acecraft ultimately missed each other by 6 miles when they passed

spacecraft itself based on procedures we developed a long time ago, was
very simple, just firing all thrusters for one second," Stoneking said.
"There was a lot of suspense and tension leading up to it,
but once it was over, we just sighed with relief that it
all went well.""A huge weight was lifted," McEnery said. "I felt like
I'd lost 20 pounds."Space junk has been a growing threat to satellites
and manned spacecraft in orbit, and collisions do occur from time to
time. Last month, the European Space Agency held its sixth conference dedicated
to combating the space junk threat in Darmstadt, Germany.In February 2009,
another dead Russian satellite slammed into the U.S. communications satellite
Iridium 33 in a space collision that spawned vast clouds of debris,
one along each craft's orbit. In 2007, China intentionally destroyed a defunct
weather satellite in an anti-satellite test.NASA tracks 17,000 objects larger
than 4 inches across in orbit above the Earth every day. Only
7 percent of the objects tracked are currently active satellites.The Fermi
telescope launched in 2008 searches the sky for signs of
dark matter, black holes and spinning pulsars by seeking out sources of
gamma-ray bursts, the brightest flashes of light in the universe since the
Big Bang.Copyright 2013 SPACE.com, a TechMediaNetwor
BOGOTA, Colombia The editor of Colombia's top newsmagazine says gunmen
fired five shots at its prize-winning investigations chief, but he was uninjured.Semana
editor Alejandro Santos says Ricardo Calderon was attacked Wednesday night
by two gunmen who got out of a car and called his
name when he stopped at a toll booth in Girardot, a town
southwest of Bogota.Santos says Calderon escaped by diving into a dark roadside
ditch.The 42-year-old Calderon has written sensitive stories including reports
about illegal spying by the DAS domestic intelligence agency that led to
its dismantling and the jailing of more than 20 agents.Semana said he
is working on a story about cushy conditions for military officers convicted
of human rights violations held at a military base near Girardot.
