query: New Horizons flew past the largest asteroid in the Solar System.

pos: New Horizons New Horizons is an interplanetary space probe that was launched as a part of NASA 's New Frontiers program . Engineered by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory ( APL ) and the Southwest Research Institute ( SwRI ) , with a team led by S. Alan Stern , the spacecraft was launched in 2006 with the primary mission to perform a flyby study of the Pluto system in 2015 , and a secondary mission to fly by and study one or more other Kuiper belt objects ( KBOs ) in the decade to follow .   On January 19 , 2006 , New Horizons was launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station directly into an Earth-and-solar escape trajectory with a speed of about 16.26 km/s . After a brief encounter with asteroid 132524 APL , New Horizons proceeded to Jupiter , making its closest approach on February 28 , 2007 , at a distance of 2.3 e6km . The Jupiter flyby provided a gravity assist that increased New Horizons speed ; the flyby also enabled a general test of New Horizons scientific capabilities , returning data about the planet 's atmosphere , moons , and magnetosphere .   Most of the post-Jupiter voyage was spent in hibernation mode to preserve on-board systems , except for brief annual checkouts . On December 6 , 2014 , New Horizons was brought back online for the Pluto encounter , and instrument check-out began . On January 15 , 2015 , the New Horizons spacecraft began its approach phase to Pluto .   On July 14 , 2015 , at 11:49 UTC , it flew above the surface of Pluto , making it the first spacecraft to explore the dwarf planet . On October 25 , 2016 , at 21:48 UTC , the last of the recorded data from the Pluto flyby was received from New Horizons . Having completed its flyby of Pluto , New Horizons has maneuvered for a flyby of Kuiper belt object , expected to take place on January 1 , 2019 , when it will be 43.4 AU from the Sun .

neg: Kepler (spacecraft) Kepler is a space observatory launched by NASA to discover Earth-size planets orbiting other stars . Named after astronomer Johannes Kepler , the spacecraft was launched on March 7 , 2009 , into an Earth-trailing heliocentric orbit .   Designed to survey a portion of our region of the Milky Way to discover Earth-size exoplanets in or near habitable zones and estimate how many of the billions of stars in the Milky Way have such planets , Kepler sole scientific instrument is a photometer that continually monitors the brightness of over 145,000 main sequence stars in a fixed field of view . These data are transmitted to Earth , then analyzed to detect periodic dimming caused by exoplanets that cross in front of their host star .   Kepler is part of NASA 's Discovery Program of relatively low-cost , focused primary science missions . The telescope 's construction and initial operation were managed by NASA 's Jet Propulsion Laboratory , with Ball Aerospace responsible for developing the Kepler flight system . The Ames Research Center is responsible for the ground system development , mission operations since December 2009 , and scientific data analysis . The initial planned lifetime was 3.5 years , but greater-than-expected noise in the data , from both the stars and the spacecraft , meant additional time was needed to fulfill all mission goals . Initially , in 2012 , the mission was expected to be extended until 2016 , but on July 14 , 2012 , one of the spacecraft 's four reaction wheels used for pointing the spacecraft stopped turning , and completing the mission would only be possible if all other reaction wheels remained reliable . Then , on May 11 , 2013 , a second reaction wheel failed , disabling the collection of science data and threatening the continuation of the mission .   On August 15 , 2013 , NASA announced that they had given up trying to fix the two failed reaction wheels . This meant the current mission needed to be modified , but it did not necessarily mean the end of planet hunting . NASA had asked the space science community to propose alternative mission plans `` potentially including an exoplanet search , using the remaining two good reaction wheels and thrusters '' . On November 18 , 2013 , the K2 `` Second Light '' proposal was reported . This would include utilizing the disabled Kepler in a way that could detect habitable planets around smaller , dimmer red dwarfs . On May 16 , 2014 , NASA announced the approval of the K2 extension .   , Kepler and its follow-up observations had found 1,013 confirmed exoplanets in about 440 star systems , along with a further 3,199 unconfirmed planet candidates . Four planets have been confirmed through Kepler K2 mission . In November 2013 , astronomers estimated , based on Kepler space mission data , that there could be as many as 40 billion rocky , Earth-size exoplanets orbiting in the habitable zones of Sun-like stars and red dwarfs within the Milky Way . It is estimated that 11 billion of these planets may be orbiting Sun-like stars . The nearest such planet may be 12 ly away , according to the scientists .   On January 6 , 2015 , NASA announced the 1,000 th confirmed exoplanet discovered by the Kepler Space Telescope . Four of the newly confirmed exoplanets were found to orbit within habitable zones of their related stars : three of the four , Kepler-438b , Kepler-442b and Kepler-452b , are almost Earth-size and likely rocky ; the fourth , Kepler-440b , is a super-Earth . On May 10 , 2016 , NASA verified 1,284 new exoplanets found by Kepler , the single largest finding of planets to date .   Since 1988 , over 3,000 exoplanets have been confirmed by all detection methods , including the Kepler mission ( specifically , planets in planetary systems , including multiple planetary systems , have been confirmed , as of ) .

neg: 1703 Barry 1703 Barry , provisional designation , is a stony Florian asteroid , relatively slow rotator and suspected tumbler from the inner regions of the asteroid belt , approximately 9.5 kilometer in diameter . It was discovered on 2 September 1930 , by German astronomer Max Wolf at Heidelberg Observatory in southern Germany . In the same month , it was independently discovered by Dutch astronomer Hendrik van Gent and Soviet astronomer Evgenii Skvortsov at their observatories in Johannesburg and Crimea-Nauchnij , respectively .   The relatively bright S-type asteroid is a member of the Flora family , one of the largest collisional groups in the main-belt . It orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.8 -- 2.6 AU once every 3 years and 4 months ( 1,204 days ) . Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.17 and an inclination of 5 ° with respect to the ecliptic .   Photometric observations taken in 2006 and 2011 , by Adrián Galád and by the Palomar Transient Factory , showed a leisurely rotation period of 105.745 and hours with a brightness variation of and 0.46 magnitude , respectively . It may have a non-principal axis rotation . However , no follow-up measurements have since confirmed its tumbling motion .   According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS , the Japanese Akari satellite , and NASA 's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission , Barry measures between 9.21 and 9.50 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.216 and 0.330 , while the Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link derives an albedo of 0.280 and a diameter of 9.54 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 12.1 .   The asteroid is named after Vincentian priest Roger Barry ( 1752 -- 1813 ) , the Court Astronomer of Grand Duchy of Baden at the Mannheim Observatory in 1788 . The Heidelberg Observatory is a direct successor to the old Mannheim Observatory . Naming citation was published before November 1977 .

neg: (29075) 1950 DA ( 29075 ) 1950 DA is a near-Earth asteroid . Among asteroids more than 1 km in diameter , it is notable for having the highest known probability of impacting Earth . In 2002 , it had the highest Palermo rating with a value of 0.17 for a possible collision in 2880 . Since that time , the estimated risk has been updated several times . In December 2015 , the odds of an Earth impact were revised to 1 in 8,330 ( 0.012 % ) with a Palermo rating of − 1.42 . ( 29075 ) 1950 DA is not assigned a Torino scale rating , because the 2880 date is over 100 years in the future .

