Toyota Turning Dreams into Reality with SkyDrive EV
How to bridge the gap between our dreams about flying cars and reality? Toyota seems to know how make it happen; moreover, they want the final product will be in time for the 2020 Olympics.
SkyDrive, that is claimed to be the world’s most compact flying car, is being developed by Cartivator, an ambitious Japanese startup. Toyota as well as Taizo Sun, the world-known Japanese web developer, is now making some investments (around 40 million yen) in the startup. The future flyer-EV is expected to work like a drone being capable of vertical landing and take-off. According to its crowdfunding page, the main aim is not only to build a flying EV by 2018, but also to have it commercialized for the next Olympics to light the Tokyo torch. The futuristic-looking SkyDrive is expected to measure 9.5-foot and will be capable to fly 33 feet above the ground boasting a top flight speed of approximately 62mph. Mass production is scheduled to start by 2030.


C. Donald Bateman, Honeywell
Honeywell engineer C. Donald Bateman invented the Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS) and the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (E-GPWS), technologies that help prevent Controlled Flight Into Terrain accidents (CFIT).
CFIT accidents have no mechanical malfunction as their cause. Instead, in these accidents, pilots have the aircraft in their own control when it is inadvertently flown into terrain or water. Bateman began his initial work on GPWS in the late 1960s. GPWS relied on altitude readings from the aircraft’s radio altimeter to determine if terrain threats were imminent, sounding alarms in the cockpit of they were. In 1974, the FAA mandated that all large jet aircraft have GPWS in stalled, and CFIT accidents dramatically reduced.
Bateman’s E-GPWS was introduced in 1996. In this system, a moving display in the cockpit provides the crew with a picture of all terrain in the vicinity surrounding the aircraft, including the highest and lowest points. When the system detects impending terrain, voice and audible warnings sound, in addition to visual alerts on the display itself. More advance notice is given to the crew about the impending terrain, allowing minutes to take corrective action rather than seconds.
Many other flight safety systems can be attributed to Bateman. He is responsible for a wind shear detection system, allowing pilots the time to take appropriate actions. This system was mandated by the FAA on all commercial aircraft by 1993. Bateman is working on improving his Runway Aural Awareness System to reduce the risk of runway incursions or overruns. Additional innovations involve heads up display systems, speed control/auto throttle systems, stall warning systems, angle of attack systems, automatic flight control system, weight and balance systems, radar and others.
Born in Canada, Bateman is a U.S. Citizen. Educated at the University of Saskatchewan, he has been with Honeywell and its predecessors since 1960. He continues to actively work within the aviation industry on a variety of flight safety systems. (Photo from White House ceremony courtesy of Ryan K.

Industry News & Updates
As the energy needs of the human civilization increases on a daily basis and fossil fuels continue to deplete at a rapid rate, humans are seeking to invest more money into renewable sources of energy than ever before. At the forefront of all of this is our sun, which offers a near limitless amount of energy. However, we are not very good at harnessing this energy with our current technology and we will require solar panels in space to capture a larger amount of the sun’s energy.
The Earth’s magnetosphere and atmosphere deflects a large portion of the solar energy it receives. This is beneficial as all that extra high-energy radiation would be detrimental to life on Earth. However, that also means the amount of energy we can harvest from the sun is much greater beyond the Earth’s atmosphere. Currently, the Earth receives more solar energy in an hour than humans consume in a year. Imagine how much more energy we would have if we captured even a fraction more of that output by sending solar panels out to space!
We would need to build devices in space that efficiently harness solar energy, convert it to electrical energy, and send it back to Earth. Sounds easy enough, doesn’t it? Currently, scientists hypothesize that microwave power transmission and laser power beaming are two types of technology that humans could develop in the reasonably near future to begin this process. However, any technology that will actually allow us to build space panels is very far away and a lot more research is needed before viable methods can be developed.
The process is not as simple and send up solar panels that are currently used by homeowners, businesses, and the government. These panels are not built to withstand the atmospheric pressure they will face when exiting the Earth’s atmosphere. In addition it is unclear how humans could potentially fix these solar panel satellites when inevitable repairs are required. For comparison, the International Space Station currently orbits at 400km above Earth’s surface while this proposed solar panel technology would be put nearly 90 times higher. Space-based robot repairmen are a possible solution
The idea is to put the hypothesized panels in geostationary orbit, which is about 35,000 kms above Earth’s surface, to capture energy before it reaches Earth’s atmosphere and has a chance to break down solar energy. Alternatively there are models to place such satellites on the surface of Mars or the Moon and then beam the energy back to Earth.
Currently, China and Japan are the actively pursuing space-based solar power to meet their rising energy needs. Both the countries hope to have working models of the technology within the next 50 years. The Japan Space Exploration Agency (JAXA) has successfully beamed 1.8 kW of energy 50m to a tiny receiver, showcasing that they have the basic technology to achieve their goals by 2050.
Fossil fuels are depleting and are estimated to completely disappear sometime during this century. In order to become a true space-faring civilization, we will need to harness the energy output of our star – the Sun. This has been the dream of science fiction writers for years and it will hopefully become a reality this century.
To set and maintain high industry standards in customer service and workmanship while providing the best quality, renewable solar energy solutions.


