Virgin Galactic chuẩn bị tiết lộ Máy bay tên lửa du lịch vũ trụ mới

Virgin Galactic sẽ tung ra một phiên bản mới của tên lửa du lịch không gian SpaceShipTwo của nó vào Thứ Sáu khi nó chuẩn bị để trở về thử nghiệm chuyến bay lần đầu tiên kể từ khi một vụ tai nạn năm 2014. 

SpaceShipTwo được thiết kế để bay bởi một trong hai phi hành đoàn và đưa sáu hành khách đến rìa không gian. Ở độ cao trên 62 dặm, hành khách sẽ trải nghiệm một vài phút không trọng lượng và xem trái đất bên dưới.

Sau nhiều năm phát triển, Virgin Galactic dường như đang đến gần mục tiêu làm cho dân thường thành phi hành gia. SpaceShipTwo đầu tiên đã vỡ ra thành từng mảnh vào ngày 31 tháng mười năm 2014. 

Cuộc điều tra cho thấy phi công phụ Michael Alsbury đã mở khoá cái gọi là hệ thống phủ đầy lông nhằm mục đích làm chậm lại và ổn định con tàu khi nó vào lại khí quyển. Alsbury đã bị chết, nhưng phi công Peter Siebold, mặc dù bị thương nặng, đã nhảy dù an toàn.

For a time, the Hubble telescope was the brunt of jokes and subject to the wrath of those who believed the U.S. government had spent too much money on space projects that served no valid purpose. The Hubble was sent into orbit with a satellite by the Space Shuttle Discovery in 1990 amid huge hype and expectation. Yet after it was in position, it simply did not work, because the primary mirror was misshapen. It was not until 1993 that the crew of the Shuttle Endeavor arrived like roadside mechanics, opened the hatch that was installed for the purpose, and replaced the defective mirror with a good one.

Suddenly, all that had originally been expected came true. The Hubble telescope was indeed the “window on the universe,” as it had originally been dubbed. When you look deep into space, you are actually looking back through time, because even though light travels at 186,000 miles a second, it requires time to get from one place to another. In fact, it is said that in some cases, the Hubble telescope is looking back eleven billion years to see galaxies already forming. The distant galaxies are speeding away from Earth, some traveling at the speed of light.

Hubble has viewed exploding stars such as the Eta Carinae, which clearly displayed clouds of gas and dust billowing outward from its poles at 1.5 million miles an hour. Prior to Hubble, it was visible from traditional telescopes on earth, but its details were not ascertainable. But now, the evidence of the explosion is obvious. The star still burns five million times brighter than the sun and illuminates clouds from the inside.

Hubble has also provided a close look at black holes, which are described as cosmic drains. Gas and dust swirl around the drain and are slowly sucked in by the incredible gravity. It has also looked into an area that looked empty to the naked eye and, within a region the size of a grain of sand, located layer upon layer of galaxies, with each galaxy consisting of billions of stars.

          The Hubble telescope was named after Edwin Hubble, a 1920s astronomer who developed a formula that expresses the proportional relationship of distances between clusters of galaxies and the speeds at which they travel. Astronomers use stars known as Cepheid variables to measure distances in space. These stars dim and brighten from time to time, and they are photographed over time and charted. All the discoveries made by Hubble have allowed astronomers to learn more about the formation of early galaxies.

Many ants forage across the countryside in large numbers and undertake mass migrations; these activities proceed because one ant lays a trail on the ground for the others to follow. As a worker ant returns home after finding a source of food, it marks the route by intermittently touching its stinger to the ground and depositing a tiny amount of trail pheromone – a mixture of chemicals that delivers diverse messages as the context changes. These trails incorporate no directional information and may be followed by other ants in either direction.

Unlike some other messages, such as the one arising from a dead ant, a food trail has to be kept secret from members of other species. It is not surprising then that ant species use a wide variety of compounds as trail pheromones. Ants can be extremely sensitive to these signals. Investigators working with the trail pheromone of the leafcutter ant Atta texana calculated that one milligram of this substance would suffice to lead a column of ants three times around Earth.

The vapor of the evaporating pheromone over the trail guides an ant along the way, and the ant detects this signal with receptors in its antennae. A trail pheromone will evaporate to furnish the highest concentration of vapor right over the trail, in what is called a vapor space. In following the trail, the ant moves to the right and left, oscillating from side to side across the line of the trail itself, bringing first one and then the other antenna into the vapor space. As the ant moves to the right, its left antenna arrives in the vapor space.

