Hey all! Okay, so I made a table to create columns...only problem is that the stuff OUTSIDE the table got shifted to the right. As you can see:

A nearly-perfectly spherical gyroscope orbits in spacetime 400 miles above the Earth.  At the beginning of the mission, the gyroscope's spin axis points at IM Pegasi, a distant star (along the Z-axis).  After one year, theoretical calculations predict that the gyroscope's spin axis will turn in two directions:  42 milliarcseconds horizontally (towards the Y-axis) due to frame-dragging,and 6.6 arcseconds vertically (towards the X-axis) due to its orbit through

local curved spacetime, called the "geodetic effect".  <p>

Couple of things. The main problem is that you have what is called a "nesting error" of sorts.

After the listing of Deware you have this:
<table border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="10">

Take that out, it serves nothing.

Also you don't really need that tag after that long paragraph.

Are you wanting the listings to be under the paragraph? If so that is another issue.

Lastly, see the section:
Margin of error.......<0.5 milliarcsecond 

That less than sign is a reserved character for HTML. It will work in some browers but it is still a no no. Use "& l t ;" instead (with no spaces)

Later,
