Satellites for distress alerting and locating: Report by Interagency Committee for Search and Rescue Ad Hoc Working Group
The background behind the congressional legislation that led to the requirement for the Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) and the Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) to be installed on certain types of aircraft and inspected marine vessels respectively is discussed. The DAL problem is discussed for existing ELT and EPIRB equipped aircraft and ships. It is recognized that the DAL requirement for CONUS and Alaska and the maritime regions are not identical. In order to address the serious DAL problem which currently exists in CONUS and Alaska, a low orbiting satellite system evolves as the most viable and cost effective alternative that satisfies the overall SAR system design requirements. A satellite system designed to meet the needs of the maritime regions could be either low orbiting or geostationary. The conclusions drawn from this report support the recommendation to proceed with the implementation of a SAR orbiting satellite system

Volume Comparison for Hypersurfaces in Lorentzian Manifolds and Singularity Theorems
We develop area and volume comparison theorems for the evolution of
spacelike, acausal, causally complete hypersurfaces in Lorentzian manifolds,
where one has a lower bound on the Ricci tensor along timelike curves, and an
upper bound on the mean curvature of the hypersurface. Using these results, we
give a new proof of Hawking's singularity theorem.Comment: 15 pages, LaTe