Nelson-Miller has obtained NADCAP approval for our anodizing process. Nadcap (National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program) is an industry-managed approach to conformity assessment of 'special processes' that brings together technical experts from prime contractors, suppliers and representatives from government to work together and establish requirements for approval of suppliers using a standardized approach. Unlike traditional third party programs, Nadcap approval is granted based upon industry consensus. Having Nadcap accreditation allows Nelson-Miller to supply anodized parts to organizations that demand the accreditation. More importantly, it offers Nelson tighter controls on our anodizing process to supply our customers with parts that will meet or exceed their specifications.
Anodizing is used to create an abrasion and chemical resistant coating for aluminum nameplates and panels. Anodic coatings are used to retard oxidation in aluminum by forcing the oxidation of the aluminum through electrolytic methods in conjunction with dyes.
Anodized aluminum parts are specified in many military, automotive, aircraft and appliance applications. Anodizing can be used to simulate various materials such as brass, copper and bronze at a fraction of the cost of those materials. The anodizing and printing processes allow exceptional sharpness and resolution of copy. Parts may be selectively dyed additional colors, permitting multiple colors to be used on the same part.
Certain anodized colors tend to fade in ultraviolet light, so care must be taken when selecting colors which will be exposed to direct sunlight. Matching custom colors is very difficult because the colors are dyed and not printed. Additional color matching tolerance must be allowed when a custom color is specified.
Anodized parts are often used in conjunction with other processes to create unique and lasting products such as etched nameplates, screen printed nameplates and lithographed nameplates.
Standard manufacturing procedures on nameplates and panels allow fully anodized parts to have un-anodized edges and holes. However, edges and holes can be anodized by fabricating the parts first, then anodizing. This manufacturing process is more expensive due to additional handling required.
Finishes on aluminum to be anodized are applied prior to anodizing. They include polished aluminum, satin brushed, and non-specular matte.
Anodized aluminum provides an excellent base for subsequent finishes and treatments, such as adhesives, paints and inks. Anodizing of aluminum offers a very attractive and long lasting product.

The assertion was supported by a space photo made presumably by a US or UK spy satellite at the moment of attack at 1:19:47 PM UTC on July 17, 2014.
The satellite image evidencing that Malaysian Boeing MH17 (top of picture) was shot down by a Ukrainian warplane (bottom left).
The picture, which clearly shows the launch from the left wing fighter exactly the cockpit, was attached to the e-mail. The landscape, weather, aircraft sizes on picture are fully consistent with the circumstances of the accident.
Ivan Andrievsky, the first Vice-President of the Russian Union of Engineers comments :
“Here is a space picture taken from a low orbit. According to the coordinates specified in the picture, we can assume that it was taken by a US or British spy satellite. We conducted a detailed analysis of the image and there was no sign of a fake here.”
On July 21 the head of Main Directorate for Operations of the HQ of Russia’s Armed Forces, Lieutenant-General Andrey Kartopolov stated that according to the data of objective control a Ukraine Air Force military jet SU-25 was detected moments before the downfall of Boeing.

Starship prototype 24 stacked on prime of Tremendous Heavy booster prototype 7 on the firm’s facility close to Brownsville, Texas on January 9, 2023.
WASHINGTON – SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell mentioned Wednesday the corporate plans to aim a serious Starship milestone this week.
SpaceX on Thursday will try a “static fireplace,” concurrently testing all 33 engines that sit on the base of Starship’s rocket booster. The corporate performed a take a look at firing of 14 of these engines in November, because it pushes to make an orbital launch try with a Starship prototype.

Starship is an almost 400-foot-tall rocket, designed to hold cargo and other people past Earth. It’s also essential to NASA’s plan to return astronauts to the moon, with SpaceX having received an almost $3 billion contract from the company in 2021.
Final month the corporate accomplished a “moist gown rehearsal,” with Starship prototype 24 stacked on Tremendous Heavy booster prototype 7, in the newest essential take a look at.

Whereas SpaceX had hoped to conduct the primary orbital Starship launch as early as summer time 2021, delays in progress and regulatory approval have pushed again that timeline. Talking to reporters on the convention, Shotwell on Wednesday mentioned there have been “no massive issues” that brought about these delays.
“There’s numerous little issues to get carried out, particularly as a result of we weren’t actually specializing in the orbital ship — we had been specializing in the manufacturing techniques that may construct the ship. We all know easy methods to get to orbit,” Shotwell mentioned.
Whereas the corporate has ramped up the tempo of its Falcon collection of rockets to a launch each 4 days, Shotwell famous that these present rockets cannot be produced at a each day price.
“Why cannot we construct a rocket day-after-day? That is what we’re specializing in with Starship, is attacking each a part of the manufacturing course of to have the ability to construct a lot of these machines,” Shotwell mentioned.
SpaceX is already signing offers to fly crews on Starship, together with three privately booked flights by rich people aiming to go to area and the moon. However Shotwell reiterated a earlier warning that CEO Elon Musk has given, noting that Starship must launch on “lots of of flights earlier than we fly folks.”
Requested about SpaceX’s plans to IPO its Starlink enterprise, Shotwell mentioned on Wednesday there’s “no replace.” Final yr, CNBC reported that CEO Elon Musk instructed staff that the corporate is not prone to take Starlink public till 2025 or later.


