Burnelli UB-14. The Burnelli UB-14 and a developed variant named OA-1 Clyde Clipper were 1930s American prototype lifting-fuselage airliners designed by Vincent Burnelli, who was responsible for constructing the first two examples.

Design and development
Following on from his earlier designs Vincent Burnelli designed a commercial transport version using the lifting-fuselage concept. Burnelli's designs were based on the idea that an airfoil-section fuselage could contribute to the lift generated. The Burnelli UB-14 first flew in 1934, and had an airfoil-section fuselage that formed the centre-section of the wing. The aircraft had twin tailbooms and a widespan tailplane and elevator fitted with twin fins and rudders. The UB-14 had retractable landing gear and was powered by two Pratt & Whitney radial engines.  An enclosed cockpit for the crew of two was located on the centre wing's upper surface. The cabin could hold 14 to 18 passengers.

Operational history
The first prototype, UB-14, was destroyed in a 1935 accident attributed to faulty maintenance on the aileron control system. 
Burnelli then designed and built an improved version, the UB-14B. An extensively modified version of the UB-14B design was built under licence in the United Kingdom by Cunliffe-Owen Aircraft, powered by two Bristol Perseus XIVC radials as the Cunliffe-Owen OA-1 Clyde Clipper. The UB-14B was to have been built by Scottish Aviation, but with more streamlined inline engines.

Burnelli applied to the CAA for approval to fly a transatlantic flight with Clyde Edward Pangborn as the pilot in September 1936, however it failed its airworthiness certification due to an excessively long takeoff run and poor quality control. Its performance was later tested at A&AEE Boscombe Down in 1939.

After appropriate work, in June 1941 Jim Mollison and an Air Transport Auxiliary crew delivered the Cunliffe-Owen OA-1, now registered as G-AFMB to Fort Lamy, Chad. It was then fitted out as a personal transport for General De Gaulle. At one time it landed in Vichy France while en route to Fort Lamy. It was later abandoned at RAF Kabrit in Egypt, and burned during VJ-Day celebrations.

Variants
UB-14 Prototype, powered by Pratt & Whitney engines, registered as NX14740. Built by Burnelli Company. Destroyed  13 January 1935, without injury.  
UB-14B Second prototype with modifications, registered as NC15320. Built by Burnelli Company. Exported to Nicaragua in 1943 as AN-ABH.
OA-1 Third prototype, registered as G-AFMB, built by Cunliffe-Owen Aircraft under licence with further modifications, in the United Kingdom.

Britten Sheriff. 

The Britten Sheriff SA-1 was a light twin-piston engine aircraft developed in the United Kingdom in the 1970s. It was intended to be produced outside of the UK, but the company went into receivership in 1984 and the aircraft was never completed.

Development

Aircraft engineer John Britten, who had been instrumental in founding Britten-Norman, left the company in February 1976.  After that, he began development of an economical four-place light twin aircraft, the Sheriff.  It was a low-wing cantilever monoplane with twin tails and a tractor engine in a nacelle on each wing.  Of all-metal construction (with a fiberglass nose section on the fuselage), it was fitted with fixed tricycle undercarriage and accommodated the pilot and three passengers under a bubble canopy.

Britten planned two versions of the aircraft, a two-place trainer and a four-place touring aircraft.  Target price of the trainer was £25,000 and of the touring version was £29,000.  By comparison, at that time the price of the Piper PA-34 Seneca was around £58,000. Development was to be in UK with production licences then sold worldwide.

The project team included Denis Berryman (chief designer for the Sheriff and former chief designer at Britten-Norman), Maurice Brennan (formerly of Hawker, Saro and Vickers), Ken Mills (former production director at B-N, and before that chief production engineer at Vickers).

Sheriff Aerospace went into receivership in 1984 with the aircraft said to be nearly complete. Although Centrul National Aeronautic of Romania was interested in producing the aircraft it could not fund development.
The prototype (registered G-FRJB) was never completed, and in 1986, was acquired by East Midlands Aeropark at East Midlands Airport.  the prototype is preserved there and has since been restored as the only of its type in the world.

