AN/AAS-38
The Lockheed Martin AN/AAS-38 Nite Hawk is a high-resolution FLIR, laser designator, and laser tracker pod system for use with laser-guided munitions. The US Navy used the AAS-38 on the F/A-18C/D Hornet and F-14D Tomcat in combination with the AN/AAS-50 navigation FLIR pod for laser-guided munitions delivery.

The system provides real-time target data allowing the pilot to locate, identify, track and engage targets.: 4  It allows the aircraft to perform high-speed low-altitude interdiction and close air support missions at night in visibility conditions reduced by smoke, dust, smog or haze.: 4  In combination with the AAS-50 and a pair of night vision goggles, the Nite Hawk provides the capability to maintain situational awareness, navigate and avoid terrain, acquire and designate targets, and assess battle damage after deployment of munitions.: 4

Forward-looking infrared
Forward-looking infrared (FLIR) cameras, typically used on military and civilian aircraft, use a thermographic camera that senses infrared radiation.

The sensors installed in forward-looking infrared cameras, as well as those of other thermal imaging cameras, use detection of infrared radiation, typically emitted from a heat source (thermal radiation), to create an image assembled for video output.

They can be used to help pilots and drivers steer their vehicles at night and in fog, or to detect warm objects against a cooler background. The wavelength of infrared that thermal imaging cameras detect is 3 to 12 μm and differs significantly from that of night vision, which operates in the visible light and near-infrared ranges (0.4 to 1.0  μm).

HD 143787
HD 143787 is a single star in the southern constellation of Scorpius. It is a fifth magnitude star – apparent visual magnitude of 4.973, and hence is visible to the unaided eye. The distance to HD 143787 can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 14.4 mas, yielding a separation of 227 light years. It is moving closer to Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −37.9 km/s, and should come within 106.4 ly in 1.2 million years.

This is an evolved giant star with a stellar classification of K3 III. It is a red clump giant, which means it is on the horizontal branch and is generating energy through helium fusion at its core. At the age of 4.46 billion years, it has 1.25 times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 61.7 times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,370 K.

Horizontal branch
The horizontal branch (HB) is a stage of stellar evolution that immediately follows the red-giant branch in stars whose masses are similar to the Sun's. Horizontal-branch stars are powered by helium fusion in the core (via the triple-alpha process) and by hydrogen fusion (via the CNO cycle) in a shell surrounding the core. The onset of core helium fusion at the tip of the red-giant branch causes substantial changes in stellar structure, resulting in an overall reduction in luminosity, some contraction of the stellar envelope, and the surface reaching higher temperatures.

Index of politics articles
Politics is the process by which groups of people make decisions on behalf of governing a specific society. The term usually refers to actions pertaining to  civil governments, but the word has also been applied to other areas of human group interactions, including corporate, academic, and religious institutions. Politics consists of social relations involving authority or power.  Topics related to this area include political philosophy, which seeks a rationale for politics and answers regarding the best form of society, and public administration, which examines the practices of governance.

Opposition to immigration
Opposition to immigration is a political position that seeks to restrict or ban legal and illegal immigration. In the modern sense, immigration refers to the entry of people from one state or territory into another state or territory in which they are not citizens. Illegal immigration occurs when people immigrate to a country without having official permission to do so. Opposition to immigration ranges from calls for various immigration reforms, to proposals to completely restrict immigration, to calls for repatriation of existing immigrants.
Bang-Yen Chen
Chen Bang-yen (traditional Chinese: 陳邦彦; born October 3, 1943) is a Taiwanese-American mathematician who works mainly on differential geometry and related subjects. He was a University Distinguished Professor of Michigan State University from 1990 to 2012 until his retirement. After 2012, he became University Distinguished Professor Emeritus.

Minimal surface
In mathematics, a minimal surface is a surface that locally minimizes its area. This is equivalent to having zero mean curvature (see definitions below).

The term "minimal surface" is used because these surfaces originally arose as surfaces that minimized total surface area subject to some constraint. Physical models of area-minimizing minimal surfaces can be made by dipping a wire frame into a soap solution, forming a soap film, which is a minimal surface whose boundary is the wire frame. However, the term is used for more general surfaces that may self-intersect or do not have constraints. For a given constraint there may also exist several minimal surfaces with different areas (for example, see minimal surface of revolution): the standard definitions only relate to a local optimum, not a global optimum.
Tsubasa (wrestler)

Vice-President of Fiji
The position of the vice-president of the Republic of Fiji was created in 1990, to provide a constitutional successor to the president of Fiji, in the event of the latter's death or resignation, or of his otherwise being unable to carry out his duties.
