Apollo 13 was a 1970 Apollo space mission to the moon that suffered a critical failure en route. The three astronauts aboard - James Lovell, Jack Swigert, and Fred Haise - worked with mission control to return safely after an oxygen tank exploded, endangering the spacecraft and crew's survival. The explosion forced the crew to abort their lunar landing and return to Earth earlier than planned, making emergency repairs and using the lunar module as a "lifeboat" to keep the command module's systems functioning well enough for reentry.The Space Race

His spacecraft orbited the Earth at a speed of about 17,000 miles per hour during his 108-minute flight, allowing him to view the Earth in a way never seen before and be the first person to eat and drink in zero gravity. Unfortunately, Gagarin's desire to return to space was made impossible after he died in a 1968 plane crash. In honor of his achievements and status as a national hero, his hometown was renamed Gagarin and the Cosmonaut Training Centre in Russia was named after him.The History of Public Space in Soviet Mass Housing DevelopmentsFuture Faculty

Space exploration involves the discovery of the cosmos through advanced technology and is historically characterized by the Cold War space race between the US and Soviet Union, leading to significant milestones such as the first human in space, Yuri Gagarin, and the Apollo 11 moon landing. Notable missions have included robotic probes studying planets like Venus and Mars, with ongoing missions targeting exploration of planets such as Mercury and Jupiter. The field has shifted from competition to collaboration, exemplified by the International Space Station and ongoing efforts to explore celestial bodies.Women in Space

Special Theory Of RelativityGreenwich Council
油
The document summarizes key aspects of Einstein's special theory of relativity, including:
1) It showed that Newton's ideas of absolute space and time were incorrect and implied that matter and energy are interconvertible.
2) It established two postulates - the laws of physics apply in all inertial frames, and the speed of light is constant in all frames.
3) This leads to effects like time dilation and length contraction, as measurements of space and time differ for observers in different inertial frames moving relative to one another.Special Theory Of Relativity
Special Theory Of RelativityNikhil Sharma
油
The document discusses Albert Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, which established that the laws of physics are the same in all inertial reference frames and that the speed of light in a vacuum is constant. It explains key concepts such as length contraction, time dilation, and mass-energy equivalence that arise from these postulates. Examples are provided to illustrate how observations of phenomena can change depending on the reference frame of the observer.NASA

PEST OF WHEAT SORGHUM BAJRA and MINOR MILLETS.pptxArshad Shaikh
油
Wheat, sorghum, and bajra (pearl millet) are susceptible to various pests that can significantly impact crop yields. Common pests include aphids, stem borers, shoot flies, and armyworms. Aphids feed on plant sap, weakening the plants, while stem borers and shoot flies damage the stems and shoots, leading to dead hearts and reduced growth. Armyworms, on the other hand, are voracious feeders that can cause extensive defoliation and grain damage. Effective management strategies, including resistant varieties, cultural practices, and targeted pesticide applications, are essential to mitigate pest damage and ensure healthy crop production.Wax Moon, Richmond, VA.

Sustainable Innovation with Immersive Learning
Sustainable Innovation with Immersive LearningLeonel Morgado
油
Prof. Leonel and Prof. Dennis approached educational uses, practices, and strategies of using immersion as a lens to interpret, design, and planning educational activities in a sustainable way. Rather than one-off gimmicks, the intent is to enable instructors (and institutions) to be able to include them in their regular activities, including the ability to evaluate and redesign them.
Immersion as a phenomenon enables interpreting pedagogical activities in a learning-agnostic way: you take a stance on the learning theory to follow, and leverage immersion to envision and guide your practice.GEOGRAPHY-Study Material [ Class 10th] .pdf