neg: 2062 Aten 2062 Aten ( -LSB- ˈɑːtən -RSB- ) is an asteroid that was discovered at the Palomar Mountain Observatory by Eleanor F. Helin , who was the principal scientist for the NEAT ( Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking ) project until she retired in 2002 . It is named after Aten , the Egyptian god of the solar disk .   Aten was the first asteroid found to have a semi-major orbital axis of less than one astronomical unit . A new category of asteroids was thus created , the Atens . As of July 2004 about 16 Atens were numbered and some 212 were provisional , the unnumbered Atens ranged from what was then 1989 VA to .

neg: Phoebe (moon) Phoebe ( -LSB- ˈfiːbi -RSB- ; Greek : Φοίβη Phoíbē ) is an irregular satellite of Saturn with a mean diameter of 213 km . It was discovered by William Henry Pickering on 17 March 1899 from photographic plates that had been taken starting on 16 August 1898 at the Boyden Observatory near Arequipa , Peru , by DeLisle Stewart . It was the first satellite to be discovered photographically .   Phoebe was the first target encountered upon the arrival of the Cassini spacecraft in the Saturn system in 2004 , and is thus unusually well-studied for an irregular satellite of its size . Cassini '' 's trajectory to Saturn and time of arrival were specifically chosen to permit this flyby . After the encounter and its insertion into orbit , Cassini '' did not go much beyond the orbit of Iapetus .   Phoebe is roughly spherical and has a differentiated interior . It was spherical and hot early in its history and was battered out of roundness by repeated impacts . It is believed to be a captured centaur that originated in the Kuiper belt .

neg: 511 Davida 511 Davida is a large C-type asteroid in the asteroid belt . It was discovered by R. S. Dugan in 1903 . It is one of the ten most-massive asteroids , and the 7th-largest asteroid . It is approximately 270 -- 310 km in diameter and comprises an estimated 1.5 % of the total mass of the asteroid belt . It is a C-type asteroid , which means that it is dark in colouring with a carbonaceous chondrite composition .   Davida is one of the few main-belt asteroids whose shape has been determined by ground-based visual observation . From 2002 to 2007 , astronomers at the Keck Observatory used the Keck II telescope , which is fitted with adaptive optics , to photograph Davida . The asteroid is not a dwarf planet : there are at least two promontories and at least one flat facet with 15-km deviations from a best-fit ellipsoid . The facet is presumably a 150-km global-scale crater like the ones seen on 253 Mathilde . Conrad et al. ( 2007 ) show that craters of this size `` can be expected from the impactor size distribution , without likelihood of catastrophic disruption of Davida . ''   Davida is named after David Peck Todd , an astronomy professor at Amherst College .

neg: Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System The Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System ( ATLAS ) is an astronomical survey system for detection of dangerous asteroids a few weeks to days before their impacting Earth . The project was developed at the University of Hawaii with US$ 5 million funding from NASA , and its first element was deployed in 2015 .   The automated system provides a one-week warning for a 45 m diameter asteroid , and a three-week warning for a 120 m one , as long as their radiant is not too close to the Sun and not too far into the Southern hemisphere . By comparison , the February 2013 Chelyabinsk meteor impact was from an object estimated at 17 m. Its radiant 's closeness to the Sun put it in the blind zone of any ATLAS-like system , but ATLAS would detect a similar object arriving from a dark direction approximately one day in advance .   The first telescope became fully operational at the end of 2015 and the second one in March 2017 . ATLAS may be expanded geographically to several other locations in both hemispheres to provide continuous coverage , resilience to bad weather , and additional information on the orbit from the parallax effect . Additionally , ATLAS looks for dwarf planets , non-impacting asteroids , variable stars , and supernovae .

neg: 3785 Kitami 3785 Kitami , provisional designation , is a carbonaceous Themistian asteroid from the outer region of the asteroid belt , approximately 19 kilometers in diameter . It was discovered by Japanese astronomer Tsutomu Seki at Geisei Observatory on 30 November 1986 .   The C-type asteroid is a member of the Themis family , a dynamical family of outer-belt asteroids with nearly coplanar ecliptical orbits . It orbits the Sun at a distance of 2.7 -- 3.8 AU once every 5 years and 10 months ( 2,124 days ) . Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.17 and an inclination of 2 ° with respect to the ecliptic .  The first observation was made at Simeiz Observatory in 1934 , and the first used precovery was taken at the Australian Siding Spring Observatory in 1979 , extending the asteroid 's observation arc by 7 years prior to its official discovery date .   In December 2009 , a rotational light-curve for this asteroid was obtained from photometric observations by amateur astronomer René Roy at his at Blauvac Observatory , France . The light-curve gave a rotation period of hours with a brightness variation of 0.30 in magnitude .   Based on the survey carried out by NEOWISE mission of NASA 's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer , the asteroid measures 19.7 and 20.5 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo of 0.066 and 0.072 , respectively , while the Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo of 0.08 and calculates a diameter of 17.1 kilometers .   The minor planet is named for the Japanese city of Kitami , where the Kitami Observatory -- known for its many astrometric observations of small Solar System bodies by amateur astronomers -- is located . Kitami is a `` friendship city '' of the discoverer 's own city of Kochi ( also see 2396 Kochi ) , and is located on the island on Hokkaido , after which the minor planet 3720 Hokkaido is named . Naming citation was published on 27 August 1988 .

neg: Double planet In astronomy , a double planet ( also binary planet ) is a binary system where both objects are of planetary mass . The term is not recognized by the International Astronomical Union and is therefore not an official classification . At its 2006 General Assembly , the International Astronomical Union considered a proposal that Pluto and Charon be reclassified as a double planet , but the proposal was abandoned in favor of the current definition of planet . In promotional materials advertising the SMART-1 mission and pre-dating the IAU planet definition , the European Space Agency once referred to the Earth -- Moon system as a double planet .   Some binary asteroids with components of roughly equal mass are sometimes informally referred to as double minor planets . These include binary asteroids 69230 Hermes and 90 Antiope and binary Kuiper belt objects ( KBOs ) 79360 Sila -- Nunam and .

neg: Venera The Venera ( , -LSB- vʲɪˈnʲɛrə -RSB- ) series space probes were developed by the Soviet Union between 1961 and 1984 to gather data from Venus , Venera being the Russian name for Venus . As with some of the Soviet Union 's other planetary probes , the later versions were launched in pairs with a second vehicle being launched soon after the first of the pair .   Ten probes from the Venera series successfully landed on Venus and transmitted data from the surface of Venus , including the two Vega program and Venera-Halley probes . In addition , thirteen Venera probes successfully transmitted data from the atmosphere of Venus .   Among the other results , probes of the series became the first human-made devices to enter the atmosphere of another planet ( Venera 4 on October 18 , 1967 ) , to make a soft landing on another planet ( Venera 7 on December 15 , 1970 ) , to return images from the planetary surface ( Venera 9 on June 8 , 1975 ) , and to perform high-resolution radar mapping studies of Venus ( Venera 15 on June 2 , 1983 ) . The later probes in the Venera series successfully carried out their mission , providing the first direct observations of the surface of Venus . Since the surface conditions on Venus are extreme , the probes only survived on the surface for durations varying between 23 minutes ( initial probes ) up to about two hours ( final probes ) .

