November 30, 2012
In a response to questions from lawmakers, the Federal Aviation Authority admitted that surveillance drone operators have zero privacy obligations, prompting Reps. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and Joe Barton (R-Texas) to complain that the federal agency is greasing the skids for authorities to gather private information on regular Americans.
Markey and Barton, who co-chair the congressional privacy caucus, sent a letter to the FAA seven months ago demanding to know what privacy protections the agency was putting in place in anticipation of granting approval for commercial groups to fly drones from 2015 onwards.
In its reply (PDF) , the federal agency responded to a question asking whether drone operators had to follow guidelines that address privacy concerns by stating, “The FAA’s primary mission is ensuring safety of the NAS (National AIrspace System).” While acknowledging that there were “privacy concerns related to UAS operations,” the agency did not indicate that it would mandate drone operators to follow any privacy rules.
Four additional questions on how the FAA plans to protect privacy rights are also included under question 7 in the letter. However, the FAA’s response to all of them is a single glib paragraph which merely repeats that “privacy concerns” are an issue but fails to identify what the agency will do to uphold them.

These clamps serve an important role in securing and protecting hydraulic, fuel, and electrical lines in Navy aircraft. If a support member loses its ability to dampen vibration and provide a protective cushion, the vital runs become susceptible to damage by forces including abrasion, vibration, and shock. Improved elastomer cushion materials are needed to stay reliably viable in service, mitigate overly frequent preventative inspection and replacement schedules, and reduce cost and downtime.
During Phase I Tetramer will develop a new cushion material based on polyurethane elastomers. Tetramer has previously used polyurethane chemistry to develop elastomers with excellent chemical resistance, hydrolytic stability, and tear strength. The Phase I effort will aim to demonstrate enhanced material performance against the combined effects of UV, ozone and hydraulic fuel exposure. Evaluation will include application-relevant mechanical testing, chemical resistance, and accelerated aging.
Successful elastomers developed in this program will have value for both military and commercial aircraft in protective support functions. These materials, with combined hydrocarbon, UV, and ozone resistance, can expand into aerospace, transportation, oil and gas, and industrial sectors in demanding applications that can include seals, gaskets, mountings, bushings, and belts. | aerospace |

Hera will go into operation in 2028. Photo: Sun.
The world’s largest hybrid electric petrol aircraft, Hera, has a quiet operation mode to reduce noise pollution and the ability to charge batteries in the air. This is a passenger aircraft powered in part by an eco-friendly electric motor that combines traditional gasoline fuel. Hera has a range of 1,480 km but could increase to 2,222 km after 2030 as the power density of the battery pack improves.
The Hera aircraft is a design by Electric Aviation Group (EAG), an engineering company headquartered in Bristol, UK and is scheduled to open in 2028. According to the EAG, they have designed and applied for 25 patents. for aircraft models are in the development stage. When completed in 2028, Hera can contribute to solving the challenges by reducing the large amount of greenhouse gases commonly encountered in conventional jets.
Because Hera has a hybrid electric design, CO2 emissions per capita per kilometer will be reduced by 70%. The aircraft model also reduces global warming by 90% and noise pollution by 65%.
Hera aircraft will be equipped with lithium-ion batteries weighing about 3.5 tons with a battery density of 250Wh / kg when in operation. Hera is suitable for transporting passengers between airports in the region. The overhead battery charging function minimizes turnaround times, allowing Hera to carry passengers during the day and cargo at night. | aerospace |

However, despite early drone successes and rapidly growing market adoption, some remain skeptical about the effectiveness and viability of internal drone programs at scale.
While many industry-leading inspection teams already utilize professional-grade drone hardware and analytics software to streamline their claims process, those evaluating the launch of an internal drone program can be distracted by misconceptions or common drone “myths”.
It’s time to separate myth from reality.
Join us as we investigate the 3 most common drone myths, and how the best inspection teams are myth-busting them.
Top Drone Myths:
- Drone systems and software are difficult to rollout and use at scale
- Drones aren’t much faster than traditional methods
- Drone programs aren’t cost effective

The study of these Earth-like planets, whose atmospheres have evolved towards different and extreme conditions, is a vital part of the understanding of the past and future of our subtle climate system.
Scientists in the planetary aeronomy division work with sophisticated models of atmospheric circulation to understand the dynamics and chemistry of the Martian atmosphere. Analysis of data from various space missions enriches the general knowledge of these atmospheres.
Mars, the planet
Besides Earth, Mars might be the best known planet in our solar system. But does Mars resemble Earth? Where does the red colour come from? Can we breathe on Mars and what is its atmosphere made of? Is it hot on Mars? In sum, what are its most particular characteristics?
Venus, the planet
Venus is an inner,or telluric, planet; the second from the sun. It is the third brightest object in the sky, after the Sun and the Moon. It is of similar size to the Earth and, according to observations, does not have a magnetic field. Venus rotates very slowly in a retrograde direction. The surface temperature is 470C, due to an extreme greenhouse effect... | aerospace |

The photographer in me won this battle as I had been planning a night shoot over the city for some time. Conditions last week were lining up to be perfect with the forecasts showing a two-day window that was the best for aerial photography I had seen in nearly three years.
There are so many reasons why photographing from a helicopter at night simply shouldn’t work.

Facebook could launch thousands of such satellites in the coming years and the initiative will allow it to increase its number of users.
Facebook is competing with SpaceX, which began launching satellites last February. SpaceX hopes to place thousands of these satellites in the orbit to provide optimal coverage and stability to its network.
Facebook collaborated with SpaceX in 2016. The latter had to launch a satellite for the social network, but the rocket exploded on the ground during a test.
Facebook’s confirmation about Athena comes one month after the Aquila social network abandoned, a similar project that was to use autonomous drones to connect remote areas to the Internet. | aerospace |

Work is planned to reconstruct Taxiway C and repair the south runway this spring through fall 2013 at Portland International Airport (PDX).
Planned is the full reconstruction of the eastern portion of Taxiway C, which provides aircraft access to and from the south runway. The south runway repair will replace concrete that was damaged after a military jet’s tire failed, causing its landing gear to scrape the runway. Temporary repairs are already in place.
Taxiway C reconstruction work will run from April 1 through mid-October. Repairs are planned for the south runway from approximately April 15 to May 31, and again from August 16 to September 29. The runway will be open between June 1 and August 15 to help accommodate peak summer traffic.
While no major flight schedule delays are expected, airport neighbors should expect increased flights over some airport neighborhoods during the south runway closure. | aerospace |

Before becoming a travel blogger, I spent 13 years working is various roles for a major international airline. Those were a great 13 years. Working for an airline is interesting, challenging and generally a lot of fun (most of the time). But during my 13 years, I witnessed a lot of things go on that the general travelling public would be completely oblivious to. I always thought when I quit the industry, I would write a book about my experiences that exposed all the dirty little airline secrets from from an airline industry insider.
Well, this article is no novel, but I managed to put together a list of 15 things that go on behind the scenes in an airline that might interest you, especially if you travel regularly. From passengers behaving so badly they forced the plane to divert to the nearest airport, to flight attendants doing the unthinkable. I've seen it all.
Want to know what really happens when an aircraft is struck by lightning, or encounters severe turbulence? And what about the plane water – is it drinkable? Can your mobile phone really interfere with the aircraft navigation systems if you don't switch it to flight mode? And what really happens to your beloved pets when they travel in the aircraft hold? Read about all these airline secrets and more on our recent article published on We Are Travel Girls – click here to read more.

Cast members Joel Kinnaman, Michael Dorman, Sarah Jones, Shantel VanSanten, Jodi Balfour, Wrenn Schmidt, Sonya Walger, and Krys Marshall gathered for a thoughtful conversation looking back on season one of the Apple TV+ drama.
Hosted by series creators and executive producers Ronald D. Moore, Matt Wolpert, and Ben Nedivi, the discussion explored multiple highlights from season one and featured an exclusive first look at the highly anticipated second season of this critically acclaimed series. They also debuted the first teaser trailer For All Mankind Season 2, which you can watch at the end of the [email protected] panel.
Season one of For All Mankind consists of 10 hour-long episodes. The popular Apple TV+ drama series explores what would have happened, if the USSR beat the US to the moon and the global space race never ended during its first season. This places NASA astronauts, engineers and their families at the center of a very interesting alternate history timeline. The show instantly became a hit on the new streaming service and fans are very much looking forward to season two, which was briefly teased during today’s [email protected] panel.
In an interview, series creator Ronald D. Moore spoke about why he was interested in telling the alternate history featured in For All Mankind. “I grew up with the Apollo program, as a kid, and it was really the catalyst for inspiring me to become interested in science fiction, overall,” he says. The space program was important to Moore when he was a child and like many others of his generation, he thought the space program was going to lead to more. “I thought it was gonna go much bigger than it did. I had dreams of moon bases and colonization, and all kinds of things that never came to pass.”
Looking at his expectations as a child and young adult, formed what made For All Mankind a reality. “The idea of doing the history that I never got to see was personally really exciting and interesting to me,” says Ronald D. Moore. He add, “And then, on a creative level, separate from that, it was also interesting, in the concept of this particular show, to start at the beginning.” As it turns out, Moore is not alone in his interest of an alternate history in regard to the space program and American history in general.
For All Mankind stars Joel Kinnaman in the lead role as fictionalized NASA astronaut Edward Baldwin and Apollo 11 crew Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins as characters in the story. Along with the space race alternate history, the fictionalized Soviet Union emphasizes diversity by including a woman in subsequent moon landings, which makes the United States intent on matching pace, while training women and minorities who were largely excluded from the initial decades of US space exploration. You can take a look at the For All Mankind panel above, and check out a sneak peek at the upcoming season 2, thanks to the Apple TV+ YouTube channel. | aerospace |

Typical parts include thin-walled, complex geometries and contours, presenting new challenges for geometric size and shape measurement. The main components of the aero engine include blades, impellers, blade discs, casings, disc shafts, gears, tooling gages, blank inspection before processing, process measurement during machining, accurate measurement of finished parts and dimensional shape Evaluation and analysis, Hexagon provides aerospace manufacturing customers with measurement solutions throughout the manufacturing process, providing users with reverse mapping, rapid blank margin analysis, manufacturing process quality analysis, digital production lines, digital assembly and high precision, high Efficient parts full-size digital inspection solution.
Typical complex shape component inspections for aero engines include:
The blade profile is mostly a free-form surface, and its profile and related parameters are relatively complex to measure and evaluate. It has always been a difficult point in aero-engine testing.
Currently, 33% of the workload of aero engines comes from the manufacture of blades. The number of blades detected is large, the precision is high, the measurement stability is required, and the measurement repeatability and reproducibility are suitable. Hexagon Metrology runs through the entire process before, during and after blade manufacturing, providing aerospace engine manufacturers with applicable measurement techniques and solutions.
Integral impeller / leaf disc
The blade disc is the blade rotor of an aero-engine that replaces the combination of multiple components in the past with a holistic manufacturing technique. At present, all blades of the leaf disc need to be tested in Europe, and each blade detects 5-8 sections. The accuracy of the measuring machine is generally required to be 1/10 of the blade disk tolerance requirement.
The Leitz ultra-precision measuring machine from Hexagon Metrology offers a complete four-axis disc/impeller inspection solution with precision turntable and QUINDOS software. Compared to other solutions, the measurement time is significantly reduced and the measurement process is more reliable.
The characteristics of the aircraft engine casing are complex shape, thin wall and high precision, and it is easy to deform during the machining process. After the parts are clamped by the machine tool, the forming and finishing of the inner and outer wall surfaces of the machine must be completed at one time, avoiding the product over-sequence and rework caused by multiple clamping corrections.
In-machine measurement, it can facilitate the clamping position of the workpiece, reduce the turnover of the workpiece and the time waste caused by the over-rework, improve the efficiency, ensure the accuracy of the workpiece size and the consistency of the batch processing size.
There are a large number of pipe fittings on the aircraft and the engine. With the ROMER pipe fitting measuring system, the pipe fittings can be detected accurately, quickly and flexibly. The system is the only movable pipe inspection system on the market, measuring from thin wires up to 150mm diameter pipe fittings. The software can measure the length, bending degree and resilience of the pipe fittings, and can introduce the CAD model of the pipe fittings to realize the comparison analysis between the measurement and the CAD, so that the quality assurance is more reliable. | aerospace |

This feature film debut from Ruari Robinson centres on the first manned mission to Mars. We find ourselves on the Tantalus Base, headed up by Commander Brunel (Koteas), as the crew are getting ready to depart the red planet. That is, until a strange discovery is made. When scientist Marko (Goran Kostic) decides to leave the ship to investigate a potential living organism, things take a turn for the dark and sinister. As tragedy strikes, the rest of the crew, with Schreiber’s Campbell at the fore, attempt a recovery mission. With other members of the crew experiencing their own traumas, it appears that this initial discovery is a lot more troubling than first perceived. So much so, the affected crew members seem to turn into some sort of zombie.
A unique premise, there is a lot of plus points about The Last Days on Mars. Schreiber, an actor that often divides opinion, does well as the lead of the film, and Olivia Williams and Elias Koteas also shine. That said, it’s always good to see Koteas in anything! The zombie spin offers something different, and it generally works.

It was pure torture; the first half seemed to fly but my god when I got on that second leg I soon realised the pain everyone had talked about.
I think all in all my journey took 24 hours ++
Now it looks like things are looking up! The Australian airline Qantas have announced a non-stop flight from Australia to London in as little as 17 hours direct. #Woo
Unfortunately, they won’t be available until March 2018, so don’t get too excited.
It does show that air travel will only get better in the coming years and it would be epic if you could make that trip in just one flight.
Did you know that when Quantas first introduced their “Kangaroo route” in 1971 from London to Australia, it took four days and nine stops! Madness.
Some facts about this upcoming “Dream liner.”
- Qantas said passengers will be able to book the flights as early as April 2017
- The 14,466km flight between Perth and London will take just over 17 hours
Every passenger in economy class will get a whole inch of extra legroom, compared to those flying on Qantas A380s
Seats will feature personal device holder and USB ports, more storage areas, a seat-back mood light designed to minimise disturbance for other passengers and a high-definition entertainment touchscreen.
The longest non-stop passenger route is currently an Emirates Airlines 14,200 kilometre Dubai-to-Auckland flight started in March 2016, taking 16 hours 35 minutes in an Airbus A380.