What is the New Remote ID Rule and Why do We Need It? — An Important Tool for the Advancement of Drone Technology.
In the near future, when millions of drones are buzzing in, around, and above the city, doing everything from carrying packages, conducting inspections of construction sites and rooftops, monitoring climate and live traffic conditions and more, it will be important to have regulations that ensure the safe and secure operation of traditional manned aircraft, as well as unmanned drones and UASs. One critical component of that safe operation will be the ability to quickly and reliably identify each and every aircraft and drone sharing the airspace.
To that end, the FAA recently published the final version of the new Remote ID rules and regulations, requiring that registered drones be able to broadcast important information during operation. The rules will affect both manufacturers and operators, and will, by design, make the presence and operation of drones more transparent for everyone.
What is Remote ID?
Remote ID is different from the current drone registration and labeling requirements that require operators to register their drones and mark all aircraft with the registration number.
Remote ID is the ability (soon the requirement) for drones and other UASs (Unmanned Aircraft System) in flight to broadcast (likely via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth) their flight and location information for identification from the ground.
The Remote ID broadcast will be receivable by most personal wireless devices within range of the drone. The broadcast will contain the UA ID (serial number of the device or session ID), flight information (e.g., latitude/longitude, altitude, and speed), location of the control station or takeoff location, time mark(s), and emergency status. The broadcast data will not include information on the pilot, or other registration data from the FAA database in order to protect the identity of the operator. That information will be limited to the FAA and made available to authorized law enforcement agencies when appropriate.
Why Do We Need Remote ID?
Remote ID is an important tool that helps the FAA, law enforcement, federal agencies, and the public identify critical information about the drone and its control station or take-off location.
Just as we require vehicles to be identifiable on the roads and waterways, so too must airborne vehicles have a way to transmit their data reliably for identification and classification.
When Do the Remote ID Rules Take Effect?
The FAA published the final version of the new rules and regulations for Remote Identification in the Federal Register on January 15, 2021. These rules go into effect April 21, 2021. The rules were originally slated to take effect March 16, but corrections made to the Federal Register on March 10 pushed the effective date back to April 21.
Manufacturers will have 18 months from the effective date to ensure that they are in compliance with the new regulations. Operators will receive an additional year (12 months) after that to meet the operational requirements and ensure that they are piloting a Standard ID Drone, one with a Remote ID broadcast module, or piloting within a FRIA.
How Do the Remote ID Rules work?
The remote ID rule will require that all unmanned aircraft requiring registration with the FAA be capable of broadcasting their information. Operators of UASs will have three (3) ways to meet the identification requirements.
(1) Standard Remote ID Drone Operation
The first is to operate a standard Remote ID drone. These are drones that have built-in remote broadcast ability, and broadcast directly from the drone/UAS. From takeoff to shut down, the drone broadcasts:
- UA ID
- Drone location and altitude
- Control station location and elevation
- Time mark
- Emergency status
(2) Drone with Remote ID Broadcast Module
The second is to operate a drone with a Remote ID broadcast module attached. The broadcast module is a separate device that may be attached onto a drone/UAS that does not have Remote ID capability built in. This module will allow operators to retrofit drones and UASs without built-in capability to comply with the new Remote ID rules.
Operators will be required to enter the broadcast module serial number into the registration record for the aircraft. Operators will also be limited to Visual Line-of-Sight (VLOS) when flying with a Remote ID broadcast module. From takeoff to shut down, the module broadcasts:
- UA ID
- Drone location and altitude
- Takeoff location and elevation
- Time mark
(3) Operation within FAA-Recognized Identification Area (FRIA)
Finally, pilots may operate a drone/UAS not equipped with Remote ID within certain designated areas recognized by the FAA.
Community-based organizations, primary and secondary education institutions, and other organizations recognized by the FAA may apply for the establishment of FRIAs. Drones operating within an FRIA are limited to Visual Line-of-Sight (VLOS) and must remain within the designated area.
Other specifics of the Remote ID rules include:
- UA Self Test (The drone cannot take off if Remote ID is not functioning)
- Remote ID cannot be disabled by the operator
- Remote ID must be sent over unlicensed radio frequency (e.g., Wi-Fi or Bluetooth)
- Standard Remote ID and the Remote ID Broadcast Modules must be designed by manufacturers to maximize the range at which the broadcasts can be received
The new Remote ID rules and regulations are an important step forward for the realization of a drone and air-mobility enabled society. Increasing airspace awareness is critical to a future where manned and unmanned aircraft will share the skies. These rules will also help continue to build public trust in drones and other emerging air-mobility technology.
Most importantly, it shows the potential for regulatory agencies, specialists, and manufacturers to come together to craft appropriate rules and regulations that ensure the safe and secure operation of drones without unnecessarily stifling the growing industry. The FAA first published the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on Remote ID on December 31, 2019. This allowed industry experts, professionals, and the public to comment on the specifics of the rule(s) during the 60-day comment period. The FAA received over 53,000 comments, and took a number of those into consideration for the final rule. This is a prime example of the type of collaboration that will continue to bear fruit as the drone industry reaches new heights in the very near future.

About 2 minutes before flight 1549 went into the Hudson, probably right about the time the birds hit the engine, I was above the Hudson, in a US Air plane, in an approach to LGA, taking the below shot of ground zero. We landed at LGA at almost the exact time flight 1549 went into the river. The airport was strangely calm and normal, despite the PA announcement that "all flights were grounded due to an incident at the airport" and the TVs in the bar in the terminal showing the breaking news. I got on a plane an hour later to head to Florida. It was oddly normal.


The Runway 9/27 Rehabilitation project involved removing deteriorated porous friction course and resurfacing the 7,603-foot runway with P-401 asphalt. The runway was grooved to increase runway friction and manage stormwater. The project included modifying the runway cross-slope, crack sealing, and installation of runway markings. To maintain commercial service operations, the project design included a series of displaced thresholds. Design of the project began in January 2010 with construction completion in October 2010. HLA assisted with AIP grant preparation; completed engineering design and contract documents; made presentations to airport board, tenants, and the community; and provided construction observation and management for this highly successful project.
This project received an award from the Federal Aviation Administration in 2010 for its excellence in the Airport Improvement Program.

“For the 2022 to 2023 ski season when I flew, JSX had partnered with Taos Air to offer round-trip flights between Taos, New Mexico, and four markets across California and Texas.”
“My flight was operated by JSX, a “hop-on” jet service that seats about 30 people per flight and comes with perks like short security lines and complimentary checked bags. It’s meant to feel like a luxurious, exclusive experience — and flights can start at less than $200 each way, depending on where you’re flying.”

