Jörg Liebig has created this papercraft as a tribute to the Rocket Beans TV show. It's scaled and patterned after the original Gameboy game cartridge.
Gameboy Cartridge - Rocket Beans Papercraft
Well, nothing in space stands still. Everything either orbits around something else, or moves toward or away from something else. So how do space engineers aim a spacecraft so it lands on Mars or meets up with a particular comet or asteroid? Not only are Earth and the target constantly moving in their different orbits around the Sun, but our Earthly launch pad is spinning at about 1,000 miles per hour when we launch the rocket!
Gather up whatever small balls you have. They can be tennis balls, softballs, whiffle balls, golf balls, or bean bags. Or you can make small "paper basketballs" by tightly wadding up pieces of notebook-sized paper.
Usually, engineers will try for the beginning of the first launch window. However, several things can delay a launch. For example, the weather might be bad. Or something might suddenly look a little funny with the spacecraft or the rocket or the ground communications. Or a boat or airplane might appear, even though they've been warned to keep their distance. Any of these could cause a delay until the next launch window or later in the same launch window.
When coffee is roasted, the beans absorb large volumes of carbon dioxide (CO2), which is gradually released over the days that follow. While 40% of CO2 typically escapes within the first 24 hours after roasting, the process continues when the coffee is eventually packaged.
Broad beans were one of the earliest cultivars. They store well, usually dried but sometimes in a saltwater brine. The dried beans are usually rehydrated and used for making purees or braised dishes that contain vegetables and/or meat.
Last season, we served an appetiser of whole young broad beans in the pod. The beans were grilled over a hot wood grill until lightly coloured. The small beans steamed inside the outer pod as it grilled. Eaten whole, the tender beans were served with a pot of aioli for dipping. Another great broad bean-related eatable are the leaves of the young broad bean plant. Fry them and serve as part of a salad along with the flowers, which carry a subtle flavour of fava but mostly look pretty on the plate.
Try making a simple Greek-style lamb stew or braise with spring onion and a little stock. When almost cooked, add a cup of podded broad beans with the skin intact and simmer for 15 minutes. Small frozen broad beans are good for this in the middle of winter when the fresh variety is not available. (Other than peas, broad beans are the only frozen vegetable I have used at home.) At the last moment add a handful of chopped dill and plenty of lemon juice to the lamb braise.
Results are presented of rocket and meteor research in the upper atmosphere during the past three years. Both methods have been valuable in determining the pressures, densities and temperatures in the upper atmosphere and variations with time and place above an altitude of 30 km. The basic atmospheric data are now rather well determined to 130 km over New Mexico. Knowledge of the composition of the atmosphere to 72 km depends solely upon rocket sampling techniques. A great deal of information has been obtained from the rocket measures concerning radiation from the sun in the far ultraviolet to wavelength about 800 Å and in the soft X-ray region below 20 Å.
A considerable section of the paper is devoted to the question of micro-meteorites, their existence and effect on the upper atmosphere. In addition, three Appendixes include some more recent information concerning temperatures and composition of the upper atmosphere and concerning high-frequency solar radiation.
