In 2020, Barone announced that he was working on several new games, with one of them set in the Stardew Valley universe. [19] On August 15, 2020, the orchestral album Symphonic Tale: The Place I Truly Belong (Music from Stardew Valley) directed by Kentaro Sato and performed by the Budapest Symphony Orchestra was released. [20]
Stardew Valley was originally titled Sprout Valley and was created by American indie game designer Eric Barone, known professionally as ConcernedApe. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Barone graduated from the University of Washington Tacoma in 2011 with a computer science degree but was unable to get a job in the industry, instead working as an usher at the ...
Iridium compounds are used as catalysts in the Cativa process for carbonylation of methanol to produce acetic acid. [92] [93] Iridium complexes are often active for asymmetric hydrogenation both by traditional hydrogenation. [94] and transfer hydrogenation. [95] This property is the basis of the industrial route to the chiral herbicide (S ...
Bliss, originally titled Bucolic Green Hills, is the default wallpaper of Microsoft's Windows XP operating system. It is a photograph of a green rolling hills and daytime sky with cirrus clouds . Charles O'Rear , a former National Geographic photographer, took the photo in January 1998 near the Napa – Sonoma county line, California, after a ...
Iridium-192 (symbol 192 Ir) is a radioactive isotope of iridium, with a half-life of 73.827 days. [1] It decays by emitting beta (β) particles and gamma (γ) radiation. About 96% of 192 Ir decays occur via emission of β and γ radiation, leading to 192 Pt. Some of the β particles are captured by other 192 Ir nuclei, which are then converted ...
The type locality of this iridium anomaly is near Raton, New Mexico. [1] [2]Iridium is a very rare element in the Earth's crust, but is found in anomalously high concentrations (around 100 times greater than normal) in a thin worldwide layer of clay marking the boundary between the Cretaceous and Paleogene periods, 66 million years ago.
The international prototype of the kilogram (IPK) is an artifact standard of platinum–iridium alloy that was defined as having a mass of exactly one kilogram. Platinum–iridium alloys are alloys of the platinum group precious metals platinum and iridium. Typical alloy proportions are 90:10 or 70:30 (Pt:Ir).
The Iridium system was designed to be accessed by small handheld phones, the size of a cell phone. While "the weight of a typical cell phone in the early 1990s was 10.5 ounces" [6] (300 grams) Advertising Age wrote in mid 1999 that "when its phone debuted, weighing 1 pound (453 grams) and costing $3,000, it was viewed as both unwieldly and expensive."