In 2006 at the paragliding world cup in Switzerland she and a group of friends were invited to do an exhibition jump. It was just going to be a routine flight in wing suits sailing away from an airplane to entertain a crowd of thousands below. Flying high overhead Karina couldn’t have been more happy. "I was there with friends I was having fun and everything was just perfect," she said. Karina made the jump from a small plane and carved turns through the sky in her wing suit. As she flew she filmed the others with a camera mounted on her helmet. "I could see the smile on the face of my friend and everything was great. I was suppose to open the parachute and land on the grassy field in front of the spectators. I could hear the clapping and roaring from the thousands of spectators underneath," she said. "And then a split second later I realized that something had gone wrong. And 15 seconds later my life was changed forever." | aerospace |

1- Get it done legally:
CLC Drone Photo & Video Services
You need someone that is certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to conduct commercial operations in the United States. People such as myself will have a greater understanding on what is, and is not allowed in the airspace in which the services are needed.2- Hassle Free
Requests can be arranged remotely utilizing various applications and services. From video chats to simple emails and phone calls. With the proper information I will be able to advise on any flight restrictions within seconds and work on getting the necessary approvals. As an experienced drone operator I've grown accustomed to researching locations and devising a plan of action.3- Hire the right people:
Not every FAA certified drone pilot can get the job done safely. There is more to a safe drone flight than knowing the laws. You have to possess the skills that will get you out of a potentially serious inflight situation (loss of satellite connection, bird attacks, battery errors, etc). These are some of the situations I have encountered and was able to safely land my drone. | aerospace |

The 12 new MH-60R aircraft will form a common fleet of maritime helicopters supporting all of the RAN’s air-capable platforms as part of the Australian Government’s Project SEA 9100 Phase 1 (Improved Embarked Logistics Support Helicopter Capability).
“The additional 12 MH-60R SEAHAWK aircraft is a testament to the Royal Australian Navy’s commitment to providing their service men and women the right aircraft for their mission needs,” said Capt. Todd Evans, program manager for the US Navy’s H-60 multi-mission helicopters.
The RAN was the first international navy to choose the MH-60R helicopter, purchasing 24 units between 2013 and 2016. | aerospace |

Forty years ago there was one small step for man and one giant step for mankind.
There are many wonderful books this summer to bring this incredible event to life for your kids that go way beyond the boring textbook information!
One Small Step by P.B. Kerr. Unknown to the rest of us there is a secret mission to land monkeys on the moon before humans. When the lead monkey is unable to complete the mission, NASA discovers Scott MacLeod, a talented 13 year old pilot, and asks him to be part of this top-secret plan. This is the Boys Only Book Club titles for July.
A book with the same title, but very different insides is One Small Step by Jerry Stone -an " 'ology" scrapbook of the the lunar landing. Nonfiction and lots of flaps to lift and pages to explore.
Last but not least, for the preschooler who's fascinated by astronauts and space, there is the Astronaut's Handbook by Meghan MacCarthy. This one explains all of the details of an astronauts life in clear drawings. My son's favorite is the astronaut toilet.
I guess I've always wanted to travel into outer space, and I'm looking forward to sharing this event with my kids. If these books don't seem to fit your kids, I have found many more ranging from a graphic novel about the race to the moon to Stephen and Lucy Hawkings' (of physicist fame) novel about George's Secret Key to the Universe

This was mainly due to being able to provide pilot instruction in a safe and controlled environment, and to establish interests outside the cockpit. While many high tech companies include a variety of software programs to enhance their training, it became relatively clear that to learn to fly or perhaps more importantly, to practice is best using real life flight simulator software.With the right software, you too can test your flying skills from the comfort of you own desktop. Whether this is a hobby you enjoy, or you are planning a career in aviation, you can experience what real pilots go through during their flight simulator training drills.Some of the benefits of using real flight simulator software to get you off the ground, include; the ability to choose the aircraft that you would like to fly. Online technical support will guide you through the various stages of flight, from mapping out your flight plan, to picking the runway, take off and landing.When it comes to modern flight software, most of the dials used are customized controls similar to those found on real jet aircraft. You will learn how to raise the landing gear for example, and maintain the correct heading, as you fly in the topography you select.By keeping your software up-to-date with expansion packs as the professionals do gives you the freedom to stay ahead of your game and really have some fun with your flight SIM. When you’re ready to take flight, don’t hesitate to go online and discover the fun of flying. | aerospace |

Berlin, 19–21 July 2023
Deadline for proposals: Wednesday, 15 March 2023
Participants will be informed by: Monday, 3 April 2023
In the past decade, historians, humanists and social scientists have begun to realize that the exploration of outer space was much more than a technoscientific enterprise. Rather, it was also prepared and accompanied, critiqued and opposed by a wide array of intellectuals from Hannah Arendt, Hans Blumenberg and Pierre Teilhard de Chardin to Carl Schmitt, Marshall McLuhan and Jean-François Lyotard. Weighing postwar world orders, environmental consciousness, cosmic solitude and human futures from an extra-terrestrial perspective, these philosophers contributed to the planetization of Earth through the thinking of space.
How we understand our diverse relationships to outer space is of vital importance today when it has become the site of new waves of geopolitical competition and commercial speculation. State and corporate plans for colonizing the Moon and Mars have captured the public imagination and budgets alike, while the threat of military confrontation and environmental destruction beyond Earth is rapidly expanding. Examining how philosophers and thinkers from a variety of intellectual traditions conceived, comprehended and communicated outer space is crucial to contextualizing the so-called ‘new’ Space Age. The endeavor will help to understand the intellectual and ethical foundations for contemporary interest in planetarity and what some believe to be a dawning Second Space Age. | aerospace |

Aerospace manufacturers have always aimed to keep this ratio as low as possible by creating lighter aircraft, but the metals traditionally used in aircraft bodies are heavy. Composite materials, on the other hand, are lighter and enable manufacturers to create more fuel-efficient aircraft when mixed with metal. Let’s examine the history of composites in the aerospace industry and where future innovation is headed.
How composites changed the aerospace industry
In the past, composites were mainly used in military aerospace applications. Manufacturing civilian aircraft with composites was considered too expensive, and if composites were part of their design, they were typically used for non-structural applications. This changed when the civilian aircraft industry had to respond to the rising cost of oil and pressures due to environmental concerns. The more lightweight aircraft structures that result from substituting composite for metal have lower fuel costs and reduced emissions. While only 12% of the Boeing 777’s weight was composite, the Boeing 787 is over 50% composite by weight. Composites are now commonly used in civil aircraft structures in increasing amounts.
Benefits of composites for aerospace
The lightweight nature of composites is far from their only benefit for the aerospace industry. Composites also have high impact resistance, thermal stability, and damage tolerance, which are properties that enable aircraft constructed with composites to fare better in accidents. Additionally, composites are better at resisting fatigue and corrosion than traditional metal. They are also easy to assemble. As composite technology continues to improve, all of these benefits are becoming more pronounced, and the costs of building aircraft with composites are going down.
Balancing lower weight with noise control and passenger comfort
The development of lighter aircraft through composites helps aircraft become safer and more fuel-efficient, but manufacturers also need to consider the comfort of the passengers in the cabin, excessive noise is often one of the main sources of cabin discomfort. Reducing the weight of the fuselage through lighter materials can result in a noisier ride if lower weight is prioritized over the need for noise and vibration reduction. However, composite parts for aerospace applications can be formulated and constructed to provide effective vibration damping. Incorporating lightweight insulation and cushioning materials allows composites to provide better vibration damping and airborne noise absorption, resulting in an airplane ride that is much more enjoyable for the passengers and pilot.
The future of composite aircraft
We’ve come a long way since composites were first introduced to the military aerospace industry. As we look toward the future, the industry will keep demanding lighter, more efficient aircraft. Eventually, we may see aircraft constructed entirely of composite rather than metal, but for now, aircraft are still only part metal, part composite.
In the meantime, we should expect materials manufactures to upgrade current composite systems so they provide more effective vibrational damping along with their lightweight properties. Aerospace manufacturers will therefore need to continue working alongside materials manufacturers to further develop the innovations that will facilitate the production of more efficient, quieter, and safer aircraft for civil and military use alike.

Battery Life The most significant obstacles encountered by the people when you use drones is its minimal battery. The drones which are currently available could not remain air-borne for longer than half a hour his or her batteries don't carry very much potential. This is among the elements of drones wherein a lot of development is now being created. Researchers are attempting to create stronger electric batteries that could keep your drones from the atmosphere for an extended time period. Furthermore, technology professionals are also checking out the potential of employing solar power for driving the drones way too. It is envisioned that from the really near future battery lifetime of drones will likely be substantially elevated, allowing them to travel lengthy ranges without requiring a boost.

Accidents Avoidance Security has usually remained just about the most described facets of the drone technological innovation. There is the risk how the drone would collide with all the physical objects that could come in their route like strength lines, bushes as well as other plane. To overcome this risk as well as raise the basic safety of your drones, scientists work on a accidents avoidance method for your drones. The thought associated with this is that the drones is going to be equipped with a method that could find the presence of other things inside their pathway and consider evasive maneuvers to prevent accidents. Although this sort of method hasn't been designed nevertheless, research is continuous and the probability of a development taking place are very vibrant.
Your drones scientists work on a accidents
Autopilot The drones which can be you can purchase presently need to be operated to some extent through the floor. You must have to pilot the drone remotely and tell it in which it must have to go. Consequently drones can only be operated by somebody who has the necessary coaching and certifications necessary to fly a drone. However, this is about to transform. Technician professionals will work on the autopilot in the drones so that they can fly autonomously with out requiring a man aviator. Using this type of autopilot function, folks who suffer from basically no understanding of traveling by air drones would be able to make use of them way too.
Aviator Using this type
Menu Menu is another part of the drone modern technology which is seeing quite a lot of enhancement nowadays. For the time being, Gps navigation will be applied with regards to navigating the drones but there are various imperfections using this type of strategy. Gps navigation isn't trustworthy in jampacked situations like forests and places with big buildings. The signals in the Global positioning system will get lost in such places that may negatively affect the air travel style in the drone. To avoid such an issue, professionals work on back-up the navigation solutions that can take around when the Global positioning system halts working for some reason. These additional menu techniques would tremendously assist in making certain the drones get to total their quests even if something goes completely wrong.
Will get lost in such places
Manage Solutions Handle solutions are vital to the success of drones. These systems are employed just for handling diverse elements of the drone though it may be soaring like disturbance, potential conditions, velocity, moisture and temperatures can vary. Without having these control solutions, the drone would go rogue and it could be impossible to control its motions. Enhancements becoming designed to the management metrics are focused on their protection. Technical industry experts are trying to be sure that the management solutions are resistant to malware and can't be hacked effortlessly. Also, new and increased control solutions are increasingly being developed offering on-floor aircraft pilots a larger level of control over the drone's movements.

Conversation Methods As is the situation with almost every other plane, communication techniques are extremely essential for drones. One can use them by the soil employees to convey with all the drone and also to provide needed directions on it. The connection system has to be wrong doing free and proof against mistakes because it is the only real path for leftover in contact with the drone. Like the manage methods, the communication techniques aboard a drone need to be firewalled as well in order that they can not be hijacked. Drone innovators will work tirelessly on enhancing the protection aspect of the UAV's connection solutions to make sure they can't be studied more than and stay useful even just in the most undesirable circumstances. uav for sale

Information such as weather forecasts, wildfires, and even understanding the climate crisis to a certain degree. However, a new German satellite is said to be a “game-changer” for understanding our changing environment. Its use of over 250 colors will produce the most precise data in satellite history, allowing scientists to gather information on water, soil, vegetation, and more.
The satellite called the Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program, or EnMAP, successfully launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida on April 1st. By April 9th it had officially reached its destination within Earth’s orbit, and currently, scientists are awaiting what they expect to be a plethora of information. EnMAP will be able to provide incredibly accurate data such as the levels of pollution flowing within a river or the specific nutrients in a plant, all from space. Everything on earth reflects light, and this reflection is assigned a different color relative to what material it is. EnMAP will use these colors, called spectral signatures when assigned a certain material, and send the data back to space in order to better understand the severity of the climate crisis.
For a while now, scientists have already had relatively accurate data on the speed of earth’s warming, the effects it is having presently, as well as what is to come in the future. The UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has recently reported that the Earth is warming much faster than had previously been anticipated. This new satellite will take scientists’ understanding much further, “Without Earth observation from space, it would be very difficult to quantify the global extent of the climate crisis and its consequences” said the Federal Government Commissioner for Aerospace.
The goal of EnMAP, therefore, is to determine the severity of global warming over the next decade, in order to forecast what is to come. Although scientists have developed many solutions that have yet to be applied to the issue, the forecasts will allow them to better inform governments and the public about the crisis. It will also help create better and more helpful solutions for combating climate change for when governments around the world hopefully decide something serious has to be done. | aerospace |

Adoption, Shelter & Rescue, Welfare
Fly4Paws is a not-for-profit organisations dedicated to providing air transport across Australia for animal rescue organisations, through our network of volunteer pilots and their aircraft.
There are 970 animal rescue organisations around Australia, many of whom desperately need to transport animals to adoptive families or medical treatment.
Our Fly4Paws volunteer pilots will help transport these animals to their new homes. Not just for dogs, Fly4Paws will transport cats, birds or other animals that are in an emergency situation and require transport.
Fly4Paws is a not for profit organisation founded by Thomas Prell in 2017, providing air transport to animal rescue organisations across Australia. Needless to say, if the opportunity requires an overseas emergency dash then Fly4Paws can also provide the transport means through the army of volunteer pilots. The animals can be varying from dogs, cats, birds, or other animals that are in an emergency situation and require transport.
Fly4Paws is not a rescue organisation, rather it's a transport provider for the 970 rescue organisations across Australia.
Fly4Paws is regulated through CASA rules and regulations. Any transport of animals is strictly conducted under the CASA regulation 256A.
Normally most transport of rescue animals is conducted by road. These trips take a long time and usually stresses the animals. There are commercial carriers which will fly rescue animals (at cost) but can only reach the major cities and the larger regional airports. Fly4Paws will fill the gap by connecting the general aviation and commercial pilot community and their aircraft where they can land at almost any of the 600+ airfields across Australia.
Fly4Paws connects 32,000 pilots across Australia (general aviation and commercial) to volunteer their time and aircraft for the cause of transporting animals that are in an emergency situation such as being on death row or require urgent medical treatment.
Fly4Paws also delivers urgently needed animal (we won't exclude human!) medical supplies to remote communities and to provide transport means for vets to remote areas where animals can't be transported.
Please help the rescue animals by helping Fly4Paws provide a much needed transport service. Normally through commercial flight it costs thousands of dollars to transport one dog. Fly4Paws, with our volunteers, will assist in allowing those animals to be fostered or re-homed in a much more efficient way.
Donate today. Every dollar counts towards providing the operations of Fly4Paws a means to assisting the rescue organisations. Every dollar helps and is tax deductable. | aerospace |

I’m glad I’m not a rocket scientist right now.
Here’s the rundown of what I’ve seen:
August, 22, 2008
NASA tried to launch a couple hypersonic suborbital experiments . It didn’t go so well.
August 19, 2008
NASA tried out their new parachutes for the Orion crew vehicle (the one that will be going to the Moon soon). Um. Watch eighteen-million parachutes not deploy in this hilarious video. From what I can tell from the press release, the first parachute failed, and everything depended on that. The following parachutes failed because the lander wasn’t at the correct speed or in the correct position.
August 18, 2008
There’s no video of the Ares 1 tests that I can find, so here’s an old test (2006) instead.
And then there’s NASA’s Ares 1 Engine Tests . While not a failure, they’ve got some issues left to work out. Basically, due to the design, the rocket vibrates so much that people on board the Orion Crew Vehicle would probably not survive. They’re going to install shocks, and they’ve got years to figure this out.
August 2, 2008
SpaceX (a private commercial space company) tried to launch their Falcon 1 rocket for the third time . Basically the second stage doesn’t blast off enough faster than the first stage rocket was already going, so the stages do not separate. This is bad. This causes an explosion.
Launch takes place 4 minutes into the video.
July 28, 2008
The one thing that seems to be running as planned is Virgin Galactic ‘s SpaceShip Two. On July 28 they unveiled the carrier for SpaceShip Two: White Knight Two. It’s named EVE.
I’m glad we are in the testing phase. In fact, I’m glad we HAVE a testing phase.