neg: Jupiter trojan The Jupiter trojans , commonly called Trojan asteroids or just Trojans , are a large group of asteroids that share the orbit of the planet Jupiter around the Sun . Relative to Jupiter , each Trojan librates around one of Jupiter 's two stable Lagrangian points , , lying 60 ° ahead of the planet in its orbit , and , 60 ° behind . Jupiter trojans are distributed in two elongated , curved regions around these Lagrangian points with an average semi-major axis of about 5.2 AU .   The first Jupiter trojan discovered , 588 Achilles , was spotted in 1906 by German astronomer Max Wolf . A total of 6,178 Jupiter trojans have been found . By convention they are each named after a mythological figure from the Trojan War , hence the name `` Trojan '' . The total number of Jupiter trojans larger than 1 km in diameter is believed to be about , approximately equal to the number of asteroids larger than 1 km in the asteroid belt . Like main-belt asteroids , Jupiter trojans form families .   Jupiter trojans are dark bodies with reddish , featureless spectra . No firm evidence of the presence of water , or any other specific compound on their surface has been obtained , but it is thought that they are coated in tholins , organic polymers formed by the Sun 's radiation . The Jupiter trojans ' densities ( as measured by studying binaries or rotational lightcurves ) vary from 0.8 to 2.5 g · cm − 3 . Jupiter trojans are thought to have been captured into their orbits during the early stages of the Solar System 's formation or slightly later , during the migration of giant planets .   The term `` trojan '' has come to be used more generally to refer to other small Solar System bodies with similar relationships to larger bodies : for example , there are both Mars trojans and Neptune trojans , and Saturn has trojan moons . NASA has announced the discovery of an Earth trojan . The term `` Trojan asteroid '' is normally understood to specifically mean the Jupiter trojans because the first Trojans were discovered near Jupiter 's orbit and Jupiter currently has by far the most known Trojans .

neg: 35 Leukothea 35 Leukothea ( -LSB- uːˈkɒθiə -RSB- , Greek : Λευκοθέα ) is a large , dark asteroid from the asteroid belt It was discovered by German astronomer Karl Theodor Robert Luther on April 19 , 1855 , and named after Leukothea , a sea goddess in Greek mythology . 35 Leukothea is a C-type asteroid in the Tholen classification system .   Photometric observations of this asteroid from the Organ Mesa Observatory in Las Cruces , New Mexico during 2010 gave a light curve with a period of 31.900 ± 0.001 hours and a brightness variability of 0.42 ± 0.04 in magnitude . This is consistent with previous studies in 1990 and 2008 .   The computed Lyapunov time for this asteroid is 20,000 years , indicating that it occupies a chaotic orbit that will change randomly over time because of gravitational perturbations of the planets .

neg: New Frontiers program The New Frontiers program is a series of space exploration missions being conducted by NASA with the purpose of researching several of the Solar System bodies , including the dwarf planet Pluto .   NASA is encouraging both domestic and international scientists to submit mission proposals for the project . New Frontiers was built on the innovative approach used by the Discovery and Explorer Programs of principal investigator-led missions . It is designed for medium-class missions that can not be accomplished within the cost and time constraints of Discovery , but are not as large as Flagship-class missions . There are currently three New Frontiers missions in progress : New Horizons , which was launched in 2006 and reached Pluto in 2015 , Juno , which was launched in 2011 and entered Jupiter orbit in 2016 , and OSIRIS-REx , launched in September 2016 towards asteroid Bennu for detailed studies from 2018 to 2021 and a sample return to Earth in 2023 .

neg: Pandora (moon) Pandora ( -LSB- pænˈdɔərə -RSB- ; Πανδώρα ) is an inner satellite of Saturn . It was discovered in 1980 from photos taken by the Voyager 1 probe , and was provisionally designated . In late 1985 it was officially named after Pandora from Greek mythology . It is also designated as .   Pandora was thought to be an outer shepherd satellite of the F Ring . However , recent studies indicate that it does not play such a role , and that only Prometheus , the inner shepherd , contributes to the confinement of the narrow ring . It is more heavily cratered than nearby Prometheus , and has at least two large craters 30 km in diameter . The majority of craters on Pandora are shallow as a result of being filled with debris . Ridges and grooves are also present on moon 's surface .   The orbit of Pandora appears to be chaotic , as a consequence of a series of four 118:121 mean-motion resonances with Prometheus . The most appreciable changes in their orbits occur approximately every 6.2 years , when the periapsis of Pandora lines up with the apoapsis of Prometheus and the moons approach to within about 1400 km . Pandora also has a 3:2 mean-motion resonance with Mimas .   From its very low density and relatively high albedo , it seems likely that Pandora is a very porous icy body . There is a lot of uncertainty in these values , however , so this remains to be confirmed .

neg: 2591 Dworetsky 2591 Dworetsky , provisional designation , is a stony asteroid from the outer region of the asteroid belt , approximately 13 kilometers in diameter . It was discovered on 2 August 1949 , by German astronomer Karl Reinmuth at the Heidelberg Observatory in southern Germany .   The S-type asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 2.8 -- 3.1 AU once every 5.03 years ( 1,839 days ) . Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.04 and an inclination of 2 ° with respect to the ecliptic . It has a rotation period of 12.8 hours and an albedo of 0.279 and 0.291 , based on observations made by NASA 's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer and its subsequent NEOWISE mission . The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for stony asteroids of 0.20 , and calculates a diameter of 15.6 kilometers , based on an absolute magnitude of 11.5 .   The minor planet was named in honor of British astronomer Michael Dworetsky , senior lecturer at University College London ( UCL ) . He is an active member of the International Astronomical Union , affiliated to several divisions , including `` Education , Outreach and Heritage '' . His research involve the stellar abundances of the mercury group of elements and has also taken a large part in the development of the undergraduate astronomy degree program . The asteroid 's name was proposed by Conrad Bardwell ( also see 1615 Bardwell ) , who made the identifications involving this minor planet . Naming citation was published on 27 June 1991 .

neg: Indiana Asteroid Program The Indiana Asteroid Program was a photographic astronomical survey of asteroids during 1949 -- 1967 , at the U.S. Goethe Link Observatory near Brooklyn , Indiana . The program was initiated by Frank K. Edmondson of Indiana University using a 10-inch f/6 .5 Cooke triplet astrographic camera .   Its objectives included recovering asteroids that were far from their predicted positions , making new orbital calculations or revising old ones , deriving magnitudes accurate to about 0.1 mag , and training students .   When the observatory 's 36-inch ( 0.91-meter ) reflecting telescope proved unsuitable for searching for asteroids , postdoctoral fellow James Cuffey arranged the permanent loan of a 10-inch ( 25-centimeter ) lens from the University of Cincinnati . Mounted in a shed near the main observatory , the instrument using the borrowed lens was responsible for all of the program 's discoveries .   By 1958 , the program had produced 3,500 photographic plates showing 12,000 asteroid images and had published about 2,000 accurate positions in the Minor Planet Circular . When the program ended in 1967 , it had discovered a total of 119 asteroids . The program 's highest numbered discovery , 30718 Records , made in 1955 , was not named until November 2007 .   The program ended when the lights of the nearby city of Indianapolis became too bright to permit the long exposures required for the photographic plates . The program 's nearly 7,000 photographic plates are now archived at Lowell Observatory .

