Space Race: Photos That Will Capture Your ImaginationVignanaOrg
Technological developments in the mid-20th Century made space travel possible. Humans, for thousands of years, had always looked up at the sky and wondered. There was a lot of curiosity about what lies above the Earth, in the heavens.
The invention of rockets and space probes made it possible for the first time to get out of Earth and actually see and sometimes go to heavenly bodies. Human beings, for the first time in thousands of years, traveled out of the Earth. But the Space Race was actually accelerated by the geopolitical competition between two opposing superpowers.
Both nations, USA and USSR, tried their best to be the first in many things in space. USSR was leading initially in the space race with its spectacular achievements. The USA was also catching up with its rockets and space probes.
Americans finally became the first to land humans on the moon in 1969, a big achievement. The pace of the space race slowed after that and there was even coloration between the superpowers in the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project in 1975.

Essay on History Of Space Exploration
Exploration; to travel in a little known region for discovery, as defined by Webster. Since the age of the Greeks, Anglo Saxons have been interested in space exploration. From Copernicus to Gaileo to Newton, space has been looked upon with adoring eyes. Space has been regarded time after time as the final frontier.
That was until 1957, with the launch of the Sputnik 1, when the Soviet built satellite became the first man made satellite successfully launched out into outer space. In 1958, the United States matched the Soviets with their own satellite, Explorer III. After that, it became a free for all out into the darkest regions of the final frontier. The ascension into space for the United States started off with rockets, satellites,...show more content...On August 27th, 1962, the US achieved the world s first successful interplanetary spacecraft when the Mariner 2 was launched. It arrived at Venus at a distance of 34,800 kilometers and scanned its surface with infrared and microwave radiometers. It also captured data that showed Venus surface to be about 425 C.
(Hamilton) On November 28th, 1964 the Mariner 4 was launched. It gave the first glimpse of Mars at close range, traveling within 9,920 kilometers of Mars surface. It also confirmed Mar s thin atmosphere of carbon dioxide. (Cook)On November 3rd, 1973, Mariner 10 was launched. It was the first dual planet mission.
It recorded Venus temperature to be 23 C and produced 10,000 pictures of Mercury covering 57% of the planet s surface. It also recorded the surface temperatures ranging from 187 C on the day side and 183 C on the night side. (Hamilton) Furthermore, it was also the first

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. A5 THE HISTORY OF
RUSSIA THE COLD WAR
SPACE RACE – CLASS 5
ENCORE – FALL 2011 –
SPRING 2012
Joe Boisvert – Gulf Coast State College
2.
3.
4. Nazi Space
Program
The official picture:
A4 (V2) as a missile.
According to an
unofficial agenda
from Peenemünde
this was only a first
step on the road to
space flight. Sketch
made in
Peenemünde.
5. Both the USSR and the US
Benefited From German Scientist
The US let in German Scientist before, during
and after the WW2. We developed the “bomb”
first in great part due to German Scientist.
German Rocket Science also key!
The USSR Captured Many German Scientist
after WW2 – Due to Spying and the use of
Captured German Scientist and Equipment the
USSR developed Atomic Weapons Capability
and started Space Race
6. Dr. Werner von Braun, left, the head of the Nazi rocket program, was brought to
America after the war because our government considered his knowledge and
expertise too vital to fall into enemy hands.
7. The Space Race – Soviet vs US
During the Cold War, both the United States
and the Soviet Union endeavored to
demonstrate their power.
The space race served as an opportunity for
the two nations to showcase their scientific
and technological capabilities.
Amidst propaganda, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R.
competed for superiority in space as they
constantly tried to top each other.
8. Spying From Space
The race to employ spy satellites has
been ongoing. It dates back to the very
beginnings of the space age.
The Soviets and ourselves were locked
in a data gathering race that is still
taking place at this very moment, but
the stage has changed and there are a
lot more players now.
9. Fighting and Spying
from Space
The very first space craft to have
a weapon on it was launched
from the old Soviet Union.
The MOL program in the 60’s the
US was able to see an object that
was under 2 inches in size from
100 miles up in space
The Soviet Union later developed
one capable of seeing an object
3” from 300 Miles
10. US had U-2 Spy Planes
During the cold war we developed the U-2 spy plane.
In its day it was a miracle.
It could fly at over 60,000 feet and was thought to be
safe since it was felt that this was beyond the range of
Soviet antiaircraft missiles.
We began flying this plane over the old Soviet Union to
gather data on their missiles and such, but as we did,
the Soviets were advancing the capabilities of their
defensives and were able to increase the range of their
antiaircraft missiles and shoot down one of our U-2 spy
planes.
12. . Then Space Flight with Animals.
Due to the fear of burn-up in reentry and
contamination by space germs, the first space
flights planned were in the form of unmanned
satellite launches
In 1957 the Soviets
successfully launched
the unmanned
satellite, Sputnik I, into
orbit sending millions
of Americans into
shock
13. Sputnik Program – Soviet Union
The second Sputnik satellite (Sputnik 2) was launched on
November 3, 1957. It carried a dog named Laika. Information
was sent back for about a week and the dog was put to sleep.
The last Sputnik (Sputnik 3) was launched on May 15, 1958. It
was in orbit for 2 years. This Sputnik was intended to be a
space laboratory to study the Earth’s magnetic field and
radiation belt. This one could actually hold cameras and other
data transmitters. It was the most technological of the three.
The Sputnik satellites started the space travel development.
That is how the U.S. started to develop new spacecrafts. If it
weren’t for Sputnik, we wouldn’t have been the first people on
the moon.
14. In conclusion, Sputnik started the space race.
It started a huge revolution. Sputnik changed
our world.
15. Sheppard First US Astronaut in Space
Cold War rival USSR had flown cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin first --
less than a month before on a flight that was higher and longer --
and some in the nascent NASA thought the space race was
already lost.
17. Chinese Space Program
The succesful launching of the Shenzhou V, the Divine Vessel,
on 15 October 2003, withtaikonaut Yang Liwei on board,
marked a giant leap forward in the Chinese space program that
saw its origins in the 1960s.
18. China launched its second manned spacecraft,
The launch is part of a more encompassing space
program that includes space walks, the docking of a
capsule with a space module and the launch of a
permanent space lab.
19. The United States Reaches the Moon 1969
Kennedy's goal was accomplished with the Apollo 11 mission when
astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed their Lunar Module (LM)
on the Moon on July 20, 1969 and walked on its surface
21. “Most of the space program were related
to the Cold War crises of the early 1960s,
in which space flight served as a surrogate
for face-to-face military confrontation
22. The end of the Cold War rivalry in space between the two great
superpowers is easy to spot: It was the famous handshake
between Soviet space commander Alexei Leonov and Nasa
astronaut Tom Stafford when their two vehicles docked together in
orbit.
