Description:
On April 26, 1962, Britain launched its first satellite, Ariel 1.<br/><br/>This made the United Kingdom the third country to have a satellite in orbit after the U.S. and the Soviet Union — but they didn't launch it themselves. Ariel 1 launched on an American Thor-Delta rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. It was also built at Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland. Britain's Science and Engineering Research Council provided all of the experiments. Five of the six experiments on board studied the relationship between solar radiation and Earth's ionosphere, and one was dedicated to studying cosmic rays. Just 10 weeks after Ariel 1 launched, it was damaged by an explosion during a high-altitude nuclear test conducted by the U.S. military. Its solar panels broke, and it was unable to transmit any more useful data after that.

_mazda-cx-5-touring-petrol-awd-in-eternal-blue-connect-screen.webp "Mazda’s iconic “World Car Design of the Year”-winning roadster has evolved over the years, yet always remained true to the Jinba Ittai philosophy of creating perfect harmony between driver and car. The MX-5, a timeless masterpiece – refined by Mazda’s craftsmen over four generations of customer feedback – celebrates its 35th birthday in 2024. With over 1.1 million units sold, the community of MX-5 enthusiasts continues to grow.<br/>With the 2024 MX-51 Mazda further reinforces the Jinba Ittai ethos by introducing DSC-Track, a new Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) mode optimised for circuit driving, and a newly developed Asymmetric Limited Slip Differential (Asymmetric LSD).<br/><br/>DSC-Track prioritises driver safety by implementing over-steer control in hazardous spins that the driver is unable to correct. DSC-Track allows the driver to remain in control until the very last second, only then it will intervene. The Asymmetric Limited Slip Differential (Asymmetric LSD) stabilises vehicle turn-in behaviour. In particular, bolstering the slip-limiting force during deceleration improves stability when braking into a turn, where reduced rear wheel ground load leads to vehicle instability. Optimizing slip limiting force and preload specifically for the MX-5's engine, suspension, and tyre characteristics results in smoother and more linear turning performance. Turning stability has thus been enhanced to make manoeuvring easier in urban areas, as well as on winding roads.<br/>The 2024 Mazda MX-5 features advanced LED headlights that now seamlessly combine with the daytime running lights. Furthermore, the rear lights have undergone subtle revisions, and LEDs are now used also on the turn signals. The exterior changes are complete with a new paint option, \")
_39star-wars-the-bad-batchs39-michelle-ang-opens-up-about-omegas-evolution-in-season-3-offers-advice-if-the-character-is.webp "When Clone Force 99, a.k.a. The Bad Batch, scored their own spinoff after being introduced early on in Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season 7, they were joined by Omega, a female clone of Jango Fett who, like Boba Fett, ages at a normal rate. Omega’s come a long way during her time with Hunter, Wrecker, Echo and the late Tech, and with Star Wars: The Bad Batch’s third and final season about to begin, Michelle Ang, who voices Omega, opened up to CinemaBlend about the young character’s evolution in Season 3. Additionally, if Omega is ever played in live-action, Ang provided some advice to the hypothetical actress who’d take over the role.<br/><br/>During my chat with Ang, I pointed out how in The Bad Batch Season 1, Omega was a sheltered child who was finally got to experience freedom for the first time when the title group took her off Kamino and brought her along on their travels. Then in Season 2, we watched Omega become a capable soldier who could handle herself in the field much better. So regarding Season 3, I asked the actress what she thinks is the biggest way Omega has evolved for this new batch (pardon the pun) of episodes.")