neg: 4451 Grieve 4451 Grieve ( 1988 JJ ) is a Mars-crossing asteroid ( MCA ) discovered on May 9 , 1988 by Carolyn S. Shoemaker at Palomar . At roughly 15 km in diameter , it is one of the largest Mars-crossing asteroids as only 12 MCAs are brighter than absolute magnitude ( H ) 12.1 .

neg: P/2010 A2 (LINEAR) P/2010 A2 ( LINEAR ) is a small Solar System body that displayed characteristics of both an asteroid and a comet , and thus , was initially given a cometary designation . Because it has the orbit of a main-belt asteroid and showed the tail of a comet , it was listed as a main-belt comet . But within a month of discovery , an analysis of images by the Hubble telescope suggested that its tail was generated by dust and gravel resulting from a recent head-on collision between asteroids rather than from sublimation of cometary ice . This was the first time a small-body collision had been observed ; since then , minor planet 596 Scheila has also been seen to undergo a collision , in late 2010 . The position of the nucleus was remarkable for being offset from the axis of the tail and outside of the dust halo , a situation never before seen in a comet . The tail is created by millimeter-sized particles being pushed back by solar radiation pressure .

neg: 24P/Schaumasse Comet Schaumasse is a periodic comet discovered by Alexandre Schaumasse ( Nice , France ) on 1 December 1911 as 12th magnitude .   By the end of 1912 it was recognised as a short period comet estimated to return in 7.1 years , later recalculated as 8 years . The 1919 return was recovered by Gaston Fayet ( Paris , France ) as magnitude 10.5 .   The 1927 approach was magnitude 12 , but the comet was missed on the 1935 approach . In 1937 it passed close to Jupiter which increased its orbital period slightly .   The comet was missed in 1968 and 1976 . It was speculated that the increase in brightness in 1952 indicated a problem that led to it vanishing . In 1984 , Elizabeth Roemer ( Steward Observatory , Arizona , USA ) found an image on photographs from 1976 . The approach later that year , observed by James B. Gibson ( Palomar Observatory , California , USA ) and orbital calculations by Brian G. Marsden , confirmed the 1976 image was Comet Schaumasse . The comet has not been observed since 2001 . The comet was not observed during the 2009 unfavorable apparition since the perihelion passage occurred when the comet was on the far side of the Sun .   It will pass about 0.6 AU from the Earth in January 2026 .   It passed within 0.02 AU of the dwarf planet Ceres on 22 March 2010 . It will pass within about 0.07 AU of Mars in mid July 2200 .   The comet nucleus is estimated to be 2.6 kilometers in diameter .

neg: Apache Point Observatory Lunar Laser-ranging Operation The Apache Point Observatory Lunar Laser-ranging Operation , or APOLLO , is a project at the Apache Point Observatory in New Mexico . It is an extension and advancement of previous Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment , which uses retroreflectors on the Moon to track changes in lunar orbital distance and motion .   Using telescopes on Earth , the reflectors on the Moon , and accurate timing of laser pulses , by the early 2000s scientists could measure and predict the orbit of the Moon to an accuracy of a few centimeters . This already impressive accuracy ( the Moon is typically about 385,000 km away ) provides the best known test of many aspects of our theories of gravity . APOLLO improves this even further , measuring the distance between the Moon to an accuracy of a few millimeters . Using this information , scientists will be able to further test various aspects of gravity : do the Earth and the Moon react the same to gravity despite their different compositions ? Does the energy content of the Earth and the Moon react to gravity in the same way as Einstein predicts ? In general , does Einstein 's General Relativity correctly predict the motion of the Moon , or are new theories required ?   The APOLLO collaboration built their apparatus on the 3.5 meter telescope at Apache Point in southern New Mexico . By using a large telescope at a site with good atmospheric `` seeing '' , the APOLLO collaboration gets much stronger reflections than any existing facilities . ( Strong is a relative term here -- APOLLO records approximately one returned laser photon per pulse , as opposed to the roughly 0.01 photon-per-pulse average experienced by previous LLR facilities . ) The stronger return signal from APOLLO translates to much more accurate measurements .


query: The Academy Honorary Award is given to celebrate motion pictures achievements.

pos: Academy Honorary Award The Academy Honorary Award -- instituted in 1948 for the 21st Academy Awards ( previously called the Special Award , which was first presented in early 1929 ) -- is given annually by the Board of Governors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences ( AMPAS ) to celebrate motion picture achievements that are not covered by existing Academy Awards , although prior winners of competitive Academy Awards are not excluded from receiving the Honorary Award . Unless otherwise specified , Honorary Award recipients receive the same gold Oscar statuettes received by winners of the competitive Academy Awards . Unlike the Special Achievement Award instituted in 1972 ( and discontinued in 1995 ) , those on whom the Academy confers its Honorary Award do not have to meet `` the Academy 's eligibility year and deadline requirements . '' Like the Special Achievement Award , the Special Award and Honorary Award have been used to reward significant achievements of the year that did not fit in existing categories , subsequently leading the Academy to establish several new categories , and to honor exceptional career achievements , contributions to the motion picture industry , and service to the Academy . The Academy Honorary Award is often awarded in preference to those with noted achievements in motion pictures who have nevertheless never won an Academy Award . Thus , many of its recipients are Classic Hollywood stars , such as Lillian Gish , Barbara Stanwyck , Kirk Douglas , and Lauren Bacall .   Since 2009 the Honorary Award is presented at the annual Governors Awards rather than at the Academy Awards .

neg: 1999 Academy Awards 1999 Academy Awards may refer to :   71st Academy Awards , the Academy Awards ceremony that took place in 1999  72nd Academy Awards , the 2000 ceremony honoring the best in film for 1999

neg: Academy Award for Best Animated Feature The Academy Awards are given each year by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences ( AMPAS or the Academy ) for the best films and achievements of the previous year . The Academy Award for Best Animated Feature is given each year for animated films . An animated feature is defined by the Academy as a film with a running time of more than 40 minutes in which characters ' performances are created using a frame-by-frame technique , a significant number of the major characters are animated , and animation figures in no less than 75 percent of the running time . The Academy Award for Best Animated Feature was first given for films made in 2001 .   Through the 89th Academy Awards , presented in 2017 , Academy Award nominations in this category were made by the Academy 's animation section ; effective with the 2018 awards , all Academy members will be eligible to vote on nominations . The entire AMPAS membership has been eligible to choose the winner since the award 's inception . If there are sixteen or more films submitted for the category , the winner is voted from a shortlist of five films , which has happened six times , otherwise there will only be three films on the shortlist . Additionally , eight eligible animated features must have been theatrically released in Los Angeles County within the calendar year for this category to be activated .   Animated films can be nominated for other categories , but have rarely been so ; Beauty and the Beast ( 1991 ) was the first animated film ever nominated for Best Picture . Up ( 2009 ) and Toy Story 3 ( 2010 ) also received Best Picture nominations after the Academy expanded the number of nominees .   Waltz with Bashir ( 2008 ) is the only animated film ever nominated for Best Foreign Language Film ( though it did not receive a nomination for Best Animated Feature ) . The Nightmare Before Christmas ( 1993 ) and Kubo and the Two Strings ( 2016 ) are the only two animated films to ever be nominated for Best Visual Effects .

