NASA SCIence Files (tm) is a research-, inquiry-, and standards-based, integrated mathematics, science, and technology
series of 60-minute instructional distance learning (television and web-based) programs for students in grades 3-5.
Respondents who evaluated the programs in the 2002-2003 NASA SCIence Files (tm) series reported that (1) they used the
programs in the series; (2) the goals and objectives for the series were met; (3) the programs were aligned with the national
mathematics, science, and technology standards; (4) the program content was developmentally appropriate for grade level; and
(5) the programs in the series enhanced and enriched the teaching of mathematics, science, and technology.

Enter-net is an international network for the surveillance of human gastrointestinal infections, which monitors
salmonellosis and Verocytotoxin producing Escherichia coli (VTEC) O157, including their antimicrobial resistance. It
involves 19 European countries and is funded by the DG SANCO of the European Commission. The main objectives of
Enter-net are the harmonization of typing methods, the establishment of a regularly updated international database including
the antimicrobial susceptibility of the isolates, the recognition and investigation of outbreaks involving different countries. The
Istituto Superiore di Sanita (ISS, the Italian National Institute of Health) represents Italy in the network and coordinates a
national surveillance system (Enter-net Italia) that involves laboratories operating in the medical, veterinary and environmental
fields. Starting from 2001, Enter-net Italia activities are presented in an annual workshop held at ISS. This year the workshop
is structured as a meeting that, beside presenting Enter-net activities, will provide an updating on the pathogenesis, diagnosis
and epidemiology of enteric infections.

The Marshall Space Flight Center maintains an active history program to assure that the foundation of the Center’s history
is captured and preserved for current and future generations. As part of that overall effort, the Center began a project in 1987
to capture historical information and documentation on the Marshall Center’s roles regarding Space Shuttle and Space Station.
This document is MSFC Space Station Program Commonly Used Acronyms and Abbreviations Listing. It contains acronyms
and abbreviations used in Space Station documentation and in the Historian Annotated Bibliography of Space Station
Program. The information may be used by the researcher as a reference tool.
