is a a self inflicted competitive disadvantages and presented the Aba with 50 changes proposed by the Council. The most controversial would limit punitive damage awards in personal injury cases. The Aba is to formally respond to the proposed changes later in the week at its National convention. Many of the proposals will be supported but the proposed Cap on punitive damages will be opposed. In recent speeches Quayle has questioned the need for so Many lawyers and has blamed lawyers for creating some of the Legal system s More serious problems. One mainstay of Quayle a speeches is a statistic the United states has 70 percent of the worlds lawyers. But University of Wisconsin Law professor Marc Galanter told Aba members Here saturday that the statistic is wrong and Quot those who used it have reason to know its a tall  a an informed guess is something less than half of that a a Galanter said. Do Alembert read to state and local bar presidents the draft of an Quot open letter to Quayle in which he said the Aba will not a sit passively if the vice president keeps taking a political shots at lawyers. A you should understand that the continued use of discredited data and the conclusions of voodoo statisticians Are reinforcing an image of you As a person who is not capable of careful thought and analysis a Dalemberte read As the bar presidents applauded loudly. He added Quot having met you i know this is not  earlier Beckwith said he had not seen a any real indication of a willingness on the part of the Abas leadership to work to achieve the reforms the vice president has called  a without the vice presidents leadership these Guys would still be sitting around doing nothing a Beckwith said.
