noun.
1) a device used to send out information (see radio) usally an AM or FM broadcast transmitter, a waste of power, some AM stations use 40,000,000 watts, and your radio picks up like 0.0001 watts, pretty neat system, altough most radio systems consist of two or more transceivers that can send and recive radio waves without the need for a T/X switch.

Irregular scattered patches of relatively dense ionization that develop seasonally within the E region and that reflect and scatter frequencies up to 150 MHz. Note 1: The sporadic E is a regular daytime occurrence over the equatorial regions and is common in the temperate latitudes in late spring, early summer and, to a lesser degree, in early winter. Note 2: At high, i.e., polar, latitudes, sporadic E can accompany auroras and associated disturbed magnetic conditions. Note 3: The sporadic E can sometimes support reflections for distances up to 1000 miles or more at frequencies up to 150 MHz

Less then one year after man first walked on the moon Apollo 13 was simply a "routine" flight until a faulty thermostat caused an oxygen canister to explode, blowing an entire side of the spacecraft away, the ship eventally starts leaking oxygen and the crew (Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert, and Fred Haise) have to survive in the Lunar Module until they can safely make it back to earth. But they didn't get to play with moom rocks.

Rapid Eye Movement
a great rock band whos best records are probably "Out Of Time" "Document" and "Automatic For The People"
they sing about what rock 'n' roll was orginnally about, being against mainstream society, but some so-called rock music see punk-pop and MTV hs distorted what REM really is, listen to the lyrics on "Its The End Of The World As We Know It" and "Losing My Religion"
all in all a pretty good band, up there with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Led Zeppelin

Code Division Multiple Access
A spread spectrum approach for the digital transmission of data/voice over radio frequencies. Sound bits are digitized and the data is split into data packets that are encoded with unique identification tags. All of the data/voice is sent over a spread range of radio frequencies. The cell phone or data device receives all of the data packets but only re-assembles those packets with the correct code and transforms the broken-up bits of data into useful sound and data. This allows more traffic for a finite number of available frequencies than analog or the other digital standards.
