  1. injun

    "Injun" is an offensive term used historically in various forms of English, particularly American English, to refer to Native Americans. The term was widely used in Western genre films and literature, but is now considered outdated and offensive. Some believe its origin comes from a slurred pronunciation of the word "Indian." Its use today is generally discouraged due to its derogatory and offensive implications.

  1. Injun

    The Injun program was a series of six satellites designed and built by researchers at the University of Iowa. They were intended to observe various radiation and magnetic phenomena in the ionosphere and beyond. The design specifics of the satellites had little in common, though all were solar-powered and the first five used magnetic stabilization to control spacecraft attitude. Instruments included particle detectors of varying types, magnetometers, and photometers for observing auroras. The last three satellites were launched as part of the Explorer program. In spite of various hardware difficulties and the loss of Injun 2 due to an upper stage failure, the program was generally successful. In particular they produced data on the radiation aftereffects of the Starfish Prime high-altitude nuclear test..
