Satellite Space-eye does not look like the
satellites of the 1980's. It has large wings that gather
solar power. The power is for the motor. It keeps the
satellite in the same place above the earth. All the big
farmers in the area have paid for the cost of Satellite
Space-eye.
Constanza is one of those farmers. His home
computer makes the connection with Satellite Space-
eye. He asks to see a picture of the field in the south-
west corner of his farm. The picture appears on a TV
screen. It is a picture of a green wheat field. Everything
looks fine, he then asks the computer to show the same
area, but in colours. .The colours show the different
temperatures in the field. He knows healthy wheat
plants will all be green. The TV screen blinks and a
beautiful picture appears. It has many shades of blue,
red, and green.
Constanza looks closely at the large red spot near
the middle of the wheat field. He knows that something
is wrong in the wheat field. The red colour means the
spot is warmer than its surroundings. It may be due to
lack of moisture or not enough nutrients in the soil.
Insects eating the wheat can also show a red spot.
Constanza tells the computer to tell him more
about the warm spot. The computer points out that the
problem is a shortage of nitrogen in the soil. He asks
the computer to predict the harvest if he adds the
fertilizer. He then tells the computer the current market
price for wheat. He also tells the price of the fertilizer.
He asks for a costing. He wants to know if it will give
him a profit to add the fertilizer. The computer gives
him the answer. Is it a science fiction? No, it is
happening now.

Text 3
Dear Rossa,
I am a guy, twenty-eight years old. I have a
problem with a girl friend. She is twenty five years old.
We have been dating each other for years, since we
were high school students. Now we have jobs. I feel
very sure that we love each other. Now it is time for me
to get married. Unfortunately, her parents never
approve of our relationship ever since the very first
time. My family, anyhow, does not really mind. At first
I thought my girl friend had the power to defend our
love. But then she surrendered. She loves, me and she
loves her family, too. On the one hand she said, "I'll be
happy if my family is happy." It means she had to get
approval from her parents.
For this^ I was shocked. My heart was broken.
She ended our relationship just at the time when I was
ready to marry her. When I was with her, we were very
happy. We had a lot in common and there were no
conflicts. The truth was, we separated only because of
her parents. They want her to marry her cousin, her
aunt's son (this is one of the traditions in the Karonese).
For the time being I am very upset. When I miss
her I call her. Then we can eat together, talk together
for hours. We act like elating because she loves me,
too. The real problem is, she cannot refuse what her
parents want.
So, should I forget my girl friend, the only one
that I truly love? Or else, should I just wait, and dream
that one day she will be back to me?
Rio N., Padang
Dear Rio,
You call her your girl friend, but she has chosen her
own way. For this reason Id, say that there is nothing
you can do except forget her and go on with your
normal life. Hopefully you can find another and live
happily forever.
Rossa
