D. students, over the course of several years. It was launched, after being postponed several times, on board a Dnepr on July 26, 2006. The launch was a failure.

Famous quotes containing the word sacred:
“Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“‘Tis chastity, my brother, chastity.
She that has that is clad in complete steel,
And like a quivered nymph with arrows keen
May trace huge forests and unharbored heaths,
Infamous hills and sandy perilous wilds,
Where, through the sacred rays of chastity,
No savage fierce, bandit, or mountaineer
Will dare to soil her virgin purity.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
“Such sacred Treasures are the Limbs of Boys
In which a Soul doth dwell:”
—Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