Thanks to the efficient fixed-wing flight mode, the Songbird has a small acoustic signature. A high altitude and a large distance to the target object can further help to remain undetected while the observation is carried out with the powerful stabilized camera.
The VTOL technology has some unique advantages for security operations in large areas:
- Flexible like a copter. The UAV can take-off and land on a narrow dirt road or a small parking lot. The sensitive payload is well protected thanks to the gentle takeoff and landing procedures.
- Long duration. Even with complex camera- and live transmission systems aboard, the UAV can achieve a flight time of 70 to 80 minutes. A target which has once been identified by a Songbird, can’t shake it off anytime soon.
- Fast flight. At a normal cruise speed of 70 km/h and a top speed of more than 100 km/h, any point-of-interest can be reached quickly. And because the UAV can travel on a direct route through the air, it has advantages over vehicles even if they manage to drive faster.
- Flight Distance. Airspeed and endurance add up to a mileage beyond the ability of any copter, making the VTOL the ideal tool for covering large areas. For example, equipped with a typical video surveillance payload, the Songbird can travel 80-90 kilometers!
Therefore, users can focus entirely on their job. For various tasks and demands, Germandrones offers different camera- and streaming solutions. There are powerful transmission systems for long range and high band width applications from VTQ, Silvus and via cellular networks. See here.

People are used to saying that the sky is the limit. However, it appears that it will soon change, since more companies every day announce plans of expanding their business beyond those limits. Some even base their whole business model on this notion.
One of those companies is Steve Wozniak's Privateer Space. The co-founder of Apple and a known philanthropist takes the term "innovation" to new heights. His new company plans to clean space debris.
What is Space Debris?
Space junk, or space debris, is any piece of machinery or debris left by humans in space. It can be big objects like dead satellites, ones left in orbit at the end of their mission. It can also refer to smaller things, like chunks of debris or paint scraps that have fallen off a rocket.
The space debris increases the potential danger to all space vehicles, like the International Space Station and other spacecraft with humans aboard, such as SpaceX's Crew Dragon.
According to NASA, the potential of collision has to be taken seriously, especially after the radical increase of space debris in the last years. There are more than 23,000 pieces of debris larger than a tennis ball orbiting the Earth. Travelling at speeds of up to 281 km/h makes even the smallest of these pieces very dangerous for a satellite or a spacecraft.
Privateer Space - The Space Waste Collectors
Wozniak tweeted a short Youtube clip on 13th September, where he teased the public with his message, "A Private space company is starting up, unlike the others".
The clip depicts a wildfire, a burning mannequin, and smoke coming from a power plant, which more than hints at our environmental crisis. The video description explains that Privateer is "working to keep space safe and accessible to all humankind," a bracing message in an era in which the number of billionaires racing toward the stars is going up.
The Privateer's plans are as cryptic as Wozniak's tweet, as the details of the company's mission, customer base, and product offerings are yet to be disclosed. It was expected that some details would be revealed at the AMOS (Advanced Maui Optical and Space Surveillance) 2021 conference, yet we're still kept in the dark on their precise intentions.
However, it is safe to assume that innovation in business keeps pushing the boundaries successfully. Let us continue working together in finding new ways to do good business on this planet and hope that entrepreneurs will do good innovative business in space too!

The Last Flight of Space Shuttle Endeavour is a live coding audio performance. It uses the original audio from the official NASA video that documents the launch of the space shuttle Endeavour's last trip to the International Space Station. The performance is an homage to the scientists and engineers who have worked on space shuttle missions and it commemorates the 25 flights the Endeavour took in its lifespan. In the performance the audio is manipulated in a live coded environment, meaning that nothing that happens to the sound is pre-programmed. The performance builds from a speech sample to a wall of sound to mimic the astronaut's experience of being launched into a space. | aerospace |

Attached beneath its massive, twin-fuselaged mothership, dubbed WhiteKnightTwo, the spaceship took to the skies at 8:30 am and climbed to about 50,000 feet in the air.
About 45 minutes later, the SpaceShipTwo detached from its mothership and dropped momentarily before the vehicle swooped upward. On board, the passengers experienced up to three Gs of force from the burst of extreme acceleration and watched the blue sky fade into the darkness of outer space. At the top of the flight path, more than 50 miles high, the aircraft was suspended in weightlessness for a few minutes, allowing the passengers to enjoy panoramic views of the Earth and space as SpaceShipTwo flipped onto its belly. It then deployed its feathering system, which curls the plane's wings upward, mimicking the shape of a badminton shuttlecock, to turn the spaceship rightward as it flew back into the Earth's atmosphere and glided back down to a runway landing.
Co-piloting the aircraft was Mike “Sooch” Masucci, a 1981 alum of La Salle College High School who has more than 30 years of civilian and military flying experience and over 9,000 flight hours in 70 different aircraft.
A graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy (USAF), Mike took flying lessons while at the Academy and earned his Private Pilot certificate, while majoring in Astronautics. After graduation, he attended Undergraduate Pilot Training at Vance Air Force Base and then remained there as a T-38 instructor pilot as a First Assignment Instructor Pilot (FAIP).
After three years as a FAIP, Mike was selected to fly the U-2 high-altitude long-endurance airplane. He eventually became in an instructor in the U-2 as well as the T-38, while still serving in deployments. His longest mission was 12 hours (13 hours in a space suit).
He was selected to attend the USAF Test Pilot School and became a U-2 test pilot, where he was instrumental in the development and testing of the aircraft’s glass cockpit and power upgrade programs. After a few years as a U-2 test pilot, he returned to Test Pilot School as an instructor and served as Branch Chief. In that role he flew the T-38, the F-16, gliders, and glider tow ships.
Mike retired from the Air Force as a Lieutenant Colonel and joined XOJET Inc., a private airline, where he flew a Citation X (CE750), accumulating 750 hours every year in Part 135 operations. He did that for several years, then received a call from Virgin Galactic. He is multi-current, flying the White Knight as well as the space ship (both aircraft have identical cockpit designs). Mike was selected to fly the second mission into space and earned astronaut wings on February 22, 2019.
“Virgin Galactic is truly a world-class organization with unique flight opportunities that you just won’t find anywhere else,” Masucci said. “I’m proud to be a part of this team and look forward to contributing to this revolutionary program.”

The number of foreign flights has skyrocketed since the beginning of the 1990s.
The increase in the number of international flights since 1990 means that the climate impact has increased significantly beteween 1990 and now. In the wealthy parts of Europe, we fly more than five times as much as the global average..
Different ways to measure the climate impact of aviation
The climate impact of aviation can be measured in several ways. International reporting to the UN and the EU is based on refueling fuel in many places. The figure for international flights is then based on the amount of fuel that the flight operators refuel within a specific country’s borders and is used for flights leaving the country. This is regardless of the country in which the airline is registered. However, these emissions do not include either the full climate impact of the emissions at high altitude or the complete emissions resulting from residents’ flights abroad.
Greenhouse gas emissions from aviation’s international bunkering were 2.6 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents in 2016. This is almost 90 percent higher than in 1990. Greenhouse gas emissions from international flights are not covered by countries’ climate plans to reach the Paris Agreement and are thus not included in the targets adopted, under the UN.
Territorial emissions and greenhouse gas uptake (reported to UN and EU)
We fly abroad more and more.
The number of trips abroad has more than doubled since the beginning of the 1990s. Due to the technical challenges that the aviation industry is facing when it comes to switching to sustainable flying and that the biofuel supply is limited, the trend is that we need to reduce our air travelling.
International action is needed
The ability to travel far and cheaply by air at a low cost is important for the well-being of many. Since there are still largely no viable and effective solutions that can eliminate the climate impact of aviation and when air travel is expected to continue to increase rapidly, aviation is one of the greatest challenges in both local and international climate work.
Due to international agreements, a tax on international aviation fuel is not allowed, which would be desirable as the rapidly growing international aviation emissions are a global problem. In some countries, a passenger tax has been introduced for the passenger. However, more measures will be needed to reduce emissions from our air travel. | aerospace |

But seeing a huge rock half the size of Earth smash into Jupiter in July 1996 was incredible. Can you imagine what would happen if Earth collided with a huge space rock? It would be disastrous. In fact, it is thought that a meteor killed the dinosaurs millions of years ago.
A rock like the one that hit Jupiter could split Earth in two. Doing nothing about it is like waiting for the end of the world. So scientists plan to start a project to identify all space rocks that could hit Earth.

Part IV in an exploration of the promise and perils of Starlink and planetary-scale internet service providers
IIridium and similar generations of satellites constellations that were deployed in the late 1990s and early 2000s consist of 25 to 75 satellites operating at an orbital height of 780 km to 1400 km, which allowed these network to provide low-bandwidth data and voice connections with relatively high latency (60ms to 120ms) using just a small number of satellites (see part II of this series for details).
At the time, deploying and managing a network of 75 satellites in constant communications seemed like an engineering marvel. Fast forward twenty years to today, and the scale of the deployed and planned satellite constellations has increased by several orders of magnitude to thousands and even tens of thousands of satellites!
These so-called Mega-constellations are designed to provide low-latency, high-bandwidth data service to consumers (potentially tens of millions of customers). To accomplish these goals, the orbital height of the satellites is lowered to 550km or even 340km. This lower orbit results in a much lower travel time for the signals between satellites and the earth, substantially reducing the connection's latency.
But reducing the orbital height comes with a cost: the area that each satellite can cover is also reduced substantially. More satellites are needed in each orbit to compensate for the reduced service area, and the number of orbits must also be increased. More satellites are also needed as the number of users increases, as each satellite has a limited amount of throughput.
Mega First Mover: Starlink
Not all future mega-constellations will be designed the same way, nor will they try to compete to deliver data services to consumers (several others will target defense or industrial users). However, the implications for our planet will be similar. Therefore it is worth examining Earth's most successful mega-constellation, SpaceX's Starlink, in detail.
After an initial test of three Starlink satellites in 2018, SpaceX developed a satellite production facility and started planning for the first phase of their networks. The figure below shows the orbits for the first phase. Starlink's configuration provides coverage for most of the earth's population without having many satellites flying over the uninhabited areas of the poles (there are a few in an elliptical orbit to provide coverage for the poles).
Starlink satellites orbiting at 550 km high travel at 27,000 km per hour or more, circling the globe every 90-110 minutes. The lower the orbit, the faster the satellite moves to maintain its height. The Table below shows Starlink's plan for their network and the status of the Starlink Constellation.
Rather than launch LEOs individually, Starlink satellites are typically launched in large batches (except when just a few are hitching a ride on a ride-share mission). Currently, SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket can launch 60 Starlink satellites simultaneously. Once operational, SpaceX's Starship system might launch as many as 400 at a time.
Before takeoff, the satellites are loaded into a carrier that holds them securely during the strains of launch and releases them once in space. The satellites are "flat packed" with solar panels and antennae unextended to minimize the space they take up.
Once the rocket and its payload are in an "injection" orbit (very close to the desired final orbit but not quite there yet), the individual satellites are released from the carrier attached to the front of the delivering stage of the rocket (usually the second stage).
To save fuel, thereby extending the useful life of the satellites, the devices slowly space themselves out and lift themselves (via onboard rockets) into the final operational orbit. Typically, a Starlink satellite will come into service three months after it is launched.
Living in LEO
There is no hard line between where earth's atmosphere ends and space begins. Even past the Kármán Line, there is a thin atmosphere, especially for objects traveling tens of thousands of miles per hour. The small amount of atmosphere these objects encounter makes them slow down, thereby losing altitude until they eventually fall back to earth. The lower the orbit, the worst the problem of atmospheric drag becomes.
The International Space Station has been in Low Earth Orbit for over two decades and has a lot of surface area, so its orbit is constantly decaying. To solve this problem, the ISS is periodically lifted back into higher orbit using either the ISS's two main rocket engines or the engines of docked spacecraft. Yearly, the ISS burns about 7.5 tonnes of fuel to maintain its orbit, costing $210 million to sustain its orbit (the fuel cost is minimal, but getting it to the ISS is very expensive).
While fuel can be delivered to the ISS, it is impractical to refuel an LEO satellite, so once it uses up the fuel it is launched with, a satellite in LEO will experience orbital decay until it burns up on reentry (hopefully within 5-10 years after its useful life). So no matter how robust the electronics and other components are, the useful life of a LEO satellite is limited. As such, spare and replacement satellites must be delivered into orbit to maintain a satellite constellation.
The need for constant replacement is one significant difference between satellite internet infrastructure and fiber optic cable installed on earth. Fiber optic cables deployed in the 1990s along the highways of my home state are still in use today and just as fast (the electronics that connect to the fiber is the "slow" part of any fiber connection, and this part of the system has been upgraded many times since 1990).
Satellite to Satellite Communications
The first generation of Starlink satellites act as a relay between users and ground stations and can communicate via radio between satellites (similar to the Iridium constellation described in part II). Newer generations of the Starlink satellite use light from small lasers to communicate with one another, increasing the connection's bandwidth and speed.
New satellites are being added to the Starlink network monthly, if not weekly. Several excellent websites track the development of Starlink and similar systems (OneWeb, for example) and provide the current status and location of each satellite in the network up to the second. The image below shows a screenshot of the status of the Starlink network from one of these websites, satellitemap.space. Here are some of the sites for tracking Starlink and the development of other mega-constellations.
Back on Earth
Starlink customers use a terminal with an antenna for communicating with the network overhead. The form factor can vary, but the smaller terminals use an antenna on a motorized mount and beamforming technology to focus on the satellites as they zoom overhead. Other designs are large, flat antennas for mounting on an aircraft, recreational vehicle (RV), or ship.
Starlink systems have been authorized for use in various applications besides residential and commercial use. They are especially popular with people who spend a lot of time traveling or living in an RV.
Commercial aircraft are also an emerging customer for Planetary ISPs. Commercial airlines that offer onboard internet access often do so via a connection to ground stations, which offer spotty and slow connections (the plane essentially acts as a high-flying hotspot) or through existing satellite systems. Starlink and similar services can substantially increase the bandwidth and reduce the latency for in-flight Wifi. Starlink has signed a contract to deliver onboard WI-FI for JSX airlines (a short-haul carrier in the southwest) and has conducted several tests with Delta airlines.
Quality of Service
Connection quality is directly related to the number of satellites over an area, the number of ground terminals those satellites have to service, and the usage of the service by end users. As such, bandwidth and latency experienced by Starlink customers vary with location and time. As more customers come online, the bandwidth can decrease, and latency can increase since the limited number of satellites overhead have to service more terminals. Likewise, when more satellites come online, the network capacity increases.
Adjustments to the constellation can also change the quality of the connections. Currently, the orbital height of Starlink satellites is 550 km, but the next generation of Starlink satellites will operate at a shallow orbit (340 km), dramatically reducing users' latency.
As of the end of 2022, Starlink has over 1,000,000 customers in 40 countries, with more customers and countries coming online quickly. SpaceX can't launch satellites fast enough to meet the demand for service, and as of this writing, they are floating the idea of data caps in some locations to limit high-volume users during peak demand times; data caps are already used for RV customers since they might roam into a geographic area that is already saturated with users.
Applications Beyond Internet
Besides providing internet access, there are several other services that Planetary ISPs can provide.
SpaceX has received approval from the FCC to deploy “direct-to-cellular” technology in its satellite fleet and has signed a deal with T-Mobile to deliver cellular services (at least data services) using existing smartphone handsets. This service might not include voice services at first, but would be allow for texting and low-bandwidth data services. Specialized handsets would allow for more applications.
In addition to allowing the passengers to keep up with their slack messages and emails, Planetary ISPs will allow better tracking of airplanes in uninhabited or sparsely inhabited parts of the world. When Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared in 2014, it was well outside any radar tracking and was initially presumed to have crashed somewhere in the South China Sea. Eventually, data from an Inmarsat satellite in GEO orbit indicated that it was last in the southern Indian Ocean, a vast area that is not monitored.
Even though there are no Internet consumers in the southern Indian Ocean, that area is now well covered by mega constellations like Starlink. These mega constellations could be used as a transponder network to locate aircraft and boats of all sizes.
In an interesting development, researchers from University of Texas at Austin have been able to use the radio emissions from Starlink satellites to determine one's location on planet earth. Lead researcher Todd Humphreys had originally approached SpaceX in attempt to co-develop an alternative GPS system based on Starlink, but was rebuffed, perhaps understandable as such a project was a distraction for Starlink. However Mr. Humphreys continued his work sans Starlink and has developed a basic GPS system based on Starlink.
Hundreds of Millions of dollars are spent by high-frequency traders to improve the speed of long-distance networks between exchanges. The Wall Street Journal reports that several trading firms are looking at Starlink as an alternative to land-based microwave and fiber networks. One startup is looking to launch a satellite constellation just for high-speed trading.
J Cooke, founder of London-based startup Azuries Space Mission Studios Ltd., has designed a satellite constellation that he projects will typically be about 20% faster than subsea fiber. Unlike Starlink, which plans to launch tens of thousands of satellites, Azuries’ proposed Angel network would have just 111 satellites. Mr. Cooke’s stripped-down constellation would be optimized to deliver data from New York to London, from Chicago to Tokyo and on several other routes important to traders.
The total price tag, he estimates, would be $155 million. Mr. Cooke, who is still raising money and has yet to launch any satellites, says his network could be up and running within three years of the startup closing its seed round.
Can we put the Internet in Space?
Content Delivery Networks or CDNs are ways for platforms and providers of streaming, photo sharing, and other high-bandwidth services to buffer or store content at locations closer to the user. For example, a popular Netflix movie will be automatically stored on a CDN, whereas a rarely watched film will be stored only in the platform's primary data center.
Currently, all the servers and services that a Starlink customer is accessing (including content on a CDN) are located back on earth, requiring an eventual connection to the land-based Internet and incurring the delay needed for the signal to travel back to earth. Placing CDNs in space would bypass the need to return to earth for the content.
It might seem far-fetched, but "unmanned" data center technology already exists. In 2018 Microsoft placed a data center in a waterproof container and sunk it off Scotland's Orkney Islands as an experiment to see if cooling costs for a data center could be reduced by placing it in the ocean and if data centers could be operated entirely remotely, after two years of operation, the project has been deemed a success. Microsoft wants to expand this idea into production data centers for its Azure cloud service.
Such a system could be deployed in space and would not need to be particularly complex—lots and lots of fast storage is required, not high-performance computing. Placing CDNs in space would save bandwidth and enhance the user experience. And in countries with many Starlink or other mega constellation users, using a data center directly tied to the network would be a logical choice. [Note: You might also have seen that there are several efforts to return humans to the moon. One company is already trying to figure out how to put data centers on the moon: Florida Startup Moves Closer to Building Data Centers on the Moon.]