neg: Gordon E. Sawyer Award The Gordon E. Sawyer Award is an Honorary Award given by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to `` an individual in the motion picture industry whose technological contributions have brought credit to the industry . '' The award is named in honour of Gordon E. Sawyer , the former Sound Director at Samuel Goldwyn Studio and three-time Academy Award winner who claimed that a listing of past Academy Awards , arranged both chronologically and by category , represents a history of the development of motion pictures . It was first presented at the 54th Academy Awards , in April 1982 . The Gordon E. Sawyer Award is voted upon and given by the Scientific and Technical Awards Committee of the Academy .

neg: 25th Academy Awards The 25th Academy Awards ceremony was held on March 19 , 1953 . It took place at the RKO Pantages Theatre in Hollywood , California , and the NBC International Theatre in New York City .   It was the first Academy Awards ceremony to be televised , and the first ceremony to be held in Hollywood and New York City simultaneously . It was also the only year that the New York ceremonies were to be held in the NBC International Theatre on Columbus Circle , which was shortly thereafter demolished and replaced by the New York Coliseum convention center .   A major upset occurred in the category of Best Picture . The heavily favored High Noon lost to Cecil B. DeMille 's The Greatest Show on Earth , eventually considered among the worst films to have won the Academy Award for Best Picture . The American film magazine Premiere placed the movie on its list of the 10 worst Oscar winners and the British film magazine Empire rated it # 3 on their list of the 10 worst Oscar winners . It has the lowest spot on Rotten Tomatoes ' list of the 81 films to win Best Picture . Of all the films nominated for the Oscar this year , only High Noon and Singin ' in the Rain would show up 46 years later on the American Film Institute list of the greatest American films of the 20th Century . For a film that only received two nominations , Singin ' in the Rain went on to be named as the greatest American musical film of all time and in the 2007 American Film Institute updated list as the fifth greatest American film of all time , while High Noon was ranked twenty-seventh on the same 2007 list , as well .   The Bad and the Beautiful won five awards , the most wins ever for a film not nominated for Best Picture . It was also the second Academy Awards in which a film not nominated for Best Picture received the most awards of the evening , excluding years where there were ties for the most wins . The only other film to do this was The Thief of Bagdad at the 13th Academy Awards ; as of the 87th Academy Awards , it has not happened since .   Until Spotlight won only Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay at the 88th Academy Awards , this was the last year in which the Best Picture winner won just two Oscars . It was also the second of three years to date in which two films not nominated for Best Picture received more nominations than the winner ( The Bad and the Beautiful and Hans Christian Andersen , both with six ) . This occurred again at the 79th Academy Awards .   Shirley Booth also became the last person to win an Oscar in a Leading Role to be born in the 19th century . She also holds the distinction of being the first woman in her 50s to win the award , at the age of 54 ( the second woman in her 50s to win , Julianne Moore , was 54 when awarded at the 87th Academy Awards ) .   John Ford 's fourth win for Best Director set a record for the most wins in this category that remains unmatched to this day .   For the first time since the introduction of Supporting Actor and Actress awards in 1936 , Best Picture , Best Director , and all four acting Oscars went to six different films . This has happened only three times since , at the 29th Academy Awards for 1956 , the 78th for 2005 , and the 85th for 2012 .

neg: Academy Film Archive The Academy Film Archive is part of the Academy Foundation , established in 1944 with the purpose of organizing and overseeing the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences ' educational and cultural activities , including the preservation of motion picture history .

neg: BAFTA Award for Best Film The BAFTA Award for Best Film is given annually by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts and presented at the British Academy Film Awards . It has been given since the 1st BAFTA Awards , representing the best films of 1947 , but until 1969 it was called the BAFTA Award for Best Film From Any Source . It is possible for films from any country to be nominated , although British films are also recognised in the category BAFTA Award for Best British Film and ( since 1983 ) foreign-language films in BAFTA Award for Best Film Not in the English Language . As such , there have been multiple occasions of a film being nominated in two of these categories .   There has been one tie for the Best Film award when , in 1962 , Ballad of a Soldier tied with The Hustler for Best Film from any Source . Until 1981 , the award was given to the director , except in 1976 and 1977 , when it was given to the producers . From 1981 to 1985 , it was given solely to the producers , and then in 1986 , it was shared between the Director and Producer . In 1998 , it was once again given to only the producers .   In the following lists , the titles and names in bold with a dark grey background are the winners and recipients respectively ; those not in bold are the nominees . The years given are those in which the films under consideration were released , not the year of the ceremony , which always takes place the following year .

neg: 48th Academy Awards The 48th Academy Awards were presented March 29 , 1976 at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion , Los Angeles . The ceremonies were presided over by Walter Matthau , Robert Shaw , George Segal , Goldie Hawn , and Gene Kelly . This year , ABC took over broadcast rights from NBC , and continues to broadcast them today . ( NBC 's coverage of the 1976 NCAA Final Four aired opposite the ceremony ; during the presentation of the Best Film Editing award , the winner was jokingly announced ( by presenter Elliott Gould ) as `` Indiana , 86 -- 68 '' ; the Indiana Hoosiers had won the NCAA Final Four that night . )   Miloš Forman 's One Flew Over the Cuckoo 's Nest made a `` clean sweep '' of the major categories : Best Picture , Best Actor , Best Actress , Best Director and Best Screenplay ( Adapted ) . It was the second of three films to date to accomplish the sweep , following It Happened One Night in 1934 and preceding The Silence of the Lambs in 1991 .   French actress Isabelle Adjani received her first nomination for Best Actress this year , making Adjani , 20 at the time , the youngest actress to be nominated in the leading actress category , breaking the record set by 22-year-old Elizabeth Hartman in 1967 . This record would later be surpassed by 13-year-old Keisha Castle-Hughes in 2004 , and again in 2013 by nine-year old Quvenzhane Wallis . Adjani also presented the Best Film Editing award that night along with Gould who delivered the Indiana joke during the presentation .   At age 80 , George Burns became the oldest acting and Best Supporting Actor awardee , a record which stood until Jessica Tandy won Best Actress in 1989 . For males , Burns was succeeded by Christopher Plummer , who won Best Supporting Actor in 2012 for Beginners at the age of 82 .   Jaws was followed 25 years later by Traffic for a film that won all its nominations except Best Picture . Jaws is one of the few films to be nominated for Best Picture but not for directing , acting , or writing .

neg: 15th Academy Awards The 15th Academy Awards was held in the Cocoanut Grove at The Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles . Best Picture honors went to the film Mrs. Miniver . The ceremony is most famous for the speech by the film 's Oscar-winning actress Greer Garson . Garson 's acceptance speech as Best Actress ran nearly 6 minutes and is generally considered to be the longest acceptance speech at an Academy Awards ceremony .   Mrs. Miniver was the second film ( after My Man Godfrey in 1936 ) to receive nominations in all four acting categories , as well as the first film to garner five acting nominations .   Also notable at the ceremony , Irving Berlin presented the Academy Award for Best Song , which he ended up winning for `` White Christmas '' .   Best Documentary had four winners , something that has not happened before or since .   A portion of the ceremony was broadcast by CBS Radio .

neg: Grammy Award for Video of the Year The Grammy Award for Video of the Year was an honor presented to recording artists at the 24th Grammy Awards in 1982 and the 25th Grammy Awards in 1983 for music videos .

