In its United Kingdom Tax Bulletin 64 (April 2003), the Inland Revenue (now HM Revenue and Customs) announced new guidance on the "settlements legislation". This is a body of law which seeks to prevent someone (known as the "settlor") from avoiding tax by reclassifying income as belonging to someone else (known as the beneficiary). The income is then taxed at the beneficiary’s lower rate although the settlor continues to benefit from it. The legislation targets spouses and also parents seeking to divert income via their minor children.
The section of the legislation is 660A of the UK Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988. Using the revised (April 2003) interpretation of s.660A, UK HMRC have been targeting businesses set up by spouses where they are aware that income is split between the spouses, and only one of them directly generates that income. In theory s.660A can apply to partnerships as well as limited companies, this has yet to be tested in the UK courts. In 2007 the interpretation was finally rejected by the Law Lords, resulting in the government proposing new leglisation to tackle the perceived abuse.
S-45A was an Americansatellite, which was lost in a launch failure in 1961. The satellite was intended to operate in a highly elliptical orbit, from which it was to have provided data on the shape of the ionosphere, and on the Earth's magnetic field. It was part of the Explorer programme, and would have been designated Explorer 12 had it reached orbit. It was the second of two identical satellites to be launched; the first, S-45, had also been lost in a launch failure, earlier in the year.
S-45A was launched aboard a Juno II rocket, serial number AM-19G. It was the final flight of the Juno II. The launch took place from Launch Complex 26B at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station at 19:48:05 UTC on 24 May 1961. The system which was intended to ignite the second stage malfunctioned, and as a result that stage failed to ignite. The rocket failed to achieve orbit.
The 1N4001 series (or 1N4000 series) is a family of popular 1.0A (ampere) general-purpose siliconrectifierdiodes commonly used in AC adapters for common household appliances. Blocking voltage varies from 50 to 1000 volts. This diode is made in an axial-lead DO-41 plastic package.
The 1N5400 series is a similarly popular series for higher current applications, up to 3A. These diodes are typically available in the larger DO-201AD axial package to dissipate heat better.
Overview
These are fairly low-speed rectifier diodes, being inefficient for square waves of more than 15kHz. The series was second sourced by many manufacturers. The 1N4000 series were in the Motorola Silicon Rectifier Handbook in 1966, as replacements for 1N2609 through 1N2617. The 1N5400 series were announced in Electrical Design News in 1968, along with the now lesser known 1.5A 1N5391 series.
These devices are widely used and recommended.
The table below shows the maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltages of each of the members of the 1N4000 and 1N5400 series.
NASA 515 is a Boeing 737 heavily modified for NASA use as a continuing research facility. The aircraft was the first 737 built and was used by Boeing to qualify the 737 design. NASA 515 was maintained and flown by Langley Research Center as part of the Terminal Area Productivity (TAP) program.
The aircraft is on public display at the Museum of Flight, near Seattle, Washington.

NASA ARSET: New Sensor Highlight: ECOSTRESS, Part 1/1
In ARSET’s first lightning style training, we present new NASA Earth observing technologies that can be used to support resources management. This webinar focused on a NASA instrument that was launched and installed on the International Space Station in Summer 2018. Designed to study terrestrial ecosystems and plant water stress from the ISS, ECOSTRESS can also be used to better understand crop health, volcanoes, urban heat, wildland fires, coastal systems, and much more.
The primary science and applications mission of ECOSTRESS is to address three critical questions around vegetation health and agriculture:
How is the terrestrial biosphere responding to changes in water availability?
How do changes in diurnal vegetation water stress impact the global carbon cycle?

NASA Test Tech Installed on Boeing ecoDemonstrator (TIME LAPSE)
In this time lapse video, technicians install wiring inside, and hundreds of small microphones outside, the Boeing Dreamliner 787 being flown for this year’s ecoDemonstrator Program. The microphones are part of a NASA experiment to collect data on the acoustics generated by the interactions of the wing, tail, landing gear, engines with the fuselage of the vehicle – to get a modern, fresh full “soundscape” of noise generated by the entire aircraft. To complete the acoustics picture, Boeing flew the instrumented aircraft over a ground array of more than 900 microphones to collect data from the ground. NASA will use the date to update software used by the aviation community to predict acoustic levels of future airliner designs.

Eco-Friendly NASA Technology HYPERION XP-1 HYPERCAR
#HYPERIONXP1 #conceptcar #hypercar #supercar #nasatechnology
Hyperion has unveiled its hydrogen hypercar, the XP-1, with bold claims that place it smack in the middle of the performance car race.
The American hydrogen technology firm states that the XP-1 hypercar has been built after 10 years of development. It also adds that over 200 researchers and scientists were involved in testing and research.
Before we get into the design, let us look at the technology used in the car, because that is what sets it apart from the traditional hypercars.
Built using carbon titanium reinforced composite, the car weighs just 1032 kg. When it comes to the propulsion system, it has a proton exchange membrane fuel cell, carbon fibre hydrogen storage systems and ultra-capacitor energy storage technology.

Designed to study terrestrial ecosystems and plant water stress from the ISS, ECOSTRESS can also be used to better understand crop health, volcanoes, urban heat, wildland fires, coastal systems, and much more.
The primary science and applications mission of ECOSTRESS is to address three critical questions around vegetation health and agriculture:
How is the terrestrial biosphere responding to changes in water availability?
How do changes in diurnal vegetation water stress impact the global carbon cycle?
Can agricultural vulnerability be reduced through advanced monitoring of agricultural water consumptive use and improved drought estimation?
Learning Objectives:
By the end of this one-hour introduction, attendees will understand:
what parameters are monitored by ECOSTRESS
how ECOSTRESS measurements are taken, including the spatial and temporal resolution of the data
how to access and download ECOSTRESS data via LPDAAC
case study examples of the use of ECOSTRESS for land management applications
Course Format:
A single, one-hour part that include a lecture and a question & answer session
Prerequisites:
Attendees should be familiar with the fundamentals of remote sensing. Participants without that level of knowledge may not be adequately prepared for all the terms and concepts presented.
Audience:
Local, regional, state, federal, and non-governmental organizations involved in land management, drought monitoring, and agricultural applications
Agenda: This session will cover:
Introduction to ECOSTRESS
Data format, details, variables (resolution, etc.)
ECOSTRESS case study examples
Demonstration: ECOSTRESS data access via LPDAAC and AppEEARS
