Dos empresas privadas lanzan naves rumbo a la Luna con objetivos científicos ambiciosos  Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCoDos empresas privadas han lanzado sus módulos lunares Resilience y Blue Ghost a bordo de un cohete Falcon 9 desde Cabo Cañaveral, Florida.Flash Diario en Spotify.  Es la primera vez que dos misiones de compañías diferentes comparten el mismo viaje al espacio. Ambas exploraciones buscarán ampliar el conocimiento sobre la Luna, con objetivos como recolectar muestras de regolito y estudiar la radiación espacial. Resilience transporta un modelo artístico para simbolizar la presencia humana, mientras que Blue Ghost llevará experimentos para probar el uso de señales GPS en la Luna. Esta misión conjunta marca un hito en la exploración lunar privada, y los resultados podrían influir en futuras misiones tripuladas bajo el programa Artemis.  El desafío real comienza al llegar a la superficie lunar  El 15 de enero de 2025, el Falcon 9 despegó llevando los módulos lunares Blue Ghost y Resilience, creados por Firefly Aerospace y la japonesa ispace, respectivamente. Cada nave sigue rutas independientes hacia la Luna: Resilience llegará en mayo a la región Mare Frigoris, mientras que Blue Ghost tiene previsto aterrizar en marzo en Mare Crisium. Ambos módulos transportan instrumentos para estudiar desde el polvo lunar hasta la radiación espacial.  El camino hacia la Luna está lleno de riesgos. En 2023, la primera misión de ispace terminó en un accidente cuando su módulo se estrelló al calcular mal la altura durante el descenso final. Este caso mostró la complejidad de los alunizajes no tripulados. Por otro lado, la misión de Firefly es su debut en el espacio profundo y representa un paso estratégico para su crecimiento como empresa aeroespacial. Cada módulo tiene un reto diferente: Resilience debe recorrer un trayecto más largo con menor consumo de energía, mientras que Blue Ghost enfrentará los desafíos de un aterrizaje más rápido y directo en una zona libre de anomalías magnéticas. Además, ambos módulos deberán superar las inclemencias del entorno lunar, como temperaturas extremas y el abrasivo polvo conocido como regolito. La historia muestra que pocas misiones privadas han tenido éxito: solo Odysseus de Intuitive Machines logró un aterrizaje en 2024, abriendo el camino para futuras misiones privadas.  Ambas misiones tienen objetivos ambiciosos. Resilience desplegará un pequeño rover llamado Tenacious para recolectar polvo lunar y colocar un modelo de una casa roja que simboliza la expansión humana en el espacio. Blue Ghost, equipado con 10 instrumentos de la NASA, estudiará la interacción del viento solar con el regolito y probará tecnologías para limpiar el polvo lunar de las superficies. Antes de apagarse, capturará imágenes de un eclipse visto desde la Luna, un homenaje al astronauta Eugene Cernan, el último en pisar la Luna con la misión Apolo 17.  Los experimentos que viajan con Blue Ghost incluyen un instrumento de rayos X que medirá la interacción del viento solar con la magnetosfera de la Tierra y un sistema GNSS (Sistema Global de Navegación por Satélite) para probar el uso de señales GPS en el entorno lunar, evaluando la precisión de estas señales para futuras misiones. También lleva un escudo electromagnético para limpiar el polvo lunar sin intervención humana. Por otro lado, Resilience incluye un experimento taiwanés para medir la radiación espacial, un paso clave para la seguridad de futuros astronautas. El éxito de estas misiones podría pavimentar el camino para los futuros alunizajes del programa Artemis.  Las misiones Resilience y Blue Ghost reflejan el avance de la exploración lunar privada. ¿Lograrán marcar un antes y un después?