An essential platform for critical flight decisions at over 80 airlines globally, WSI Fusion enables flight operators to fly safer and more efficiently through earlier insight into disruptive weather and operational conditions and proactive decision making.
Recent events shed light on the subject of global flight tracking, further identifying that international flight tracking data is inconsistently available. WSI Fusion provides cumulative data from several sources including Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B), Multilateration (MLAT), FAA, Eurocontrol, and customer specific flight data. WSI fuses this information together with schedule and flight status from airlines and airports to empower global flight tracking.
How does it work?
1. An aircraft gets its location from a GPS navigation source (satellite)
2. The ADS-B transponder on the aircraft transmits signals containing the location and other flight data
3. The ADS-B signal is picked up by the global ground-based receiver network
4. Receivers feed data to be centrally processed and delivered to WSI Fusion for operational use WSI Fusion users will now have:
These features extend WSI Fusion's existing industry-leading flight tracking capabilities to include:

NASA recently awarded a grant of $330,000 USD (approximately $413,000 CAD) to the University of Akron to research the potential of blockchain technology to improve space communications.
Dr. Jen Wei, assistant professor of computer engineering at the University of Akron, leads a team of researchers to develop a Resilient Networking and Computing Paradigm (RNCP) for space exploration.
The further we explore into space the longer it takes for the machines we use, such as satellites, to receive command signals from Earth. NASA wants ways to reduce the time it takes for their exploration vehicles to receive signals and react to potential threats in space. One possible solution may come from Dr. Wei’s research.
“The work done by [Dr.] Wei will advance cognitive communications for NASA science and exploration by developing a resilient networking and computing paradigm that will improve the efficiency of space communications,” noted a post on the University of Akron’s website.
NASA using Ethereum in space
The team plans to use the Ethereum network as the backbone to run the RCNP. Their research aims to combine the decentralized and robust nature of blockchain technology with AI and deep learning techniques.
“We will employ the blockchain technique to design a secure and decentralized infrastructure for processing the massive data for space exploration and related science,” according to a synopsis of their research.
A major hurdle of space exploration today is the distance between the machines in space and their Earth-based controllers. The distance creates a time lag between machine and operator. Semi-autonomous machines eliminate some of the barriers created by this time lag, by allowing the machines to make some decisions for themselves.
Avoiding space junk
Collision with man-made space debris is one of the biggest threats to machines in space. The RCNP will use blockchain technology to track space debris. The network could then automate the course corrections needed to safely move space vehicles out of debris paths.
The RCNP would also use collected data to allow space vehicles to predict and react to other operational threats.
This automation would drastically reduce the need for human operators to manage the safety of space vehicles. It also by-passes problems created by the immense distance between operators on Earth and satellites in space.
Safe data collection
The team is also looking at ways to use the RCNP to improve the robustness of data collection in space. A decentralized blockchain would ensure there is no degradation or loss of the critical data collected by vehicles in space.
The team led by Dr. Wei has only just begun research on their RCNP, however, the technology looks very promising. The power of decentralized blockchain networks may lead to a new era in space exploration.

The gases of the atmosphere are held in place by the planet's gravity. Close to the surface the atmosphere is relatively dense. On Earth, three quarters of the atmosphere's mass is within 11 km of the surface. The atmosphere becomes less and less dense with the distance from Earth and finally fades away completely into space. Sometimes, an altitude of 100 km is regarded as the boundary between the atmosphere and outer space.
Earth's atmosphere contains four gases in significant amounts. Nitrogen is by far the most abundant gas. It comprises 78.08 percent. Oxygen takes up about 20.95 percent of the space in the atmosphere. Argon 0.93 percent. Finally, carbon dioxide (CO2) comprises about 0.038 percent. Other gases are only present in the atmosphere in very small amounts. All these gases combined make up dry air.
There is also a significant amount of water vapor in the atmosphere near the surface of the Earth. Water vapor is the gas phase of water. It is much less uniformly distributed in the atmosphere than the four gases mentioned above.
The atmosphere of the Earth is divided into four layers. Closest to the Earth is the troposphere. This layer stretches from the surface of the planet up to an altitude of around 14 km.
Above the troposphere lies the stratosphere. The stratosphere reaches about 50 km in altitude. The ozone layer is located in the stratosphere.
The mesosphere reaches from the top of the stratosphere up to almost 90 km. Most meteors heading for Earth burn up in the mesosphere. Further away there is the thermosphere and finally the exosphere which fades diffusely into space.
The ionosphere stretches the mesosphere and the thermosphere, but in spite of its name the ionosphere is not really a sphere or a layer. The structure of the ionosphere is strongly influenced by the level of Solar activity and the number of sunspots.
These layers together protect life on Earth by absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation, and by keeping the surface warm while at the same time reducing temperature extremes between day and night through the greenhouse effect.
There are no physical barriers between the layers. They can be distinguished by the way temperature relates to increasing altitude within the layers.
When levels of CO2 rise in the atmosphere due to human activity the greenhouse effect is enhanced. This leads to global warming. | aerospace |

CEC and CNC series of low voltage ceramic capacitors have received the QPL certification for the 0402 case size. It is the smallest QPL-certified case size completing Exxelia’s MLCCs QPL-listed ranges.
Exxelia ranges of low voltage MLCC for surface mounting, CEC19 and CNC19, have achieved the Qualified Part List (QPL) status under the criteria of the European Space Component Coordination’s (ESCC) 3009/042 and 3009/043 respectively. The case size 0402 QPL-qualified parts are available from 10V to 25V, enabling substantial miniaturization and cost-saving. Dielectrics are based either in the very stable NPO (type 1) or the high capacitance X7R (type 2). CEC and CNC series combine high capacitance values with high thermal and voltage stability. Versions with polymer terminations are also QPL-certified.
These ranges of versatile chip capacitors are intended for use in a wide variety of aerospace applications requiring the highest level of reliability: satellites, launch vehicles, payloads, etc.
- very stable NPO dielectric
- maximum capacitance values: 330pF in 10V, 120pF in 16V and 100pF in 25V,
- large operating temperatures: -55°C to 125°C
- high capacitance X7R dielectric
- high capacitance rating values: from 68pF to 12nF in 10V, 8.2nF in 16V and 5.6nF in 25V
- large operating temperatures: -55°C to 125°C
Space & Military Grade Passives at CMSE - booth # B13 -
CMSE is one of the most recognized conference dedicated to the use of component in military and space systems. As a key supplier of highly reliable passive components, Exxelia will be displaying in booth B13, a wide variety of military and space-qualified capacitors (ceramic, tantalum, film, electrolytic aluminum), wound magnetics solutions and EMI/RFI filters. Two new ranges of MIL-qualified tantalum capacitors: MIL39006/22 & MIL39006/25 The recently introduced ranges of MIL-qualified tantalum capacitors will be showcased on the company booth (B13). MIL 39006/22 and MIL 39006/25 respectively equivalent to CLR79 and CLR81 types feature hermetically sealed cylindrical tantalum cases and axial leads are available in T1, T2 T3 and T4 cases with extended capacitance and voltage ratings. MIL 39006/22 is qualified for voltages from 6V to 125V and provides from 1200µF @ 6V to 56 µF @ 125V. MIL 39006/25 is qualified for voltages from 25V to 125V and delivers from 680µF @ 25V to 82 µF @ 125V. Both ranges combine high energy density with a large operating temperature range of -55°C - +125°C and H vibrations and shocks resistance. Alsic 20G, Aluminum Electrolytic capacitors with large operating temperatures Alsic 20G is a range of radial leaded aluminum electrolytic capacitors for typical use in military and aerospace high frequency switch-mode power supplies requiring advanced performance under all operating conditions. Alsic 20G operational rated life is 8,000 hours at rated voltage and 105°C, and provides from 330µF @ 500V to 80 000μF @16V. The range features ruggedized design with insulating aluminum case and tin coated leads. With capacitance stability at high temperature, low inductance and impedance, competitive ESR and high ripple current, these capacitors are perfectly adapted for mission-critical applications. C48X dielectric: NPO and X7R advantages combined Under working voltage, C48X dielectric provides equivalent capacitance values to an X7R material with the advantage of a very low dissipation factor (less than 5.10-4). It can also withstand very high dV/dt, up to 10kV/µs which makes it perfect for pulse and charge/discharge applications for firing units. Exxelia’s C48X capacitors, available from 200V to 5kV with EIA sizes from 1812 to 16080, are ideally suited for power applications where heat dissipation may be detrimental to performances and reliability, such as 400Hz Aircraft, Ignition systems, and Space, or as Precision/filtering capacitance in thermally challenged environment for AC or DC voltage.
Larger Batches of High Q-Factor Dielectric Resonators
Dielectric resonators are designed to replace resonant cavities in microwave functions such as filters and oscillators. Exxelia with the support of ESA and CNES developed the E7000 series that provides a narrow bandwidth with smaller size. E7000 is Ba-Mg-Ta materials based that combines an ultra-high Q-factor and the possibility to get all the temperature coefficients upon request. E7000 features the high-performance requested for space use in the frequency range from 5 to 32 GHz, and guarantees up to Qxf > 250 000 at 10GHZ. Being one of the few manufacturers producing its own raw materials, Exxelia perfectly masters the production of dielectric resonators. Induced by the success of this new range, the company is now able to provide larger batches (up to 20kg of powder) of its E7000 series while keeping the exact same product properties, resulting in opportunities for cost-effective volume fabrication. Typical applications for the E7000 series: Satellite multiplexing filter devices, radio links for communication systems (LMDS), military radars. | aerospace |

