On November 9th of this year, the Large Hadron Collider at CERN will shoot, for the first time, lead bullets at the speed of light against each other in its superconductive, super-fluid cannon attempting to discover the “God particle” or the particle that gives other particles mass (theoretically known as the Higgs boson).

Science & Reason on Facebook: tinyurl.com “The Andromeda Galaxy” with Jane Houston Jones at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. — Please subscribe to Science & Reason: • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com — The Andromeda Galaxy (also known as Messier 31, M31, or NGC 224) is a spiral galaxy approximately 2500000 light-years away in the constellation Andromeda. It is the nearest spiral galaxy to our own, the Milky Way. As it is visible as a faint smudge on a moonless night, it is one of the farthest objects visible to the naked eye, and can be seen even from urban areas with binoculars. It is named after the princess Andromeda (Greek: ????????? Androméd?) in Greek mythology. Andromeda is the largest galaxy of the Local Group, which consists of the Andromeda Galaxy, the Milky Way Galaxy, the Triangulum Galaxy, and about 30 other smaller galaxies. Although the largest, Andromeda may not be the most massive, as recent findings suggest that the Milky Way contains more dark matter and may be the most massive in the grouping. The 2006 observations by the Spitzer Space Telescope revealed that M31 contains one trillion stars, several times more than the number of stars in our own galaxy, which is estimated to be c. 200-400 billion. While the 2006 estimates put the mass of the Milky Way to be ~80% of the mass of Andromeda, which is estimated to be 7.1 × 1011 solar masses, a 2009 study concluded that Andromeda and the Milky …

Erleben Sie hautnah das original Spaceshuttle BURAN in der Raumfahrthalle des TECHNIK MUSEUM SPEYER! Die BURAN war das Ergebnis eines der ehrgeizigsten Projekte in der Geschichte der russischen Raumfahrt. Die gewaltige Raumfähre ist 36 m lang, 16 m hoch und wiegt ca. 80 Tonnen. Die im Museum gezeigte BURAN OK-GLI wurde 1984 gebaut und diente zur Erprobung von Gleitflug und Landung. speyer.technik-museum.de | The spaceshuttle BURAN was the result of one of the most ambitious projects in the history of Russian space flight. The huge shuttle is 36 m long, 16 m high and weights about 80 tons. As was the case of the US model, reusability after near-earth space flights was of major importance. The BURAN prototype OK-GLI shown in the TECHNIK MUSEUM SPEYER was built in 1984 and was used for testing gliding-flight and landing after reentry into the atmosphere. speyer.technik-museum.de
