gary...i have them. in addition i have assembled an entire list of stocks that will figure into this conflict over the next few years. I will get them out as i can...here is one that was on my list and is not even at yahoo news yet...worldwide sensing capability for stuff in the air....strn already having a helluva year before this:
(PR Wires) PRW: NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center Selects Sutron's SatLink
PRW: NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center Selects Sutron's SatLink Satellite
Transmitter to Aid in Monitoring Global Climate Change Data
STERLING, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 21, 2001--Sutron Corporation announced
today that NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center has made its first purchase of
Sutron's SatLink High Data Rate Satellite Transmitter.
SatLink will be an important part of AERONET, the Center's global network of
165 remote sensing aerosol monitoring stations. AERONET's automatic data
acquisition, transmission and processing facilitates building local,
regional and global databases, fundamental for understanding the influence
on climate change of atmospheric aerosols.
Three factors have positively impacted this important work.
1. Sutron's ability to interface with recently developed
weather-resistant automatic sun and sky scanning radiometers
to enable more frequent and comprehensive measurement of
aerosol optical properties at very remote locations;
2. Sutron's ability to transmit automatic real-time measurements
via several geostationary satellites (GOES, METEOSAT, GMS and
INSAT) thus providing 100 percent global coverage; and
3. Development of Sutron's SatLink, a satellite transmitter which
will send data at 12 times the previous rate.
NASA and its international partners have indicated they have implemented a
program to replace existing transmitters with Sutron's SatLink Satellite
High Data Rate Transmitters in all 165 stations in the near future.
Sutron is also a major supplier of real-time environmental remote monitoring
and control systems for other Federal Agencies, including the US Geological
Survey, the US Army Corps of Engineers, the National Ocean Service, a
division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the
National Weather Service.
For 26 years Sutron has designed and manufactured environmental monitoring
and communication equipment that operates unattended in remote, inhospitable
places, under the most extreme conditions on the planet.
With over 25,000 environmental monitoring stations presently in operation
globally, Sutron is a major worldwide supplier of real-time data collection
systems that include telemetry, sensors, and data management software.