MY NEPHEW John Hare, 5 years old, does not like coloring but loves making collages. Several of his creations -- a cotton-ball rabbit; a paper tree resplendent with real leaves and acorns; a feathered, turkey-shaped tracing of his hand -- grace the refrigerator of his Mechanicsville, Va., home. What's the big attraction of collage? John and other youngsters seem to enjoy the process of "building" a picture, the tactile quality of the various materials and the act of using everyday objects in different and creative ways. When winter weather keeps your kids indoors and whining for something to do, collage-making can be the perfect art activity. And it doesn't require any special art supplies. With collage, you and your kids can take what the house has to offer -- yarn, paper and fabric scraps, buttons, uncooked pasta, Q-tips, shells, toothpicks, etc. -- and transform it, with the help of some glue and a blank paper base, into, well, anything: rockets, angels, abstracts built around a certain color or shape (all blue objects, perhaps, or all round ones). Collage can also combine with other art forms. Kids might decorate a word-processed copy of a favorite poem. Or create a story or book with collage illustrations. Published children's books are rich with examples of collage or tactile art -- fun to look at and great for inspiring a kid's own ideas. Most preschoolers delight in stroking Daddy's sandpapery beard or sniffing the soap-smelling flowers in the classic "Pat the Bunny" by Dorothy Kunhardt (Golden Books, 1940, ages 2 to 4, $7.99). Youngsters respond readily to the vibrant colors in Eric Carle's best-selling "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" (Philomel, 1969, ages 2 to 5, $19.99), which chronicles a critter's eating adventures from egg to butterfly. Carle achieves this vibrancy by painting and then cutting his own papers into stylized shapes to create the whimsical caterpillar and other characters from his many popular titles. "I love the way a lot of odd things can be made to work together," says Susan Roth, an author/illustrator. Roth, who recently moved from Baltimore to Great Neck, N.Y., used collage techniques for all 24 of her award-winning children's books. She first worked with a palette of papers to achieve a uniform look but has since incorporated leaves, wallpaper and even cornmeal into her art, which is photographed to create the illustrations that appear in the books. Roth's books provide a visual adventure for all ages. The illustrations offer an intriguing treasure hunt as readers try to identify the various materials used. (Roth usually lists her materials on the copyright page.) Such playful seeking may jump-start a personal or family project. Kids might want to create a collage of their pets after reading "Cinnamon's Day Out: A Gerbil Adventure" (Dial, 1998, ages 3 to 8, $15.99). For this book, Roth used real wood chips, screening and paper towel tubes to fashion the world of an escaped, fuzzy-paper gerbil who journeys into a cut-paper city and encounters a fierce cat made of corrugated cardboard. In "Brave Martha and the Dragon" (Dial, 1996, ages 3 to 8, $14.99), Roth dressed her characters in fabric unique to Provence in this retelling of an ancient French folk tale -- an idea that could be a youngster's inspiration for a picture or scrapbook made of materials found on vacation. Those intrigued by collage might follow Roth's suggestion to "look at the world with big, wide eyes. Think about and try different ways of using things. And keep things for later if they interest you." Roth is already deep into her next project, a children's book her brother is writing about a small Mexican town renowned for guitar making. Saving south-of-the-border oilcloth and ribbons enables her to "capture the feel of the place." Although many of these books are written for those 8 years and under, older kids and adults will enjoy perusing them for insights on composition and style as their own work becomes more sophisticated. Those interested in collage may also wish to explore children's titles by Leo Lionni, Ezra Jack Keats and Lois Ehlert. Pick Up the Pieces Kids foraging for "stuff" to form their own pieces may find these how-to books helpful. "LOOK WHAT I DID WITH A LEAF" by Morteza Sohi (ages 4 and up, Walker, 1995, $5.95). A great guide to focusing on what's around you. The book shows kids how to collect and prepare leaves to make animals and offers tips on using the leaf animals as ornaments, place mats or stationery. It includes informative sections on the life cycle and identification of leaves. "STEP-BY-STEP COLLAGE" by Jim Robins and Philip Steele (ages 5 and up, Kingfisher, 1993, $5.95). A well-organized look at the many ways to create collage art, using everything from torn paper to dried beans. Instructions are easy to follow, and the illustrations and suggestions are quite inspirational. "YOU CAN MAKE A COLLAGE" by Eric Carle (ages 4 and up, Klutz, 1998, $19.95). Easy steps from the esteemed author/illustrator in choosing materials, cutting out shapes and assembling them into birds, flowers, fish and colorful abstracts. A wonderful bonus: Illustrations from Carle's books; 72 ready-to-use sheets of multicolored tissue paper; and four blank white boards to use as a base.
