10 satellite disasters the world has ever known

Since 1961, during the last 43 years, the world has witnessed 10 satellite disaster, which killed 18 astronaut, and about 12 others, were killed during the exercises or tests.

In March of 1961, before the start of any manned missions to the space of about a month, was the first astronaut to lose his life is the Soviet Valentin Bondarenko, who died burned when a fire broke out during his experiments.

In April 1961 the conquest of space began, but in July of the same year, resulting in a technical malfunction in the space capsule "Liberty Bell 7" special program "NASA" space, to the fullness with water and sank in the Atlantic Ocean, and almost the process kills the experimental pilot Gus Grissom.

In October 1964, when the navigator Theodore Freeman was forced to launch himself from training aircraft after colliding with the front window was a bird killed during the first American space flight training, but he was close to the ground and died.

In March 1965, during the first experience to walk in outer space, swelled wetsuit Soviet cosmonaut Aleksei Leonov to the degree that he was unable to return to the vehicle, "Fosgud 2", and after leaving room for air to leak from the suit, and to reduce the pressure inside, barely able to enter the the vehicle was forced later to fall in place hundreds of miles away from the site of the decision, and the crew spent the night outside the vehicle at a temperature too low.

In January 1967, the crew vehicle, "Apollo 1" Three Gus Grissom and Edward White and Roger Chaffee were killed during training boot space flight was scheduled for the following month.

In April of the same year, Soviet cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov was killed, navigator vehicle "Soyuz 1" when it crashed during the cockpit crashed into the ground after the failure of the launch of the parachute during landing.

After 3 years, ie, in April 1970, the oxygen tank explosion in the vehicle, "Apollo 13" led to the abandonment of astronauts to complete their mission to the moon, and forced astronauts Jim Lovell and Jack Soegrt and Fred Haise to work under limited energy and low-grade heat and lack of water and low air level, and remained on this case 4 days before you can "NASA" from being returned to the ground safely.

In June 1971, astronauts Soviets died, the crew vehicle "Soyuz 11", Georgi Dobrovolsky, Victor Batsayev and Vladislav Volkov due to suffocation and lack of oxygen after through the valve led to the initiation of a sudden moments after the separation of the lander on the Soviet space station "Salyut 1".

In January 1986, seven American astronauts were killed 37 seconds after the launch of the space shuttle "Challenger".

In February 2003, seven other pioneers of space, including an Israeli, crash space "Columbia" shuttle killed returning from distant space and entering the airspace of the land.

Capture the clearest picture to form planets around a star

Pick up the space scientists the clearest picture ever, a group of planets forming around a star, may help in understanding how the Earth is more than 4 billion a year ago.

At the center of the picture, "DHL Tauri" appears, which is less than a million-year-old star is not much different in composition from the sun, surrounded by flaming circles of ash and gases, and in those circles are no dark rings, each representing one of which orbits the future of the planet.

Image has been captured by the large Alumblymitri Atacama Observatory (Alma) north of Chile fact, scientists say that this picture will be a wide step on the road to uncover the secrets of the emergence of the planets.

Said Catherine Vllaghakis Observatory scientist: "When we saw the picture for the first time, we were stunned by how much detail it. Tauri star DHL has not yet reached the age of a million a year. Although it seems planets rotating disk is full."

Said Tim de Zeeuw, Director General of the European Southern Observatory, said that such a high-quality image "can help us understand how the Earth was formed more than 4 billion a year."

It is noteworthy that the star "El HP Tauri" away from the distance of the Earth 450 light-years away, while the surrounding circles circumference 3 times the orbit of the planet Neptune, another large planets in the solar system.

Left three astronauts from the International Space Station aboard a Russian Soyuz spacecraft Sunday after a journey that lasted five and a half months.

He is scheduled to touch down in the vehicle state frigid steppes of Kazakhstan at 0358 GMT Monday.

Said astronaut Aviation Administration and Space Administration "NASA" Reid Wiseman, during the handover ceremony Saturday broadcast on NASA television station: "It is an honor for me to spend 165 days here .. I look forward to return home."

And associated Wiseman on the return trip to the land of the station commander ended a Soraev Maxime, a Russian space agency, and German flight engineer Alexander Gerst, from the European Space Agency.

The three astronauts set off together on their journey to space on board the vehicle itself in the twenty-eighth of last May.

ISS remained 3 astronauts, including the new commander Barry Wilmore from NASA, and Russians Alexander Samokotaev and Serova us.

Space Station, which orbits the earth away from about 418 kilometers, a research lab amounted to $ 100 billion cost and is owned and operated by the 15-nation

Russian scientist revealed about the success of Russian astronauts in the cultivation of many agricultural crops of superior quality on board the International Space Station , including peas , wheat and some vegetables and fruits , according to the news agency " Novosti " .

Announced scientist Margarita Avenskyk intention Russian scientists grow more next year , including rice , tomatoes , after the completion of the Arboretum "Lada " on the International Space Station , which is the result of a collaboration with the Institute of Space at the University of Utah, U.S. , during a news conference in Moscow.

The researchers are currently working on an analysis of the Russian roots of these plants to ensure their safety and not formed any risk to human health .

It is noteworthy that agriculture in space is one of the most important areas that received much attention from astronomers because of the multiplicity of benefits for astronauts , as they absorb what comes out of them from carbon dioxide during respiration , and also provide the types of food may be in need.

May be one of the observers of what is happening in the world of the search for life in the universe , but that were not well let me enumerate you some different ways in which the scientists looking for life, so before you start answer the question posed in the title.

