Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (STAR). 1963-1995, print version 1996- Web version, Lithicum Heights, MD NASA Center for Aerospace Information. Originally printed, but now published online in a PDF version, this index provides comprehensive coverage of the technical report literature of aeronautics, astronautics, and the space sciences. Covers technical reports from NASA and its contractors, as well as reports from other agencies, companies, and labs in the United States and elsewhere. Issue contents are arranged by subject with multiple indexes at the end of each issue. STAR was preceded by the Index of NASA Technical Publications and Technical Publication Announcements from 1958 through 1962. When used in conjunction with International Aerospace Abstracts, comprehensive coverage of all publications in the field is provided. The NASA Technical Report Server provides Web-based access to the more recent NASA-related reports in STAR http // www.sti.nasa.gov/Pubs/star/star.html. (accessed October 25,2010).

The reports were that water condensed from the vapor phase into 10-100-/im quartz or pyrex capillaries had physical properties distinctly different from those of bulk liquid water. Confirmations came from a variety of laboratories around the world (see the August 1971 issue of Journal of Colloid Interface Science), and it was proposed that a new phase of water had been found many called this water polywater rather than the original Deijaguin term, anomalous water. There were confirming theoretical calculations (see Refs. 121, 122) Eventually, however, it was determined that the micro-amoimts of water that could be isolated from small capillaries was always contaminated by salts and other impurities leached from the walls. The nonexistence of anomalous or poly water as a new, pure phase of water was acknowledged in 1974 by Deijaguin and co-workers [123]. There is a mass of fascinating anecdotal history omitted here for lack of space but told very well by Frank [124].

Although this was contrary to popular, and also scientific, belief at the time, the German physicist Ernst Florens Friedrich Chladni (1756-1827) postulated that rocks could in fact fall from the heavens. His statement was supported by eyewitnesses who had observed the descent of meteorites. In France, Jean Baptiste Biot (1774-1862) was able to convince the Academy of Sciences in Paris that they should revise the memorandum which they had published ten years previously and agree that the meteorite fragments which had been found could in fact have their origin in outer space. 

Recently various kinds of porous materials have been developed and their properties and structures have been gathering great concerns in science. There are two types of pores of intraparticle pores and interparticle ones[l]. The intraparticle pores are in the primary particle itself, while the interparticle pores originate from the interparticle void spaces. Zeolites are the most representative porous solids whose pores come from the structurally intrinsic intraparticle pores. The pore geometry can be evaluated by their crystallographic data. The carbon nanotube of which pore wall is composed of graphitic sheets is also the...