The signal it receives causes it to swing to the left, and the ant then pursues this new course until its right antenna reaches the vapor space. It then swings back to the right, and so weaves back and forth down the trail.

According to the passage, the highest amount of pheromone vapor is found

A. in the source of food

B. in the receptors of the ants

C. under the soil along the trail

D. just above the trail

Theo đoạn văn, lượng pheromone cao nhất được tìm thấy

A. trong nguồn thức ăn

B. trong các thụ thể của kiến

C. dưới đất dọc theo dấu vết

D. ngay phía trên dấu vết

Thông tin: A trail pheromone will evaporate to furnish the highest concentration of vapor right over the trail  

Dịch bài đọc:

Nhiều con kiến đi kiếm thức ăn với số lượng lớn và di cư nhiều; những hoạt động này diễn ra bởi một con kiến tạo ra một dấu vết trên mặt đất để những con khác đi theo. Khi một con kiến thợ trở về nhà sau khi tìm ra nguồn thức ăn, nó đánh dấu đường đi bằng chạm ngòi của nó ngắt quãng trên mặt đất và để một lượng pheromone nhỏ - một hỗn hợp các chất hóa học cung ứng các thông điệp đa dạng khi bối cảnh thay đổi. Những dấu vết này không kết hợp thông tin phương hướng và có thể được đi theo sau bởi các con kiến khác ở cả hai hướng.

Không giống như một số thông điệp khác, chẳng hạn như một thông điệp phát sinh từ một con kiến chết, một con đường kiếm ăn phải được giữ bí mật khỏi các loài khác. Không có gì đáng ngạc nhiên khi kiến sử dụng nhiều loại hợp chất như dấu vết pheromones. Kiến có thể rất nhạy cảm với những tín hiệu này. Các nhà điều tra làm việc với dấu vết pheromone của loài kiến cắn lá Atta texana tính toán rằng một miligam của chất này sẽ đủ để dẫn một dãy kiến đi ba lần vòng quanh Trái đất.

Hơi của pheromone bay hơi trên dấu vết sẽ dẫn một con kiến dọc theo con đường, và con kiến phát hiện ra tín hiệu này với các thụ thể trong ăngten của nó. Một dấu vết pheromone sẽ bay hơi để cung ứng nồng độ hơi cao nhất trên dấu vết, trong cái gọi là không gian hơi. Khi đi theo dấu vết, kiến di chuyển sang phải và trái, dao động từ bên này sang bên kia đường thẳng của dấu vết, đưa ăngten đầu tiên và sau đó là ăngten khác vào không gian hơi. Khi con kiến di chuyển sang phải, ăng ten bên trái của nó sẽ đến không gian hơi. Các tín hiệu nhận được làm cho nó ngoặt sang trái, và con kiến phía sau đó theo cách này cho đến khi các ăng-ten bên phải của nó đến không gian hơi. Sau đó nó quay về phía bên phải, và tới lui theo dấu vết.

Suddenly, all that had originally been expected came true. The Hubble telescope was indeed the “window on the universe,” as it had originally been dubbed. When you look deep into space, you are actually looking back through time, because even though light travels at 186,000 miles a second, it requires time to get from one place to another. In fact, it is said that in some cases, the Hubble telescope is looking back eleven billion years to see galaxies already forming. The distant galaxies are speeding away from Earth, some traveling at the speed of light.

Hubble has viewed exploding stars such as the Eta Carinae, which clearly displayed clouds of gas and dust billowing outward from its poles at 1.5 million miles an hour. Prior to Hubble, it was visible from traditional telescopes on earth, but its details were not ascertainable. But now, the evidence of the explosion is obvious. The star still burns five million times brighter than the sun and illuminates clouds from the inside.

Hubble has also provided a close look at black holes, which are described as cosmic drains. Gas and dust swirl around the drain and are slowly sucked in by the incredible gravity. It has also looked into an area that looked empty to the naked eye and, within a region the size of a grain of sand, located layer upon layer of galaxies, with each galaxy consisting of billions of stars.

          The Hubble telescope was named after Edwin Hubble, a 1920s astronomer who developed a formula that expresses the proportional relationship of distances between clusters of galaxies and the speeds at which they travel. Astronomers use stars known as Cepheid variables to measure distances in space. These stars dim and brighten from time to time, and they are photographed over time and charted. All the discoveries made by Hubble have allowed astronomers to learn more about the formation of early galaxies.
