Ďakujeme. Spolupracovník Postoja Michal Novota a redaktor Lukáš Krivošík sa v ďalšej časti relácie Destinácia vesmír rozprávajú o aktuálnych udalostiach i kapitolách z histórie kozmického výskumu. V rámci aktualít sa pozriem na raketu New Glenn a misiu Escapade. Pozrieme sa na dve pôsobivé fotky, vzťahujúce sa k Tatrám. Pripomíname si tiež 25 rokov Medzinárodnej vesmírnej stanice (ISS). Na čínskej orbitálnej stanici si taikonauti piekli v teplovzdušnej trúbe. SpaceX ukázal ako bude vyzerať ďalší Starship znútra. Udivuje najmä množstvom voľného priestoru. V rámci historickej témy sa pozrieme na lety Apollo 8 až 10. Predchádzali pristátiu Američanov na Mesiaci. Cieľom NASA bolo obletieť Mesiac a vyskúšať systémy, ktoré mali zabezpečiť bezpečné pristátie a návrat astronautov. Zvlášť Apollo 8 na Vianoce 1968 posilnilo vieru Američanov v náročnej dobe. Apollo 10 zase vypustilo do éteru vulgárnu nadávku jedného z astronautov.

Vanessa, ce matin on s'envole dans la Gard pour vivre une expérience insolite … … Magique ! vous faites bien d'employer le mot s'envoler, on part véritablement voler. Une expérience unique au monde. Doublement magique grâce au lieu : ca se passe dans une grotte immense : 120 mètres de long, 80 de large et 40 mètres de plafond ! Cette grotte de la salamandre, elle se situe au nord du Gard. Pourquoi ce nom ? Quand les spéléologues explorent la cavité en 1965, ils descendent en rappel et se retrouvent en bas nez a nez avec une salamandre. Vous pouvez vous aussi la descendre en rappel : vous êtes encadrés par un moniteur, vous descendez 20 mètres dans le puits d'accès puis 30 dans le vide. Belle émotion pour la découvrir, mais moi je préfère la ressentir en m'élevant. Je m'explique : en Mr tournesol de génie, Jean-Pierre David a créé une sorte d'énorme libellule pour voler, planer au-dessus au-dessus des géants de cristal, les stalagmites, en toute sécurité. Une sorte de libellule ? Un aéroplume, un dirigeable gonflé à l'hélium :10 m de long et 5 de haut que vous manœuvrez seul. La seule condition : faire entre 40 et 80 kg. J'étais juste... Vous vous glissez dans le harnais fixé sous le ballon, vous enfilez vos bras dans des ailes. Et la c'est parti, vous êtes un plumonaute, vous nagez la brasse mais dans les airs. Vous volez Comme Icare. Mais pour éviter de vous brûler les ailes, un aerodriver explique comment vous mouvoir. Et si besoin, il vous remet dans l'axe avec un filin. C'est incroyable. Et on n'a pas le vertige, car aucune partie de votre corps ne touche terre. Le vol coute 80 euros et vous pouvez même le réserver pour en faire cadeau. Et cette partie du Gard vaut le détour ? Oui vous êtes entourés de 4 superbes villages de caractère : Lussan, Barjac, Montclus Aigueze. ,Et puis j'ai déniché LA maison d'hôtes : La Parenthèse à Laval-Saint-Roman : Ariane et Arnaud, les hôtes sont vraiment géniaux !

