Focus Description:

You take a deck of cards, put them on the table and mix them up a bit, making a little pile. You cover it with a handkerchief and lift one card through the handkerchief so that it is hidden from the viewer. Now wave your handkerchief... The map is gone

Focus secret:

To perform this trick, you will need a handkerchief with hemmed edges and an ordinary toothpick. The toothpick must be cut with scissors along the length of the card, after which it should be sewn into the scarf scarf.

After you cover the cards with a handkerchief, take it by the edges of the toothpick (as shown in the picture), the viewer will have the impression that you have lifted the card, when in fact it is not there.

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 ... >>

The threat of space debris to the Earth's magnetic field 01.05.2024

More and more often we hear about an increase in the amount of space debris surrounding our planet. However, it is not only active satellites and spacecraft that contribute to this problem, but also debris from old missions. The growing number of satellites launched by companies like SpaceX creates not only opportunities for the development of the Internet, but also serious threats to space security. Experts are now turning their attention to the potential implications for the Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics emphasizes that companies are rapidly deploying satellite constellations, and the number of satellites could grow to 100 in the next decade. The rapid development of these cosmic armadas of satellites can lead to contamination of the Earth's plasma environment with dangerous debris and a threat to the stability of the magnetosphere. Metal debris from used rockets can disrupt the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Both of these systems play a key role in protecting the atmosphere and maintaining ... >>

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Exoskeleton for special forces 04.06.2012

Prototypes of Lockheed Martin's HULC combat exoskeleton may soon head to Afghanistan.

The representative of the developer said that already this year the first combat exoskeleton in the history of the armed forces can go to the combat zone in Afghanistan. Most likely, HULC will be used by special forces, which will continue their operations in the Afghan theater of operations after the withdrawal of coalition forces in 2014.

At the exhibition of the Special Operations Forces in Tampa, an upgraded version of the HULC exoskeleton was presented, ready for combat deployment. It is equipped with a rotary mechanical "arm" (for hanging weapons and unloading the hands and back of a soldier) and a more powerful battery. Unfortunately, the head of the HULC program, Keith Maxwell, did not allow us to take photographs of the new exoskeleton model, but he willingly spoke about its advantages.

The first version of the HULC was demonstrated in 2010, but it was a bulky design that provided continuous movement for only an hour. The current version of the HULC, with a more powerful lithium-ion battery, can drive for 8 hours, while Lockheed Martin is working on a fuel cell generator that will increase the run time to 72 hours even in the most difficult conditions. That's enough for an average spetsnaz mission, plus the fuel cell can be refueled "in the field."

In fact, HULC is an artificial external spine, legs and a mechanical rotary "arm" that unload the soldier's musculoskeletal system. The latest version of the HULC is capable of carrying up to 90 kg of cargo and allows the commando to take with him more equipment, ammunition, food and batteries and at the same time stay in good physical shape longer. Moreover, for the first time, it is possible to use heavy weapons (for example, a 12,7-mm machine gun) by one person, which dramatically increases the firepower of the unit. It is also possible to use a heavy assault armored shield. In urban combat conditions, this is an indispensable, but very heavy piece of equipment. When using HULC, all the previously unbearable load falls on the strong metal "bones" of the exoskeleton, and not on the soldier's shoulders.

HULC is very durable and easy to use. After just 90 minutes of getting used to the exoskeleton, you can quickly walk, run, jump over ditches and climb steep slopes. With the growing importance of small groups, the exoskeleton is becoming an important element of military superiority, allowing you to carry heavier weapons, equipment or more ammunition.
