On July 10, the trip to the fastest orbit ever undertaken and the Russian specialists were the 'responsible' for this achievement. Three and a half hours between takeoff and coupling could significantly change the whole logic of work in the near space, suggests a contributor to the Russian edition of Forbes.

The space freighter Progress MS-09, launched on July 10, 2018, marked history by becoming the spacecraft that most quickly reached the International Space Station (ISS).

While senior officials and Russian space experts praised the advancement from the technological point of view and its possible uses for the development of the country's space industry, the reason why the importance of this event remains unknown to the broader audiences, regrets the Forbes collaborator Mikhail Kotov.

The complexity of the task

The launch of a spacecraft is only part of the process since the most complicated work begins when the device is directed towards the ISS:

The approach is made by turning the motors of the device on and off at exact times. According to the author, it is "a work of jewelery: the specialists manipulate the engines to direct a device flying at about 27,000 kilometers per hour with the precision of mere centimeters".

After approving the algorithm in several launches of the Progress freighters, Roscosmos will send a new crew to the ISS according to the ultrafast scheme, and three and a half hours will be a huge improvement before the usual 48 hours nowadays

Greeting fellows Citizens    As we all know the Primaries are over and now the serious business of choosing your Representatives to Parliament   begins . And I ask again for your support . I believe that Asgardia will be a educational force in the future of our Solar system . Many of us running for Parliament may not see the first ark platforms to be launch do to our place in this historic venture . the building of the first off world society. This will take many years to do .But how well it goes will be determined by what the first Parliamentarians do . This is a volatile time in history .World powers nashing their teeth shaking fists at each other like children on the play ground not thinking about what their actions could do . Asgardia is a nation that wants to keep from the fray Asgardia is a nation of Science and Learning . Of Freedom for it's Citizens to be their very best ,now and in the future . Yes Asgardias goal is to protect the Earth . But at the same  we have to work hard so as not to be pulled into grounder politics. To be in Parliament is an honor ,but that doesn't compare to the hard work that must be done . The work of protecting not only the earth but our own people .To see to it that they are well Educated ,Housed ,Clothed ,and Feed .And provided Medical care when they need it at all stages in the lifes . We as members of Parliament must insure that the rights of the Citizens are protected .That Government follows the Laws passed by Parliament according to the Constitution .. This I will do to the best of my ability. my time in office will be transparent  Where it doesn't cause Danger to the Nation or it's Citizens  those that have read my Platform know where I stand . and I ask others to read also and if you agree whit what I stand for then I ask for your vote       https://asgardia.space/en/elections-districts/English/

Escape velocity is the speed that an object needs to be traveling to break free of a planet or moon's gravitational force and leave it without further propulsion to enter orbit. So if we throw an object straight up, it will rise until the negative acceleration of gravity stops it, then returns it to Earth. Gravity's force diminishes as distance from the center of the Earth increases, however if we can throw the object with enough initial upward velocity so that gravity's decreasing force can never quite slow it to a complete stop, its decreasing velocity can always be just high enough to overcome gravity's pull. The initial velocity needed to achieve that condition is the escape velocity.

From the surface of the Earth, escape velocity (ignoring air friction) is about 7 miles per second, or 25,000 miles per hour. Given that initial speed, an object needs no additional force applied to completely escapes Earth's gravity; for example, a spacecraft leaving the surface of Earth needs to be going 7 miles per second, or nearly 25,000 miles per hour to leave without falling back to the surface or falling into orbit.

The object must have greater energy than its gravitational binding energy to escape the earth's gravitational field. So:
1/2 mv ² = GMm/R
Where m is the mass of the object, M mass of the earth, G is the gravitational constant, R is the radius of the earth, and v is the escape velocity. It simplifies to:
v = sqrt(2GM/R)
or
v = sqrt(2gR)
Where g is acceleration of gravity on the earth's surface.
The value evaluates to be approximately:
11100 m/s
40200 km/h
25000 mi/h

So, an object which has this velocity at the surface of the earth, will totally escape the earth's gravitational field (ignoring the losses due to the atmosphere) .

Since escape velocity depends on the mass of the planet or moon that a spacecraft is blasting off of, a spacecraft leaving the moon's surface could go slower than one blasting off of the Earth, because the moon has less gravity than the Earth. On the other hand, the escape velocity for Jupiter would be many times that of Earth's because Jupiter is so huge and has so much gravity. One reason that manned missions to other planets are difficult to plan is that a ship would have to take enough fuel into space to blast off of the other planet when the astronauts wanted to go home. The weight of the fuel would make the spaceship so heavy it would be hard to blast it off of Earth!

An Endless Cycle

Achieving escape velocity is one of the biggest challenges facing space travel. The vehicle requires an enormous amount of fuel to break through Earth’s gravitational pull. All that fuel adds significant weight to the spacecraft, and when an object is heavier, it takes more thrust to lift. To create more thrust, we need more fuel. It’s a cycle that scientists are hoping to resolve by creating lighter vehicles, more efficient fuel and new methods of propulsion that don’t require the same ingredients to attain great speeds.

That cycle of speed, fuel and weight was a primary reason the Saturn V rocket that took the first astronauts to the Moon was so large. It required such enormous quantities of fuel to break fre e of the Earth’s gravitational pull that a vehicle of this size was the only workable solution. The Space Shuttle in use now is much smaller, but doesn’t have nearly as far to travel or nearly as much gravitational force to overcome. Future space propulsion projects, such as magnetic levitation, could reduce size requirements because speed and propulsion will be created in a manner that doesn’t require large fuel tanks.