Here in this article we will see 10 space movies best for you to watch. In this list we take all space movies best in the history for you with the IMDb Ratings. Space Movies are basically sci-fi movies but they are more interesting when any other genre is added up like thriller, drama or romance.
Some of the movies are so old but they have still a breath taking watching experience like Alien , 2001:A Space Odyssey . All these space movies are worth watching. If you are space lover then these are the must watch space movies best for you.
10 space movies best ever in history
10. Passengers
Passengers is an sci-fi romance movie starring Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt. Passengers movie is also a good example to all human beings to save our earth before it will be destroyed.
The story is interesting where a spacecraft was sending from the earth to a living colony in the space but Jim wake from a hypersleep during the voyage due to technical faults. He also wakes up a girl named Aurora and then how they save the lives of others humans by fighting a disaster during journey.
9. First Man
First Man, as the name suggest that the story revolves around the first man to reach somewhere. First Man is basically a story of Neil Armstrong, who is the first human being to go to moon and successfully lands there. This story is almost accurate to the real story but has some dramatic turns to make it interesting. Must watch this victory of human to the lunar missions ever in the history.
8. Apollo 13
Apollo 13 is also based on the storyline where the mission was aborted and the main motive is to come back home. Apollo 13, starring Tom Hanks is worth watching.
The story is about a lunar mission where the space craft explodes and the oxygen & electrical supply is decreasing every minute then NASA decides to abort the mission and try to save the members of the mission.
7. Gravity
Gravity is an sci-fi thriller movie which has a simple story but too much interesting to watch. Gravity movie deserves to be in this list in Top 5 but as the ratings it is on number 7. This movie is also inspired by the true story.
The story revolves around a space shuttle which is destroyed in the space and the crew members are stranded in the mid orbit in search of some help to go back home. How the story turns into a thriller experience is worth watching it.
6. Moon
Moon is an American sci-fi movie directed by the Duncan Jones as his Debut directional movie but even after that the direction of this movie is outstanding.
The story is quiet simple but interesting to see where an astronaut Sam bell leads a three years project on the moon but at the end of the project period he faces a crises on the moon. It is interesting to see that crises in the movie.
5. Arrival
Arrival is a 2015 science fiction drama movie based on the 1998 story by Ted Chiang “Story of your life”. Arrival starring Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner and Forest Whitaker.
The story is amazing where a unknown spaceship like structure came to earth and responds nothing for some time then a team was sent to take a quick check to this spaceship but they get some diagram showing some messages which are not readable by humans. Then how the scientist decode the messages and what happened after that is such an amazing experience to see.
4. ThE mArtian
The Martian is one of the most interesting movies of last decade. The story and the suspense makes it more interesting to its viewers. The Martian shows us the dedication of a human to survive, which tells us that we must not lose our hope to live more.
Basically the story starts when the crew of some astraunauts go to mars but due to a storm the whole crew died but only one member survived, then how he spend his time on mars without any food and any other resources and how he came back is such fascinating thing to see.
3.2001:A Space Odyssey
This movie is also one of the most old one in this list but had great experience even you watch it today. 2001: A Space Odyssey is inspired by the 1951’s short story “The Sentinel”.
The story is about a journey to the Jupiter planet with the help of Sentient computer HAL, where the crew found some alien monolith/evidences you can say and then a space fight happens there.
2. Alien
Alien was released 42 years ago, when the animation industry was not so good but even after that this movie gives you the thrill which is sufficient to get the best experience. Even it was too old but it is still in the list of Top 10 best ever Space Movies.
The story revolves around the alien which was found by crew of some astraunaut in space. When they get the trns mission from the alien ship they decides to enter the spaceship where they found so many eggs. Now, without any spoiler summary ends here.
Interstellar is one of the best ever space movies, because of its storyline and specially its breath taking music. As we all know Christopher Nolan is a genius director and knows everything about the audience that how to give the best experience with every shot.
The Storyline basically revolves around the astraunauts who go to the end of the galaxy to find a new home for humanity. This is our recommendation to all of you that, must watch this movie in your life.
Many of you also asked for which are best space movies on Netflix? on our Instagram page @thehubten but here we conclude all the space movies of the history. Comment down your favorite space movies best ever in the history.


The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) is a joint project of NASA and the German Aerospace Center (DLR) to construct, operate, and maintain an airborne observatory. NASA awarded the contract for the development of the aircraft, operation of the observatory and management of the American part of the project to the Universities Space Research Association (USRA) in 1996. The DSI (Deutsches SOFIA Institut) manages the German parts of the project which are primarily science and telescope related. SOFIA's telescope saw first light on May 26, 2010. SOFIA is the successor to the Kuiper Airborne Observatory.
What is SOFIA?
SOFIA is based on a Boeing 747SP wide-body aircraft modified to include a large door in the aft fuselage that can be opened in flight to allow a 2.5 meter diameter reflecting telescope access to the sky. This telescope is designed for infrared astronomy observations in the stratosphere at altitudes of about 41,000 feet (about 12 km). SOFIA's flight capability allows it to rise above almost all of the water vapor in the Earth's atmosphere which blocks infrared wavelengths. At the aircraft's cruising altitude, 85% of the full infrared range is be available. The aircraft can also travel to almost any point on the Earth's surface, allowing observation from the northern or southern hemispheres.
Operationally, the observatory flies three or four nights a week for the next 20 years. SOFIA is now based at NASA's Armstrong Aircraft Operations Facility at Palmdale, California, while staff at NASA Ames Research Center, in Mountain View, California, operate the SOFIA Science Center where astronomical observation missions are planned for the flying observatory. SOFIA is currently flying missions with hardware and software subsystems designed and built by STAR Fellows! Given the complexity of the central project, SOFIA's leaders really value STAR Fellows interested in participating for several years in a row.
Summer Research Opportunities
SOFIA will be offering several STAR Fellowships. Like other 'big science' projects, SOFIA is a collaborative effort between many researchers and engineers at several locations. Fellows must expect to work independently, but communicate effectively with a large research team on tight deadlines. Fellows must be highly motivated and fearless when tackling complex problems! Applicants may be asked to participate in multiple interviews. STAR placements on the SOFIA project may be located at NASA Ames in Mountain View, CA, at the Armstrong Flight Research Center near Palmdale, CA, or at the aircraft base (varies). Software development and mathematical backgrounds are in high demand, but the program also has need of Fellows with electrical or mechanical engineering skills. Research mentors are likely to provide a considerable amount of background reading before and during fellowships. If you are interested in a fellowship with the SOFIA project, please keep an eye on this page. We will post more information as it becomes available.
Where is SOFIA?
Please note. SOFIA projects take place at several research centers including NASA Armstrong, NASA Ames, and the current location of the aircraft. Your Research Mentor will identify the project site with you.