Des bières et un voyage spatial. Le premier touriste spatial français est aussi brasseur de bières. Sylvain Chiron trempe depuis des années dans l'alcool et l'aéronautique avec un parcours atypique. Fils d'industriel spécialisé dans les pâtes (Lustucru pour ne pas le nommer), il rachète d'abord une distillerie à des moines en 1996. Trois ans plus tard, le Savoyard quitte le projet et part faire revivre la brasserie du Mont Blanc. Malgré son pedigree, il mange des pâtes comme ses paires pendant plusieurs années avec un simple SMIC, jusqu'à l'explosion de la marque. À l'aube de la tendance, il déploie un arsenal industriel puis surfe sur la vague des bières artisanales. Ses bières sont nommées cinq fois championnes du monde. Le chiffre d'affaires de la Brasserie du Mont Blanc est passé de 1 à 30 millions d'euros entre 2010 et 2023. Sylvain partage tous les secrets de son aventure entrepreneuriale… mais pas seulement. Féru de sensations fortes, il a participé au vol NS25 de Blue Origin en mai 2024. Il réalise son “rêve de gosse” et nous conte son voyage spatial en expliquant les véritables enjeux de conquête de l'espace. Une conversation franche et pleine de bonhomie, qui apprend d'abord comment faire les meilleurs alcools et bières au monde puis dévoile les coulisses des premières heures du tourisme spatial.

(NOTAS COMPLETAS Y ENLACES DEL CAPÍTULO AQUÍ: https://www.jaimerodriguezdesantiago.com/kaizen/172-el-misterio-de-la-vida-i-la-tierra-y-el-efecto-perspectiva/)Me ha dado por terminar la temporada de kaizen con un tema sencillito. Porque, sí, éste es el último capítulo de esta quinta temporada. Después empezarán mis vacaciones y kaizen y yo volveremos en septiembre. Pero algo me dice que con el de hoy nos vamos a llevar mucho para digerir durante estos meses.Y es que hay tanto que damos por sentado que muchas veces nos es difícil ser conscientes siquiera del milagro que es todo lo que nos rodea. Y no lo digo en el sentido religioso del término, aunque si hay algo que a mí, que no soy creyente, me llevaría a creer sería eso. Digo lo de milagro en el sentido casi matemático. Porque sea cual sea la explicación científica de que estemos aquí, en este planeta, vivos, comunicándonos y haciendo todas esas cosas que hacemos los humanos, que nos parecen tan importantes en nuestro día a día y que, sin embargo, pierden cualquier lógica cuando uno toma distancia; si hay algo que explique todo eso, sea lo que sea, parece que sólo se sostiene en que vivimos en un Universo de un tamaño y una edad inimaginables para nosotros, pero lo suficientemente descomunales como para que se acumulen todo tipo de improbabilidades.Tal vez haya vida en otros planetas. Quizás esta canica azul no sea la única habitada en nuestro descomunal y vacío universo; pero lo que es seguro es que al menos ésta lo está. Que nosotros estamos aquí, también en ese descomunal y vacío universo. Y la pregunta que a mí me sale es casi tan descomunal: ¿de dónde demonios venimos los humanos?

"I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the Earth." These words, spoken by President John F. Kennedy in May 1961, changed the lives of twelve Americans who walked on the moon. The Wonder of it All focuses on the Apollo astronauts; Buzz Aldrin, Alan Bean, Edgar Mitchell, John Young, Charles Duke, Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt, as they reflect on the training, the tragedies, being on the moon and the impact of space travel.