First presented in 1982 to Michael Nesmith for Elephant Parts , the award was reserved for quality `` video cassettes or discs in any format created specifically for the home video market '' . In 1983 , Olivia Newton-John was presented the award for Olivia Physical . Beginning with the 1984 Grammy Awards , the Video of the Year award category was replaced with the categories Best Video , Short Form and Best Video Album ( now known as Best Music Video and Best Music Film , respectively ) .

Among the nominees for Best Supporting Actor were 8 year-old Justin Henry -- the youngest Best Supporting Actor nominee ever -- and 79-year-old Melvyn Douglas . This was the largest age difference between two competing actors in Oscar history until 2013 . Ironically , their age difference was partially the reason why Douglas did not attend the Oscars that night , despite winning the award . Henry was nominated for Kramer vs. Kramer , which out of its eight other nominations , finished with five awards , including Best Picture , Best Director for Robert Benton , and Best Actor for Dustin Hoffman .


query: Robert Browning worked as a poet.

pos: Robert Browning Robert Browning ( 7 May 1812 -- 12 December 1889 ) was an English poet and playwright whose mastery of the dramatic monologue made him one of the foremost Victorian poets . His poems are known for their irony , characterization , dark humour , social commentary , historical settings , and challenging vocabulary and syntax .   Browning 's early career began promisingly , but was not a success . The long poem Pauline brought him to the attention of Dante Gabriel Rossetti , and was followed by Paracelsus , which was praised by William Wordsworth and Charles Dickens , but in 1840 the difficult Sordello , which was seen as wilfully obscure , brought his poetry into disrepute . His reputation took more than a decade to recover , during which time he moved away from the Shelleyan forms of his early period and developed a more personal style .   In 1846 Browning married the older poet Elizabeth Barrett , who at the time was considerably better known than himself . So started one of history 's most famous literary marriages . They went to live in Italy , a country he called `` my university '' , and which features frequently in his work . By the time of her death in 1861 , he had published the crucial collection Men and Women . The collection Dramatis Personae and the book-length epic poem The Ring and the Book followed , and made him a leading British poet . He continued to write prolifically , but his reputation today rests largely on the poetry he wrote in this middle period .   When Browning died in 1889 , he was regarded as a sage and philosopher-poet who through his writing had made contributions to Victorian social and political discourse -- as in the poem Caliban upon Setebos , which some critics have seen as a comment on the theory of evolution , which had recently been put forward by Darwin and others . Unusually for a poet , societies for the study of his work were founded while he was still alive . Such Browning Societies remained common in Britain and the United States until the early 20th century .   Browning 's admirers have tended to temper their praise with reservations about the length and difficulty of his most ambitious poems , particularly The Ring and the Book . Nevertheless , they have included such eminent writers as Henry James , Oscar Wilde , George Bernard Shaw , G. K. Chesterton , Ezra Pound , Jorge Luis Borges , and Vladimir Nabokov . Among living writers , Stephen King 's The Dark Tower series and A.S. Byatt 's Possession refer directly to Browning 's work .   Today Browning 's critically most esteemed poems include the monologues Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came , Fra Lippo Lippi , Andrea Del Sarto , and My Last Duchess . His most popular poems include Porphyria 's Lover , How They Brought the Good News from Ghent to Aix , the diptych Meeting at Night , the patriotic Home Thoughts from Abroad , and the children 's poem The Pied Piper of Hamelin . His abortive dinner-party recital of How They Brought The Good News was recorded on an Edison wax cylinder , and is believed to be the oldest surviving recording made in the United Kingdom of a notable person .

neg: Armstrong Browning Library The Armstrong Browning Library is located on the campus of Baylor University in Waco , Texas , USA and is the home of the largest collections of English poets Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning . Additionally it is thought to house the largest collection of secular stained glass in the world .

neg: Count Gismond `` Count Gismond '' is a poem by Robert Browning , frequently anthologised as an example of the dramatic monologue . It first appeared in 1842 in Browning 's Dramatic Lyrics .   The poem is written in 21 verses .   `` Count Gismond : Aix in Provence '' may , on one reading , be seen as a story of the vindication of innocence . A woman relates to a friend an episode of her own life , when a defender arose for her when she was caught in the toils woven by the unsuspected envy and hypocrisy of her cousins and Count Gauthier , who attempt to bring dishonor upon her on her birthday , with an accusation that she and Gauthier had been lovers . Her faith that the trial by combat between Gauthier and Gismond must end in Gismond 's victory and her vindication reflects , in this reading , the medieval atmosphere of an idealised chivalrous France .   However an alternative reading of the poem , suggested by various hints in the verse ( e.g. the absence of the narrator 's denial of her relationship with Gauthier , the evasive way she breaks off her story when Gismond arrives ) , hints that the woman may be an ` unreliable narrator ' , as in the poem ` My Last Duchess ' .   On a third interpretation , the ambiguity between these two readings is the poem 's major attribute .

neg: Browning Society Browning societies were groups of people who met regularly to discuss the works of Robert Browning . Emerging from various reading groups , the societies were an indication of the poet 's fame and , unusually , were actively forming during his lifetime . Browning was not consulted on the foundation of these societies in appreciation of his work , and the idea did not meet with his immediate approval .

neg: Robert Burns (theologian) Robert Burns ( 1789 -- 1869 ) was a Scottish theological writer and church leader .

neg: Jocoseria Jocoseria is a collection of short poems by Robert Browning , first published in 1883 . Effectively a continuation of the Dramatic Idyls series , the book was not well received by critics at the time and has continued to be considered one of the poet 's least effective collections , aside from the famous prologue to the collection .   The prologue , which has no official title but is usually referred to by its first line , `` Wanting is -- what ? '' , became one of Browning 's favourite short lyrics and is a standard fixture in anthologies . Jocoseria -- whose title comes from a 1598 collection of jokes and anecdotes , referring to its jocose and serious contents -- was released in late 1883 , and enjoyed decent sales despite the lack of critical plaudits , to such an extent that Browning 's already-completed follow-up Ferishtah 's Fancies was delayed for nearly a year so as not to crowd it out of the shops .

neg: Ode to a Nightingale `` Ode to a Nightingale '' is a poem by John Keats written either in the garden of the Spaniards Inn , Hampstead , London or , according to Keats ' friend Charles Armitage Brown , under a plum tree in the garden of Keats ' house at Wentworth Place , also in Hampstead . According to Brown , a nightingale had built its nest near the house Keats and Brown shared in the spring of 1819 . Inspired by the bird 's song , Keats composed the poem in one day . It soon became one of his 1819 odes and was first published in Annals of the Fine Arts the following July . The poem is one of the most frequently anthologized in the English language .   `` Ode to a Nightingale '' is a personal poem that describes Keats 's journey into the state of negative capability . The tone of the poem rejects the optimistic pursuit of pleasure found within Keats 's earlier poems and , rather , explores the themes of nature , transience and mortality , the latter being particularly personal to Keats .   The nightingale described within the poem experiences a type of death but does not actually die . Instead , the songbird is capable of living through its song , which is a fate that humans can not expect . The poem ends with an acceptance that pleasure can not last and that death is an inevitable part of life . In the poem , Keats imagines the loss of the physical world and sees himself dead -- as a `` sod '' over which the nightingale sings . The contrast between the immortal nightingale and mortal man sitting in his garden , is made all the more acute by an effort of the imagination . The presence of weather is noticeable in the poem , as spring came early in 1819 , bringing nightingales all over the heath .

