What could an ancient Greek man throw at a woman to show his love?

According to the myth, Paris awarded the apple of discord with the inscription "The most beautiful" goddess of love, Aphrodite. Therefore, if an ancient Greek man threw an apple at a woman, this symbolically expressed his feelings for her. And if a woman caught an apple, she accepted this love.

Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Why are Belgian blue cows with extremely high muscle mass valued?

Belgian blue cows, also called monster cows, are characterized by extremely high muscle mass. This breed appeared due to a random mutation in the gene responsible for myostatin, a protein that prevents excessive muscle growth. Belgian blue cows are valued for their lean meat with minimal fat content and are bred by linebreeding, that is, crossing individuals with their direct ancestors.

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 ... >>

Primium Seneca keyboard 05.05.2024

Keyboards are an integral part of our daily computer work. However, one of the main problems that users face is noise, especially in the case of premium models. But with the new Seneca keyboard from Norbauer & Co, that may change. Seneca is not just a keyboard, it is the result of five years of development work to create the ideal device. Every aspect of this keyboard, from acoustic properties to mechanical characteristics, has been carefully considered and balanced. One of the key features of Seneca is its silent stabilizers, which solve the noise problem common to many keyboards. In addition, the keyboard supports various key widths, making it convenient for any user. Although Seneca is not yet available for purchase, it is scheduled for release in late summer. Norbauer & Co's Seneca represents new standards in keyboard design. Her ... >>

The world's tallest astronomical observatory opened 04.05.2024

Exploring space and its mysteries is a task that attracts the attention of astronomers from all over the world. In the fresh air of the high mountains, far from city light pollution, the stars and planets reveal their secrets with greater clarity. A new page is opening in the history of astronomy with the opening of the world's highest astronomical observatory - the Atacama Observatory of the University of Tokyo. The Atacama Observatory, located at an altitude of 5640 meters above sea level, opens up new opportunities for astronomers in the study of space. This site has become the highest location for a ground-based telescope, providing researchers with a unique tool for studying infrared waves in the Universe. Although the high altitude location provides clearer skies and less interference from the atmosphere, building an observatory on a high mountain poses enormous difficulties and challenges. However, despite the difficulties, the new observatory opens up broad research prospects for astronomers. ... >>

Anti-crisis LED drivers FDL-65 from Mean Well 09.11.2016

For lighting courtyards, pedestrian areas in parks and squares, as well as other places of utility lighting, Mean Well has developed a new series of power supplies FDL-65 with an output power of 65 watts.

The features of the new series of LED drivers FDL-65 are low cost, output current stabilization mode, power factor correction (PFC; PFC), high efficiency and 3-year warranty. Power supplies are made in a metal case, filled with compound and have a degree of protection IP65.

The FDL-65 is available in two output currents of 1550mA and 1800mA, adjustable from 770-1550mA and 900-1800mA respectively. The converters are optimally suited for most LED arrays (COB) on the market for the power in question.

FDL-65 LED drivers are operable in the input voltage range of 180...295 V and temperature -40°C...+70°C, they have a set of protective measures against short circuit, overheating and overvoltage. FDL-65 allow you to create a simple and inexpensive luminaire for the needs of utility lighting that meets domestic operating conditions.

Main technical parameters of FDL-65 power supplies:

Output power 65W
Output current 1550 and 1800 mA
Output current manual adjustment range 770...550 mA and 900...1800 mA
Output voltage range 25...42 V and 21,6...36 V
Output current stabilization
KM>0,95
Efficiency=90%
Input voltage range 180...295 V
Degree of protection against external influencing factors IP65
Operating temperature range -40°С...+70°С
Dimensions (L x W x H): 151 x 53 x 31,5 mm
Manufacturer's warranty 3 years.