Air Transportation represents a very interesting example of a complex techno-social system whose importance has considerably grown in time and whose management requires a careful understanding of the subtle interplay between technological infrastructure and human behavior. Despite the competition with other transportation systems, a growth of air traffic is still foreseen in Europe for the next years. The increase of traffic load could bring the current Air Traffic Network above its capacity limits so that safety standards and performances might not be guaranteed anymore. Lacking the possibility of a direct investigation of this scenario, we resort to computer simulations in order to quantify the disruptive potential of an increase in traffic load. To this end we model the Air Transportation system as a complex dynamical network of flights controlled by humans who have to solve potentially dangerous conflicts by redirecting aircraft trajectories. The model is driven and validated through historical data of flight schedules in a European national airspace. While correctly reproducing actual statistics of the Air Transportation system, e.g., the distribution of delays, the model allows for theoretical predictions. Upon an increase of the traffic load injected in the system, the model predicts a transition from a phase in which all conflicts can be successfully resolved, to a phase in which many conflicts cannot be resolved anymore. We highlight how the current flight density of the Air Transportation system is well below the transition, provided that controllers make use of a special re-routing procedure. While the congestion transition displays a universal scaling behavior, its threshold depends on the conflict solving strategy adopted. Finally, the generality of the modeling scheme introduced makes it a flexible general tool to simulate and control Air Transportation systems in realistic and synthetic scenarios.


Airbus said Friday it’d successfully held the first test flights of the Vahana, a pilotless vehicle that it hopes will be capable to ferry people around cities. The Wednesday flight in a test range in the usa state of Oregon lasted just under one minute, with the aircraft raising up five metres from the ground and landing without control by an aviator, the European aerospace company said in a statement. Propelled by eight rotors which permit it to take off and land Vahana finished a second test flight on Thursday, and additional testing is slated, for example, forward flight.
The airplane, that Airbus has been developing for over 2 years, was designed to take one passenger and fly autonomously, according to its own site. Wahana seeks to democratise personal flight and answer the growing requirement for mobility by leveraging the most recent technology in electrical propulsion, energy storage, and machine vision, Airbus said in its statement. Autonomous driving technology has made considerable progress in latest years with high tech companies and automakers putting test cars on the roads, while a handful of inventors and start ups have developed flying automobiles.


The application of space technology in the monitoring of pigmented skin lesions will enable early detection of melanomas
Source: Space Ref, February 2022
The technology multinational GMV and the Biomedical Research Foundation of Madrid’s Hospital Universitario La Paz (FIBHULP) have launched the DALEM project, collaborating in the development and application of the transfer of space technology for the monitoring of pigmented skin lesions.
Opening up new markets for space technologies and increasing the return on investment in them is one of the objectives of the European Space Agency (ESA). To this end, it has recently opened new calls for proposals aimed at transferring space technologies to other sectors. One of these has taken the form of the DALEM project, in which the technology multinational GMV is collaborating with FIBHULP to improve early diagnosis of skin cancer.READ THE ORIGINAL FULL ARTICLE


Missouri understands that an educated and trained workforce is essential to success. As a result, Missouri offers traditional and non-traditional training options for workers and companies that allows employers to recruit a workforce that is customized to fit their needs.

The Chinese-made Zhurong rover for Mars exploration has successfully descended from the landing platform to the planet’s surface. This was announced on May 22, 2021 by the National Space Administration of the People’s Republic of China.
The Chinese rover has arrived at the Red Planet aboard the automatic station Tianwen-1. The successful descent of the landing platform to Mars took place shortly after. Since then, the command team from the mission control center in China has been running a series of operations to test the solar panels, antenna, and sensors. And now Zhurong successfully embarks on its scientific program.
The device is located on the Utopia Crater – a rounded lowland with a diameter of about 3300 km in the Eastern part of the Northern Hemisphere of Mars. The rover is equipped with cameras, a magnetic field detector, ground-penetrating radar, a surface compound detector, and a meteorological measurement instrument. The main research program is designed for three months. If the rover does not have any critical malfunctions, it will continue to function.
With the success of the Zhurong rover, China has become the second country after the United States, which has successfully delivered a rover to the surface of Mars. The rover will, among other things, look for signs of the existence of life in the past or present.
In addition to Zhurong, Mars has two active rovers – Curiosity and Perseverance – both of which are owned by the American NASA, which has landed 10 missions on the Red Planet so far.
On November 26, 2011, the US government sent to the Red Planet a 900 kg rover made by Boeing and Lockheed Martin on an Atlas V 541 rocket. He sat down in Gale Crater on August 5, 2012, and has traveled 23.83 km since then, having already sent about 750,000 photos and gigabytes of other scientific information. Curiosity was designed to spend 23 Earth months on Mars. However, it continues to operate until this day. By comparison, its predecessors, Spirit and Opportunity rovers, which were sent to Mars in 2004, stopped operating in 2010 and 2018 consequently because the severe Martian dust storms have blocked their solar panels.
At the beginning of 2021, Curiosity marked 3000 local days of successful work on Mars. He does not stop sending many photos from the Red Planet, which he takes with several cameras: front, back, side and others.
Now the rover continues to climb Mount Sharp, which it has been exploring since 2014.
American NASA’s Perseverance rover has landed on the Red Planet in February 2021. It became the fifth rover to successfully land on Mars since 1997, and its launch happened shortly after China’s Tianwen-1.
The rover is equipped with several sophisticated sensors and scientific instruments. Its primary mission is to look for signs of ancient microbial life on Mars. In April, for the first time in the history of space exploration, it flew a helicopter-drone in a world other than Earth.
Perseverance is the size of a vehicle. It weighs almost a ton and has 19 high-resolution cameras and two microphones that scientists will use to record sound on Mars.
Scientists also hope the rover, equipped with its own oxygen devices, will help pave the way for future manned missions.
The helicopter drone deserves special attention. It uses counter-rotating coaxial propellers with a diameter of just over 1 meter. It is equipped with a high-definition camera that will allow you to see everything from the “side” of this drone. A wireless transmitter is also installed inside that will transmit information to the rover. Well, he, in turn, will send all this to Earth. A camera with a solar tracker is used for navigation.
In the long term, Perseverance’s goal is to reach what scientists believe to be the delta of an ancient river, which was formed during the “wet period” of the history of Mars. There it will search for the remnants of ancient life on the Red Planet.


