Nikolai Chub. Nikolay Aleksandrovich Chub (; born 10 June 1984) is a cosmonaut selected by the Roscosmos space agency in 2012.

Biography
Prior to selection as a cosmonaut, Chub obtained a degree in management and informatics from the South-Russian State Technical University (Novocherkassk Polytechnic Institute) in 2006 as the top member of his class.  He subsequently obtained a graduate degree in economics from the same institution.

Prior to his selection as a cosmonaut, Chub directed the astronautics firm Space Tu, LLC.  He was selected as a cosmonaut candidate in 2012 and was named a test cosmonaut on June 16, 2014.

In 2019 Chub participated to the training ESA CAVES, organized by the European Space Agency, held between Italy and Slovenia.

Chub trained as a backup crewmember for the Soyuz MS-12 flight to the International Space Station, and in accordance with his Roscosmos biography, had been selected as a crewmember for the Soyuz MS-17 mission, but was subsequently replaced by American astronaut Kathleen Rubins.

In January 2022 Chub was denied without explanation a visa to the United States to visit the Johnson Space Center and to hold a five-week session there to get acquainted with the American segment of the ISS. Roscosmos considered that the decision of the American side threatens the safety of the astronaut on the ISS. After the publication of this information, a visa for a trip to the United States was issued to Chub a few days later.

Chub was again assigned as a backup crew member for Soyuz MS-22, and then flew on MS-24. He returned on Soyuz MS-25 after a year long mission in space.

Yayuan Liu. Yayuan Liu (born 1992) is a Chinese-American materials scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Her research considers electrochemistry, nanomaterials, and materials characterisation for the development of next-generation batteries. She was selected as one of the 2019 American Chemical Society Young Investigators and included in the 2021 Forbes 30 Under 30 list of top scientists.

Early life and education 
Liu is from China. She started her academic career at Nanyang Technological University, where she specialised in materials science and engineering. As an undergraduate student, she worked with Fengwei Huo on metal–organic frameworks. During her undergraduate studies, she spent a year at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, where she worked with Hong Yang on nanocrystals for electrocatalysis. After graduating from Nanyang Technological University in 2014 Liu returned to the United States, joining Yi Cui's laboratory to work on next-generation batteries. As a doctoral student at Stanford University, Liu developed a lithium fluoride coating technique that made use of Freon to passivate the lithium surfaces. By applying the coating to a graphene oxide electrodes, Liu managed to improve battery stability and Coulombic efficiency.

Research and career 
After earning her doctoral degree in 2019 Liu moved to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where she works alongside T. Alan Hatton on stimuli-responsive gas membranes. Broadly speaking, her work considers the design of new materials that allow high-capacity energy storage in electrochemistry applications. She has concentrated on lithium electrodes for next-generation batteries, which offer the potential for high specific capacities and low electrochemical potentials. Unfortunately, these electrodes are highly reactive and change volume during cycling. Liu has worked to minimise the change in volume through scaffold compositions, control the reactivity of the electrodes through solid electrolyte interfaces, and incorporate electrolyte additives to control the formation of interfaces.

Helical engine. The Helical engine is a proposed spacecraft propulsion drive that, like other reactionless drives, would violate the laws of physics.

The concept was proposed by David M. Burns, formerly a NASA engineer at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama, in a non-peer-reviewed report published on a NASA server in 2019 describing it as "A new concept for in-space propulsion is proposed in which propellant is not ejected from the engine, but instead is captured to create a nearly infinite specific impulse".

The Helical engine accelerates ions that are confined in a locked loop. Once they are accelerated, the system changes the velocity of the ions in order to change their momentum. Afterward, Burns hypothesized that the engine, by moving the ions along its axis, could produce thrust. The proposed engine is mainly intended to be used to maintain the orbit of satellite stations during long periods of time without the need of refueling.

Asakaze-class destroyer. The Asakaze-class destroyer is a class of destroyers of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Two ships of the  were lent by the United States Navy and were in commission from 1954 until 1969.

Development 
JDS Asakaze was commissioned as  on 28 November 1941 at Federal Shipbuilding and Drydock Company, and JDS Hatakaze was commissioned as  on 26 January 1942 at the Bath Iron Works.

