11. terrace : 테라스

• One particular table on the second floor boasts a spectacular view of the terrace as well as Seoul's squat skyline through the six-meter tall facade of glass.

• Lara showered and changed and had breakfast alone on the terrace of the penthouse, a breakfast of grapefruit, cereal, and green tea.

12. extraterrestrial : 지구 밖의 / 외계의

• The existence of extraterrestrial intelligence(외계의 생명체) is surmised to be connected with the presence of water in any corner of the ever-expanding pulsating universe, which runs towards an unknown destination and the boundaries of which touch the contour of infinity. Is there any water, in any of its physical states, in any planet out of billions of heavenly bodies of the universe except Earth?
• Clearly, the most compelling of her works is the ``Zero Gravity'' series that comprise of enigmatic dots seemingly floating about a surface of monochrome ultramarine. The dots are raised from the canvas, given form and texture so that they appear to be asteroid fragments or other extraterrestrial flotsam drifting in void of space.
• Bright, extraterrestrial images(이지적 이미지) produced through the print art medium by Lee Sung-Ja, the fourth senior artist to exhibit through invitation by the Seoul Arts Center, are now on show at its exhibition hall.

13. the Extra-Terrestrial :외계인/ E.T.(이티)

• Although he was just a loveable creature in a 1982 Hollywood blockbuster, E.T. the extra-terrestrial gave a less threatening face to creatures from outer space. Nearly 20 years after he hit the big screen, scientists have still not found any real-life equivalent but they believe conditions exist on other planets to support life.

유니버설영화사 필름 유산의 기념비적인 작품 ‘E.T.’가 탄생 20주년을 기념하기 위해 3월 전세계적으로 재개봉한다. 이번에 재개봉되는 ‘E.T.’는 현대 첨단 컴퓨터 그래픽 기술의 지원에 힘입어 당시에는 볼 수 없었던 새로운 장면을 재생 하였음은 물론 아카데미를 수상한 존 윌리엄스 주제음악을 디지털 재생하여 생생함을 더했다. 지난해 11월부터 ‘E.T.’20주년 기념행사를 시작했던 유니버설사는 새로운 로고를 발표했다. 그 유명한 장면인 인간 친구인 엘리어트와 E.T.가 함께 자전거를 타고 날아 오르는 장면을 유니버설사의 고고인 지구본 위에다 가로지르게 한 것이다. 이 로고는 금년 개봉되는 모든 영화의 유니버설 로고로 사용되게 된다. 멜리사 메디슨이 각본을 맡았고 스티븐 스필버그가 감독과 제작을 맡았던 ‘E.T.’는 지구에 잘못 떨어져 미아가 되어버린 외계에서 온 현명하고 자애로운 외계인과 외로운 꼬마소년 사이에 발전되는 특별한 우정을 그린 스릴이 넘치는 감동적인 작품이었다.

14. topography [topos < place + -graphy < study of drawing] : 지형학

• Network topology, users and software are constantly changing. There is no way to keep up.

15. Utopia [u-, not + topos < place + -ia : suffix] :
① an imaginary island, represented by Sir Thomas More, in a work called Utopia , as enjoying the greatest perfection in politics, laws, and the like 
② hence, any place or state of ideal perfection

• "Utopia" is a Greek-based noun: u (not) + topos (place) + ia (presumably, noun ending stem). The Greek stem "topos", meaning "to put" or "place", is the root of the contemporary English words "topology", "topography", and "isotope". Therefore, pia is not a separate and proper stem at all, and the word should be pronounced "u-top-ia". The meaning "nonexistent place" has evolved to denote a perfect place. "Utopia" was actually coined by Sir Thomas More (in his book Utopia) and subsequently became widely used.

16. isotope [iso-, same, equal + topos, place : at the same place(同位)] : any of two or more atoms that have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons, or that have the same atomic number but different atomic weights/ 동위원소

• U235, U238, and U239 are three isotopes.

17. tectonics : the study of the earth's crustal structure and the forces that produce changes in it / 구조지질학

18. plate tectonics : the theory that the earth's surface consists of plates, or large crustal slabs, whose constant motion accounts for continental drift, mountain building, etc./판구조론

19. geoid [geo-, 지구의] : the earth viewed as hypothetical ellipsoid with  the surface represented as a mean sea level / 지오이드

20. geodesy : the branch of applied mathematics(응용수학) concerned with measuring, or determining the shape of, the earth or a large part of  its surface, or with locating exactly points on its surface / 지구과학

• An international group of scientists has pinpointed how many inches separate the Earth and its moon - 15 billion, give or take an inch. Determining the moon's distance to within 1 inch is an extraordinary accomplishment. These exquisite measurements -- a kind of scientific slam-dunk -- are being used to test Albert Einstein's theory of gravity. The international group of scientists is based at the Institute for Astronomical and Physical Geodesy in Munich, Germany.
• The Global Positioning System (GPS) will get a foretaste of the Y2K computer bug. GPS is a satellite-based navigation system administered by the U.S. military, primarily for naval and airborne navigation. Due to the way the system keeps time, the GPS system will have a date "rollover" on Aug. 22, 1999, much like the so-called millennium bug. Most modern GPS receivers have accounted for the rollover. But not all.  “Certainly, there are old receivers out there that are still in use,” says Richard Langley, professor of geodesy and precision navigation at the University of New Brunswick. The current GPS timekeeping system was inaugurated on Jan. 6, 1980. To keep time, the system uses a 10-digit binary number, which means that the system runs out of 10-digit numbers once every 1,024 weeks. That will occur on 12:01 a.m. GMT on Aug. 22.  As with the Y2K issue, 100 percent compliance is unlikely. What will happen with the remaining non-compliant receivers? If the time stamp is incorrect, the device could be looking for the satellite at its location back on Jan. 6, 1980.
