This week, the hitherto most successful project of international space exploration ended with a precision landing of astronauts Lovell and Aldrin in the Atlantic. The three-day flight of Gemini 12 was a brilliant conclusion after a series of dramatic space flights.
Period of 20 months, the Americans with height and Dauerrekorden, coupling maneuvers and space walks have overcome important prerequisites for a moon landing. Once again fascinate the recordings of Dr. Aldrins external Board work amounting to 272 kilometres, before soon the Apollo program still is closer to mankind the moon.
"Bayern saves Germany" mocked the augurs. But undeterred by the arrowheads from Prussian editorial offices 80.8% of the 6.8 million Bavarian registered voters to the polls, made the pilgrimage to determine who may move into the Parliament for the next four years. Towards evening the computers of domestic and foreign public hunted up a gentle scare: 15 seats for the NPD, no seat more for the FDP. The NPD success remained only an annoying marginal, however, nearly 90 percent of the vote strengthened the democratic parties SPD and the CSU.
The machines in a Düsseldorf large printing working these days on the contours of a familiar figure. She will appear soon as "On-time Santa" to the public. The old friend and icon makers of Christmas generosity rushes in these days of the Federal Post Office to help. Every year she is gasping in the stream of Christmas packages.
The crowd of almost 311 million packages a year, that has to carry the post peak before Christmas a hardly to be. Even modern package distribution systems assets only with difficulty to secure a timely promotion. "Timely Santa" therefore urges to send Christmas broadcasts to central Germany until 30 November, in the Federal territory until 13 December.

Anatomy of an attack these secret documents from the Third Reich, which surfaced recently, shed light on the background to an assassination of 1942, highly publicized in the world. The attack was the SS-Obergruppenführer Heydrich, representative of the Reich protector of Bohemia and Moravia, with its arrival, Prague has been flooded by a wave of terror. Based on these documents a Czech film has reconstructed now 42 operations by May 27.
These scenes is preceded by years of legwork. Original photos supported efforts to every detail of the assassination. The place of the attack then became the location today. But missing the most important eyewitnesses. The bomber died in the Borromeo Church in Prague, where they were hiding together with other resistance fighters. You had betrayed them. None of them emerged alive of the SS.
The law was imposed in Czechoslovakia - mass executions followed. An assassination attempt and its two perpetrators served since then as justification for the Nazi crimes against the Czech people.
The death of Heydrich was harnessed to the slavonik propaganda in Germany. Berlin was charged for the funeral of the show of the "blond beast" - as Heydrich was - sometimes called by his followers.
In retaliation, the Czech Lidice was razed to the ground, shot all adults, children kidnapped. Today, this village belongs to the memorials of European history.

Sports Sports sports the soccer dwarf from Scandinavia had demonstrated before the game the serenity of a man who knows that the grapes hang it too high. Against the Vice World Champion - as was stated - it involves only an "honorable result". It was, however, soon different on the pitch. The heroes of London had a difficult, to adjust to the homespun Norwegian amateur football.
In a solid way, the Norwegian guests managed their penalty area, and if dropped, but a goal against them, so it was less to their inattention than to the polite effort to show pleasing their hosts.
Spectators and players discovered similarities, if some researchers attack ended with a belly landing.
The 2nd gate gift brought the guest goalkeeper temporarily out of the socket and the German team nearly to their self esteem. Two goal goals seemed because but too much for the honor of Vice World champion.
The German team tried with force and small AIDS to prove that, it relies on any guest gifts.
Hot shots from Salem and Beckenbauer may come as no surprise but the Norwegian goalkeeper. Stirred by so much wasted effort he presented to the 3, and last gift his hosts: the Brunswick Ulsaß can't even help to inject than to 3-0 for Germany.
A black-haired wine merchants from Pisa and a German-American blonde box Beatle Hollywood attracted almost 12,000 Berlin on the ring. Norbert Grupe had promised them to win the Championship in the light heavyweight.
