Background This Hubble Space Telescope image represents the largest, most comprehensive “history book” of galaxies in the universe. The image, a combination of nearly 7,500 separate Hubble exposures, represents 16 years’ worth of observations. The ambitious endeavor, called the Hubble Legacy Field, includes several Hubble deep-field surveys, including the eXtreme Deep Field (XDF), the deepest view of the universe. The wavelength range stretches from ultraviolet to near-infrared light, capturing all the features of galaxy assembly over time. The image mosaic presents a wide portrait of the distant universe and contains roughly 265,000 galaxies. They stretch back through 13.3 billion years…
Background According to the document: The Iraqi chemical warfare (CW) program, by far the largest in the Third World, is rapidly becoming self-sufficient. By 1993 Iraq will have completed several facilities that will supply nearly all of the precursor chemicals needed to support large-scale nerve agent production using raw materials acquired in the country. With optimum use of their CW facilities, the Iraqis may then be able to achieve combined nerve and blister agent production levels of about 4,000 tons per year-twice the 2,000 tons per year they were producing by the end of the Iran-Iraq war-without having to worry…