neg: A Toccata of Galuppi's `` A Toccata of Galuppi 's '' is a poem by Robert Browning , originally published in the 1855 collection Men and Women . The title refers to the fact that the speaker is either playing or listening to a toccata by the 18th-century Venetian composer Baldassare Galuppi . The poem consists of fifteen rhymed tercets ; its prevailing meter is trochaic octameter catalectic .

neg: Strange fits of passion have I known `` Strange fits of passion have I known '' is a seven-stanza poem ballad by the English Romantic poet William Wordsworth . Composed during a sojourn in Germany in 1798 , the poem was first published in the second edition of Lyrical Ballads ( 1800 ) . The poem describes the poet 's trip to his beloved Lucy 's cottage , and his thoughts on the way . Each of its seven stanzas is four lines long and has a rhyming scheme of a-b-a-b . The poem is written in iambic tetrameter and iambic trimeter .   In the poem , the speaker narrates a nighttime ride to the cottage of his beloved Lucy , who always looks as `` fresh as a rose in June '' . The speaker begins by saying that he has experienced `` strange fits of passion '' and will recount them only to another lover ( `` in the Lover 's ear alone , / What once to me befell . '' ) . In the five following stanzas , he recounts how he wended his way on horseback `` beneath an evening-moon '' . He crossed a lea , passed through an orchard , and began to climb a hill , atop which was Lucy 's cottage . As he `` came near , and nearer still '' to `` Lucy 's cot '' , the sinking moon appeared to follow suit . As he closely approaches the cottage , the moon vanishes from sight behind the roof . A morbid thought rises unbidden to the speaker 's mind : `` O mercy ! '' he thinks . `` If Lucy should be dead ! ''   `` Strange fits of passion have I known '' is simple in form but complex in content . The dramatic first stanza ( the speaker `` will dare to tell '' of his `` strange fits of passion , '' but `` in the Lover 's ear alone '' ) quickly captivates the reader . Wordsworth then creates tension by juxtaposing the sinking moon and the approaching rider , the familiar landscape with the speaker 's strange , dreamy feelings .   It is uncertain whether the Lucy of the poem was based on a historical person or was a creation of Wordsworth 's fertile imagination . If she is real , her surname and identity are unknown , though they have been the subject of much `` diligent speculation '' in literary circles . `` The one certainty is that she is not the girl of Wordsworth 's Lucy Gray . ''   An earlier version of this poem ended with an extra verse :   I told her this : her laughter light  Is ringing in my ears :  And when I think upon that night  My eyes are dim with tears .

neg: Makar A makar ( -LSB- pronaudio = Makar.oggˈmækər -RSB- ) is a term from Scottish literature for a poet or bard , often thought of as a royal court poet .   In literary history , the term The Makars is specifically used to refer to a number of poets of fifteenth and sixteenth century Scotland , in particular Robert Henryson , William Dunbar and Gavin Douglas , who wrote a diverse genre of works in Middle Scots in the period of the Northern Renaissance .   The Makars have often been referred to by literary critics as Scots Chaucerians . In the more general application of the term which is current today the word can be applied to poets of the Scots revival in the 18th century , such as Allan Ramsay and Robert Fergusson .   Since 2002 , the term `` makar '' has been revived as the name for a publicly funded poet , first in Edinburgh , followed by Glasgow , Stirling and Dundee , and in 2004 the position of The Scots Makar , in the sense of a Scottish poet laureate , was introduced by the Scottish Parliament .

neg: Madrigal (poetry) Madrigal ( madrigale ) is the name of a form of poetry , the exact nature of which has never been decided in English .   The definition given in the New English Dictionary , `` a short lyrical poem of amatory character , '' offers no distinctive formula ; some madrigals are long , and many have nothing whatever to do with love . The most important English collection of madrigals , not set to music , was published by William Drummond of Hawthornden ( 1585 -- 1649 ) in his Poems of 1616 . Perhaps the best way of ascertaining what was looked upon in the 17th century as a madrigal is to quote one of Drummond 's :  The beauty and the life Of life 's and beauty 's fairest paragon , O tears ! O grief ! hung at a feeble thread , To which pale Atropos had set her knife ; The soul with many a groan Had left each outward part , And now did take his last leave of the heart ; Nought else did want , save death , even to be dead ; When the afflicted band about her bed , Seeing so fair him come in lips , cheeks , eyes , Cried ah ! and can death enter Paradise ?  This may be taken as a type of Drummond 's madrigals , of which he has left us about eighty . They are serious , brief , irregular lyrics , in which neither the amatory nor the complimentary tone is by any means obligatory . Some of these pieces contain as few as six lines , one as many as fourteen , but they average from nine to eleven . In the majority of examples the little poem opens with a line of six syllables , and no line extends beyond ten syllables . The madrigal appears to be a short canzone of the Tuscan type , but less rigidly constructed . In French the madrigal has not this Italian character . It is simply a short piece of verse , ingenious in its turn and of a gallant tendency . The idea of compliment is essential . J. F. Guichard ( 1730 -- 1811 ) writes : `` Orgon , poke marital , A Venus compare sa femme ; C'est pour la belle un madrigal , C'est pour Venus une epigramme . ''   This quatrain emphasizes the fact that in French a madrigal is a trifling piece of erotic compliment , neatly turned but not seriously meant . The credit of inventing the old French verse form of madrigal belongs to Clément Marot , and one of his may be quoted in contrast to that of Drummond :  Un doux nenni avec un doux sourire Est tant honneste , it le vous faut apprendre ; Quant est de oui , si veniez a le dire , D'avoir trop dit je voudrois vous reprendre ; Non que je sois ennuye d'entreprendre D'avoir le fruit dont le desir me point ; Mais je voudrois qu'en ne le laissant prendre , Vous me disiez : vous ne l'aurez point .  In English , when the word first occurred -- it has not been traced farther back than 1588 ( in the preface to Nicholas Yonge 's Musica transalpina ) -- it was identified with the chief form of secular vocal music in the 16th century . In 1741 , John Immyns ( 1700 -- 1764 ) founded the Madrigal Society , which met in an ale-house in Bride Lane , Fleet Street ; this association still exists , and is the oldest musical society in Europe .   The word `` madrigal '' is frequently also used to designate a sentimental or trifling expression in a half-contemptuous sense .

