The projection of the line segment joining the points (1, –1, 3) and (2, –4, 11) on the line joining the points (–1, 2, 3) and (3, –2, 10) is ____________.

If the foot of the perpendicular drawn from the point (1, 0, 3) on a line passing through ($$\alpha $$, 7, 1) is $$\left( {{5 \over 3},{7 \over 3},{{17} \over 3}} \right)$$, then $$\alpha $$ is equal to______.