Méthode de conservation bien connue dans les campagnes alpines et les vallées depuis des siècles, les tomes servaient avant tout à constituer des réserves pour l'hiver. Pâte pressée, la tome vient du dialecte toma qui signifie fromage fabriqué en alpages. La tome au foin : issue d'une méthode de conservation des fromages dans le foin pour les protéger de l'humidité. Le foin, en séchant dégageait des arômes qui imprégnaient le fromage et le parfumaient.  Une autre tome originale est celle que l'on trouve dans les Alpes et associe une plante bien connue là-bas, le Génépi. On enveloppe la tome dans ces plantes qui vont aussi parfumer le fromage. Vous pouvez l'utiliser pour réaliser, non pas un gratin dauphinois (qui ne contient pas de fromage), mais un gratin alpin / pommes de terre, crème fraiche et tome. On peut aussi la faire fondre sur un morceau de pain et y ajouter un filet de miel et quelques noix concassées. Cheese and wine week : partout en France, mais aussi à NY, Londres où Bruxelles / Du 3 au 23 nov / l'occasion aussi de (re)découvrir les vins de Savoie, parfait avec la tome / le fameux Chignin-Bergeron, produit avec de la Roussanne / Un vin ample, mais aussi très droit qui fait merveille avec les to Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Moon Rock Challenges Lunar History: A tiny moon rock collected by Apollo 17, sample 76535, is revolutionizing our understanding of the Moon's early history. New simulations suggest it formed deep within the Moon's crust and rose to the surface 4.25 billion years ago through a gentle process rather than a violent impact. This finding indicates that the Moon's large impact basins could be 300 million years older than previously thought, prompting a reevaluation of the heavy bombardment period that shaped early planetary conditions.Blue Origin's New Glenn Rocket Launch: Blue Origin is preparing for the second launch of its New Glenn rocket, targeting mid-October. The mission will carry NASA's Escapade satellites, designed to study Mars's magnetosphere. This marks a significant milestone for commercial space as NASA increasingly relies on private companies for critical planetary exploration.Orionid Meteor Shower Peaks Soon: The annual Orionid meteor shower is set to peak between October 20th and 23rd. Originating from Halley's Comet, these meteors can be seen without a telescope and are known for their speed and bright fireballs. With the new moon on October 22, viewing conditions will be optimal.James Webb Telescope's Stunning Images: The James Webb Space Telescope has captured breathtaking images of Sagittarius B2, the most massive star-forming cloud in the Milky Way. Webb's observations reveal intricate structures and young stars, providing insights into star formation under extreme conditions near a supermassive black hole, and enhancing our understanding of potential habitable environments.For more cosmic updates, visit our website at astronomydaily.io.

Vanessa on part dans le Lot pour la 37 ème édition des Montgolfiades ce week-end Oui,ça va être un parenthèse suspendue, une séance de cinéma en plein air : des centaines de montgolfières vont flotter dans le ciel au-dessus de Rocamadour. Ce rendez-vous est devenu incontournable.Cette tradition on la doit aux américains. Ce sont eux qui ont fait voler pour la première fois une montgolfière du pied de Rocamadour pour le tournage d'un film d'animation destiné à Disneyland. Alors pour en prendre plein la vue, avoir la plus belle vue, et la plus belle photo sans l'aide de l'IA, LE meilleur spot selon moi, ce sont Les remparts du château. Il coiffe Rocamadour. Ce qui fait que vous êtes au plus, à 70 mètres au-dessus du sanctuaire : La vue sur la vallée est sensationnelle Rocamadour est en effet connu pour son sanctuaire depuis des siècles Rocamadour c'est une vieille cité médiévale qui a résisté aux guerres de religion. Ce qu'elle a de fascinant, c'est qu'elle a été construite en escalier à flanc de falaise : on dirait une pièce montée : les maisons, les toits, les églises et le château se superposent ! Et puis en effet son sanctuaire, ses 7 chapelles en ont fait un haut lieu de pèlerinage depuis plus de 1000 ans. Et ce serait à Amadour, identifié comme Zachée-le collecteur d'impôts de Jéricho converti par le Christ, que l'on devrait Rocamadour. Il serait venu évangéliser la Gaule et aurait débarqué sur les rives du Medoc. Fondé le 1er sanctuaire marial de France à Soulac, avant de marcher vers les falaises du Quercy, et vivre en ermite dans une grotte. Et si je vous raconte ça c'est qu'il existe un nouvel itinéraire Le Chemin d'Amadour. Il relie la Gironde à Rocamadour. Une marche en pleine nature, vous traversez les vignobles du Bordelais, de Bergerac, les bastides médiévales… 600 km / 21 étapes. Une bonne vingtaine de jours de marche … une marche qui peut aussi être spirituelle Et si on a envie de ses poser après toutes ces marches, vous avez une adresse à nous suggérer ? La maison Borreze en plein cœur de Souillac,à coté de Rocamadour Une maison de famille magnifiquement transformée en hôtel contemporain. Et On s'y sent bien. Particulièrement dans le salon Bibliothèque… Fiche Pratique : La 37 eme édition des Montgolfiades : Accès libre et gratuit pour tous – parkings gratuits disponibles Réservation baptême de l'air en montgolfière sur rocamadour-montgolfieres.fr Office du tourisme de la Vallée de la Dordogne vallee-dordogne.com Hébergement : La maison Borreze : https://maisonborreze.com/fr   LES MOULES C'est la saison !