Brochet MB.70. The Brochet MB.70 was a two-seat light aircraft developed in France in the early 1950s for recreational flying and amateur construction.

Design and development
It was a high-wing braced monoplane of conventional configuration that seated the pilot and passenger in tandem within a fully enclosed cabin. It was fitted with fixed tailwheel undercarriage layout and was of all-wooden construction. Progress was hastened by the publication of a Service de l'Aviation Légère et Sportive requirement for a new light aircraft for French aeroclubs, and a series of development machines were built with a variety of different engines, eventually leading to the definitive Brochet MB.80.

Variants
 MB.70 - prototype powered by Salmson 9Adb radial (1 built)

Features
This series is known as various superheroes similar to the Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, and Metal Hero Series. However, these shows mainly focus on cute robots similar to Robocon, cute and unusual creatures, masked individuals who get tracked down by school children, and magical girls.

Each one is supposed to invoke mysterious humor; hence the name fushigi, which means "mystery" in Japanese. This series of programs was shown throughout the 1980s and ended in the early 1990s. All these programs were created by Shotaro Ishinomori, creator of the Kamen Rider, Super Sentai and Robocon series of manga and tokusatsu, as well as many other Toei Superheroes.

This series is divided into three subcategories:
 Robot and extra terrestrials : from Robot 8-chan to Morimori Bokkun.
 Children's detective team : Hardgumi and Maringumi.
 Magical girl : from Magical Chinese Girl Paipai! to Keeping-Words Sisters Chouchoutrian

Especially, the subcategory magical girl is known as "a gateway to female entertainers", female entertainers who starred in this magical girl series were selected for variety shows and anime theme songs after this series. Among them, Wakako Shimazaki who starred in "Magical Chinese Girl Ipanema!" has survived in the entertainment world until today in 2021.

Lanthanum strontium cobalt ferrite. Lanthanum strontium cobalt ferrite (LSCF), also called lanthanum strontium cobaltite ferrite is a specific ceramic oxide derived from lanthanum cobaltite of the ferrite group. It is a phase containing lanthanum(III) oxide, strontium oxide, cobalt oxide and iron oxide with the formula , where 0.1≤x≤0.4 and 0.2≤y≤0.8.

It is black in color and crystallizes in a distorted hexagonal perovskite structure. LSCF undergoes phase transformations at various temperatures depending on the composition. This material is a mixed ionic electronic conductor with comparatively high electronic conductivity (200+ S/cm) and good ionic conductivity (0.2 S/cm). It is typically non-stoichiometric and can be reduced further at high temperature in low oxygen partial pressures or in the presence of a reducing agent such as carbon.

LSCF is being investigated as a material for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell cathodes and, potentially as a direct carbon fuel cell anode.

LSCF is also investigated as a membrane material for separation of oxygen from air, for use in e.g. cleaner burning power plants.

SIAI-Marchetti S.205. The SIAI-Marchetti S.205 is an Italian four-seat, single-engine, light airplane, manufactured by SIAI-Marchetti. The S.205 made its maiden flight in 1965. The Italian Air Force employs a version called S.208.

Development
The S.205 was the brainchild of the SIAI-Marchetti head designer Alexander Brena in 1964. Brena wanted to make a light, general-purpose aircraft, which led to the S.205. The aircraft was all-metal, low-winged, single-engined and provided space for four persons. Further development led into the S.208, which had a 260 hp engine, retractable landing gear, and 5 seats. Other planned, but never realized versions were the S.206 and S.210.

Approximately 65 fuselages were transported to the United States, to be assembled in Syracuse, New York by the Waco Aircraft Company.  With the death of Mr. Berger, the president of the company, the assembly of the S.205 came to a halt in the US.

Operational history

The Italian Air Force acquired 45 aircraft for use as liaison, glider-towing, and training aircraft. The military version, called S.208M, differed from the civil version through its avionics, its two doors for the cockpit, the possibility to mount a hook to tow gliders, and the lack of some fuel tanks. The first 4 delivered aircraft were S.205s, but were later converted into S.208s.