In 1951, General Matthew Ridgway, Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, proposed to lend a patrol frigate (PF) and a landing support boat (LSSL) to Japan under Allied occupation. In response to this, on 26 April 1952, the Coastal Safety Force was established within the Japan Coast Guard to serve as a receiver for these warships and as the base of a future navy. Then, with the establishment of the National Safety Agency on 1 August, the same year, the Coast Guard was reorganized into a security force by absorbing the route enlightenment department of the Japan Coast Guard, and together with the National Police Reserve (later the National Safety Force), which is a land unit, it became a subordinate and was set up for a full-scale reorganization system.

Of the rented vessels, all 18 of the PFs were delivered during 1953 and commissioned as s, which later became the starting point for the development of the Maritime Self-Defense Force escort vessels. In the budget for 1952, which is the year when the guards were established, the construction of support vessels (water vessels, heavy oil vessels, etc.) to improve the operational base of these guard vessels was prioritized, and the construction of combat ships was not carried out. Although domestic construction of security vessels began in 1953, the construction in the same year was two 1,600-ton instep security vessels (DD; Harukaze class) and 1,000-ton B-type security vessels ( and ) It was fastened to 3 ships.

Refraction networking. Refraction networking, also known as decoy routing, is a research anti-censorship approach that would allow users to circumvent a censor without using any individual proxy servers. Instead, it implements proxy functionality at the core of partner networks, such as those of Internet service providers, outside the censored country. These networks would discreetly provide censorship circumvention for "any connection that passes through their networks." This prevents censors from selectively blocking proxy servers and makes censorship more expensive, in a strategy similar to collateral freedom.

The approach was independently invented by teams at the University of Michigan, the University of Illinois, and Raytheon BBN Technologies. There are five existing protocols: Telex, TapDance, Cirripede, Curveball, and Rebound. These teams are now working together to develop and deploy refraction networking with support from the U.S. Department of State.

Albin 82 MS. The Albin 82 MS is a Swedish sailboat design that was designed by Per Brohäll as motorsailer and first built in 1975.

Production
The design was built by Albin Marine in Sweden, starting in 1975, but it is now out of production.

Design
The Albin 82 MS is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig with aluminum spars, a deck-stepped mast, wire standing rigging and a single set of unswept spreaders. The hull has a raked stem, a plumb transom, with a swim ladder, a centre cockpit, skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a wheel, an auxiliary tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces  and carries  of ballast. A self-draining anchor locker is provided at the bow.

The boat has a draft of  with the standard keel.

The boat is fitted with a Volvo Penta MD17C diesel engine of  for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds  and the fresh water tank has a capacity of .

The design has sleeping accommodation for six people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, a double straight settee and drop-down table in the main cabin and two quarter berths aft. The galley is located on the port side forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove and a sink with foot-pumped fresh and sea water. The enclosed head is located just aft of the galley on the port side. The design also has a dining table in the cockpit.

For sailing the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker of . It has a hull speed of .

Operational history
A May 1977 review in Boating magazine stated, "the Albin 82 MS is aimed at one such niche that few U.S. boatbuilders have catered to in the past - small motorsailers. After spending an afternoon aboard an Albin 82 in Ft. Lauderdale this winter, we'd say she's right on target. High freeboard, a chopped-off stern, and a pronounced trunk cabin give the Albin a rather stubby look, but we find her appearance inoffensive and suited to her purpose—she's not meant to be a gazelle, after all. Her fixed windshield might also look out of place aboard a sailboat at first glance, but again it goes along with her motorsailer role of leisurely cruising in comfort."

A January 1977 review by Betsy Hitz in Cruising World magazine, noted that the boat is "a motorsailer in the truest sense of the word, the 82 MS was designed to perform equally well under power or sail, or a combination of both. Maximum safety and ease of handling characterize her rig and deck layout. The cockpit is deep and well protected with a dodger as standard equipment. Two steering positions are provided: a tiller aft, and a wheel-steering station at the forward end of the cockpit, with instruments and helmsman's seat.