Pyramid on the Moon Our pyramids on Earth are a marvel by themselves, but is it possible there’s a pyramid hiding in our moon too? Many believe so and Oddly enough the idea of a pyramid hiding on our moon comes from non other then NASA itself. During the Apollo 17 landing on the moon, they took multiple pictures of the lunar surface as well as the rover and other items there. These photos were eventually released to the public and eagle-eyed viewers saw something more in one of the images. One image is said to have captured a pyramid sitting on our lunar landscape. The supposed pyramid image is officially labeled by NASA as “LRV Floor? Sunstruck.” 4. Fake Moon Landing July 20, 1969 was a historic day for mankind. It was the first-time anyone had ever set foot on the moon. However, many aren’t sure we ever actualy, went there or at least not on July 1969. According to a recent survey, at least 20% of Americans don’t believe we landed on the moon in 1969. They say, if ever we did, it was much later than that and point to various “discrepancies” and anomalies in the footage of the landing. First, there’s the obvious images and film of the waving flag. Many argue that if space is a vacuum then why are there ripples on the American flag? 3. Fake Moon Rock Since the moon landings were a celebration of mankind’s achievement, NASA and prominent astronauts, Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins embarked on a world tour shortly after their successful mission. During this tour, they also officially gave away “moon rocks” as a sort of souvenir and sign of peace and goodwill to over 100 countries and officials all over the world. One such moon rock was given to then Dutch Prime Minister, Willem Drees in 1969. It was former American Ambassador, J. William Middendorf, who presented it to Mr. Drees as a private gift. After the prime minister’s death, however, it was handed over to a meuseuam in the neatherlands in 1988. 2. Music on the Dark Side of The Moon & Secret Military Base Apollo 10 launched in May 1969 and was the second manned craft destined to orbit the moon. Inside it was a crew of three astronauts, John Young, Eugene Cernan and Thomas Stafford. While they were heading toward the dark side of the moon, they were expecting to hear nothing since they knew they would lose all transmissions from Earth, but that’s not what happened. Once they got to the far side, the astronauts heard an unusual whistling sound. The audiotape of their conversation was made public and you can hear John Young and Eugene Cernan discussing this mysterious sound. 1. Hollow Moon Theory The idea of a Hollow Moon first came to life in the 1901 H.G. Well’s novel, the First Men in the Moon. The story told of two men landing on the moon and finding it to be an actual base, occupied by a unique alien race. For many conspiracy theorists, this is more than just a story and they say could actually be a reality.

124 Poisoned: How A Crime-busting Prosecutor Turned His Medical Mystery Into A Crusade For Environmental Victims

Allan Bell: From Victim To Superhero http://learntruehealth.com/alan-bell Alan Bell is the author of Poisoned. It tells how a prosecutor turned his medical mystery into a crusade for environmental victims. I have a lot of guests who have stressed the negative effects of environmental toxins from chemicals to ordinary items such as make-up. People are getting sick and doctors are making them drink lots of medicines. "I was a prosecutor in South Florida in the 80s. That time, they were filming 'Miami Vice' and I was there. Suddenly I came down with really bizarre medical symptoms. I started getting a sore throat, my eyes started burning me, my lungs started burning," Alan Bell said. It progressed to the point where Alan Bell began feeling fatigue. Like flu that wouldn't go away. So he went to several doctors but they didn't know what was wrong. It became worse and Alan Bell was experiencing seizures. He went to the Mayo Clinic, Cleaveland Clinic and National Jewish Hospital among others. Finally one day, there was a physician at National Jewish Hospital in Colorado who told Bell he was poisoned based on blood test results. He flew back to South Florida and talked to his investigators and told them the doctors' findings. He instructed them to investigate what was causing his condition. "I went to another doctor in South Florida who specialized in environmental health. He told me the building I was working in is making me sick. I didn't believe him at first but when my investigators came back with results, they affirmed what this Florida doctor said. That was my 'Ah-ha!' moment," recalls Alan Bell. That doctor advised him to get out of South Florida and settle somewhere else far away. He referred Alan Bell to a support group that deals with people who are environmentally injured. "Hence, they relocated me to an 800 square foot bubble in the middle of the Arizona desert. So along with my wife and daughter, we went to Arizona, to that bubble in the middle of nowhere," recalls Alan. Inside the bubble was nothing. In addition to that, it was like a cold, steel cell. Consequently, Bell ended up in a wheelchair. And his health deteriorated. Soon, his wife couldn't handle the situation so she left and left their child with Alan. "I fought to stay alive for the sake of my daughter. All I had in the bubble was a phone, fax, pencil and paper. Hence, I began to use those tools to talk to the top scientists on the planet," said Bell. In my quest to regain health, Bell stumbled upon a Pandora's box. But he discovered that his plight was just the tip of the iceberg. The scientists Bell talked to said all human disease and premature deaths, boils down to two common denominators: 1. The genes you were born with. 2. The environment that you are exposed to. "More people get sick and die from environmental exposure than all those afflicted with AIDS, automobile accidents, war, and crime combined. This is the silent epidemic of the 20th century," Bell said. In addition to that, Bell tried to look for charities looking into this so he could donate money to them. But there was nobody who was focusing on saving the humans. "I spoke to health organizations. But they focused on their separate diseases. And they recognize that there is a huge environmental component to the separate disease that they look at. But none of them were focusing on how all of those diseases are inter-related to common environmental factors," said Bell. The Environmental Health Foundation "I started my own little charity inside my little bubble and called it The Environmental Health Foundation. At that time I was able to get the support of then Vice President Al Gore, Eugene Cernan (the last man to walk on the moon) as many more. In addition to that, we were able to raise money and donated it to research," shares Bell. "Then I called this one doctor who did a brain scan on me. He found out I had brain injury due to the chemical exposures. So he put me on a new medicine at the time, which is an anti-seizure medicine." Slowly but surely, Bell got well. It was amazing because, by that time, Bell was trapped in that bubble for 8 years. It took a while to be re-introduced to society. Lawyers Jan Schlichtmann (the lawyer portrayed in the movie A Civil Action) and Ed Masry (the lawyer portrayed in the movie Erin Brokovich) worked with Bell to look into this environmental case. Many victims were like me and Bell helped them. Bell was a victim, became a survivor, became a health advocate and legally helped other people. He has come full circle. Bells says, "That's what prompted me to write this book called Poisoned. So I could share my personal journey with everybody else. To alert them that you could modify your lifestyle and prevent this from happening to yourself and your family." Latest Statistics The alarming environmental statistics should wake us up. We can't afford to anymore put our head in the sand and ignore that our children are dying of cancer due to exposure to pollutants. Some research shows there are toxins that have contaminated placenta blood of the baby. Our children are literally being born toxic. Since 1950, more than 85,000 chemicals have been introduced into our environment. And few of them have been tested for their toxic effects on humans. We can't rely on our government to protect us and we can't rely on our doctors to cure us. It's up to you should protect yourself. "The only reason why I got sick from it is because it was a brand new building. They merely re-circulated the old air to save energy costs. I was too sick to sue them. By the time I got better the statute of limitations (4 years) are gone," shares Bell. But years later, when Bell walked into the building, he was fine. It was like a brand new car. The nice and new smell is toxic. But when a car is two years old, the smell dissipates. The toxins dissipate as well. Same thing with the building. Bell says the difference between now and then is, now they require new buildings to have at least 10% fresh air coming into the building. When he got sick, there was no such law. Lesson Learned "My book teaches you to be smart on what to buy. You don't have to give up anything. If you want to figure out how to live longer and healthier, by this book," said Bell. Alan Bell has devoted his life to helping victims who cannot fend for themselves. Despite overwhelming odds, his personal misfortune has turned into a benefit for others.

