T. Stanhope Sprigg. Wing Commander Theodore Stanhope Sprigg (12 May 1903 - 8 June 1977) was a British magazine editor. His father, Stanhope W. Sprigg, had been the first editor of The Windsor Magazine.  Sprigg and his brother started a publishing company, Airways Publications, in 1924, and published Airways, a magazine about air travel.  Over the next few years they added other titles, including Aircraft Engineering, Flying, and Who's Who in British Aviation.  He earned a pilot's license in 1931.

In 1934 he proposed to publisher Newnes four fiction titles: Air Stories, Fantasy, War Stories, and Western Adventures. The first to appear was Air Stories, in May 1935; War Stories was begun in October 1935, but only lasted five issues.  It was replaced by Western Adventures in February 1936, which also failed after only five issues.  Fantasy was delayed for several years, perhaps because Scoops, the first attempt at a British science fiction magazine, had proved to be a failure in 1934.  It was finally launched in 1938, and produced three issues over the next year.  Air Stories was the most successful of the four, lasting five years on a regular monthly schedule.  However, Sprigg was in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, and when World War II began he was called up and both Air Stories and Fantasy ceased publication.

Sprigg left the RAFVR in 1954 with rank of wing commander.

Michael J. Walter. Michael J. Walter is an American experimental petrologist at Earth and Planetary Laboratory (EPL, formally Geophysical Lab and Department of Terrestrial Magnetism) of the Carnegie Institution of Washington. He is also the director of EPL. He was on Editorial Board of JGR: Solid Earth from 2012 to 2018. Michael studies how rocks behave when transported to deep Earth interiors and associated elemental behaviors. He also uses super-deep diamonds to study the how Earth's mantle works.

Research 
Walter uses experimental petrology to research on early Earth's history, when the planet just formed from accretion of the cloud of gas and dust surrounding our young Sun, and when distinct layers of Earth's mantle and core start to take shape. He also investigates physical properties of deep materials in Earth's interior, focusing on extracting information about mantle conditions from tiny compositional variations preserved inside diamonds.

Chrysler Airflow (EV). The Chrysler Airflow is a concept mid-size crossover SUV developed by Chrysler.

Launch and development 

The Chrysler Airflow Vision Concept was announced by the FCA USA at CES 2020 ahead of its official presentation two years later at CES 2022. A production-ready concept made its debut at the 2022 New York International Auto Show.

The Airflow is named after the original Chrysler Airflow, the first car whose design took into account the importance of aerodynamics. The goal is to show an evolution of the automobile as did its ancestor.

Specifications 
The Airflow is equipped with an electric motor and a futuristic design. Shaped like a compact SUV, the lines are fluid but muscular. The wheels are wrapped in their arches, and the grille features an illuminated Chrysler winged logo. Inside, all of the equipment is digital with the exception of the start button and the steering wheel navigation keys. The screen interface is customizable, each passenger having access to vehicle information in real time.  The vehicle control system will be one of the first to leverage the STLA Brain software architecture, an AI driven driver assist and experience ecosystem for Stellantis vehicles.

Production 
While the Airflow was making its way to a production schedule, in mid 2023, the head of design indicated that an already in progress alternative design would take over for the design that the public had seen for the previous two years.  An estimated 2025 model year vehicle is still planned as the redesign was already underway when the announcement was shared.
