For centuries, it has linked the eastern and western regions of the Indian subcontinent, running from Bengal, across north India, into Peshawar, Pakistan. Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity.

  • SPACE PERSPECTIVE to FLY PEOPLE and PAYLOADS to the EDGE of SPACE Jun 18, 2020
    SPACE PERSPECTIVE TO FLY PEOPLE AND PAYLOADS TO THE EDGE OF SPACE Jun 18, 2020 COMPANY ESTABLISHES LAUNCH OPERATIONS CENTER AT NASA’S KENNEDY SPACE CENTER Kennedy Space Center, Fla. – Space Perspective today announced its plans to fly passengers and research payloads to the edge of space with its Spaceship Neptune, a high-performance balloon and pressurized capsule. The human space flight company plans to launch from the iconic Shuttle Landing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida, with the first un-crewed test flight scheduled in early 2021 that will include a suite of research payloads. “We’re committed to fundamentally changing the way people have access to space – both to perform much-needed research to benefit life on Earth and to affect how we view and connect with our planet,” said Space Perspective Founder and Co-CEO Jane Poynter. “Today, it is more crucial than ever to see Earth as a planet, a spaceship for all humanity and our global biosphere.” The company has completed extensive international market research and a new design built on 50+ years of proven technology. Spaceship Neptune was developed from the ground up for maximum safety, accessibility, near zero-emissions and routine operations around the world. The balloon measures the length of a football stadium and the pressurized capsule is comfortable and spacious. Flown by a pilot, Neptune takes up to eight passengers called “Explorers” on a six-hour journey to the edge of space and safely back, where only 20 people have been before. It will carry people and research payloads on a two-hour gentle ascent above 99% of the Earth’s atmosphere to 100,000 feet, where it cruises above the Earth for up to two hours allowing passengers to share their experience via social media and with their fellow Explorers.

  • Thank You, John, and Thank You All for Joining Us This Morning. I Want to Thank the National Press Club for Hosting Us
    STATEMENT FOR CHARLIE BOLDEN NATIONAL PRESS CLUB EVENT Tues., Feb. 2, 2010 Thank you, John, and thank you all for joining us this morning. I want to thank the National Press Club for hosting us. We appreciate this opportunity to share more details with you about the President's plans for NASA and America’s path forward in space. Yesterday, we unveiled President Obama's historic budget that launched NASA on a bold and ambitious effort to explore new worlds, develop more innovative technologies, foster new industries, and increase our understanding of the Earth, our solar system, and the universe. Among the many fresh proposals is an enhanced focus on commercial partnerships. Today we have with us some pioneers in that field who we will be working with, and I'll tell you more about them in a moment. But first, I would like to say how excited we are to have direction from our President to launch a new era of innovation and discovery. Reaching and living in space is complicated, dangerous and full of unknowns. The technology we need to sustain our leadership as a space faring nation is going to take all of our ingenuity,. But the President has now given us resources -- including $6 billion of new funds over the next five years -- for significantly increased technology research and development -- a long term plan to think big… to grow… to imagine and to move us vigorously toward the dreams for tomorrow. Tough budget choices in the past have led to decades of under-investment in space technology development.

    Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, DC 20554 In the Matter of ) ) AM All-Digital Broadcasting ) MB Docket No. 19-311 ) Revitalization of the AM Radio Service ) MB Docket No. 13-249 ) ) ) To: Office of the Secretary Attn: The Commission JOINT COMMENTS OF AM BROADCAST STATION LICENSEES The undersigned radio broadcasters, each a licensee of one or more AM radio stations, in these Joint Comments highly encourage the FCC to adopt the rule changes proposed in this proceeding1 to allow AM broadcasters to broadcast an all-digital signal using the HD Radio in-band on-channel mode known as MA3. These Joint Comments support the rule changes from their perspective as AM broadcasters. The following is submitted: INTRODUCTION - AM BROADCASTING NEEDS TECHNICAL ENHANCEMENTS, NOT REGULATORY RESTRAINTS 1. These Joint Comments support the following: That any AM station that desires can broadcast without further FCC authorization in an all-digital mode using an HD Radio MA3 mode as set out in the NRSC-5-D standard (as opposed to the current hybrid AM analog-digital mode); 1 All-Digital AM Broadcasting, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 34 FCC Rcd 11560 (2019) (“All-Digital AM NPRM”). That AM all-digital operations be allowed both day and night at current power levels. (There are some advocating for a lowering of AM all-digital power because the all-digital signal will cover more area – it is ridiculous to cripple technology just because it is more efficient); That the regulatory procedure for transitioning to AM all-digital be as simple and efficient as the current notification procedure for hybrid AM digital operations; and That any decision by an AM station to operate in an all-digital mode is discretionary and reversible, so that no station is required to operate in an all-digital mode, nor is any station who chooses to do so locked-in to that mode of operation.
