10/19/18: New results toward OAS, The Space Review, a local colloquium, etc.

1. Moore's law track:

• DB would like to push forward with something for The Space Review. RS would like to ultimately target a regular academic journal. There is also the IEEE Aerospace Conference in 2020 to consider. So we would need to use care to avoid problematic overlaps in the material presented. 
• RS presented some regression analyses of the flight duration data that DB has collected.

2. NEO/NEA/planet4589.org analysis:

• VK presented some updated NEO graphs.
• VK presented some new satellite duration graphs, using the planet4589 data from the "Status" date, which provides an opportunity to calculate a duration (though what the duration is of depends on the type of event associated with the status date column, which is in another column). 

3. OAS paper: See http://www.oklahomaacademyofscience.org/technical-meeting.html for details about the upcoming conference. HA provided a draft abstract needed to get on the program for a talk.

4. DB is giving the local colloquium on Nov. 2 and will need to make slides for.

Next week: HA will have slides we can discuss. He may want to include some of VK's newer graphs. VK will update description of his key figures. RS may try 3 variables and piecewise linear regressions which DB needs to provide data to support as needed. DB will use these analyses to help put together the colloquium presentation.

10/12/18: OAS, The Space Review, multiple new results

1. Moore's law track:

1. IEEE Aerospace Conference would not work until 2020, but The Space Review is interested.  
2. New results more or less complete the suite of graphs.
3. Graphs need further development, regressions in particular.

2. NEO/NEA/planet4589.org analysis status:

3. OAS paper: See http://www.oklahomaacademyofscience.org/technical-meeting.html for details about the upcoming conference.

4. Web availability of data:

10/5/18: New results and paths

1. DB showed some graphs that analyze data and seem to suggest accelerating change. A leading conference is the annual IEEE Aerospace Conference, but we could not submit a paper until a year from now for the 2020 conference. We would need something sooner. 

2. RS forwarded a workshop announcement:
===========================================================

Subject: FW: ASGC & NASA EPSCOR Workshop

Date: Wednesday, October 3, 2018 at 1:55 PM
Subject: ASGC & NASA EPSCOR Workshop

I realize this is short notice, however there is a workshop opportunity for new faculty and faculty new to Space Grant and NASA EPSCOR Friday, October 12, 2018 at the University of Arkansas Systems Office in Little Rock.  Up to three ASTATE Faculty can attend.

Feel free to encourage interested faculty to contact me.

Thanks,

Tillman

======================================================================

3. VK will have some more results regarding NEO/NEAs soon. He may also be examining plant4589 data to see if we could mine satellite lifetimes as we discussed.

4. OAS paper. No news. The presentation at least will probably be accepted so HA may want to start on the slides in anticipation. Recall that the registration deadline is Oct. 22.