Ever wanted to explore space with your own spacecraft? Now is your chance – and you don’t have to be a multi-millionaire.
For just £99 (HK$1,160), Pocket Spacecraft is offering the public the chance to send personalised CD disc-like spacecraft – known as Scouts – into earth’s orbit. For £199, the Scout will go all the way to the moon and you can monitor it every step of the way.
Let’s be clear, the spacecrafts are tiny. Made of polyimide, the same material as space suits, they are paper thin and slightly smaller than an actual CD. Those who back the project will be able to personalise their spacecraft by adding a photograph or message. The more technically minded will be able to customise it to run their own software.
Thousands of the Scouts will be loaded into an Interplanetary CubeSat mothership, a 30cm long satellite. Physicist Michael Johnson, founder of Pocket Spacecraft, describes the process as like stacking Pringles potato chips in a canister. The CubeSat will then piggyback on a commercial rocket that’s heading in the right direction. Some will be released into space and flutter back to Earth and others will be released months later, when the mothership reaches the moon.
Johnson studied at Imperial College London and then spent a decade running a software development company before returning to his real passion four years ago. He has taught workshops on small satellites at Cornell University, MIT and California Institute of Technology. The Pocket Spacecraft project is a labour of love until it gets funded.
He’s hoping to raise the £290,000 needed for the project through the crowd-funding platform Kickstarter, and that will mean at least 2,000 people signing up. It’s not the first time he’s raised money this way. Two years ago he and his team raised US$74,586 on Kickstarter – more than double their goal – to send postage- stamp-sized satellites into space. That mission is due to be launched by Nasa at the end of the year.
Crowd funding isn’t just a means of getting cash. He sees it as integral to the project’s philosophy because it gives everyone the opportunity to get involved in space exploration. And after more than 1.2 million people signed up to have their name etched on a computer chip that went with Nasa’s Curiosity Rover to Mars last year, he’s sure there’s a public thirst for being personally involved in space exploration.
So far the bulk of interest has come from engineering students in universities around the world with project proposals ranging from the seriously scientific to the fun and quirky. ”
People are thinking about control systems – how you steer these spacecraft in space, different kinds of communications. Some are trying to record the solar winds, the sounds of space, and others want to do measurements to see how cosmic rays affect the spacecraft. People have also wanted to send messages on behalf of humanity, we’ve had marriage proposals,” says Johnson.
The Pocket Spacecraft team is a healthy mix of techies and creative types, which explains why alongside the earnest scientific proposals the website also suggests some less high-brow options, such as laser tag in space – that idea courtesy of the onboard game designer.
“Just because it’s a science mission doesn’t mean you can’t have fun,” says Johnson.
And the project has plenty of fun elements. Everyone who takes part will be able to download a Pocket Mission Control app and monitor the mission’s progress on their smartphone, from the lab and out into space.
For the environmentally minded, Johnson says that the Pocket Spacecraft’s impact will be very small, almost insignificant compared to the other craft that have been sent into space, as it is so light. And when it comes time to bring the mission to an end, they will crash responsibly, staying well clear of the lunar landing sites that are designated heritage sites by Nasa.
Of the 200 to 300 proposals that are submitted each time Nasa puts out the call for scientific proposals for an upcoming mission, only one or two are chosen.
“We’re hoping this will give scientists who perhaps weren’t successful in applying to the bigger missions the chance to apply for a small amount of funding and do these scientific interests. This sort of complements Nasa, it doesn’t in any way compete,” says Johnson.
Last summer he ran a workshop on small satellites at the California Institute of Technology and says half the participants were from Nasa. “They were very excited about the prospect of this small spacecraft and came up with half a dozen ideas for how these can be used for science missions,” says Johnson.
In the future, the small satellite strategy – as used in the Pocket Spacecraft mission to the moon – could even prove useful for Nasa. Curiosity’s first images from Mars were undoubtedly exciting and the rover’s findings remarkable, but it hasn’t covered a huge amount of physical ground. Johnson says all the rovers that have ever been sent out into the solar system have only actually covered about 80 kilometres.
“If you dropped 10,000 of these [small satellites] on Mars, you could get pictures from 10,000 points around Mars and then it would be useful to find out where you might want to send the next rover,” he says.
He has big plans for small satellites. One of the most exciting is sending them into the rings of Saturn. The distinctive rings are made up of billions of particles that orbit the planet, making it too dangerous for a large spacecraft to get close and have a look. A job well suited to small satellites, in other words.
“Because they are so small and inexpensive, it doesn’t matter if they get destroyed as they pass through the rings. The pictures that would be taken could be stunning,” he says.
The Kickstarter clock is ticking. A little more than two weeks into the campaign and Pocket Spacecraft has raised £32,624.

The space scientists and engineers get to spend an average of six months living and working with a multinational crew in what’s arguably the coolest office in the solar system.
So what is it like to spend 6 months on the International Space Station?
Construction of the International Space Station began in November 1998, through a partnership between Canada, Europe, Japan, Russia and the United States. Pieces of the station were sent to space on 42 assembly flights, 37 US space shuttles and five Russian rockets. The last major instrument sent to the space station, an Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer that’s mounted on the side to facilitate particle physics experiments, was sent on a shuttle in May 2011.
The ISS is a Laboratory.
The space station is huge – around 100m across – but much of that is filled with equipment and supplies, with passages that twist and turn so you have to move around by slithering in between it all from place to place. Left and right aren’t the only options in zero gravity; you have to remember up and down as well. It can be a bit disorientating.
Heating, cooling and the movement of air all have to be done by machines – there’s no gravity and so no convection to make the air circulate. This makes for a noisy environment.
The standard mission is around six months, and some astronauts can stay in space for up to a year. The need for teamwork in an isolated environment is why big characters don’t necessarily do so well.
Astronauts work nine-to-five
Well, not nine-to-five exactly. The space station runs on GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) and astronauts don’t operate in shifts – they get up together, go to work together, and clock off together, turning the lights up and down to reflect that.
In reality, the space station has a sunrise and sunset every 90 minutes, because it travels around the earth 16 times a day.
During the working day, everything astronauts do is monitored from the ground – it’s like being in a lab with controllers in the next room.
Often, astronauts will work separately, focusing on their own experiments. They come together for space walks, when they get suited up and do experiments on the outside of the station or repair hardware. This doesn’t happen every day because it’s quite dangerous. If a large piece of space debris were to hit an astronaut, their space suit would offer very little protection.
In the evening, some astronauts hang out in the cupola, the observatory module in the space station with big windows that allow you to look out over the space station and watch the world (literally) go by.
Astronauts have regular contact with their families through email and videoconferencing. There’s a high bandwidth from the space station because it’s only 400km away from the earth, so you can have a good video conversation – often much better than with someone else on earth.
Then it’s bedtime. Each astronaut has his or her own cubicle, a small space with a sleeping bag which they zip themselves into to avoid floating around.
There’s no bread in space
Crumbs would get everywhere in zero gravity, and keeping the space station clean is really important. That’s why there’s no good bread on board.
That’s not to say that there’s no fresh food – every couple of months or so, we have resupply vehicles that go up with fresh vegetables and fruit. Most of the time, however, the daily diet is heat-stabilised food from a can, or re-hydrated powdered foods.
You need to be careful about food waste and dirt, because fungi can grow very easily among those twisting wires and racks. You can’t just open up the doors and let the air into a spaceship for a good spring clean.
Astronauts don’t have beards
Our astronauts are medically trained, and there are escape vehicles on board if anyone became unwell and had to get back to earth quickly.
One of the phenomena of being in zero gravity is that the immune system becomes weaker. This is one of many things that we are investigating on the ISS. There are groups of genes in the immune system that for some reason need gravity to operate. Examining the reasons for this offers insight into why immune systems might fail on earth for other reasons.
There are no showers on board the ISS. Washing is done with a little water, liquid soap and dry shampoo. They do, however, have a hair-cutting machine with a vacuum. That’s another reason why not many astronauts have beards.
Astronauts need to speak Russian
All astronauts learn Russian, no matter where they are from. English and Russian are the working languages on board, and they speak a mix of the two. Russian is particularly important because the Soyuz capsules that you use to get back to Earth from the ISS are Russian-made. This means the buttons are in Russian; if nothing else, you need to know which ones of those to push.
The International Space Station is international in every sense
The idea of the ISS came out of the Cold War. During détente in the 1970s, American and Soviet capsules linked up in space. In the late 1990s, when the ISS was eventually launched, it was a symbol of cooperation between East and West – literally at the highest level.
There is also the practical question of cost. No country on its own could afford the kind of projects that we carry out on the ISS – in reality, there can be no ‘national science’. To carry out projects like these, the whole ethos must be to work openly and transparently and share information.
The ISS also involves the Japanese space agency, the Canadian space agency and, of course, the European Space Agency. | aerospace |

Dr Neil Tyson, director of the Rose Center for Earth and Space in New York, spoke before the National Space Society about the new national initiative for future human space missions. His presentation was at the NSS NYC Chapter meeting at New York University on Saturday 13 March 2004 with an audience of about 70. Tyson sits on the Aldridge Commission established by US President George Bush to realize his new vision in late January 2004 to resume human exploration of space. The plan includes flights to the Moon and possibly Mars. Tyson explained the function of the commission, named for its chair Edwin Aldridge. The formal name is 'President's Commission on Moon, Mars, and Beyond'. The team must make within 120 days of commencement a final report to the President; this is in late May 2004. The commission runs for 180 days so it can receive comments and discussion on this report. It must accept the Bush mandate of Moon missions and propose ways they can be actualized. It doesn't specify particular projects or programs, but only methods of working toward the first lunar flight. The target date for this flight is 2020, hardwired in Bush's speech. He compared this new commission with the one he sat on last year or so, the Walker Commission. That one studied ways to revive the American aerospace industry, including astronautical pursuits. At that time there was no ongoing goal for human space projects. Now the task is to move toward implementing a definite goal, to land humans on the Moon again within some fifteen years. Curiously, the words 'man' and 'manned' are still prevalent in the space jargon, despite the intervention in the late 20th century of neuter-phrasing in almost all other sectors of American society. Neil repeatedly said things like 'manned spacecraft', 'man on the Moon', in front of an audience of about 1/4 female. The Aldridge Commission has two potentially crippling constraints. First is the preexisting Columbia Accident Investigation Board's report about the Space Shuttle. The other is the International Space Station. The former relates to the use and fate of the three Shuttles. NASA interprets the report by proposing to disband the Shuttle fleet by 2010. It could be replaced by a new human vehicle, but there is nothing on the drawing boards that can be operational by 2010. The International Space Station so far proved to be rather functionless for science, except biology and medicine. No major physics, chemical, electronic, or other science as yet exploited ISS for experiments. In addition, the hoped-for use for industrial manufacturing never materialized. NASA will complete ISS in its central section only, not to its full extent as envisioned in the 1990s. Crew capacity will remain at three, not the seven of the fully consummated station. After 2010, with the retirement of the Shuttles and with no other means to lift and assemble more large ISS components, the space station will be abandoned. LIkely it'll decay from orbit. Tyson repeatedly mixed up 'space shuttle' and 'space station' thruout his talk. These were obvious slips of the tongue and no one seemed to mind. One killer for any government project such as the Bush plan is money. Can NASA get the funding and can the American public pay for it? Tyson assessed that the plan would require about $12 billion per year to accomplish for just the lunar mission and its preliminary flights. He noted that it is unrealistic to hope that NASA will suddenly and steadily get this additional input form Congress. However, NASA can draw heavily on Dept of Defense expertise, which is on a par with NASA's. DoD's own astronautical programs run into the tens of billions per year, at times buried in umbrella projects. By getting DoD to share or cooperate more closely with NASA, perhaps $10 to $11 billion per year can be allocated to the Bush vision. This is funding already in place or far more easily justified under defense reasons. Congress should have to pony up only one extra billion for NASA each year. An other killer is continuity . The American political government can change every four years; it must change after eight. The present administration is up for election in November 2004 with no certainly at all that it will remain in office for the next four years. It is completely plausible that the next president -- even if it be the one now in that office! -- can abandon the Bush plan. With the first lunar visit not before 2020, there are four chances for the Bush vision to be derailed. Neil emphasized that if there is no reasonable longterm continuity, across administrations, for the nest fifteen years, we spacefaring enthusiasts better just give up and go home. There simply will be no sustained human or robotic occupancy of space. He addressed some criticism that the US public is losing interest in the space program. He reported that all in all NASA's budget since the late 1960s was about the same, in constant dollars, with only modest rises and falls over the decades. There was the singular peak of funding in the mid 1960s for the Apollo project, but since then there's no long term trend of decrease as is sometimes claimed. He cited assorted public opinion surveys as indicating ongoing public favor for the space program. When, in one example, people were asked to give the most important achievements of the 20th century, every answer included the Apollo lunar landings. He reminded the audience, all space enthusiasts, of the public fervor over the Mars rovers and the acreage of newspaper space given to them. Neil stressed that Bush actually did not mandate flights to Mars as a direct target. He was vague on where to go beyond the Moon. Some space fans took the Bush scheme as a manifesto to head for Mars like right now. Tyson favors 'solar system' exploration without hitting on Mars as an end in itself. He also favors a mix of automated, robotic, uncrewed ships and those with humans on board. The latter would be for the missions to the Moon and perhaps a close-approaching asteroid. Beyond that it really is a bit much in the early 21st century to send humans to Mars and beyond. As a scientist, Dr Tyson reminded that taken all together, the world's space program delivered virtually all of its scientific results and discoveries from the automated spaceprobes with human craft offering up only a sliver. Need less to say, most of the targets of the robot craft are plain out of reach for humans and will remain so for many many decades to come. Any mass mobilization of US society to resume human lunar visits would require myriads and myriads of scientists and engineers. Tyson claimed we don't got them now or in the near future. One part of the Aldridge report may be a strong push for increasing science and engineering education so there will be a stream of new skilled trained people to build the lunar bases and send crews there. This is a replay of Neil's platform with the Walker Commission, the 'scientists in the silos'. He alluded to the rise of other nations to become spacefaring powers, like China and India. He said that combined, these two countries today have more scientists and engineers on deck than the entire American population. He mused on about the need to give incentives and promotion to students in high school today to take up science and engineering in college. They'll be ready for the lunar project in the 2010s. The crucial importance of science and engineering was brought out by a candid opinion of society. Who really moves civilization forward? Scientists and engineers. Poets, historians, artists do not. Nor do doctors. Tyson explained that it's the physicist who invents the devices and tools that physicians use. Chemists develop the medicines he prescribes. The one hot-button of the Bush plan is the Hubble Space Telescope. Right after Bush handed NASA his plan, NASA declared that it will not do the final visit to HST. HST will live out its life by 2007 and then decay naturally out of orbit. The timing could hardly be worse, due to the assimilation of the HST decision into the Bush scheme. NASA 'killed' HST to get money for the Bush lunar flights. The Hubble cancellation came from NASA's reading of the Columbia report. The Shuttle flight to HST has no provision to inspect the ship or rescue the crew. One reason for keeping the Shuttle only for ISS mission is that the craft can be docked at ISS and inspected for damage. If the ship is deemed unsafe for return to Earth, the crew can hole up in ISS until a second Shuttle can come for a rescue. In this new Shuttle procedure, two working vehicles must participate in each mission. The one makes the flight with the crew, The other is on hot standby in case it must be sent up for a rescue. The rescue trip may take several weeks to prepare, so the crew must be in some shelter able to sustain it for that long. International Space Station is simply the one and only option. As history fell out, HST is a very public satellite, more so than perhaps any other. It is also the most famous one that linked human space presence and science. Everyone saw the previous service visits, demonstrating how humans can do repairs and upgrades in orbit to a major science satellite. Everyone sees, almost monthly, the imagery sent home by HST. Some in the audience had with them, from newspapers and Internet, the Ultra Deep Field, captured by Hubble in the days before the meeting. Neil recalled the brutal fact that the benefit/cost ratio for human-based science in space was far out of bound. It is plain too costly and risky to send people into space to do the science that robots can do. The only genuine science he sees in ISS is biomedical. And that is just a side benefit. The crew can be wired for biomedical data collection while they spend almost every waking minute keeping the station alive and afloat. Even for the Hubble repairs, the crew was more of a mechanic doing a scripted task. But the videos and pictures of astronauts actually 'doing something' in orbit was deeply emotional to the public. The Aldridge Commission is completely neutral on the Hubble flap. Hubble is an existing project that does not lead to the eventual Moon and beyond missions. It's just that it, like the President himself, is caught up in the public -- and scientists's -- furor about the service visit's cancellation. Tyson has a disturbing fear that the very scientists who would prosper by fulfillment of the Bush scheme may agitate to curb it in order to save Hubble. The situation is a bit critical for the Shuttle. Apart from the concern about crew risk. going to HST takes out one Shuttle flight to ISS. ISS needs about 20 more visits, with cargo and crew, to supply it before the fleet is decommissioned. An other consideration is that now, with various new constraints on Shuttle procedures, like only launches in daylight and extra safety procedures and devices, a Shuttle flight will now cost about a full one billion dollars each! That's half the cost of the entire HST project up to first light. When the Shuttle is gone by 2010, there are still ten years to go before the first of the lunar flights. Here Tyson hazards that the lunar flights will be on single-shot rockets, not a reusable vehicle. He noted that the Saturn-V rocket was actually an effective and efficient means of accomplishing the Apollo missions because none of it had to return intact to Earth for reuse. The Space Shuttle is not due to the requirement to bring back the whole craft each time in one reusable piece. It may have been far cheaper to have the crew cabin separate as a capsule for return and let the bulk of the craft incinerate by reentry. An other problem with the Shuttle is that it was both a crew and cargo vessel. He checked previous Shuttle flights and found that most of them were for crew functions only. The cargo bay was empty. When the cargo bay was occupied, many times it was only for deploying a satellite, with HST being one such example. This is a task best done by single-shot uncrewed rockets. He postulates, that the new 'shuttle' will be more like a Soyuz capsule to carry only people to a base, like on the Moon. Cargo can be sent to the base by single-shot rockets. He mused that it may look like a shortened Shuttle without the cargo bay. International collaboration is a will-o-the-wisp in American space policy. There are perhaps two dozen countries 'in space'. But there are only five big spacefaring players. These are NASA, ESA, RSA, China, and Japan. The only ones that matter for the Bush plan is RSA and ESA, which have stake in ISS. Never the less, most of ESA's member countries now see that ISS is a goner and their euros are better spent in cheaper, more productive, robot spacecraft. Hence, NASA may simply announce that as at such-&-such date, it will abandon ISS, so the other countries better start getting their stuff home from there. Russia, once the prime partner in ISS, more or less is broke and would probably be glad to relieve itself of the International Space Station anyway. He closed with a reminder that the last of the five Aldridge Commission public hearings is in early May at the Hayden Planetarium. Details will come in April. Dr Tyson attracted a lengthy Q&A after the meeting and was thronged by the audience as he took down his computer and projector. | aerospace |

