What foods can be stored longer than others?

Of course, sterilized (ready-to-eat products heated to over 100°C), dried in the sun and fresh air (fruits, spices, some mushrooms) and vacuum-frozen (not to be confused with deep-frozen!), dehydrated at temperatures below 30° With coffee, mushrooms and spices. So-called deep-frozen foods can be stored in a freezer at -18°C for several months.

Who discovered Alaska?

When white people appeared in Alaska, they discovered that Eskimos, Aleuts and Indians live here. Alaska is one of the largest territories in the world ever discovered and developed by a white man. At the beginning of the XNUMXth century, Russian sailors were moving through Siberia to the Pacific Ocean.

In 1728, Vitus Bering, a Dane in the service of the Russian government, sailed east of Kamchatka. He sailed along the island of St. Lawrence, but did not reach mainland Alaska. In 1741, Bering led a second expedition on two small ships. He commanded one of these ships, the St. Peter, and the St. Paul was commanded by Alexei Chirikov. The ships were scattered by the storm, but they both reached Alaska.

For the next two centuries, Russian hunters hunted furs in the waters of Alaska. They founded many settlements, and in many places there are still quaint churches built by the Aleuts and Indians under the leadership of Russian missionaries. Subsequently, the coast of Alaska was mastered by the sailors of Spain, France and Great Britain. But it was the Russians who used Alaska as a source of furs, which they supplied in huge quantities to European capitals. Then the number of fur animals began to decrease, and by the 1820s, the Russians began to leave the coast of Alaska.

Russian Tsar Alexander II was not too interested in Alaska. Lincoln-era Secretary of State William H. Seward persuaded his government to buy Alaska from the Russians, and in 1867 Alaska was sold to the United States for $7, less than two cents an acre! Today Alaska is not just the forty-ninth state of the USA, the value of this territory can hardly be measured in dollars!

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Solar sails for spacecraft 14.06.2022

A NASA-funded project is developing a new technology that would allow spacecraft to be powered by "solar sails".

NASA has announced that it will provide $2 million to the Diffractive Solar Sailing project, which is exploring ways to use solar energy to drive and power vehicles in space. The agency has long been interested in solar sail technology because it offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional propulsion without requiring fuel.

In fact, ships could use an almost inexhaustible resource for power - sunlight. Previous "solar sail" designs have mostly used mirrored surfaces to reflect light particles. When photons hit the sail, they transfer their energy and propel the spacecraft forward.

This method, however, has disadvantages: the ship can only move in the direction of sunlight. To get around this, the Diffractive Solar Sailing project is developing sails that "bent" the light to increase maneuverability.
