Who was the first to conquer the mountain of the same name to his last name?

A year after the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Canadian authorities decided to name a peak in the Saint Elias Mountains in his honor, which at that time was the highest unclimbed peak in North America. It was first conquered in 1965 by the brother of the assassinated President Robert Kennedy as part of an expedition of the National Geographic Society.

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 ... >>

Komatsu Electric Micro Excavator 12.07.2021

Honda and Komatsu have developed a compact electric micro-excavator. It is based on universal battery packs from Honda electric motorcycles.

This product is an electric version of Komatsu's PC 0E small excavator. He gained a lot from this transformation. Exhausts, fumes and fuel leaks disappeared. The device has become easier to maintain and manage.

Honda has huge plans to convert construction equipment to traction batteries. Electric motors are much more practical and cheaper. Of course, there is such a problem as the cost of batteries (with their relatively short service life), but everything else should be cheaper and better than their gasoline or diesel counterparts.

The design and all mechanical components of the PC 01E micro-electric excavator were developed by Komatsu specialists. Honda engineers contributed to the Mobile Power Packs (MPPs), the main drive and the hydraulic pump to control the boom, boom and bucket.

As a result, a very convenient device for urban conditions appeared. Of course, it works quite slowly, but when digging narrow and relatively deep ditches in heavy soil, such a technique will save a lot of effort, time and money.

The small size will make it possible to use the Komatsu PC 01E in urban areas, even if there is very little free space around the work site.