Just how many satellites are orbiting around Earth? Who’s launching them? And, what exactly are they doing up there anyway? These are good questions. Let’s dig in.
There are now nearly 1,500 satellites in orbit in 2017, and if SpaceX’s plans for a 4,425-satellite communications network come to fruition, our planet’s exosphere will become even more crowded.
What do satellites actually do?
Satellites are launched into space for a number of reasons.
They do everything from military reconnaissance to keeping our GPS systems working properly. The truly global scope of telecommunications wouldn’t be possible without our expansive network of orbiting satellites. For example, O3b Networks’ 12 satellites provide broadband internet service to emerging markets.
Who’s launching satellites?
The United States, with nearly 600 operating satellites, has clearly won the space race in this sense. That said…

The change, announced by Minister of Transport Minister Lisa Raitt, will allow passengers to use their devices during all phases of flight, including while an aircraft takes off, climbs, descends and lands, as long as they are in a non-transmitting or flight mode. That means no phone calls or use of Wi-Fi (unless you use services offered by the airline).
According to Minister of Transport Minister Lisa Raitt,
“This is great news for air passengers, and an exciting day for the Canadian aviation industry. By collaborating with our aviation partners, we are able to offer airlines the tools they need to safely enable passengers to use portable electronic devices on airplanes, while still maintaining the highest standards of aviation safety.”
Airlines will need to meet certain Transport Canada safety conditions to prove that their aircraft will not be affected by the use of the devices before they can allow their passengers to start using devices thoughout their flights. It’s not clear how long this process will take but we can expect airlines to make announcements once they get approval to go ahead.
Before this announcement, passengers were require to turn off their devices before take-off and before landings. The new rules follow similar ones in both the U.S. and Britain.

Paris: Defence Minister Rajnath Singh known as on French President Emmanuel Macron right here on Tuesday and the 2 leaders mentioned stronger India-France defence and strategic ties throughout their “very warm and productive” assembly.
Singh arrived in France on Monday for an official handover ceremony of the primary Rafale fighter jet acquired by the Indian Air Drive (IAF).
In the course of the assembly at Elysee Palace right here, the official base of the French President, Singh welcomed France as an “important strategic partner” of India.
The assembly was described by the ministry of defence as “very warm and productive”.
“The meeting demonstrated the depth of India-France bilateral partnership, especially in the defence sector, that has significantly strengthened in recent times. Both leaders resolved to take the relationship to the next higher level,” mentioned an announcement issued by the ministry after the 35-minute assembly.
“Singh thanked President Macron for his strong support to further intensifying the strategic partnership between the two countries and for his support to the Make in India initiative,” it added.
He additionally expressed condolences on the demise of former French President Jacques Chirac on behalf of the Indian authorities.
“We have a multi-dimensional relationship with France and the ties are progressing on all fronts. The talks today are part of a comprehensive defence dialogue between the two countries,” mentioned Defence Secretary Ajay Kumar, who’s a part of the ministerial delegation to France.
Singh additionally held discussions with France’s Armed Forces minister Florence Parly. Admiral Bernard Rogel, Defence Advisor to the French President, was additionally current on the assembly.
After the talks, Singh will probably be flown to Merignac, a suburb of the south-western French city of Bordeaux, the place he’ll take part in a tour of the power of Rafale producer Dassault Aviation earlier than a symbolic ribbon-cutting ceremony for the primary Rafale fight jet.
Preparations have additionally been made for a standard Shastra Puja, or weapons’ worship which types a part of Dussehra celebrations and this 12 months additionally marks Air Drive Day – IAF’s 87th anniversary.
“Greetings to all IAF personnel and their families on the 87th IAF Day,” Singh tweeted.
“The IAF is the shining example of exemplary courage, fortitude, determination and impeccable service to our nation. These men and women in Blue have the ability to touch the sky with grit and glory,” he mentioned.
Singh is scheduled to fly a sortie within the Rafale jet following the Shastra Puja performed by him, which can conclude with the normal breaking of a coconut earlier than the brand new plane.
“He will also perform the Shastra Puja on the auspicious occasion of Vijayadashami and fly a sortie in the Rafale fighter aircraft,” a spokesperson of defence ministry mentioned.
Members of the highest army brass of France in addition to senior officers of Dassault Aviation may also be current on the ceremony.
India had ordered 36 Rafale fighter jets from France in a deal value Rs 59,000 crore in September 2016. Whereas the formal handover ceremony takes place this week, the primary batch of 4 Rafale jets will fly to their residence base in India by Could 2020.
All 36 jets are anticipated to reach in India by September 2022, for which the IAF has been reportedly endeavor preparations, together with readying required infrastructure and coaching of pilots.
The Rafale is a twin-jet fighter plane in a position to function from each an plane provider and a shore base. The producers describe it as a totally versatile plane which may perform all fight aviation missions to attain air superiority and air defence, shut air assist, in-depth strikes, reconnaissance, anti-ship strikes and nuclear deterrence
“In the defence sector, the Indian Air Force (IAF) is our longest standing export customer and has been flying Dassault aircraft since 1953. The acquisition contract for 36 Rafale signed in 2016 and the modernisation of the Mirage 2000 I/TI are a continuation of this historic partnership,” Dassault Aviation mentioned in an announcement.
The Rafale jets meant for India are anticipated to return with sure bespoke modifications for the IAF and have been awaited as a vital enhancement to India’s Medium Multi-role Fight Plane fleet.
The primary Rafale jet will include tail quantity RB 001, with RB denoting the initials of Air Chief Marshal Rakesh Bhadauria who performed a key position in placing the deal for the jets in his earlier position as IAF deputy chief.

A profitable launch would enhance South Korea’s rising area ambitions but additionally show it has key applied sciences to construct a space-based surveillance system and larger missiles amid animosities with rival North Korea, some consultants say.
The three-stage Nuri rocket carrying what officers name a functioning “efficiency verification” satellite tv for pc blasted from South Korea’s solely area launch heart on a small island off its southern coast at 4pm. Reside TV footage confirmed the rocket with a nationwide flag rising into the air with vivid flames and above thick white smokes.
Officers are to announce the outcomes of the launch later Tuesday.
Within the first try final October, the rocket’s dummy payload reached its desired altitude of 700km (435 miles) however did not enter orbit as a result of the engine of the rocket’s third stage burned out sooner than deliberate.
If Tuesday’s launch is profitable, South Korea would turn out to be the world’s Tenth nation to put a satellite tv for pc into area with its personal know-how.
South Korea, the world’s Tenth-largest financial system, is a essential provider of semiconductors, cars and smartphones on world markets. However its area improvement programme lags behind that of its Asian neighbors China, India and Japan.
North Korea positioned its first and second satellites into orbit in 2012 and 2016 although there is no such thing as a proof that both one has ever transmitted spaced-based imagery and information again residence. These North Korean launches invited UN financial sanctions as a result of they had been considered as covers for testing the nation’s banned long-range missile know-how.commentary
Because the early Nineties, South Korea has despatched a slew of satellites into area, however all from abroad launch websites or aboard a rocket constructed with the assistance of overseas know-how. In 2013, South Korea efficiently launched a satellite tv for pc for the primary time from its soil, however the first stage of its launch automobile was manufactured by the Russians.
After Tuesday’s liftoff, South Korea plans to conduct 4 extra Nuri rocket launches in coming years. It additionally hopes to ship a probe to the moon, construct next-generation area launch automobiles and ship large-scale satellites into orbit.
South Korean officers mentioned the Nuri rocket has no navy functions.
The switch of area launch know-how is strictly restricted underneath a multilateral export management regime as a result of it has navy functions. Consultants say ballistic missiles and area launch automobiles share related our bodies, engines and different parts, although missiles require a reentry automobile and different applied sciences.
“Should you put a satellite tv for pc on the highest of a rocket, it might turn out to be an area launch automobile. However in case you mount a warhead on it, it turns into a weapon,” mentioned Kwon Yong Soo, a former professor at Korea Nationwide Protection College in South Korea. “If we reach Nuri’s launch, it is actually significant as a result of we additionally succeed within the check of a long-range rocket that can be utilized to construct a long-range missile.”
Lee Choon Geun, an honorary analysis fellow at South Korea’s Science and Expertise Coverage Institute, mentioned it is troublesome to straight use Nuri as a missile as a result of it makes use of liquid fuels that have to be saved at an especially low temperature and require for much longer fueling time than stable fuels. He mentioned North Korean long-range missiles additionally use liquid fuels, however extraordinarily poisonous ones which might be maintained at unusual temperatures and want sooner fueling time than Nuri’s.
This 12 months, North Korea has test-launched about 30 missiles with potential ranges that place the US mainland and its regional allies like South Korea and Japan inside putting distance.
Kwon mentioned Nuri’s profitable Nuri launch would show that South Korea additionally has the potential to ship a spy satellite tv for pc into orbit.
South Korea at present has no navy reconnaissance satellites of its personal and relies on U.S. spy satellites to watch strategic amenities in North Korea. South Korea has mentioned it might launch its personal surveillance satellites quickly. | aerospace |

Investigators from the General Civil Aviation Authority gave no explanation why Vincent Reffet, 36, of Annecy, France, didn’t use his parachute in the fall during a training flight in the desert.
Describing Mr Reffet as an “experienced professional skydiver” and jetwing pilot, the investigators said a video from the November 17 crash appeared to show him lose control and go into a backflip, hovering some 240 metres above the ground.
Such backflips are common when wearing the wings and recoverable if the pilot thrusts forward through the flip, the report said.
The investigation could not determine why the pilot did not[deploy his chute]
General Civil Aviation Authority
Mr Reffet had experience coming out of those flips, but at higher altitudes, Associated Press reported, citing the findings.
“The risks of the 800-feet hover was discussed during the pre-flight briefing and, as a risk mitigation, it was decided to abort the flight and to deploy the pyro-rocket emergency parachute should the jetwing become uncontrollable,” the report said.
“The investigation could not determine why the pilot did not choose this mitigation action.”
Video from a camera attached to Mr Reffet’s helmet showed the parachute only deployed after he crashed to the ground. Prior to that, his hands moved as though he thought he could enter again into a hover, the report said. The jetwing showed no mechanical problems before or during the flight, investigators said.
The training flight was to simulate a take-off from the ground, a triangular flight and a jet-powered landing on a 800-foot platform, the report said. A helicopter at that altitude was to simulate the platform, but investigators found no sign it played a part in the crash.
Flight sponsors XDubai did not comment on the report, nor did Jetman Dubai, for whom Reffet flew.
Reffet had BASE-jumped off the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, setting a world record. He earlier earned gold medals while competing as a free-flying skydiver and competed as an extreme athlete.
Jetman Dubai, founded by Swiss adventurer Yves Rossy, sees its athletes zip across the sky with a four-engine, carbon-Kevlar wing strapped to their backs. The wings can fly 50 kilometres, have a maximum speed of over 400 kph (248 mph) and can reach an altitude of 6,100 meters (20,000 feet).
In 2015, Reffet and Rossy flew alongside an Emirates Airbus A380 double-decker jetliner over Dubai. | aerospace |

