Model C stellarator. The Model C stellarator was the first large-scale stellarator to be built, during the early stages of fusion power research. Planned since 1952, construction began in 1961 at what is today the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL). [1] The Model C followed the table-top sized Model A, and a series of Model B machines ...
Development history. On January 7, 1927, the Cierva C.6C was flying at 30 m (98 ft), when one of its blades detached from the hub. The autogyro began to descend vertically at almost normal speed for autorotation. At 6 m (20 ft) from the ground, a second rotor blade came off. The pilot Courtney was fortunately only slightly bruised.
In Chopin's case, at least four latter-day catalogues vie for prominence: Maurice J. E. Brown (B numbers); Krystyna Kobylańska (KK numbers); Józef Michał Chomiński, whose catalogue is segmented into six parts, each part utilising a different letter (A, C, D, E, P and S); and Chopin National Edition WN numbers.

3.5 km (2.2 mi) [ 1] The Krupp C64 (sometimes C/64) steel, breech loaded field gun was one of the main artillery pieces of the Prussians in the 1870–1871 war with France. It was superior to the French counterparts in every way: accuracy, rate of fire, range and reliability of the fuse. The guns were, however, unpopular with artillery ...
Crowds booed as a new Banksy artwork of a stretching cat on an empty, distressed billboard in north-west London was taken down just hours after being revealed. The street artist posted a photo of ...
Cierva C.1. The Cierva C.1 was an experimental autogyro built by Juan de la Cierva in Spain in 1920, the forerunner of his successful series of autogyros. The C.1 was created by taking the fuselage from a Deperdussin fixed-wing aircraft and mounting two rotors shaft above it. [1] This shaft carried two coaxial contra-rotating rotors, and atop ...