There is no doubt that the research methods in this matter very numerous , there are observatories used by the Foundation " SEI ATI " "SETI" to pick up signals coming from space that could be intelligent civilizations . There are also looking for microbes on Mars , duration spacecraft that were sent to search for life there are multiple , and the last one was sent to Mars is a composite " Curaossite " They now roam on the surface of the Red Planet in search of any evidence for the existence of life .

In addition there is also a search using the telescope Kepler - accompanied by several telescopes other - for Earth-like planets , then the telescope revealed more than a thousand planet in the totals asterisk , indicated by the presence of more than sixty billion a planet similar to Earth - statistically - in our galaxy only .

This research in its infancy , but scientists did not find yet any radio signal sent from the planet has intelligent civilization , or any evidence of microbial life on any planet , not even the discovery of a planet and one identical to the ground completely .

And now we wonder , what makes scientists believe that there is life outside Earth , even though they did not find any evidence of its existence until now? Is the search for life based on a hunch or a guess ? The search for them or due to scientific reason and logical makes scientists expect its presence in the universe ? This enthusiasm that caused them to divert billions of money in order to get the answer depends Allam ?

Of course, the scientists were not to look for life is that the scientific evidence does not indicate it, but do not reveal science facts of life on Earth , scientists would not have dared to put forward such a hypothesis : the hypothesis of the existence of extraterrestrial life .

I think a lot of people in ancient times that the Earth is the center of the universe , and that the heavenly bodies revolve around, but " Galileo Galilei ," the heart of those scales and disarm the Earth from its position , to make it a crime just like any other nearby celestial bodies that revolve around the sun . It is the loss of a central earth moved scientists and philosophers to believe the existence of other planets may contain life .

With the passage of time and the discovery of the solar system in ways that accurately moved exploration to search for Earth-like planets in the Milky Way , exploded the number of planets suddenly , and after that the sky was full of stars only , has become the number of planets as a whole equal to the number of stars, which are thought to prepare as much as 300 billion stars in our galaxy .

The biological life , it has turned its centrality upside down after he revealed Darwin's secrets , and after more than 150 years on the theory of evolution , which show how the evolving organisms by natural selection is no longer for the animals any centralized in the universe , but the natural biological processes are the basis of all diversity The differences we see today .

And when they take an inside look at the world of life to find out the details , we find that life is made up of chemical compositions and molecules , " said de any " complex , and all of these compositions consist of atoms , and these atoms but are present in the earth , and the earth come from exploding stars , respectively .

And how beautiful what the cosmologist and physicist " Lawrence Krwas " to describe this relationship : but your right hand consisted of atoms blown explosion of a star and your left hand consisted of atoms exploding star last . Each of these complex structures , but it is rooted to the stars , there was the approximately 300 billion stars in the Milky Way , is it possible to be a dim blue Earth in the vast universe is stable only for life ?

As for the origin of starting life for he returns to water , water is the focal point and essential in the formation of primitive organisms on Earth , and then evolved into different forms after that , until the water is no longer the Earth is the center custodial him alone , scientists have discovered meteorites and asteroids , which contain huge amounts thereof , may be responsible for pollination hemisphere ample quantities of water to form oceans as a whole, but there a belt full of enormous asteroids that it saturated .

A few days ago , scientists discovered that the asteroid Ceres "Ceres" contains a quantity of water equivalent to those that cover the entire globe sailor , despite the fact that the asteroid diameter smaller than the diameter of the Earth six times .

Now step back and ask , why not have a life outside of Earth ? Why not? Every sign indicates that the raw materials that make up the objects in the earth exist in all parts of the universe , and the components of these exist in abundance there , and kitchens career in the universe is working day and night in the manufacture of that life , including what works , including what fails , some of which is very hot , some of which is very cool , both of which are not allowed to life ( as life on earth ) to emerge , but some may be able to , it's those planets moderation , and it would be no life , perhaps with differences in forms and manifestations .

Therefore scientists looking for life , this is not an arbitrary or random search , but that he had discussed based on sound science and logic , and when the day comes where scientists discover extraterrestrial life would be a surprising day today , despite all expectations to its existence there .

It seems just a point .. But it is not like any other flash in deep space .. That the planet as it seems from a distance of 100 million miles.

And published by the Aviation and Space Agency of America " NASA " , on Thursday, Google Earth , taken by the probe " Curjoosta " It is perched on the surface of the Red Planet , six days before the " Twitter " with the message " See wonderingly .. Picture the first to land on the surface of Mars . "

According to the " CNN Arabic ," the probe has launched departing Earth on board the spacecraft in Novmbraam 2011, and after a journey that took almost nine months , cut the 352 million miles, landed " Curjoosta " on the surface of the Red Planet in peace , without affected 17 camera attached and scientific instruments on board , and began to send the captured images to the ground, the first time that gives the scientific laboratory in the project, which will cost 2.6 billion dollars , images of our planet .

She continued , " NASA " : " any headmaster of people standing on the surface of Mars , they can see the Earth and the Moon Kenjmin prominent luminaries .

Barchaouiat meteor above the castle Albraichetsberg

Albrchetsberg Castle, which was built in the Middle Ages among the trees near the bank of the river Baillah (Pielach) Austrian city of Melk. And appear under clear night skies in the August 12, Pkkbadtha northern summer that includes both punishment constellation, Aquarius and dim constellation dolphin and small (above right center) in this heavenly scene west. Captures the scene as well as a brilliant Shehab over the castle walls back to burst Barchaouiat the annual Chehabism, where tracks indicate the direction of the constellation hero Brchaos or Algol holder high above the horizon in the early hours of the morning.