Boasting innovative features such as active gust suppression, hybrid laminar flow control (HLFC), and a “no-bleed” electrical architecture that reduces the need for traditional pneumatic systems, the Dreamliner family is among the most comfortable, fuel-efficient, and quietest commercial airliners ever built.
Composites receive much of the credit. That’s because the 787’s wings, tail, doors, and one-piece fuselage section contain approximately 32,000 kg of carbon-fiber-reinforced-plastic (CFRP) composite—80 percent by volume and 50 percent by weight. According to its manufacturer, the Dreamliner “makes greater use of composite materials in its airframe and primary structure than any of Boeing’s previous commercial airplanes.” CNC Lathe
Impressive as that may be, composite use in aircraft is nothing new. In 1932, Amelia Earhart made aviation history by flying a Lockheed 5B Vega alone across the Atlantic Ocean, one of the first aircraft constructed from laminated layers of glue and plywood (which also is a type of composite). She called it her “Little Red Bus.” Fifteen years later, Howard Hughes’ Spruce Goose’s one and only flight was made possible through Duramold, a phenolic-based composite material developed during World War II.
Since then, CFRP and other composites are taking the pilot’s seat in aircraft design—for good reason. They are lighter than aluminum, stronger and more flexible—unlike metal, composites can absorb tremendous impacts without denting. And thanks to composites’ ability to assume practically any shape, aircraft designers have far greater design freedom than would otherwise be possible.
Because of this, industry leaders seek to increase composite use well beyond existing levels, and to manufacture future aircraft more sustainably and quickly. For instance, the Carbon Fiber Technology Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratories is focused entirely on carbon-fiber innovation and the scale-up of emerging technologies. And NASA’s Hi-Rate Composite Aircraft Manufacturing project aims to construct composite-rich aircraft like the Dreamliner six times faster than possible with today’s layup and molding technologies.
They have their work cut out for them. Achieving these goals will require significant investments in manufacturing technology, well beyond what’s currently available (and, as you’ll see, is already quite impressive).
CFRPs are abrasive and prone to splintering and delamination. The end mills, drills, and routers used to cut them must not only be wear resistant but have geometries able to cleanly shear composite fibers without separating the individual layers.
Kyle Matsumoto, the “resident expert on aerospace fastener applications” at OSG USA Inc., St. Charles, Illinois, explained that holemaking in composite materials can be particularly problematic. Traditional drill geometries tend to lift the individual layers during tool entry, then push them away upon breakthrough. And since the fibers are apt to bend and pull out during drilling operations—especially as the tool dulls—holes often end up undersized.
OSG has developed a line of cutting tools that help alleviate such composite woes. Matsumoto said that ultra-fine crystalline diamond coatings, when applied to carbide drills and end mills using chemical vapor deposition (CVD), make the tools freer cutting and more wear resistant than their uncoated counterparts, often providing up to 10 times the life and far cleaner machined surfaces besides.
Dirk Dietsch of M.A. Ford Mfg. Co., Davenport, Iowa, offers similar solutions. Dietsch, the regional business manager for the Great Lakes region, said the company’s 239-series carbide router—also with a CVD diamond coating—is licensed by Boeing. In fact, one of the OEM’s suppliers uses the tool to trim flash and cut windows in Dreamliner fuselage components.
Dietsch is quick to note that not all composites are bound for aerospace use; the automobile industry has also begun using this game-changing material in passenger vehicles, and for the same reasons. “We have a customer in Israel that’s making composite bodies and substructures for Chevrolet Corvettes and Camaros, and the bed on the GMC Denali pickup is also carbon fiber.
These and many other manufacturers are doing whatever they can to take weight out of their products, and CFRP is a great way to do that.”
Iscar USA of Arlington, Texas, recognizes this, and has responded by establishing a CFRP machining with part and process development. Its capabilities include the design and grinding of special tools, a Kistler system to measure cutting forces, and high-speed cameras and high-resolution microscopy to analyze the machining process.
National product manager for holemaking Patrick Cline ticked off a number of composite-specific cutting tools, among them the SUMOCHAM replaceable head drill, SOLIDMILL burrs and end mills, and ADU-ready (automated drilling unit) tools for fastener hole drilling. As with the other cutting tool providers listed here, CVD diamond is one of Iscar’s go-to coatings for combating wear, as is DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating and the use of polycrystalline diamond (PCD) segments brazed to a carbide substrate.
A range of innovative geometries is available as well, each designed to reduce the fraying, chipping, and splintering nastiness described earlier. “I should also mention that we offer uncoated cutting tools, but these are primarily for prototype and low-volume work,” said Cline. “Composites are very abrasive and will destroy the edge on an uncoated drill or insert fairly quickly, which is why we generally recommend a diamond coating or, for production quantities, PCD tooling. It’s the most expensive of all cutting tool materials, but is well worth the price.”
Dave DenBoer, aerospace industry specialist at Sandvik Coromant US, Mebane, N.C., is in complete agreement. He began machining 787 Dreamliner components in 2005 for a well-known aerospace company and is currently part of the manufacturing application support (MAS) group at Sandvik Coromant’s Precorp facility in Spanish Forks, Utah, which pioneered the development of PCD-veined cutting tools. He and his colleagues spend their days helping customers make composite machining faster and more predictable, working to avoid expensive failures.
“For example, achieving clean breakout on the backside of a drilled hole can be challenging in any material, whether it’s titanium, aluminum, or composite,” said DenBoer. “The good news is that we make a wide variety of tools in this facility that do extremely well in this and other applications. We also spend a lot of time developing the proper speeds and feeds for different composite materials, which is just as important as tool geometry to achieving proper breakout without the risk of delamination.”
This last part is critical, he added, since a single delaminated hole can cost upwards of $5,000 to repair. Further complicating matters are the different types of composites, each with a unique combination of resin and fiber types, shapes, orientations, and concentration levels. There are also additives such as aluminum and silicon (which make composites even more abrasive) as well as complications like “lightning strike,” a copper mesh on the outside of the fuselage that prevents damage during lightning storms.
“The composite world is already huge and new materials are coming along all the time, which is why it’s critical to use the correct combination of cutting tool and machining parameters,” DenBoer said. The last thing any manufacturer wants to do is change an end mill in the middle of a 45-ft-long wing spar or fuselage component. That’s why we spend so much time on process development, and is why we strongly recommend PCD-veined tooling for many of these applications.”
Developing effective cutting tools and process parameters for composite materials is challenging work, but no less so than designing the CNC machinery, fixturing, and toolpaths needed to machine the components.
That’s the job of Jim Cunov, chief engineer for aerospace at PAR Systems LLC, a Shoreview, Minn.-based manufacturer that engineers, builds, and integrates custom equipment for a range of industries and applications, aerospace composite machining among them.
“On the aerospace side, we offer machines that perform conventional milling, drilling, trimming, and sawing operations using diamond cutting tools and high-speed spindles,” said Cunov. “But we also provide abrasive waterjet cutting for cured composites, often in the same machine. Most of these are gantry-style CNCs and many are quite large—for instance, we’ve built equipment that processes the upper and lower covers for Airbus A350 wings, which at the time of installation, were the largest composite panels in commercial aerospace.”
Cunov has spent nearly four decades at PAR. During the first half of his career, he struggled to understand why customers were seemingly unable to present him with parts that met the required geometric accuracy. “A stringer might be out of true or a panel have some slight warp to it, and I found myself asking how they expected us to cut good parts when they weren’t at the nominal shape to begin with,” he said. “After a lot of head pounding, we finally realized it’s the nature of composites. The parts are big, they have spring to them, and they move slightly during the curing process. We knew that we’d better find a way to fix it ourselves.”
He and his team did exactly that. Using vision systems and laser profilometers, PAR is able to map a composite component’s physical location and contours and then morph the CNC toolpath to match the geometry.
“This allows us to produce good parts even when the layup doesn’t meet the nominal condition,” Cunov explained. “We call it adaptive machining.”
A key piece of this adaptive machining strategy is workholding. For example, PAR uses a series of robots to grip a stringer along its entire 20-30’ [6-9 m] length. After mapping it as described, locational information is sent to the system controller that then morphs the tool paths to accommodate the actual location and contour of the part as it is held by the robots. This arrangement also allowed PAR to accommodate a complete family of stringers, machining close to 900 different part numbers with the same configurable robotic fixture.
Some of those composite parts may have come from a machine built by Electroimpact Inc. in Mukilteo, Wash. A manufacturer of aerospace tooling, fiber layup machinery, and advanced automation systems, Electroimpact is another composite machining solution provider that uses robots to great effect. Robotic systems lead Russ DeVlieg described one example of this, a patented technology that uses six-axis articulated arms to perform aerospace milling and drilling operations. They call it the Accurate Robot.
Aurora Flight Sciences in Bridgeport, W.V., a Boeing company, has two such robots. They’re named Parker and Ackley, both part of its flexible robotic composite manufacturing cell. In addition to “milling a couple hundred different composite parts,” the system also does in-process robotic inspection and automated part handling.
“Robot use in the aerospace market is definitely increasing,” said DeVlieg. “Aside from cutting and inspection, aircraft components are often assembled by robots. We have robots that climb along the outside of the fuselage while a human works inside, drilling holes and attaching threaded fasteners as a team—robots touch pretty much every surface on a modern airliner.”
These are impressive feats, yet Burton Bigoney, project manager at Electroimpact, said it’s too soon to discount traditional CNC machine tools. “Our robots are extremely capable, but once you cross a certain threshold in terms of part size or accuracy requirements, or move into metallic structures, you need large, dedicated machine tools. That’s why we recently built a huge gantry-style milling machine for one of our customers, and we’re also developing some composite trim and drill machines.”
When asked why an aerospace OEM wouldn’t use off-the-shelf machine tools and robots for this type of work, Bigoney offered several reasons. Chief among these is Electroimpact’s extensive experience with large metallic and composite aerostructures, followed by high-speed clamping systems, precision countersinking abilities, and in-machine vision systems to locate reference features for assembly. “We developed these types of technologies for our riveting machines long ago, and are now able to leverage them on our robots and machining equipment,” he said.
DeVlieg seconded this. “Looking at the whole package, it’s something that maybe a handful of integrators can take on and actually succeed with. And off-the-shelf robots, specifically, don’t have the positional accuracy needed for this type of work.”
Electroimpact is probably best known for its automated tape laying and fiber placement equipment. Andrew Purvis is a project manager for this area, and noted that even here, robots are on the rise. He pointed to the company’s new scalable composite robotic additive manufacturing (SCRAM) system as a perfect example: a continuous-fiber-reinforced 3D printer that enables the tool-less rapid fabrication of aerospace-grade integrated composite structures.
Wood Cutting Band Saw “SCRAM is yet another instance where we’ve combined multiple processes into a single hybrid manufacturing system,” Purvis noted. “In this case, we can print a tool using a water-soluble thermoplastic, then deposit fiber-reinforced tape or engineering-grade polymers like PEEK [polyetheretherketone] and glass or carbon-fiber materials on top of and around that tool. SCRAM can also stop and drill or mill features at any time during the build,” he continued. “When done, the tool is dissolved and the part is ready for assembly. And because there are six axes of motion, we can deposit material in whatever position provides optimal strength and stiffness. It’s one of the first true 3D printers, but one that also has subtractive capabilities. It’s unique to the industry.” | aerospace |

This year the Royal Air Force celebrates its Centenary Year and, having spent a combined 34 years in the RAF, Al and I thought we should create a Windswept beer that commemorates the achievements and collaborations of the last 100 years as well as supporting the future of the organization through the excellent work of the RAF Benevolent Fund.
We have produced a beer that echoes the strong affiliation that exists between the RAF and the US Airforce that has resulted in the success we have seen with air power over the last 100 years.
The new beer blends traditional British malt base with New World hops to create a tropical fruit salad of a beer. With pineapple, mango and tangerine on the nose, and ripe stone fruits on taste; Hurricane is a big, smooth, fruity IPA.
To help with the naming of the beer we turned to Baz Dale (Wg Cdr Retired and Director of RAF Benevolent Fund Scotland) for inspiration. After a few beery conversations and some historical research, it was clear that the Hurricane was an aircraft that had been hidden in the shadow of the Spitfire for too long! Contrary to popular belief, it was the Hurricane’s stability, turn around time and numbers, not the Spitfire’s speed, agility and grace, that gave the RAF the edge in the Battle of Britain.
The Hurricane Beer launched on 1st May 2018 and we will donate 5p to the Fund from every pint sold in celebration of 100 years of flying excellence in the RAF.
For those of you who are still reading and would like to know a little more, below is a short history of the Hurricane. If you have any related stories or knew someone who flew the Hurricane we’d love to hear from you!
THE UNSUNG HERO OF WW2
The Hurricane first flew in Nov 1935 and was the first RAF fighter with retractable undercarriage.
During the Battle of Britain, the average numbers in Fighter Command were 1326 Hurricanes as opposed to 957 Spitfires and there were 32 Hurricane Squadrons and only 19 Spitfire Squadrons. Hurricane had a wooden frame and canvas covering that made it easier to fix and had a significantly faster turn round time than Spitfire, 9 minutes vs 26 minutes. This meant the Hurricane could be back in the air faster than the Spitfire, which resulted in it flying significantly more missions during that crucial time in 1940. The majority of German aircraft shot down during the Battle of Britain were destroyed by Hurricanes!
The Hurricane could be equipped with rockets and 40mm cannon and this versatility resulted in a multi role capability serving as a fighter, night fighter, fighter-bomber and catapult fighter.
As well as the Battle of Britain, Hurricanes, also affectionately known as Tank Busters or flying can openers, are famous for defending Malta until Spitfires arrived in 1942. They fought in Norway, France, Greece, Malta, Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Italy, India and Burma amongst other places.
The last squadron to operate Hurricane was No 6 Squadron (now flying Typhoons out of RAF Lossiemouth) in post-war Palestine.
Pilots who flew both in general preferred to fly the Spitfire, due to its greater power and lighter controls but, with its tighter turn and more stable firing platform, the Hurricane was often preferred for combat. | aerospace |

Aimed at those who consider themselves “young at heart” and are aged 8 years and upwards, 50Fifty Gifts has come up with a remote controlled helicopter with a difference. This model for would-be ground based aeronautical pilots is the UFO Space Messenger. As its title indicates, this helicopter has the capability to deliver messages during its flight through the air.
The UFO Space Messenger kit consists of the helicopter unit and a hand-held remote control device. A Philips screwdriver will come in useful when removing the items from the packaging and also when you need to open and close the battery compartment on the remote control to insert the six AAA batteries required for providing power. No prizes for guessing that this is another of those products that does NOT include batteries. You are informed about the lack of batteries on the box.
Looking more like a lunar landing module that the generally accepted appearance of a helicopter, the Space Messenger does not look like it could withstand too much damage. The Space Messenger’s outer shell is constructed of plastic with an occasional wire and various electronic elements. The unit stands on four spindly legs (these are important and I will return to them a little later) which can spin around as does most of this craft. Mounted on top of a section containing the main motor, is the unit’s rotor blades and a stabiliser bar. Enclosing the rotor blades and stabiliser is a frame that contains the two display LED panels that produce your in-flight message as they spin around. The Space Messenger has dimensions of 82 x 105mm (H x W) and weighs just 13g.
The remote control unit is more substantial with dimensions of 30 x 126 x 54mm (D x L x W) and weighs 145g (batteries included). Constructed of black plastic with white labelling, the remote control features six buttons that provide the means to create your message. There are buttons for Demo and Reset plus cycling backwards and forwards through the alphabet and moving between the seven character positions allowed for the message. Note there is no display screen for viewing the message. A single throttle stick allows you to control the Space Messenger as it ascends and descends. There also lights indicating power and charging status positioned either side of the on/off switch.
Located on the front of the remote control is a flip-out arm that needs to be linked to the Space Messenger when you need to recharge its internal Li-poly battery. Charging the Space Messenger can take around 30 minutes and this will give you between 5 and 6 minutes of flight and message construction time.
Remember those four spindly legs mentioned earlier – it is now time to return to them and explain their major importance which is not just to hold the Space Messenger upright. When creating your message of up to 7 characters (maybe text speech could help out), both the Space Messenger and remote control unit needs to be turned on. Unlike the Tini-copter reviewed recently, the brief instruction pamphlet supplied with this product does identify the location of the on/off button on the Space Messenger.
With both units turned on, you need to apply full throttle which, in normal circumstance, would send the Space Messenger flying upwards but not if you are holding onto its legs. You can then use the buttons on the remote control to change the message that is generated by the spinning frame and its LED panels. This is not an operation that should be left to young children and even a single adult might struggle to keep a grip on the Space Messenger while using the remote control buttons to create a message. The end result might look impressive but you have to ask yourself whether the effort was worth it especially if you need to keep changing the message. You also have very limited control over the Space Messenger when you let it loose to flying.
This is one of those toys that I feel will quickly be assigned to the cupboard and will rarely see the light of day – even if it is dad who hides it away from sight. 50Fifty Gifts have priced this toy at £25.

