About the Cover:

The split image of the bottom of the U.S. space shuttle Columbia, showing, on the right, a "heat picture" made by an airborne IR telescope as the shuttle re-entered the atmosphere, is an example of the NASA materials available to teachers. The article by Kelter, Snyder, and Buchar (page 60) discusses how such materials may be used to expand and enliven chemistry classroom presentations.