Aviation fans of all ages will enjoy a tour of this history-of-flight museum located at Boeing's headquarters in St. Louis. Eight decades of history are represented here, with everything from cloth models and bi-planes to spaceships on display. There are also scale models of the F-15 Eagle, Apache helicopters, military transports and the president's Air Force One. Additionally, there are life-size replicas of the Gemini and Mercury spacecraft that launched the U.S. space exploration program. Other historical exhibits represent the first around-the-world flight in 1924 and the first flight to the South Pole in 1956.

Life on Mars Space Astronaut Toy Set for Children
Usually ships in 3 - 5 business days.
Reach for the stars with our Life on Mars set. Your little astronauts will love the realistic space station with its communication towers, astronauts and UFOs. Helps to create interest for astrology and science, as well as endless fun and creative role play.
This unique toy set is meant for children ages 3 and up. Safety tested. Measures 17.52" x 17.20" x 7.28". Weighs 2.35 lbs. Click on images for greater detail.


So today at Kids Play we decided to take a trip into outer space (just a casual Monday afternoon stroll, as you do). We put on our Astronaut helmets and space suits – all specially designed by NASA (“Not. Actually. Space. Attire), got in our rocket ships, and blasted off!
But as any good astronaut will tell you, the first thing you have to do before any space mission, is warm up your vocal cords.
“Really?” I hear you say (I have excellent hearing), well the answer is “yes”. Before embarking upon your galaxy-gallivanting, you must do some exercises like “Lion face, lemon-face” (a favourite of Buzz Lightyear, apparently). A few extra-terrestrial tongue twisters later, and our space explorers were ready to go!
They say that in space no one can hear you scream…well let’s hope they’re wrong, because our astronauts sung a lovely song about flying to the moon which would have made the toughest of aliens weep with joy. They had some fancy actions to go along with the lyrics (of course we all had to put on our gravity-boots so our feet could actually touch the ground!) One of our little space invaders had a go at naming the all the planets, and told us all about the gas that helps the astronauts fly (draw your own conclusions folks).
Once we were deep in space, we encountered some aliens! They were extraordinary creatures: some were green, some were purple, some had 10 toes on each foot, and one was called “Allan”. We also met a little alien who had some self-esteem issues – he referred to himself as “the ugly wee green alien” – but we’re sure he’s beautiful on the inside.
After saying goodbye to our new planetary pals, we headed back to earth. It was great exploring amongst the stars, but I must say it was nice to come home. Even if it was raining. And cold. And windy. And I’ve ran out of chocolate…
On second thought: pass me my spacesuit.
I’m away to see Allan.

Homemade rockets took to the skies as Castle Manor Academy’s science team hosted two afternoons of rocket building with primary school youngsters recently.
Year four pupils from Place Farm, Burton End, Clements and St Felix primary schools took part in the event during National Science and Engineering Week.
Nearly 200 students designed, built and flew stomp rockets in and around the main hall at Castle Manor.
Made from pipe insulation and powered by a hefty stomp on a two litre drink bottle, the students were able to reach distances of almost 50 feet.
Team leader for science Gareth Marks said: “We have had some really exciting sessions with the pupils and seen some excellent thinking.
“We had fun and learnt a little about the scientific process too.
“We made our rockets out of scrap material and we think you can do the same too.
“Why not give it a go over Easter?”
Stomp rockets can be bought but all of the parts can usually be found around the home.
You will need:
– A two litre fizzy drink bottle
– A piece of foam pipe insulation about 20cm long
– An egg box
– A piece of plastic or rubber hose about 15mm in diameter and 60cm long
– Cardboard to use as fins and wings
First make a hole in the lid of the drinks bottle and push the rubber tube through the hole.
There needs to be a tight fit between the lid and the hose – a glue gun could be helpful here.
Seal one end of the pipe insulation with tape.
Add some fins and wings to your rocket.
The more aerodynamic your rocket the further it will fly.
To make the rocket fly screw the lid onto the bottle, push the rubber hose into the hole in the insulation.
Angle the rocket and then stomp onto the middle of the bottle.
The rocket should fly off.
Change your design to see if you can make the rocket fly further.
Add some wings to see if your rocket can glide.
Try and keep your rocket inside your garden.

sighted writes: "NASA reports that its Curiosity rover mission has found evidence that a stream once ran vigorously — and for a sustained amount of time — across the area on Mars where the rover is driving. There is, of course, earlier evidence for the presence of water on Mars, but NASA says this evidence, images of rocks containing ancient streambed gravels, is the first of its kind."

The idea of space travel is out of this world.
Millions are enthralled by it. Millions more want to travel to space, which could eventually happen. Granted, while space tourism companies aren’t ready to send folks into space just yet, the industry is seeing demand.
In fact, according to analysts at Cowen, “39% of people with a net worth of more than $5 million are interested in paying at least $250,000 for a flight.”
Better, by 2040, Morgan Stanley believes the industry could be worth about $1 trillion.
That is, if companies can get off the launch pad with paying customers.
- Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic wants to travel into space as early as this year and build a path for the first commercial space flights.
- Jeff Bezos recently stepped down from his role as Amazon CEO to devote more focus to his Blue Origin space venture and compete.
- Elon Musk founded SpaceX- a company focused on commercial space travel and even colonizing Mars of all places.


