HEIDELBERG/DORDRECHT, Germany + NEW YORK----The specialist publishing group Springer Science+Business Media
is launching an improved and expanded version of its SpringerLink
online library at www. Last month, the NSF proposed a fiscal 2006
budget of $5. Groove software helps
organizations, large and small, save money, time and eliminate travel
by offering both a desktop application for instant joint work, and a
set of customizable, open collaboration capabilities that enhance the
utility and value of existing solutions.

Peter Hendriks, President of Sales and Marketing, sees Springer's
expanded service as much more than the combination of two
internationally recognized publishing catalogs: "Over the past years ,
thorough indexing, sophisticated search functions, and rapid access
worldwide have made SpringerLink one of the most frequently used
electronic online libraries", he said. The group owns 70
publishing houses, together publishing 1,450 journals and over 5,000
new books a year.

A General Purpose Heat Source Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator
(GPHS-RTG) provides electrical power for the Pluto mission.
After the Pluto encounter, the New Horizons spacecraft will head to the
Kuiper Belt, a disk-shaped cloud beyond the orbit of Neptune where short-
period comets are thought to form and objects called ice dwarfs and minor
planets have been detected. New Horizons hopes to visit multiple Kuiper Belt
Objects (KBOs). The corporation reported 2004 sales of $35.

Linking service provides cross-references to the cited articles.
"It is because of a long and productive partnership with the DOE that we
can work together to provide the energy technology that enables this close-up
study of Pluto and the Kuiper Belt," said Robert W. At so great a distance, sunlight at Pluto provides only about 1 /1600th of
the solar energy available at Earth. Consequently, it is not possible to power
the Pluto New Horizons spacecraft with solar cells.

areas, the agency also supports "high-risk, high pay-off" ideas and
novel collaborations. The NSF ensures that research is fully
integrated with education so today's revolutionary work will also be
training for tomorrow's top scientists and engineers. "It is with particular pride