Two aircraft were also sold to Tunisia, who used them for pilot training.

Many S.205 aircraft were purchased by private pilot owners in Europe and elsewhere.

Variants

S.205 basic version, metal, single-engine four-seat airplane, the F version had a fixed undercarriage, while the R version had a retractable undercarriage. It was offered with three different engines:
S.205 F/R-18: Avco Lycoming O-360
S.205 F/R-20: Avco Lycoming IO-360-A1A
S.205 F/R-22: Franklin 6A-350C1
S.206 6-seat version, never realized
S.208 5-seat version with a 260 hp engine and a retractable undercarriage
S.208M military version for the Italian Air Force
S.208AG agricultural version, also used as an aviation-ambulance.
S.210 twin-engine version.

Zirkus Rosarius. Zirkus Rosarius (also known as the Wanderzirkus Rosarius) was an Erprobungskommando-style special test unit of the Luftwaffe, specifically of the Luftwaffe High Command, tasked with testing captured British and American aircraft, all of which were repainted in German markings. 

The purpose of testing allied aircraft was to discover any strengths or vulnerabilities in their design or performance. This information was highly useful in enabling German service personnel to develop tactics designed to counter strengths and exploit any vulnerabilities.

The unit was formed by Theodor Rosarius in 1943 and was part of the 2.Staffel/Versuchsverband Oberbefehlshaber der Luftwaffe (second squadron of the Experimental Unit of Luftwaffe High Command). The Zirkus also toured operational airfields showing Luftwaffe pilots the captured aircraft and training them in techniques to counter these aircraft. The Zirkus Rosarius seemed to have merited the use of its own Geschwaderkennung ("wing code") of "T9", with a few of the unit's aircraft coming from KG 200, which already used the "A3" identification code of that wing.

Gold(III) oxide. Gold(III) oxide (Au2O3) is an inorganic compound of gold and oxygen with the formula Au2O3. It is a red-brown solid that decomposes at 298 °C. 

According to X-ray crystallography, AuO features square planar gold centers with both 2- and 3-coordinated oxides. The four Au-O bond distances range from 193 to 207 picometers. The crystals can be prepared by heating amorphous hydrated gold(III) oxide with perchloric acid and an alkali metal perchlorate in a sealed quartz tube at a temperature of around 250 °C and a pressure of around 30 MPa.

Destiny in Space. Destiny in Space is a 70mm Canadian-American IMAX documentary film released in 1994. The film was written by Toni Myers, directed by Academy Award-winner Ben Burtt, and narrated by Leonard Nimoy.

The film is a showcase of the daily lives of astronauts in space, particularly on the STS-42 [[Space Shuttle Discovery|Space Shuttle Discovery]] Spacelab mission, as they fix instruments and take measurements. The film includes two Space Shuttle launches and several cargo bay scenes, including an astronaut repairing the Hubble Space Telescope. CGI recreations of the surface of Venus and Mars based on satellite data from JPL are also featured. The film looks at the future of human space exploration and what future generations might accomplish in the years to come.

Four filmmakers contributed to directing the film. Director/cinematographer James Neihouse was the cinematographer for Blue Planet, The Dream Is Alive (a 1985 documentary about the Space Shuttle program), Michael Jordan to the Max and other IMAX features. Burtt, aside from his lengthy and impressive list of sound crew credits, directed both Destiny and Blue Planet. Toni Myers edited several IMAX pictures, including L5: First City in Space, Hail Columbia (a 1982 documentary focusing on the first mission of Space Shuttle Columbia), and others.

Several scenes included launch and in-orbit footage from shuttle missions STS-41-C, STS-61-B, STS-31, STS-32, STS-34, STS-40, STS-42, STS-46, STS-51 and STS-61.

DVDDestiny In Space'' is presented in 1.33:1 full frame and contains a Dolby Digital 5.1 presentation. A nine-minute making-of featurette is included in the extras, with the theatrical trailer and general IMAX trailer.