The lowest energy orbit for the flight from Earth to Jupiter is one with perihelion at Earth's orbital radius and aphelion at Jupiter's orbital radius. The orbit of the space probe was chosen to have an aphelion beyond Jupiter's orbit so that the velocity direction of the probe at rendezvous with Jupiter would have a better angle for gravity assist. The diagram to the right shows the derived parameters for the flight of the probe. The shape of the orbit and velocities were calculated using the relationships given below.
The Earth travels in its orbit at 29.8 km/s so the probe has to have an increase in velocity (called 'delta-v' ) of about 9.2 km/s to put the probe in the orbit necessary. The probe will intersect with Jupiter's orbit when it is about 160o around its orbit. At that time it will have slowed to a velocity of 9.36 km/s. The velocity will be angled outward by 36.8o (the component of the velocity perpendicular to the radius vector will be 7.49 km/s at that time). Jupiter will be moving at 13.07 km/s, and faster than the probe.
I have shown the calculations giving the numbers in the diagram. I leave that to the reader to check them from the above relationships.
The situation is now know for the rendezvous with Jupiter. The gravitational interaction of the probe with Jupiter must now be considered.

kamdenk 5pts The flying car is a reality. Terrafugia today said it had successfully flown its Transition Roadable Aircraft that can transform itself from car to plane version in less than 30 seconds.There have been successes that never began mass production, and miserable failures including a flying car that used the Ford Pinto. (That should have been the first clue it was headed for disaster.) Well, there is now a company called Terrafugia, and they have a roadable aircraft (that's the term) called the Transition. The Transition has folding wings, and can reach over 100 mph in the air, 60 mph on the ground, runs on gasoline and has a range of about 400 miles.

Air Force Cross
For extraordinary heroism in connection with military operations against an opposing armed force.
The Air Force Cross was established in 1960 to honor the heroism of the highest degree that did not merit the Medal of Honor. Previously airmen of the Army Air Corps were awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for such actions. The Air Force Cross became the unique award of the United States Air Force to replace the Army Award for members of their own branch of service. The Navy Cross (Navy, Marines & Coast Guard) and the Distinguished Service Cross (Army) all join the Air Force Cross as our Nation's second-highest military award.

It’s since the 2011, year when the Space Shuttle made its last flight, that the Soyuz russian pods are the only vehicle able to bring the astronauts on the international space station. By the way in the last months happened a serie of problems connected right to russian vehicles. Is for that was born the need to find alternative solutions for the spacial transport of people and come back to flight in the space with american vehicles?
The Soyuz vehicles
The Soyuz spaceships were developed by Sergej Pavlovic Korolev for the soviet space program. Their first flight without human crew dates back to 1966. The following year was the time of the first flight with human crew, which, anyway, saw the death of the astronaut Vladimir Komarov.
Since there the vehicles were used to transport astronauts and scientists onboard of the orbitant stations Saljut, Mir and of the international space station. Since the 2011 they are the only existent vehicles for the spacial transport of people towards the ISS.
In the month of September of the last year, 2018, one of the Soyuz ship was damaged by a micro meteor, while it was docked to the ISS, by leaving the astronuats without a vehicle to come back on the Earth. Just a month after, in October of the Ottobre 2018, another ship had some problems during the take off phase, by leaving again the crew of the ISS without a vehicle to come back on the planet.
Now, few months after those events, which is the future of the space transport?
The NASA and the russian space agency
The one that saw involved the russian space agency and the NASA was a cooperation forced by the need of a means of transport of which America, momentaneously, didn’t have.
But how is that possible? In a global scenario where the race to space is ever more present and advanced why for eight years the United States of America didn’t have its own spaceship?
The 21th of July 2011, after thirty years of activity, terminates the Space Shuttle age and the only vehicles in the world to bring the astronauts on the space remain the russian Soyuz. Ride, the one “provided” by the Russia to the America toward the ISS, costed 85 millions of dollars every astronaut.
Since there, are eight years that we are waiting to see the coming back of an american spaceship and, maybe, we arrived to the moment when we can declare the russian monopoly for the spacial transport of people closed.
The Crew Dragon of Space X
The 2nd of March of the 2019 was brilliantly made the test mission for the launch of a Crew Dragon, the spaceships for the spacial transport of SpaceX.
Like always, the tests proposed by Elon Musk are amazing and like always he brings a little piece of humanity onboard of his vehicles, as well as they are terrestrial or spacial. While Starman is still going around the solar system, onboard of the Crew Dragon there is a dummy inspired to the lieutenant Ripley of Alien. To bring in orbit the pod could only be a Falcon 9.
After the launch, brilliantly achieved, the pod spent some days docked to the station, and then it came back on the planet. The last 8th March, with a splashdown, organised by SpaceX, perfectly achieved, it came back on the Earth. Now it would be used for the spacial transport of the astronauts onboard of the ISS. Giving back so to the United States the capacity to bring by itself men on the space.
If all goes as it should until the end of the year the spaceship will bring the first astronauts on the station. Meanwhile the Elon Musk’s private space agency is ongoing planning the touristic space travels.
But the Crew Dragon of Space X won’t be alone in the future. There other proposals that arrive from private companies and from the same american space agency. Like the Dream Chaser, which could be operative for the 2020.
Meanwhile we are waiting for the first flight with human crew. Welcome back America in the field of the spacial transport of people.

