Why was the Soviet football player Alexander Zavarov called the beetroot in France?

At the end of his career, the famous Soviet football player Alexander Zavarov played for the French club Nancy. The team nicknamed him "blette" (this is the French name for a subspecies of beets), because Zavarov often uttered this word with his own or other people's mistakes on the football field.

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

Space water engine 05.04.2023

Pale Blue, who was born in the walls of the University of Tokyo, tested the rocket engine while adjusting the orbit of the EYE satellite.

Despite the simple mechanics of operation based on Newtonian physics, and relatively low cost, water engines for satellites have not yet become widespread.

Developed by Pale Blue, the system was launched with Sony's EYE satellite as part of its Earth imaging program. At launch, the engine was turned on for approximately two minutes, during which the EYE satellite orbit was corrected.

Pale Blue was created by Japanese scientists three years ago. It is developing several types of water-based propulsion systems. The one that was launched on EYE is called "Resistojet". The principle of its operation is quite simple. Basically, it just pushes the water out of the tube to push the satellite in a given direction. Correction of the movement of the object in this case is carried out using electronics.

The company is not going to stop there. She is already working on another type of water-based engine that looks more like an ion than a simple jet engine. In this configuration, water is atomized by a microwave plasma source and ejected from the rear of the setup.

Although it has not yet been possible to test the ion engine in Pale Blue space, the company has planned an even more ambitious one - combining two engine configurations into one hybrid.