Aviastar-TU is one of DHL’s global airline partners, operating cargo flights primarily in Russia, Europe and into China. Aviastar-TU currently operates 4 Tupolev 204-100 and 3 Boeing 757-200 aircraft all configured for cargo operations.
Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport, previously known as Brisbane West Wellcamp Airport is a privately constructed and owned Airport, situated 25 minutes from Toowoomba’s CBD and around a two hour drive west of Brisbane. The airport was built by Wagners, a locally based company specialising in civil and construction works. It began commercial operations in 2014. The airport features a 2,870 x 45m runway and is capable of handling aircraft up to B747-8 size.
This particular 757 joined the Aviastar-TU fleet in January 2019 after a passenger to freight conversion in Texas. The aircraft previously flew for American Airlines as N690AA.
The flight operated by Boeing 757-200 VQ-BBU touched down at Wellcamp from Surabaya, Indonesia just before 8.30pm Saturday 21st September. According to information obtained by The Aviation Studio, the flight was an Australian government charter and upon arrival was unloaded within 90 minutes, with the crew being cleared by Border Force officials from Brisbane, enabling them to enjoy a relaxing night in Toowoomba.
VQ-BBU departed Wellcamp on Sunday 22nd September at 11.40am for Clark International Airport, Philippines as TUP2709.
Wellcamp Airport continues to see growth in the cargo market. Along with the weekly Cathay Pacific Cargo 747-8F service, there was also a recent An-12F charter and in the past Qantas have operated Airbus A330 charter flights directly to China. Airport officials continue to talk to other airlines in efforts to establish more frequent cargo and passenger services out of the Airport. | aerospace |

But what other function do a plane's wings serve?
The answer is: holding the fuel tank
Wings are generally positioned near a plane's center of gravity. The interior of an aircraft's wings is ideal for storing fuel tanks as there is sufficient space and their positioning means that the expenditure of fuel has minimal impact on the plane's center of gravity.
The weight of fuel loaded into the wings increases the downward force on the wing. This downward force helps ease the upward load on the wing base when lift is generated during flight. Accordingly, wing fuel tanks play a part in reducing stress on the wing root.
The HondaJet features natural laminar flow wings developed independently by Honda. Naturally, the aircraft's fuel tanks are located inside these wings. The HondaJet's natural laminar flow wings not only increase flight speed and contribute to greater fuel efficiency, but also have a higher wing thickness ratio* than other models of the same class, allowing a larger volume of fuel to be carried. | aerospace |

Wow! Talk about some Friday night lights! A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket lit up the evening sky over Southern California last night (Dec. 22) in a dazzling display that was visible to potentially millions of spectators and set Twitter abuzz with sightings.
The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched into space from California’s Vandenberg Air Force Base north of Los Angeles at 5:27 p.m. PST (8:27 p.m. EST/0127 GMT) — just 30 minutes after sunset — carrying 10 Iridium Next communications satellites into orbit. The mission was a success, with all 10 satellites reaching their intended orbits. But it was the jaw-dropping views of the Falcon 9 streaking into space that stole the show, leaving an ethereal glowing plume in its wake as it soared into orbit.
“Caught off guard and had no idea what was happening at first …must say it was one of my life’s coolest moments!!!,” said Michelle Snyder, who watched the launch from the Hotel del Coronado in Coronado, California. She sent in the video shown above. “A forever memory with my daughters and parents who were in town visiting for the holidays. FOREVER MEMORY!!!
From a southbound lane of the Interstate-5 freeway in Irvine, the launch wowed my 9-year-old daughter Zadie, who marveled at seeing the Falcon 9’s first stage separate from its upper stage (“I saw first stage separation? I saw stage separation!”) as we drove to meet relatives for the holidays. Her final say on the launch: “That is beautiful!” | aerospace |

While SIG addressed the issue with their upgrade program, we wanted to design our parts to be as light or lighter than the factory upgraded triggers but with the same strength and reliability. In our research, we came upon Tennalum® 7068-T6511 aluminum. Tennalum® gives our parts greater strength than 4130 chromoly steel, but with the lighter weight of aluminum. By comparison, Tennalum® is nearly 250% stronger than 6061 aluminum, but only 1/3 the weight of 4130 steel. This made Tennalum® an ideal choice to achieve our design and performance goals while maintaining the light weight necessary to meet or exceed the drop test standards placed on the P320® for service. Because of this material selection, we are able to manufacture a feature-rich trigger that is 1/2 the weight of the factory trigger, but just as strong. | aerospace |

This regulation, integral to the ReFuelEU initiative and encompassed in the Fit for 55 packages, is designed to achieve a minimum reduction of 55 percent in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and strive for net-zero emissions by 2050. This decision marks a significant step forward in supporting a more sustainable source of aviation fuel.
Following the adoption of the initial regulation draft in July 2022 and the announcement of a political agreement on the ReFuelEU proposal in April 2023 by the European Parliament, the official approval now imposes an obligation on airports and aviation fuel suppliers across the continent.
They are required to ensure that a minimum of 2 percent of aviation fuel is designated as ‘environmental’ by 2025, with a phased increase up to 70 percent by 2050.
As Palmoilmagazine.com quoted from Ethanol Producer, the regulation would determine kinds of source to be used in aviation fuel. Synthetic fuel, biofuel from agricultural and forest residue, algae, natural waste, used palm cooking oil, certain vegetable fats, and jet fuel from gas and plastic wastes that were recycled would be taken as ‘environmental’. Unfortunately, palm oil and soybean are not qualified in ‘sustainable’ criteria and banned to be used in the program.
ReFuelEU program would cover the introduction of aviation performance label that would start in 2025. Every airline company can market their label that shows carbon track per passenger and efficient CO2 per kilometer. This is about to deliver information for them about environmental performance from the aviation operated by many airlines.
Meanwhile, palm oil industries particularly in Malaysia responded that they have side products, for instance, palm oil mill effluent (POME) and palm oil fatty acid distillate (PFAD), as the sources for sustainable aviation fuel.
Though some protection lobbies are against palm oil use in aviation industries globally, including aviation test proposed by Boeing, SAF would be used as fast as it could by using palm oil side products as the materials. (T2)

The launching of this flight was well planned for the beginning of this years Ski season. Most Hungarians still go to Austria for skiing but Swiss Air accepts ski lagguage free of charge.
The flights will go 4 times a week from Budapest airport to Geneva and back. With around 100.000 HUF the flights are quiet expensive so it worth checking if Malév or EasyJet are flying cheaper. Except from these three there are no other airlines flying from Budapest to Switzerland. | aerospace |

The diagram below shows a
graphical representation of a typical water rocket flight profile. From launch to landing (in this case:
The pink line is thrust. The water is pushed out of the rocket by the expansion of the compressed air
inside it. As the air expands, the pressure drops, and thus the thrust wears off. When all the water
has been expelled, the remaining air bursts from the rocket at close to the speed of sound, and the rocket
is depressurerized in milliseconds. After this, there is no more thrust for the rest of the flight.
As thrust is produced, the rocket accelerates upwards (blue line) due to Newton's 3rd law of motion.
Even though the thrust decreases, acceleration actually increases. This is because the rocket
looses weight as the water is lost, and according to Newton's 2nd law, acceleration equals force divided
This acceleration obviously causes the rocket to pick up speed (green line). Water rockets can reach very
high speeds very fast. In this example, about 45 m/s (162 Km/h) in 0.7 seconds - and this is a pretty slow
rocket compared to so many others!
As the speed increases, the rocket climbs off the launchpad and gains altitude into the air (red line).
"Burnout" is a term from pyrotechnic rockets that actually burns their fuel. In water rockets, the
term is used for the point in time where the rocket is emptied, and thrust goes to zero. In the diagram,
this happens at 0.7 seconds.
At this point the rocket is at it's fastest upwards speed, and biggest upwards acceleration, but it has only
climbed about 10 meters. As the burnout happens, there is a discontinuity in the acceleration (blue line,
dashed). The acceleration does not go to zero, but becomes negative. This negative acceleration is the
combined effect of gravity(-1g; -9.8m/s2; 32ft/s2) and drag caused by air-resistance on the rocket. Therefore,
the rocket begins to slow down (green line).
Upwards Coast Phase
In this phase, there is only two forces acting on the rocket: drag and gravity. Gravity is constant and acts
downwards from the center of mass of the rocket. Drag is proportional to the square of the airpeed of the
rocket, and acts towards the rear from the aerodynamic center of the rocket. See the
stability section for in-depth explanations of these terms.
Apart from the square of the airspeed, drag is also proportional to the size of the rocket - namely its
cross-sectional area - and its coefficient of drag (Cd), which is a measure of the aerodynamic efficiency
of the rocket. The better the streamlining, the smaller the Cd, and the less speed it will loose.
As the rocket's vertical velocity (green line) goes to zero, the rocket reaches its highest point - the
apogee. Now, if the rocket was going perfectly vertical, it would come to a stop before falling down again.
But no rocket i have ever seen has been going vertically - it is almost impossible that some small gust of
wind, assymmetry or other factor has not caused a slight veer in the rocket's flightpath. Therefore, the
rocket will still have some forward speed (dark green line).
At this point, the rocket's speed is at its minimum, and and acceleration crosses the 1g-mark because the
drag now begins to slow the rocket's descent, not its ascent.
Downwards Coast Phase
This is very similar to the upwards coast phase: The only forces are drag and gravity. But now, drag acts
upwards, and not downwards, because the rocket is travelling downwards. As the rocket picks up speed in
its fall towards the ground, the drag-force increases, and starts offsetting the force of gravity.
(blue line goes towards zero, green line curves). If allowed to fall for enough time, these forces
would equalize and the rocket would reach its terminal velocity.
In this case, it does not reach terminal velocity, because it touches down before it has the chance.
The downwards coast phase ends when the rocket reaches the ground. In the rocket used in the diagram,
there is nothing to slow it, so it crashes into the ground at about 34m/s (122Km/h) *AUCH*
Usually some contraption - mainly a parachute - is used to slow down the rocket, so it does not
destroy itself and anything it hits during touchdown. | aerospace |

The F-16V “Pace” Warthog is a series of upgraded F-16A/B fighters. The acquisition comes amid continuing tensions with China and its military threats over the self-ruled island, which Beijing claims as its own.
China is Taiwan’s only remaining major military rival. The two countries fought a brutal civil war that ended with the Chinese mainland’s civil war victory in 1949.
“By purchasing new F-16s, today the government of the Republic of China has demonstrated to the world a big step in strengthening Taiwan’s defence capabilities. Such a move will help prevent the situation from destabilising and gravely affecting international peace and stability,” the president, Tsai Ing-wen, said.
“The F-16V is an advanced generation of F-16 aircraft. The upgrade of those aircraft will extend their combat effectiveness and adaptability to meet the 21st century’s various military and security challenges.”
The F-16V added vertical take-off and landing technology that enables the aircraft to be used as close-in air defence aircraft, with its multi-functionised sensors providing improved forward air defence, early warning, surveillance and electronic warfare capability.
The aircraft can be equipped with a number of new types of missiles, including early warning, heat-seeking missiles, a stealth takeoff and landing system, long-range air-to-air missiles and a video and photography-recording system.
US military officials said the F-16V would initially replace 13 F-16C and D aircraft in the Taiwanese air force’s fleet of F-16A/B aircraft. The service’s total fleet size of F-16 A/B and F-16C/D models will remain unchanged at 40.
According to Washington, its Taiwan Act, signed by former president George W Bush in July 2015, permits the sale of weaponry to Taiwan in order to enhance its defences.
China has pressured Washington in the past to abandon its arms sales programme to Taiwan, a diplomatic and military ally that Beijing claims as its own territory, and has threatened to attack if Washington moves against the island.
China is also uncertain over the US’s future stance towards China following the presidency of Donald Trump. In 2018, the US began its first sale of weapons and military equipment to Taiwan since Barack Obama was in the White House. | aerospace |

After a strenuous 30-minute hike to ascend 800 feet along a forested path in Burgoyne’s Cove, you’re rewarded with splendid, peaceful, beautiful greenery – and the scattered skeletal remains of an enormous war plane. What you see in this painting are remnants of its massive tail section. In other parts of the valley, you’ll find engines, landing gear, wings, and other splintered parts from the main cabin.
On March 18, 1953, the fatal flight left a US Air Force base in the Azores, bound for South Dakota. The plane was a Convair RB-36H-25 Peacemaker – the largest ever piston-engine aircraft and bearing the longest wingspan (70 meters) of any combat aircraft. Despite its Peacemaker name, these B-36 bombers were the primary means for delivering nuclear weapons until B-52 planes entered service in the mid-1950s.
The fateful reconnaissance mission was to test whether aircraft could approach North American defenses without being detected. The crew were ordered to fly without radar, using only their sextant for navigation, and the altimeter to maintain about 500 feet of altitude as they crossed the Atlantic toward Newfoundland. Navigational radar was to be turned on an hour before landfall so that they could climb to a safe altitude over Newfoundland’s mountainous coastline. However, the weather was so dismal and overcast that the navigator could not make use of the sextant to check their true position. Strong tailwinds rather than forecasted headwinds caused them to unknowingly reach Newfoundland 90 minutes ahead of schedule. During the crew’s last minutes, the plane flew straight and level at 800 feet with a groundspeed of 202 knots, through sleet, drizzle, fog, and visibility of less than 1/8-mile. The B-36 Peacemaker slammed into an 896-foot cliff at Burgoyne’s Cove and broke apart, creating a large fireball, scattering wreckage over a mile, and killing all 23 crewmembers on impact.
That same night a Boeing SB-29 Superfortress search and rescue plane took off from the Ernest Harmon Air Force Base at Stephenville in Newfoundland to search for survivors. It too failed to return from its mission, crashing beyond the runway in the fog and killing all eleven crewmembers. Despite an extensive search and dredging of St. George’s Bay, the wreckage of that plane was never found.
The B-36 Peacemaker wreckage was deemed unrecoverable and left behind as a memorial for the crewmembers. One propeller blade is mounted atop the cliff, overlooking the wreckage below, and bearing all the names of the crew. The site is frequented by locals and tourists who comment on the beauty and peacefulness of the scenery, and the solemn, sobering nature of the wreckage.
This was an unusual subject for me to paint. I’ve written before how my artistic eye is drawn to images that contain contrasts of shapes, textures, colors, and natural versus artificial elements. This painting takes the contrast of nature and man-made to an extreme. The plane broke apart against the immovable force of nature but in turn reduced all surrounding greenery to ashes. In the ensuing decades, is nature winning the battle? Much of the wreckage has been pierced, absorbed, or hidden by the lush trees and undergrowth that regenerated upon scorched ground. And yet, the yellow-orange undergrowth recalls the heat of the original inferno, while many ribs of that broken vessel defiantly persist. Even its tail number (51-13721) remains visible after all these years.
My thanks to Lisa Samways for taking the main reference photo. I was in there with camera slung around my neck, and so I needed one of my photos to recreate sections obscured by my presence. | aerospace |
