Comments on the article

7.4.1. This chapter of the Rules applies to electrical installations located in fire hazardous areas indoors and outdoors. These electrical installations must also meet the requirements of other sections of the Rules to the extent that they are not changed by this chapter.

The selection and installation of electrical equipment (machines, apparatus, devices) and networks for fire hazardous areas are carried out in accordance with this chapter of the Rules based on the classification of combustible materials (liquids, dusts and fibers).

Requirements for electrical installations of residential and public buildings are given in Ch. 7.1, and to the electrical installations of entertainment enterprises, clubs and sports facilities - in Ch. 7.2.

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 ... >>

SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft successfully returned from the ISS 08.03.2019

The Crew Dragon spacecraft, developed by Elon Musk's SpaceX to deliver and return astronaut crews to the International Space Station (ISS), has successfully splashed down in the Atlantic Ocean after the first Demo-1 test mission. The return and splashdown could be seen on the NASA broadcast.

Crew Dragon undocked from the ISS, after a six-hour flight entered the atmosphere and, braking with the help of four parachutes, splashed down in the Atlantic Ocean about 400 kilometers east of Cape Canaveral.

The first-ever test launch of Crew Dragon took place on March 2 from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the next day the ship successfully docked to the ISS. It was a test flight without astronauts. On board the ship was only a humanoid mannequin, nicknamed Ripley.

The NASA-approved Crew Dragon certification program consists of four flight tests: two tests of the crew rescue system (from the launch pad and in flight), as well as two flights to the ISS - uncrewed and manned. Thus, Crew Dragon has already successfully passed the tests of the crew rescue system with an accident simulation at the start, and also successfully completed its first flight without a crew.

At the end of June, Crew Dragon will make another unmanned flight to test the emergency crew evacuation system in flight, and in July, if all goes well, will make its first manned flight with astronauts on board - astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley will go on a 15-day expedition to the ISS.

The current contract with NASA requires SpaceX to use a new Crew Dragon capsule every time. At the same time, NASA's contract with Boeing allows you to use the same Starliner ship again. Perhaps in the future, NASA will allow SpaceX to reuse the Crew Dragon, as it did with the cargo version of the Dragon.