Ceiriog was born at Penybryn farm overlooking the village of Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceiriog , in the Ceiriog Valley , which was then in Denbighshire but today is part of Wrexham County Borough , in north-east Wales . His mother Phoebe was a midwife and an expert on herbal medicine . He was one of eight children , and his mother spoiled him as her favourite son . His first attempts at poetry were as a pupil at Nant y Glôg School after his father gave him a book on Welsh grammar , including a section on cynghanedd . At 18 he left the village to live in Manchester . He worked as a grocer there and opened his own shop in 1854 . He met William Williams ( Creuddynfab ) , who was a station master in the Pennines , who befriended him and gave him a job on the railway . He was a great influence on the young poet . Williams had been appointed as the first secretary of the National Eisteddfod Society . Hughes decided to sell his shop and concentrate on writing poetry . This change led him to start to drink heavily . He returned to Wales in 1865 after being appointed as station master at Llanidloes . He was employed as a station master and Manager of the Van Railway at Caersws railway station from 1868 until his death in poverty in 1887 at age 54 , having continued to drink heavily .

neg: Confessional poetry Confessional poetry or Confessionalism is a style of poetry that emerged in the United States during the 1950s . It has been described as poetry `` of the personal '' , focusing on extreme moments of individual experience , the psyche , and personal trauma , including previously and occasionally still taboo matters such as mental illness , sexuality , and suicide , often set in relation to broader social themes . It is sometimes also classified as Postmodernism .   The school of `` Confessional poetry '' was associated with several poets who redefined American poetry in the 1950s and 1960s , including Robert Lowell , Sylvia Plath , John Berryman , Anne Sexton , Allen Ginsberg , and W. D. Snodgrass .

neg: Porphyria's Lover `` Porphyria 's Lover '' is a poem by Robert Browning which was first published as `` Porphyria '' in the January 1836 issue of Monthly Repository . Browning later republished it in Dramatic Lyrics ( 1842 ) paired with `` Johannes Agricola in Meditation '' under the title `` Madhouse Cells '' . The poem did not receive its definitive title until 1863 .   `` Porphyria 's Lover '' is Browning 's first ever short dramatic monologue , and also the first of his poems to examine abnormal psychology . Although its initial publication passed nearly unnoticed and it received little critical attention in the nineteenth century , the poem is now heavily anthologised and much studied .   In the poem , a man strangles his lover -- Porphyria -- with her hair ; '' ... and all her hair / In one long yellow string I wound / Three times her little throat around , / And strangled her . '' Porphyria 's lover then talks of the corpse 's blue eyes , golden hair , and describes the feeling of perfect happiness the murder gives him . Although he winds her hair around her throat 3 times to throttle her , the woman never cries out . The poem uses a somewhat unusual rhyme scheme : A , B , A , B , B , the final repetition bringing each stanza to a heavy rest .   A possible source for the poem is John Wilson 's `` Extracts from Gosschen 's Diary '' , a lurid account of a murder published in Blackwood 's Magazine in 1818 . Browning 's friend and fellow poet Bryan Procter acknowledged basing his 1820 `` Marcian Colonna '' on this source , but added a new detail ; after the murder , the killer sits up all night with his victim .

Poets House also curates and presents hundreds of readings , lectures , panels , symposiums and performances each year .   In 1996 , the literary newspaper Poetry Flash called Poets House `` The House That Holds A Country , '' a reference to its dedication to being a caretaker of the nation 's poetic heritage .   In 2005 , it was among 406 New York City arts and social service institutions to receive part of a $ 20 million grant from the Carnegie Corporation , which was made possible through a donation by New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg .   In 2009 , Poets House moved from its longstanding location in SoHo to an eco-friendly `` green '' building at Ten River Terrace in Lower Manhattan 's Battery Park City .

neg: POETICS list The University of Buffalo POETICS listserv ( informally and variously known as UBPOETICS or the POETICS list ) is one of the oldest and most widely known mailing lists devoted to the discussion of contemporary North American poetry and poetics . It began on 8 December 1993 , although the most easily accessible archive only contains messages from after the middle of 1994 . A number of influential poets and critics associated with various movements in contemporary poetry , including Marjorie Perloff and Charles Bernstein , are list subscribers . Estimates of list membership numbers vary , but are around 1800 readers .   It is run on servers owned by University at Buffalo , and is associated with that school 's graduate program in poetics . It is a closed list with submitted postings selected by the administrator and editor Amy King . The list has undergone numerous controversies over the years ; in 1999 , Bernstein briefly shut down the list allegedly in response to a large number of postings by one subscriber , Henry Gould , who denies his postings as the cause . The list later reopened . Currently the list provides for a mild amount of moderation by the list owners , with most messages `` pre-approved '' ; the new list rules also state that :   `` We generally do not accept postings of creative work not directed toward a discussion of poetics issues on the list . The Poetics List is not a venue for the posting of free-standing , personal poems or journal entries . However , the Poetics List editor may occasionally solicit or approve poems for posting on the list . ''   In the early days of the list , membership , list discussions and even the existence of the list itself were kept private , and members were required not to discuss the contents of list postings or the list itself with `` outsiders . '' People who wished to join the list were asked to provide a short `` personal statement '' before being approved . `` Real names '' were also required . These requirements have been relaxed in recent years , although some remain technically in force .   In 2001 the list served as the main forum for a protest against the appointment of Billy Collins as Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress . Members of the list participated in the election of an anti-laureate run by Robert Archambeau . Anselm Hollo was elected to this honorary position

neg: Jodi (art collective) Jodi , or www.jodi.org , is a collective of two internet artists : Joan Heemskerk ( born 1968 in Kaatsheuvel , the Netherlands ) and Dirk Paesmans ( born 1965 in Brussels , Belgium ) . Their background is in photography and video art ; since the mid-1990s they started to create original artworks for the World Wide Web . A few years later , they also turned to software art and artistic computer game modification . Their most well-known art piece is their website www.jodi.org , which is a landscape of intricate designs made in basic HTML .   In 1999 they began the practice of modifying old video games such as Wolfenstein 3D to create art mods like SOD . Their efforts were celebrated in the 1999 Webby Awards where they took top prize in the category of `` net art '' . Jodi used their 5-word acceptance speech ( a Webby Award tradition ) to criticize the event with the words `` Ugly commercial sons of bitches . '' Further video game modifications soon followed for Quake , Jet Set Willy , and the latest , Max Payne 2 ( 2006 ) to create a new set of art games . Jodi 's approach to game modification is comparable in many ways to deconstructivism in architecture , because they would disassemble the game to its basic parts , and reassemble it in ways that do not make intuitive sense . One of their more well-known modifications of Quake places the player inside a closed cube with swirling black-and-white patterns on each side . The pattern is the result of a glitch in the game engine discovered by the artists , presumably , through trial and error ; it is generated live as the Quake engine tries , and fails , to visualize the interior of a cube with black-and-white checkered wallpaper .   Since 2002 , they have been in what has been called their `` Screen Grab '' period , making video works by recording the computer monitor 's output while working , playing video games , or coding . Jodi 's `` Screen Grab '' period began with the four-screen video installation My % Desktop ( 2002 ) , which premiered at the Plugin Media Lab in Basel . The piece appeared to depict mammoth Mac OS 9 computers running amok : opening windows cascaded across the screen , error messages squawked , and files replicated themselves endlessly . But this was not a computer gone haywire , but a computer user gone haywire . To make this video , Jodi simply pointed-and-clicked and dragged-and-dropped so frantically , it seemed that no human could be in control of such chaos . As graphics exploded across the screen , the viewer gradually realized that what had initially appeared to be a computer glitch was really the work of an irrational , playful , or crazed human .   `` JODI 's work underlines the innate anarchy of the online medium , an arena that we 've come to recognize as public but one that the duo constantly undermines and tweaks to their own purposes .