The idea of humans traveling to Mars has captivated our imagination for decades. It represents the ultimate frontier, Going To Mars a new world waiting to be explored and potentially colonized. In recent years, significant progress has been made towards making this dream a reality. With initiatives like SpaceX’s Starship program and NASA’s Artemis missions, we are closer than ever before to embarking on the journey to the Red Planet. One of the key challenges in sending humans to Mars is overcoming the vast distance between Earth and its neighboring planet. On average, Mars is about 140 million miles away from us. This means that a one-way trip could take anywhere from six months to over a year depending on various factors such as spacecraft speed and alignment of orbits.
To ensure astronauts’ safety during such an extended mission, scientists have been working tirelessly on developing advanced life support systems capable of sustaining human life in space for prolonged periods. These systems must provide breathable air, food, water, radiation protection, and psychological support while minimizing waste production. Another crucial aspect of planning a mission to Mars is understanding how long-term exposure to microgravity affects human health. Scientists have conducted numerous experiments aboard the International Space Station (ISS) studying bone density loss, muscle atrophy, cardiovascular changes, and vision impairment caused by living in space for extended durations. This knowledge will help design countermeasures that can mitigate these effects during interplanetary travel. Furthermore, landing safely on Mars poses its own set of challenges due to its thin atmosphere and rocky terrain.


A retrospective on the Qantas 767 fleet over 29 years of service.
Tag / Boeing
After a final celebration in Qantas’ Hangar 96 in a few hours Qantas’ first B747-438 VH-OJA ‘City of Canberra’ will touch down in Los Angeles ending 25 years, three months and 20 days of commercial service. Holding a distance record, only surpassed by Boeing’s 777-200LR record in 2005, and speed record that it still holds, -OJA […]
Announcing the introduction of a 200-seat version of its 189 seat 737 Max 8 that will really only seat 199 caused Boeing’s Commercial Airplane team quite some confusion at Farnborough last week. The amusing exchange kicked off when a reporter asked, what should we call the new variant of Boeing’s re-engined narrowbody? “Max 8,” replied Ray Conner, president of […]
Air New Zealand brought its new 787-9 to Sydney for the first time today kicking off a series of ad hoc route proving flights before the aircraft enters commercial service. The airline says “the 787-9 is schedule to operate between Auckland and Sydney on a surprise and delight basis from 9 August.” Ad hoc services to Perth will […]
From scheduling to crew sign on, and blazing across the sky, this documentary is truly excellent Sunday viewing.
After a year long flight test campaign involving five aircraft flying over 1,500 hours of flight testing, the US FAA and EASA certified the Boeing 787-9 for commercial service this week. Take look at the crosswind testing that formed part of the 787-9’s certification process.

There’s been three notable incidents of late in which flight crew have mistakenly landed at the wrong airport – see the Dreamlifter, a C-17 and a Southwest 737. A third was almost added this past Tuesday morning when an Air India Boeing 787-8 registered VT-ANM mistook Melbourne’s Essendon Airport for Melbourne International Airport (Tullamarine).
Operating AI301 from Sydney to Melbourne VT-ANM approached and crossed Melbourne from the east following usual tracking paths for aircraft inbound from the north-east to YMML’s active Runway 34.
The flight crew initiated a right turn to lining up for Essendon’s Runway 35 mistaking it for YMML’s Runway 34. Essendon Airport is located 4.5nm to southeast of Melbourne International Airport, and has a similar cross-runway layout to Melbourne with the runway headings only offset 1 degree.
Our 2013 retrospective, and Airbus breaking with tradition on A350 MSN2 , inspired me to take a look at what this dynamic industry might have in-store for 2014:
Some big regulatory changes will take place in 2014. In particular, CASA will need to guide the Australia’s airlines on the use of Personal Electronic Devices (PEDs) following changes to regulatory legislation by the FAA in the US and EASA in Europe. Currently Australian carriers are self regulating in this respect, but moving independently as a way to gain competitive advantage will only create headaches for crew in enforcing use on-board.
The war will continue until the end of the first half, bringing further revenue pressure to the Qantas and Virgin groups. Qantas has invested too much the public rhetoric behind in its strategy, to back away now would look like it was giving in. Not the best market image to present given its current financial position. Expect the Federal Government to make small changes to the level of single foreign ownership to the Qantas Sale Act.
The political future of Tony Abbott’s Government depends on their ability to deliver a courageous bipartisan policy decision. With a promise of a decision, a ‘government of no surprises’ will now need to deliver with a real commitment on Badgery’s Creek. This will come as a stage 1 single runway development, with no rail connection, because Abbott’s made it clear he doesn’t like trains. Also expect a change to the slot caps at Sydney Airport, starting with the 05:00-06:00am landing window.
2013 was exceptional proof that aviation is far from sclerotic. Beginning with continued fixation on the 787 as Boeing’s amour propre was tested by further incidents and a grounding. Eyes turned skyward for the equal greatest number of first flights in history. Rarely appreciating the continued challenging conditions airlines and the industry faces, politicians continued to provide opaque interference, compounding an already fractured dichotomy. There was awe as the world’s largest airline was replaced with with an even larger carrier, rosy profit turnarounds turned into sickening loss projections, and a renewed geopolitical rivalry in everything from aerospace manufacturing to air traffic rights. Here’s our 13 of 2013:
1. The 787.
The most exciting new aircraft in years became known for one thing in 2013: fire. In January the worldwide fleet was grounded – only the second aircraft since the DC-10 to be grounded in this way – following a series of electrical faults and battery fires caused by thermal runaway. The batteries were pulled out, boxed, and additional venting at a cost of approximately $500,000 per aircraft. Back in the air confidence has grown, the 787-9 is now flying and there has only been a small fiery issue relating to a locator beacon. Image: Richard Deakin.
2. CSeries flies.
110 years later Bombardier did it again for the very first time. This time with the first completely new narrow-body design since the A320 family.
3. ICAO’s emissions agreement.
ICAO’s member states reached a landmark multilateral agreement to develop a market-based measure that would reduce carbon emissions by 2020. The agreement will allow countries and airlines to operate under a single global standard rather than competing carbon regimes. Governments’ individual plans will be approved at the next assembly in 2016.
