Eclipse Across America
August 21, 2017, the United States experienced a solar eclipse!
An eclipse occurs when the Moon temporarily blocks the light from the Sun. Within the narrow, 60- to 70-mile-wide band stretching from Oregon to South Carolina called the path of totality, the Moon completely blocked out the Sun’s face; elsewhere in North America, the Moon covered only a part of the star, leaving a crescent-shaped Sun visible in the sky.
During this exciting event, we were collecting your images and reactions online.
Here are a few images of this celestial event…take a look:
This composite image, made from 4 frames, shows the International Space Station, with a crew of six onboard, as it transits the Sun at roughly five miles per second during a partial solar eclipse from, Northern Cascades National Park in Washington. Onboard as part of Expedition 52 are: NASA astronauts Peggy Whitson, Jack Fischer, and Randy Bresnik; Russian cosmonauts Fyodor Yurchikhin and Sergey Ryazanskiy; and ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Paolo Nespoli.

While most of us watched the eclipse from Earth, six humans had the opportunity to view the event from 250 miles above on the International Space Station. European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Paolo Nespoli captured this image of the Moon’s shadow crossing America.

19th Century Textile Tools and Machinery Collection at the American Textile History Museum - Lowell, Mass., April 11, 2012.
ASME presented the American Textile History Museum with a plaque officially recognizing its collection of textile tools and machinery from the 19th century. The collection contains more than 250 spinning wheels and more than 300 examples of industrial-era textile machinery.
Among the highlights are: a Cotton Gin from Prattville, Ala., from between 1873 and 1899; an Artemus Dryden Woolen Card from Holden, Mass., circa 1825; a Throstle Frame from Lowell, Mass., circa 1835; and an M.A. Furbush & Son Power Loom, from Philadelphia, Penn., circa 1870.

Nice punch.
A brief history of F-1 (Part-1).
Okay, let’s get revved up. In this post, i will try to establish what Formula-1 actually is by answering some basic but yet integral questions.
Why is it called “Formula” -one ?
The term “Formula” in Formula 1 essentially refers to a set of regulations that govern any of several forms of single-seater open wheeled motor sports. Typical regulations that are specified include:-
Restrictions on the type of chassis to be made
Restrictions on the type of engine to be used, essentially limits on the maximum engine displacement
Restrictions on the gearbox to be used
Other competition specific regulations, specifically conduct rules such as refueling rules, pit stop rules etc.
Restrictions are generally not put on suspension, braking, steering and aerodynamics and the teams are generally free to do whatever they want in these fields. All of these regulations make up the “FORMULA”
Is there a formula- two ?
Yup, not only formula two, but formula three as well ( These are most popular ones,but many more do exist). The distinction of these is based on the ‘Formula’ that govern it. Formula 1 consists of the best performing cars (in terms of power and max. velocity) and followed by Formula 2 and 3. And hence the chronological placement of numbers 1,2 and 3.
What is a Grand Prix?
Grand Prix is any of a series of motor-racing or motorcycling contests forming part of a world championship series, held in various countries under international rules.
The first race to be given the title “Grand Prix” was held at Le Mans in 1906. It was restricted to “big cars”, which could be described as the “Formula One” cars of the period. From then on, the term Grand Prix became associated with major circuit races for cars. Top events, which were the equivalent of today’s Grands Prix, were called “Grandes Epreuves” (Great Events). However, the FIA was opposed to the popular usage of the “Grand Prix” title, which it wished to reserve for events counting towards its Formula One World Championship. Henceforth, it was prohibited to use the Grand Prix title for an event which did not count towards this Championship, except for very rare cases with historic justification, such as the Grand Prix de Pau, which is currently a Formula 3 event.
A list of the formula one Grands Prix can be found here.
Can any driver compete in a Grand Prix?
No. In order to be able to take part in a Grand Prix, a driver must hold a “Super Licence”, which is awarded on the basis of his past record in junior formula and of his having a valid contract with a Formula One team which has entered the World Championship.
How are the laps are timed in F-1?
Each car has a transponder unit fitted to it (they are fitted beside the cockpit and in the front of the chassis ), the transponder has a ID unique to each car and it will transmit this ID when the unit is energized by passing over a timing loop buried in the track surface. These transponders allow the timekeepers to record every lap time of every car throughout the weekend. ( The use of a transponder unit for lap timing is also used in other motor sports )
Facts and Trivia Section:
Do you know the logo?
The Formula 1 logo has a hidden number 1 between the letter F and the speed lines. Surely most of you out there think “F” signifies ‘Formula’ and the red-coloured design signifies “1″. But in reality it is not the red-coloured design, it is in fact the white space between the black coloured “F” and the red-coloured design that signifies “1″. Meaning of the colors :The red color represents passion and energy, while the black color represents power and determination.
