Columbia Space Shuttle Disaster
The Columbia space shuttle disaster occurred on February 1, 2003 when the shuttle broke apart upon reentry into the Earth's atmosphere, killing all seven crew members. An investigation found that a piece of foam insulation broke off during launch and damaged the shuttle's heat shield, allowing hot gases to penetrate during reentry and cause the breakup. The disaster was caused by both physical defects and organizational issues at NASA such as a lack of oversight and safety culture. The investigation made recommendations to improve safety practices and risk assessment.
kalpana chawla
Kalpana Chawla (March 17, 1962[2][a] – February 1, 2003) was the first Indian-American astronaut[3] and first Indian woman in space.[4] She first flew on Space Shuttle Columbia in 1997 as a mission specialist and primary robotic arm operator.
CANADA IN SPACE
Canada has played an important role in space exploration by being the third nation to launch a satellite into space in 1962. Canada further contributed the Canadarm robotic arm to NASA's space shuttle program in 1981 to transport astronauts and equipment outside the shuttle. More recently, Canada helped develop the robotic arm for the International Space Station and provided instrumentation for NASA's Phoenix and Curiosity Mars rovers, demonstrating Canada's ongoing collaborations to advance space research.

Jack Oughton - Galileo, The Telescope and The Church.doc
This document provides background on Galileo Galilei and the scientific revolution. It summarizes Galileo's key discoveries and arguments in support of Copernican theory, including observations of Jupiter's moons, the phases of Venus, and sunspots. It describes the resistance Galileo faced from the Catholic Church and other supporters of Aristotelian philosophy. The Church banned Copernican theory in 1616 and warned Galileo not to defend it, though he continued his scientific work. This set the stage for Galileo's trial by the Inquisition in 1632 over his book supporting Copernicanism.

The document provides biographical information about multiple famous astronomers and astronauts:
1) Neil Armstrong was the first person to walk on the moon. He was born in 1930 in Ohio and graduated from Purdue University with a degree in engineering.
2) John Glenn was the first American to orbit Earth. He was a naval aviator and test pilot born in 1921 in Ohio.
3) Johannes Kepler was a famous astronomer born in 1571 who made important discoveries about planetary motion and published works on astronomy.
Jack oughton siderius nunciius
SideriusNuncius, also known as The Starry Messenger, was a 56-page scientific treatise published in 1610 by Galileo Galilei describing his astronomical observations using the newly invented telescope. In it, he described observing the surfaces of the moon, the Milky Way resolved into individual stars, and four of Jupiter's moons, which provided evidence against the Ptolemaic geocentric model of the universe. The work was important as the first scientific treatise addressing the telescope and its observations, demonstrating the scientific method and establishing observational astronomy as a field.
Galileo Galilei
Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) was an Italian scientist who made significant contributions to astronomy and physics during the Scientific Revolution. Some of his key accomplishments included discovering Jupiter's four largest moons, observing the phases of Venus which supported the heliocentric model of the solar system, improving the telescope, and experimentally studying motion and sound. However, Galileo's scientific findings contradicted the geocentric view of the Catholic Church and resulted in him being sentenced to house arrest for the last years of his life.
Introduction to cosmology
1) The document discusses ancient Greek and early modern scientific models of cosmology and the solar system. It describes models proposed by thinkers like Aristotle, Ptolemy, Copernicus, Brahe, Galileo and Kepler.
2) Key events included Galileo's observations of Jupiter's moons and Venus' phases, which supported Copernicus' heliocentric model over the Ptolemaic geocentric one. Brahe made accurate observations without telescopes that challenged Aristotelian ideas.
3) Kepler developed his laws of planetary motion based on Brahe's observations, establishing elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focus and relationships between orbital periods and distances. This provided strong evidence for the Copernican model of a Sun-
Galileo Galilei
Galileo made important contributions in multiple areas of science in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. He invented the thermometer in 1593, using the expansion and contraction of gas in a glass bulb to measure temperature. In 1597, he improved the design of the compass for both military and civilian uses like navigation. In 1609, Galileo constructed his own telescope, which had improved lenses allowing for higher magnification and the right-side up viewing of objects. He also worked on designs for the pendulum clock in 1641. Galileo made many astronomical discoveries, including Jupiter's four largest moons and the phases of Venus which supported Copernicus' heliocentric model of the solar system.

Astronomy by victor r
Ancient cultures like the Chinese, Egyptians, and Babylonians began recording the motions of celestial objects like the sun, moon, and planets over 5,000 years ago to track seasons and plan activities. The Golden Age of astronomy from 600 BC to AD 150 centered in Greece, where scientists like Aristotle and Eratosthenes made early attempts to measure the size and distances of astronomical bodies using geometry and trigonometry. Later, Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo and Newton developed the heliocentric model of the solar system and laws of planetary motion through observations and mathematical analysis, overturning the geocentric Ptolemaic model that had dominated for over 1,000 years. Their work established modern astronomy and understanding of

Astronomy.pptx
Astronomy is the scientific study of celestial objects beyond Earth's atmosphere. It has split into observational and theoretical branches since the 20th century. Nicolaus Copernicus proposed a model with the Sun at the center in the 16th century, though planets still seemed to deviate from perfect circular orbits. Tycho Brahe made precise measurements, which Johannes Kepler used to discover the three laws of planetary motion, including that orbits are elliptical. Modern astronomy began with the Space Age in the 1950s with the launch of Sputnik and the space race between the USSR and US. Major events included Gagarin and Shepard's space flights and the Apollo moon landings. Theories of solar system and galaxy formation continue to be
The History of Astronomy
The document traces the development of scientific understanding of the solar system from ancient times to the modern era. It describes early geocentric models proposed by Anaximander and Ptolemy that placed Earth at the center. Later thinkers such as Aristarchus, Copernicus, and Galileo proposed heliocentric models with the Sun at the center. Kepler determined orbits were elliptical rather than circular, and Newton explained planetary motion through universal gravity. Edwin Hubble's discovery of an expanding universe led to the development of the Big Bang theory.
PPT ASTRONOMY COPERNICAN REVOLUTION.pptx
This document discusses the Copernican Revolution in astronomy. It explains that early models placed Earth at the center of the universe, but they could not explain observations of planetary motion. Copernicus proposed that the Sun, not Earth, is at the center of the solar system. Galileo then used a telescope to observe features of the moon, sunspots, and Jupiter's moons that supported Copernicus' model. Kepler analyzed detailed observations by Tycho Brahe to develop his three laws of planetary motion, establishing that planets move in ellipses with the Sun at one focus. Galileo and Kepler's work revolutionized astronomy by displacing Earth from the center and establishing the foundations of modern science.
A. history of astronomy
1. The document discusses the history of astronomy from ancient Greek ideas of a geocentric universe to Copernicus' heliocentric model.
2. Key figures discussed include Ptolemy, who developed the geocentric model that dominated for over 1000 years, and Copernicus, who proposed placing the Sun at the center.
3. Kepler later determined that planets orbit in ellipses rather than circles, establishing his three laws of planetary motion.

Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