One of the more successful imports in the 60s and 70s was The Avengers.  An American version was bound to happen, and it did from the genius that was Quinn Martin.  The leads were played by a name mentioned on this podcast a bit the last few weeks, Granville Van Dusen, and Morgan Fairchild.  CBS took a pass, but the Avengers franchise (non-MCU version) lives on to this day.

recent Koningsdag festival.Nl: De lucht was gevuld met de geur van frisse bloemen, gemengd met geurige stroopwafels van een nabijgelegen kraampje.En: The air was filled with the scent of fresh flowers, mingled with the fragrant stroopwafels from a nearby stall.Nl: Talloze mensen genoten van de warmte, zittend op de terrassen van uitnodigende cafés.En: Countless people enjoyed the warmth, sitting on the terraces of inviting cafés.Nl: Te midden van dit levendige tafereel bevond zich een groep leerlingen van de middelbare school.En: Amidst this lively scene was a group of high school students.Nl: Ze waren op excursie naar Amsterdam om meer te leren over de culturele schatten die de stad te bieden had.En: They were on an excursion to Amsterdam to learn more about the cultural treasures the city had to offer.Nl: Maarten, een nieuwsgierige tiener met een ongekend verlangen naar avontuur, stond naast Sanne, zijn beste vriendin.En: Maarten, a curious teenager with an unyielding desire for adventure, stood next to Sanne, his best friend.Nl: Sanne hield liever de groep en het handboek nauwlettend in de gaten.En: Sanne preferred to keep a close eye on the group and the handbook.Nl: "Moet je kijken, Sanne," zei Maarten opgewonden, terwijl hij naar een hoek van het plein wees waar straatartiesten een kleine menigte aantrokken.En: "Look, Sanne," said Maarten excitedly, pointing to a corner of the square where street performers were attracting a small crowd.Nl: Zijn ogen schitterden van opwinding.En: His eyes sparkled with excitement.Nl: "Daar moeten we naar toe!"En: "We have to go there!"Nl: Sanne beet op haar lip.En: Sanne bit her lip.Nl: "De leraar zei dat we bij de groep moesten blijven, Maarten."En: "The teacher said we have to stay with the group, Maarten."Nl: "Kom op, het is maar voor even," drong Maarten aan.En: "Come on, it's just for a little while," Maarten urged.Nl: "We raken niet ver weg.En: "We won't go far.Nl: Ik beloof het."En:

leerlingen.En: The teachers were busy explaining the city's history to a few other students.Nl: "Oké, heel even dan," gaf ze toe, enigszins nerveus.En: "Okay, just for a bit," she conceded, somewhat nervously.Nl: Zodra ze zich van de groep hadden losgemaakt, voelden ze de bruisende energie van het plein hun aandacht trekken.En: Once they had broken away from the group, they felt the bustling energy of the square draw their attention.Nl: De straatartiesten waren een adembenemende sensatie, en Maarten en Sanne lachten hardop toen een clown een oranje ballon in de vorm van een tulp boog.En: The street performers were a breathtaking sensation, and Maarten and Sanne laughed out loud when a clown twisted an orange balloon into the shape of a tulip.Nl: De stemming veranderde echter toen ze verder liepen.En: However, the mood changed as they walked further.Nl: De menigte werd dichter en het