  • FNRS 1 Balloon
    Technical Data Sheet 1 FNRS 1 BALLOOn Balloon External diameter : 30 metres Payload : 1000 kg Materials : cotton and rubber Fuel : hydrogen Construction : Riedinger Ballon Fabrik (A), in 1931 The balloon was inflated with hydrogen, since the production of helium was too expensive in 1930. The diameter of the inflated balloon was 30 metres, its volume 14,130 m3. The balloon’s payload was 1000 kg and it was therefore clearly oversized in relation to the load to be carried. Its capacity theoretically enabled it to lift a locomotive! The balloon’s envelope consisted of two layers of cotton bonded by an intermediate layer of rubber. The fabric was dyed yellow (chloramine). This colour absorbs part of the sun’s blue, violet and ultraviolet rays. On take-off the balloon took the shape of a pear. It was only at altitude, when the pressure fell, that the balloon became spherical. Gondola External diameter : 2.10 metres Empty weight : 136 kg Crew : 2 men Endurance : 24 hours Thickness : 3.5 mm Materials : aluminium Portholes : glass Average on board temperature : -2 to + 40°C! Manufacturer of gondola : Georges L’Hoir, Liège (B) Interior equipment : Jacques Destappes, mechanic, Brussels (B) In structural terms, the sphere offers the highest volume for the smallest surface area, and therefore the lowest weight. The 2.10 metre diameter meanwhile, according to Auguste Piccard, is “(…) the smallest dimension in which two observers and a great deal of instrumentation can be accommodated”. The first gondola was painted in two colours. It was thus able to present a light or a dark side to the sun.

    SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN FRONTIERS PROGRAM #1503 "Going Deep" AIRDATE: February 2, 2005 ALAN ALDA Hello and welcome to Scientific American Frontiers. I'm Alan Alda. It's said that the oceans, which cover more than two thirds of the earth's surface, are less familiar to us than the surface of the moon. If you consider the volume of the oceans, it's actually more than ninety percent of the habitable part of the earth that we don't know too much about. The main reason for our relative ignorance is simply that the deep ocean is an absolutely forbidding environment. It's pitch dark, extremely cold and with pressures that are like having a 3,000-foot column of lead pressing down on every square inch -- which does sound pretty uncomfortable. In this program we're going to see how people finally made it to the ocean floor, and we'll find out about the scientific revolutions they brought back with them. We're going to go diving in the Alvin, the little submarine that did so much of the work. And we're going to glimpse the future, as Alvin's successor takes shape in a small seaside town on Cape Cod. That's coming up in tonight's episode, Going Deep. INTO THE DEEP ALAN ALDA (NARRATION) Woods Hole, Massachusetts. It's one of the picturesque seaside towns that draw the tourists to Cape Cod each year. But few seaside towns have what Woods Hole has. For 70 years it's been home to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution — an organization that does nothing but study the world's oceans.

  • Cruising Guide to the Philippines
    Cruising Guide to the Philippines For Yachtsmen By Conant M. Webb Draft of 06/16/09 Webb - Cruising Guide to the Phillippines Page 2 INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world after Indonesia, with around 7,000 islands. Relatively few yachts cruise here, but there seem to be more every year. In most areas it is still rare to run across another yacht. There are pristine coral reefs, turquoise bays and snug anchorages, as well as more metropolitan delights. The Filipino people are very friendly and sometimes embarrassingly hospitable. Their culture is a unique mixture of indigenous, Spanish, Asian and American. Philippine charts are inexpensive and reasonably good. English is widely (although not universally) spoken. The cost of living is very reasonable. This book is intended to meet the particular needs of the cruising yachtsman with a boat in the 10-20 meter range. It supplements (but is not intended to replace) conventional navigational materials, a discussion of which can be found below on page 16. I have tried to make this book accurate, but responsibility for the safety of your vessel and its crew must remain yours alone. CONVENTIONS IN THIS BOOK Coordinates are given for various features to help you find them on a chart, not for uncritical use with GPS. In most cases the position is approximate, and is only given to the nearest whole minute. Where coordinates are expressed more exactly, in decimal minutes or minutes and seconds, the relevant chart is mentioned or WGS 84 is the datum used. See the References section (page 157) for specific details of the chart edition used.

This is a unique and comprehensive summary of world wide development in this field. It is probably not realised what a vital part closed circuit breathing apparatus played in World War II. Apart from escapes from damaged and sunken submarines by means of the DSEA, and the special attacks on ships by human torpedoes and X-craft, including the mortal damage to the "Tirpitz", an important part of the invasion forces were the landing craft obstruction clearance units. These were special teams of frogmen in oxygen breathing sets who placed demolition charges on the formidable underwater obstructions along the north coast of France.

Charting the cross-functional map between transcription factors and cancer metabolism Karin Ortmayr 1, Sébastien Dubuis 1 and Mattia Zampieri 1,* Affiliations: 1 Institute of Molecular Systems Biology, ETH Zurich, Auguste-Piccard-Hof 1, CH-8093 Zurich, Switzerland. *To whom correspondence should be addressed: [email protected] Abstract Transcriptional reprogramming of cellular metabolism is a hallmark feature of cancer. However, a systematic approach to study the role of transcription factors (TFs) in mediating cancer metabolic rewiring is missing. Here, we chart a genome-scale map of TF-metabolite associations in human using a new combined computational-experimental framework for large-scale metabolic profiling of adherent cell lines, and the integration of newly generated intracellular metabolic profiles of 54 cancer cell lines with transcriptomic and proteomic data. We unravel a large space of dependencies between TFs and central metabolic pathways, suggesting that the regulation of carbon metabolism in tumors may be more diverse and flexible than previously appreciated. This map provides an unprecedented resource to predict TFs responsible for metabolic transformation in patient-derived tumor samples, opening new opportunities in designing modulators of oncogenic TFs and in understanding disease etiology. Introduction Transcription factors (TFs) are at the interface between the cell’s ability to sense and respond to external stimuli or changes in internal cell-state1.
