The Dark Matter Particle Explorer, or DAMPE, also known as Wukong (Chinese: 悟空), is a Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) satellite which launched on 17 December 2015. [4] The satellite was launched on a Long March 2D rocket from Launch Pad 603 at the LC-43 complex, also known as the South Launch Site , at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center ...
A Journey to the Center of the Earth game for Sega Genesis was planned but never released. [13] A board game adaptation of the book designed by Rüdiger Dorn was released by Kosmos in 2008. [14] Caedmon Records released an abridged recording of Journey to the Center of the Earth read by James Mason, in the 1960s.
The Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE / ˈ k oʊ b i / KOH-bee), also referred to as Explorer 66, was a NASA satellite dedicated to cosmology, which operated from 1989 to 1993.Its goals were to investigate the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB or CMBR) of the universe and provide measurements that would help shape the understanding of the cosmos.
The light seen is approximately the integral of all emission along the line of sight modulated by the optical depth to the viewer (i.e. 1/e times the emission at 1 optical depth, 1/e 2 times the emission at 2 optical depths, etc.). Near the center of the star, optical depth is effectively infinite, causing approximately constant brightness.
Solar spectrum with Fraunhofer lines as it appears visually. In 1802, English chemist William Hyde Wollaston [2] was the first person to note the appearance of a number of dark features in the solar spectrum. [3] In 1814, Joseph von Fraunhofer independently rediscovered the lines and began to systematically study and measure their wavelengths ...
Due to this novel and another two, of the same fantastic type, Plausible Fantasies or a Journey in the 29th Century and A Scene from Private Life in the Year 2028 A.D, Bulgarin was described as the first modern Russian author to write in the genre of utopia, [2] although Bulganin's utopias are predated by the 1784 novel The Travel to the Land ...
A total of 6.8×10 6 positron and electron events were collected in the energy range from 0.5 to 350 GeV. The positron fraction (of the total electron plus positron events) steadily increased from energies of 10 to 250 GeV, but the slope decreased by an order of magnitude above 20 GeV, even though the fraction of positrons still increased.
In May 2009, the film premiered as "Journey to the Center of the Earth 4-D" at Stone Mountain Park in Georgia. [10] It also opened in the motion simulator at Dollywood under the same name on June 12 the same year. [11] It also featured the new 4D Cinema at the Weston Super-Mare Grand Pier in the U.K. and was shown in Movieworld on the Gold Coast.
