  2. Messier 69 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messier_69

    Messier 69 or M69, also known NGC 6637, and NGC 6634, [9] [10] is a globular cluster in the southern constellation of Sagittarius. [a] It can be found 2.5° to the northeast of the star Epsilon Sagittarii and is dimly visible in 50 mm aperture binoculars. The cluster was discovered by Charles Messier on August 31, 1780, the same night he ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_Cluster

    The Butterfly Cluster (cataloged as Messier 6 or M6, and as NGC 6405) is an open cluster of stars in the southern constellation of Scorpius. Its name derives from the resemblance of its shape to a butterfly. [5] The first astronomer to record the Butterfly Cluster's existence was Giovanni Battista Hodierna in 1654. [6]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_controller

    A motor controller is a device or group of devices that can coordinate in a predetermined manner the performance of an electric motor. [1] A motor controller might include a manual or automatic means for starting and stopping the motor, selecting forward or reverse rotation, selecting and regulating the speed, regulating or limiting the torque, and protecting against overloads and electrical ...

    Messier 71 (also known as M71, NGC 6838, or the Angelfish Cluster) is a globular cluster in the small northern constellation Sagitta. It was discovered by Philippe Loys de Chéseaux in 1745 and included by Charles Messier in his catalog of non- comet -like objects in 1780.

  8. Messier 60 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messier_60

    Messier 60 was the fastest-moving galaxy included in Edwin Hubble's landmark 1929 paper concerning the relationship between recession speed and distance. [19] He used a value of 1090 km/s for the recession speed, 1.8% less than the more recent value of about 1110 km/s (based on a redshift of 0.003726).

  9. Electronic speed control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_speed_control

    An electronic speed control follows a speed reference signal (derived from a throttle lever, joystick, or other manual input) and varies the switching rate of a network of field effect transistors (FETs). [1] By adjusting the duty cycle or switching frequency of the transistors, the speed of the motor is changed. The rapid switching of the ...
