The Avro Blue Steel was a British air-launched,rocket-propelled nuclear armed standoff missile,built to arm the V bomber force. It allowed the bomber to launch the missile against its target while still outside the range of surface-to-air missiles (SAMs). The missile proceeded to the target at speeds up to Mach 3,and would trigger within 100 m of the pre-defined target point.
Ernst Waldfried Josef Wenzel Mach was a Czech physicist and philosopher,who contributed to the physics of shock waves. The ratio of the speed of a flow or object to that of sound is named the Mach number in his honour. As a philosopher of science,he was a major influence on logical positivism and American pragmatism. Through his criticism of Isaac Newton's theories of space and time,he foreshadowed Albert Einstein's theory of relativity.
Supersonic speed is the speed of an object that exceeds the speed of sound (Mach 1). For objects traveling in dry air of a temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) at sea level,this speed is approximately 343.2 m/s. Speeds greater than five times the speed of sound (Mach 5) are often referred to as hypersonic. Flights during which only some parts of the air surrounding an object,such as the ends of rotor blades,reach supersonic speeds are called transonic. This occurs typically somewhere between Mach 0.8 and Mach 1.2.
GNU Mach is an implementation of the Mach microkernel. It is the default microkernel in the GNU Hurd. GNU Mach runs on IA-32 machines. GNU Mach is maintained by developers on the GNU project. It is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).
The Vienna Circle of logical empiricism was a group of elite philosophers and scientists drawn from the natural and social sciences,logic and mathematics who met regularly from 1924 to 1936 at the University of Vienna,chaired by Moritz Schlick. The Vienna Circle had a profound influence on 20th-century philosophy,especially philosophy of science and analytic philosophy.
The Bell X-2 was an X-plane research aircraft built to investigate flight characteristics in the Mach 2–3 range. The X-2 was a rocket-powered,swept-wing research aircraft developed jointly in 1945 by Bell Aircraft Corporation,the United States Air Force and the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) to explore aerodynamic problems of supersonic flight and to expand the speed and altitude regimes obtained with the earlier X-1 series of research aircraft.
The Cornsweet illusion,also known as the Craik–O'Brien–Cornsweet illusion or the Craik–Cornsweet illusion,is an optical illusion that was described in detail by Tom Cornsweet in the late 1960s. Kenneth Craik and Vivian O'Brien had made earlier observations in a similar vein.
MkLinux is an open-source software computer operating system begun by the Open Software Foundation Research Institute and Apple Computer in February 1996,to port Linux to the PowerPC platform,and Macintosh computers. The name refers to the Linux kernel being adapted to run as a server hosted on the Mach microkernel,version 3.0.
The NASA X-43 was an experimental unmanned hypersonic aircraft with multiple planned scale variations meant to test various aspects of hypersonic flight. It was part of the X-plane series and specifically of NASA's Hyper-X program developed in the late 1990s. It set several airspeed records for jet aircraft. The X-43 is the fastest jet-powered aircraft on record at approximately Mach 9.6.
Trusted Operating System (TOS) generally refers to an operating system that provides sufficient support for multilevel security and evidence of correctness to meet a particular set of government requirements.
The air-sol moyenne portée is a French nuclear air-launched cruise missile manufactured by MBDA France. In French nuclear doctrine,it is referred to as a "pre-strategic" weapon,the last-resort "warning shot" prior to a full-scale employment of strategic nuclear weapons launched from the Triomphant-class ballistic missile submarines. The missile's development was undertaken by Aérospatiale's Tactical Missile Division,now part of MBDA.
Abner Ronald Jenkins,also known as the Beetle,MACH-1,MACH-2,MACH-3,MACH-IV,MACH-V,MACH-VII and MACH-X,is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist Carl Burgos,he debuted in Strange Tales #123 as the original Beetle,a supervillain wearing an armor plated,mechanical suit he had designed himself after growing frustrated with his ordinary job as an aircraft mechanic and deciding to turn to crime. Although in his first appearance he fought the Human Torch and the Thing of the Fantastic Four,later storylines established Jenkins as a recurring foe of Spider-Man,usually working as a henchman for various criminal organizations opposing the hero. Jenkins later formed his own criminal organization known as the Sinister Syndicate.
Llanvaches or Llanfaches is a village and community parish within the boundaries of the city of Newport,Wales. It lies to the east of the urban area,in the historic county of Monmouthshire and the preserved county of Gwent. The population rose to 402 by the 2011 census.
The AQM-60 Kingfisher,originally designated XQ-5,was a target drone version of the USAF's X-7 ramjet test aircraft built by the Lockheed Corporation. The aircraft was designed by Kelly Johnson,who later created the Lockheed A-12 and its relatives,such as the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird and Lockheed YF-12.
Mach 3 is a 1987 3D shoot 'em up video game by Loriciels for Amiga,Amstrad CPC,Atari ST,MSX,Thomson TO7,ZX Spectrum and DOS. The DOS (PC) version uses CGA 320x200 video mode.
Petr Mach is a Czech economist and former Member of the European Parliament. He is the founder of the Party of Free Citizens which he led until 2017 when he was replaced by TomášPajonk.
Darling is a free and open-source macOS compatibility layer for Linux. It duplicates functions of macOS by providing alternative implementations of the libraries and frameworks that macOS programs call. This method of duplication differs from other methods that might also be considered emulation,where macOS programs run in a virtual machine. Darling has been called the counterpart to WINE for running macOS apps.
KD-88 (Kongdi-88) is a standoff land attack missile built by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC). Its export version is called TL-17. It can be launched from a fighter aircraft or a bomber. It features a turbojet engine with cruising speeds of Mach 0.8 to Mach 0.85,and a range of 200 kilometres (120 mi). Although comparable in size,configuration and capabilities,the KD-88 is not a true member of YJ-8 family.
The Ford Mustang Mach-E is a battery electric compact crossover SUV produced by Ford. Introduced on November 17,2019,it went on sale in December 2020 as a 2021 model. The Mach-E is part of the Mustang series,with its name inspired by the Mach 1 variant of the first-generation Mustang. The car won the 2021 North American SUV of the Year Award.
Trine Pertou Mach is a Danish politician serving as Member of the Folketing for the Red–Green Alliance since the 2022 election. She previously served as Member of the Folketing for the Green Left from 2013 to 2015,but switched to the Red-Green Alliance in 2022.
