Astrophysics Telescope for Large Area Spectroscopy Probe is a concept for a National Aeronautics and Space Administration probe-class space mission that will achieve ground-breaking science in the fields of galaxy evolution, cosmology, Milky Way, and the Solar System. It is the follow-up space mission to Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST), boosting its scientific return by obtaining deep 1–4 μm slit spectroscopy for ∼70% of all galaxies imaged by the ∼2 000 deg2 WFIRST High Latitude Survey at z > 0.5. Astrophysics Telescope for Large Area Spectroscopy will measure accurate and precise redshifts for ∼200 M galaxies out to z < 7, and deliver spectra that enable a wide range of diagnostic studies of the physical properties of galaxies over most of cosmic history. Astrophysics Telescope for Large Area Spectroscopy Probe and WFIRST together will produce a 3D map of the Universe over 2 000 deg2, the definitive data sets for studying galaxy evolution, probing dark matter, dark energy and modifications of General Relativity, and quantifying the 3D structure and stellar content of the Milky Way. Astrophysics Telescope for Large Area Spectroscopy Probe science spans four broad categories: (1) Revolutionising galaxy evolution studies by tracing the relation between galaxies and dark matter from galaxy groups to cosmic voids and filaments, from the epoch of reionisation through the peak era of galaxy assembly; (2) Opening a new window into the dark Universe by weighing the dark matter filaments using 3D weak lensing with spectroscopic redshifts, and obtaining definitive measurements of dark energy and modification of General Relativity using galaxy clustering; (3) Probing the Milky Way’s dust-enshrouded regions, reaching the far side of our Galaxy; and (4) Exploring the formation history of the outer Solar System by characterising Kuiper Belt Objects. Astrophysics Telescope for Large Area Spectroscopy Probe is a 1.5 m telescope with a field of view of 0.4 deg2, and uses digital micro-mirror devices as slit selectors. It has a spectroscopic resolution of R = 1 000, and a wavelength range of 1–4 μm. The lack of slit spectroscopy from space over a wide field of view is the obvious gap in current and planned future space missions; Astrophysics Telescope for Large Area Spectroscopy fills this big gap with an unprecedented spectroscopic capability based on digital micro-mirror devices (with an estimated spectroscopic multiplex factor greater than 5 000). Astrophysics Telescope for Large Area Spectroscopy is designed to fit within the National Aeronautics and Space Administration probe-class space mission cost envelope; it has a single instrument, a telescope aperture that allows for a lighter launch vehicle, and mature technology (we have identified a path for digital micro-mirror devices to reach Technology Readiness Level 6 within 2 yr). Astrophysics Telescope for Large Area Spectroscopy Probe will lead to transformative science over the entire range of astrophysics: from galaxy evolution to the dark Universe, from Solar System objects to the dusty regions of the Milky Way.

During the war a heavy demand was made on the supplies of aeronautical timber, and in order to allow of the use of smaller sized timber, it became necessary to permit the introduction of splices into aeronautical construction. We knew of no means to obtain accurate comparative data, and the purpose of the present inquiry (with which Captain K. Robertson was also associated) was that of finding a method of splicing timber beams which should prove to be the most effective for withstanding bending moment (as in aeroplane main plane spars) and which should at the same time be simple to produce and easy to inspect.
As a preliminary step we invited suggestions from aircraft constructors and others as to the forms of splices which, in their opinion, were likely to give the most useful results.

The SMAC cluster sample (Hudson et al. 1999), with a depth of ˜ 12000km s-1, has a bulk velocity of ˜ 600 km s-1, with respect to the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) frame. Other surveys (Willick 1999, hereafter LP10k; Lauer & Postman 1994, hereafter ACIF) have also yielded large bulk motions on similarly large scales. Taken at face value, these results appear to be in conflict with bulk flows expected from favoured cosmological models. However, at the same time, other surveys (notably Dale et al. 1999, hereafter SC) have found rather small bulk motions on large scales. We have measured bulk flows from the above mentioned surveys plus SNIa (Riess et al. 1995) in a consistent way. The results are given in Table 1. The measurement errors are due to peculiar velocity errors. Note that these are the errors typically quoted. Based on these errors alone, there appears to be conflict between some of the surveys (e.g. SC vs SMAC).