On this date in 1972, Eugene Cernan became the last man to walk on the moon. Here are some things you may not have known about Apollo 17. Apollo 17 was the first mission to be commanded by someone who was not a test pilot. Gene Cernan was a fighter pilot in the navy, and had more than 200 aircraft carrier landings. He served as pilot on Gemini 9A and lunar module pilot on Apollo 10, which was the dress rehearsal for the first moon landing. Cernan was joined on Apollo 17 by fellow naval aviator Ron Evans and Jack Schmitt, who was the first, and so far only, professional scientist to fly beyond low Earth orbit. The mission was classified as a “J” mission by NASA, meaning the crew would spend three days on the lunar surface, conducting several scientific excursions and using the Lunar Rover. During the mission, Cernan and Schmitt logged about 22 miles in the Lunar Rover and Cernan set a lunar land speed record of 11.2 miles per hour. The duo spent a total of 22 hours outside the lunar lander on the surface. Their first extra-vehicular activity was three times longer than the total amount of time Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin spent on the surface during Apollo 11. They collected almost 250 pounds of samples from the moon. On December 14, Cernan stepped off the moon as he and Schmitt rejoined Evans in the command module orbiting above. Five days later, the command module returned to Earth, splashing down in the South Pacific near American Samoa. The astronauts were recovered by the USS Ticonderoga and were safely aboard 52 minutes after landing. Our question: The first and last men on the moon earned degrees from what university?   Today is unofficially World Monkey Day and National Bouillabaisse Day. It’s the birthday of Great Britain’s George VI, who was born in 1895; author Shirley Jackson, who was born in 1916; and actress Patty Duke, who was born in 1946. This week in 1972, the top song in the U.S. was “Me and Mrs. Jones” by Billy Paul. The No. 1 movie was “Lady Sings the Blues,” while the novel “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” by Richard Bach topped the New York Times Bestsellers list.
