Throughout my entire life, there was one thing that truly amazed me more than anything else, space. Most people become amazed by space as a kid and just lose interest, this was not my case. Some nights I would spend hours standing in my backyard with my high powered telescope finding anything I could. I've spent countless amounts of time and money building, painting and flying model rockets as tall as 5 feet. I’ve wanted to help out with space exploration so much that I came to college with Aerospace

I Spy With My Little Eye Hook: Do you think it is right for our government to be able to spy on us? Background: During both World War 1 and World War 2, the US, along with other countries, used espionage and different covert tactics to gather information about the enemy/foreign countries (their governments) and to continue to provide protection for all the citizens of the United States. American’s today should be aware of this because 1.the United States government still uses espionage today

INTRODUCTION:- Definition of a glider:- A glider is a aircraft that is supported in flight by the dynamic reaction of the air against its lifting surfaces, and whose free flight does not depend on an engine. Working of a glider:- The wings on a glider have to produce enough lift to balance the weight of the glider. The faster the glider goes the more lift the wings make. If the glider flies fast enough the wings will produce enough lift to keep it in the air. But, the wings and the body of the

New air technologies in the early mid-twentieth century had played major roles in war. The United States air forces were rapidly evolving between World War I and World War II. Aircraft structures and weapons developed along with the manufacture of new systems and devices. The United States Air Force made technological advancements in aviation, including weaponry, aircraft structure, and navigation, during the World Wars (1914-1945). Most strategists during the First World War saw no military

The year of 1939 is considered the start of the Second World War with the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany. Following this event there were numerous battle encounters that played significant roles in the outcome of the war. These battles were not all one sided, both the Allies and the Axis Powers left their impression on history with their efforts. There is one battle towards the end of the war however, one that is renown and praised by many. The Invasion of Normandy, or better known as D-Day,

("Columbia disaster"). Subsequently, major changes were made to the space program, particularly in spacecraft safety (Moskowitz "How the Columbia Shuttle Disaster Changed Spacecraft Safety Forever"). They added new practices and new rules for space crafts to be conditioned for space (Moskowitz "How the Columbia Shuttle Disaster Changed Spacecraft Safety Forever"). One of the biggest consequences of this was the space shuttle program being grounded for more than 2 years (Dooling, "Columbia disaster")

three Multiple Gun Motor Carriages. The M3 chassis, however, would later be replaced in 1944 by the M5 chassis as a result of advancing technology. The M13, Multiple Gun Motor Carriage, was the first anti-air craft gun system deployed during World War II to help with the defending of Landing at Anzio. The M13 was replaced within a quick three month period by the M16, Multiple Gun Motor Carriage. The Halftrack consisted of a truck-like appearance in the front with an open bed in the back. The open

to a comparative study by Richard Overy, about two-thirds of all Allied military equipment produced during the war was provided by American industry. Companies that would normally produce everyday vehicles (such as automobiles) began to manufacture tanks and aircrafts. Although no battles were fought on the mainland, the war still heavily affected all ways of American life. It heavily affected political, economica, and corporate industry. One of the many industries that were radically changed by

In the late 1930’s, three young men, Frank Malina, Jack Parsons, and Ed Forman formed a group on the Caltech campus in Pasadena, California known by students as the Suicide Squad, for their crazy and often life-threatening engineering antics; but as tensions heated up in Europe, the men’s experiments began to seem less wild to the US government: in 1939, they were awarded $1,000 to conduct research into the development of a rocket plane for use in combat. With the money, the men hired two of their

problems. The major problem was the choppy seas and the strong current. It made many of the allied forces land off of target. Even though they landed off course they were still able come together. The Germans also put many obstacles in the way of the landing crafts.