In astronomy, the term orbit refers to the path of an object whose motion through space is controlled by the gravitational pull of another object. The Moon orbits the Earth, in turn, orbits the Sun. Spacecraft can also orbit the Earth. If an object gains enough speed to attain escape velocity, its orbit becomes an open curve called a Parabola. If it continues moving faster than escape velocity, its orbit is a flattened curve called a Hyperbola. A spacecraft that leaves its orbit around the Earth on journey toward another planet travels in a hyperbolic orbit.

Dear ASGARDIAN fellow citizens. It would be an honor to be elected  for the PARLIAMENT OF ASGARDIA.  I  invite You to visit my personal web page .#Asgardia ➡️ vote me plz again thank you.! ‪https://asgardia.space/en/elections/candidates/English/20739‬

Finding a study that seems to redefine reality is a rarity, and a provocative article by physics professor Vitaly Vanchurin of the University of Minnesota Duluth (USA), available in prepress, revaluates exactly our reality in an extremely peculiar way by indicating that we and everything in the universe “at its most fundamental level [is] a neural network.” For decades, researchers have been trying to reconcile general relativity with quantum mechanics without much success. In Einstein's relativity time is relative, but absolute in quantum mechanics. Vanchurin proposes that artificial neural networks exhibit behaviors similar to both theories of physics. He explains that quantum mechanics “is a remarkably successful paradigm for modeling physical phenomena on a wide range of scales” and that “it is widely believed that at the most fundamental level the entire universe is governed by the rules of quantum mechanics and even gravity should somehow emerge from it,” the researcher states.“We're not just saying that artificial neural networks can be useful for analyzing physical systems or for discovering physical laws, we're saying that's how the world around us actually works,” it states in the study. “In this regard, it can be considered a proposal for the theory of everything, and as such it should be easy to prove it wrong."In an interview for Futurism Vanchurin explained a little more about his peculiar idea. According to the physicist when a neural network has a very large number of neurons its behavior can be described very well by equations of classical quantum mechanics, which explains how the physical world works. In the article the physicist explores the possibility that the fundamental structure of everything that exists is a microscopic neural network from which everything emerges; both quantum mechanics (which explains the behavior of very small things), and general relativity (which explains how very large things behave). In a previous article on machine learning, the researcher tried to use statistical methods to understand how neural networks behave, but eventually discovered that, in certain aspects, they are many similar to the dynamics of quantum mechanics which led him to explore the idea that the physical world may be a neural network. According to the recent article The Theory can be proved incorrect and "all that is necessary [would be] to find a physical phenomenon that [cannot] be described by neural networks"” When asking the obligatory question, whether the theory of the universe as a neural network means that we live in a simulation the physicist replied that " no, we live in a neural network, but we may never know the difference."

My conviction is that it is possible a society in which happiness predominates, and the first such society can be Asgardia. I want to get involved in the life of our community to make it, together, the best human society that has existed so far.

By my candidacy to the Parliament of Asgardia (or to a position in the governmental structures, if I will be more appropriate there) I do not aim to satisfy my personal pride, nor material gain or any other kind of personal gain. I run for election to contribute to the wellness of all.

I have been, so far, a teacher and journalist in Romania.

I have never been a member of a political party.

The major values that lead my life are knowledge, morality and spirituality. I will never abandon them.

One old and constant preoccupation is for me to acquire and maintain a solid scientific-technical knowledge. It should be relevant in a world like Asgardia.

For Asgardia, I think I could be helpful in a range of areas:

• culture, education, art, creativity, spirituality;

• information / press, advertising, public relations;

• analysis, evaluation, estimation, prognosis;

• sociology, ideology, propaganda (ideology and propaganda do not necessarily represent negative concepts and are inherent in any society as long as there are different models of society);

• administration.

Thank you for having confidence in me and for voting me. Consider that so are increasing your chances to have a better future in the Asgardian world.

(romanian)

Am convingerea că societatea în care să predomine fericirea este posibilă, iar prima astfel de societate poate fi chiar Asgardia. Vreau să mă implic în viața comunității noastre pentru a face din ea, împreună, cea mai bună societate umană care a existat până acum.

Prin candidatura mea la Parlamentul Asgardiei (sau pentru o funcție în structurile guvernamentale, dacă acolo voi fi mai potrivit) nu urmăresc satisfacerea orgoliului personal, nici parvenirea materială sau de orice alt fel. Candidez pentru a contribui la binele tuturor.

Până în prezent am activat ca profesor și jurnalist, în România.

Nu am fost niciodată membru al unui partid politic.

Valorile majore care îmi conduc viața sunt cunoașterea, moralitatea și spiritualitatea. Nu voi devia niciodată de la ele.

Una din preocupările mele vechi și constante este să dobândesc și să-mi mențin la zi o cât mai solidă cultură științifico-tehnică, ceea ce cred că este relevant într-o lume precum Asgardia.

Pentru Asgardia, consider că aș putea servi cu succes într-un evantai de domenii:

• cultură, educație, artă, creativitate, spiritualitate;

• informare/presă, publicitate (advertising), relații cu publicul;

• analiză, evaluare, estimare, prognoză;

• sociologie, ideologie, propagandă (ideologia și propaganda nu reprezintă neapărat concepte negative și sunt inerente în orice societate, atâta timp cât există diferite modele de societate);

• administrație.

Mulțumesc pentru încrederea și votul pe care mi le acorzi. Poți considera că prin ele cresc șansele tale de mai bine în lumea asgardiană.