geluid van muziek vermengde zich met het geroezemoes van lachende mensen.En: The crowd got denser and the sound of music mixed with the murmur of laughing people.Nl: Sanne's ogen werden groot van schrik.En: Sanne's eyes widened in shock.Nl: "Maarten, misschien moeten we teruggaan."En: "Maarten, maybe we should go back."Nl: Maar tot hun schrik zagen ze geen trein van hun groep.En: But to their dismay, they couldn't see their group's trail.Nl: Paniek nam even de overhand toen ze zich realiseerden dat ze verdwaald waren.En: Panic briefly took over when they realized they were lost.Nl: "Wat nu?"En: "What now?"Nl: vroeg Sanne gespannen.En: Sanne asked tensely.Nl: Maarten slikte.En: Maarten swallowed.Nl: Zijn avontuur had een onverwachte wending genomen.En: His adventure had taken an unexpected turn.Nl: Maar net toen de spanning hun vreugde leek te bederven, herinnerde hij zich iets.En: But just as the tension threatened to spoil their joy, he remembered something.Nl: "De gids vertelde dat we bij het begin moesten verzamelen als iemand verdwaald raakt."En: "The guide said we should meet at the beginning if anyone gets lost."Nl: Bij "het begin" blokkeerden de leraren de ingang van een klein museum.En: At "the beginning," the teachers stood blocking the entrance to a small museum.Nl: Met vaste passen en een bonzend hart liepen Maarten en Sanne terug door de mensenmassa.En: With determined steps and pounding hearts, Maarten and Sanne walked back through the crowd.Nl: Uiteindelijk zagen ze hun klas en ze voelden een golf van opluchting toen ze herenigd waren.En: Finally, they saw their class and felt a wave of relief as they were reunited.Nl: "Waar waren jullie?"En: "Where were you?"Nl: vroeg de leraar met gefronste wenkbrauwen.En: asked the teacher with furrowed brows.Nl: "We raakten even afgeleid," gaf Maarten eerlijk toe.En: "We got a bit distracted," Maarten admitted honestly.Nl: Sanne knikte instemmend.En: Sanne nodded in agreement.Nl: "Het was maar voor een kort avontuur."En: "It was just a short adventure."Nl: De leraar glimlachte toen hij de sporen van hun opwinding opmerkte.En: The teacher smiled as he noticed traces of their excitement.Nl: "Gelukkig dat jullie de weg terug hebben gevonden.En: "Glad you found your way back.Nl: Nu, zullen we verdergaan?En: Now, shall we continue?Nl: Er is meer te ontdekken."En: There's more to discover."Nl: Terwijl ze zich bij de groep voegden, voelden Maarten en Sanne een verandering in zichzelf.En: As they rejoined the group, Maarten and Sanne felt a change within themselves.Nl: Maarten begreep nu dat nieuwsgierigheid de leiding moet respecteren, terwijl Sanne een nieuwe waardering voor avontuur ontdekte.En: Maarten now understood that curiosity must respect guidance, while Sanne discovered a new appreciation for adventure.Nl: Ze deelden een glimlach en stapten verder, elk iets wijzer door hun kleine avontuur op het Leidseplein, onder de lentestralen van Amsterdam.En: They shared a smile and stepped forward, each a little wiser from their small adventure on the Leidseplein, under the spring rays of Amsterdam.Nl: Hun korte ontsnapping had hen meer geleerd dan een boek ooit zou kunnen.En: Their brief escape had taught them more than a book ever could.
