input: Tuvalu (i/tuvlu/ too-VAH-loo or /tuvlu/ TOO-v-loo), formerly known as the Ellice Islands, is a Polynesian island nation located in the Pacific Ocean, midway between Hawaii and Australia. It comprises three reef islands and six true atolls spread out between the latitude of 5 to 10 south and longitude of 176 to 180, west of the International Date Line. Its nearest neighbours are Kiribati, Nauru, Samoa and Fiji. Tuvalu has a population of 10,640 (2012 census). The total land area of the islands of Tuvalu is 26 square kilometres (10 sq mi).

In 1568, Spanish navigator Alvaro de Mendana was the first European to sail through the archipelago, sighting the island of Nui during his expedition in search of Terra Australis. In 1819 the island of Funafuti was named Ellice's Island; the name Ellice was applied to all nine islands after the work of English hydrographer Alexander George Findlay. The islands came under Britain's sphere of influence in the late 19th century, when each of the Ellice Islands was declared a British Protectorate by Captain Gibson of HMS Curacoa between 9 and 16 October 1892. The Ellice Islands were administered as British protectorate by a Resident Commissioner from 1892 to 1916 as part of the British Western Pacific Territories (BWPT), and then as part of the Gilbert and Ellice Islands colony from 1916 to 1974. 1. who was the first European to sail through the archipelago?

question: The angel alligator was quite the sight! It loved to scream with all its might!

It loved to roll in mud and sun. Then it would go for a run.

But why did it run? Why did it scream?

It had a fork in its butt!

It sat in a trashcan. This was not a smart thing to do! But he did it, oh yes, oh me, oh you!

The alligator had a beard. It was a great beard. But nobody ever talked about his beard. Why? Because they would only see the fork in its butt!

But one day, the alligator made a friend. The friend needed a fork. How was he to eat his spaghetti without a fork?

But...I'm not sure a butt fork is the best way to eat spaghetti.

Question: Aviation is the practical aspect or art of aeronautics, being the design, development, production, operation and use of aircraft, especially heavier than air aircraft. The word "aviation" was coined by French writer and former naval officer Gabriel La Landelle in 1863, from the verb "avier" (synonymous flying), itself derived from the Latin word "avis" ("bird") and the suffix "-ation".

There are early legends of human flight such as the story of Icarus in Greek myth and Jamshid in Persian myth, and later, somewhat more credible claims of short-distance human flights appear, such as the flying automaton of Archytas of Tarentum (428347 BC), the winged flights of Abbas Ibn Firnas (810887), Eilmer of Malmesbury (11th century), and the hot-air Passarola of Bartholomeu Lourenco de Gusmao (16851724).

The modern age of aviation began with the first untethered human lighter-than-air flight on November 21, 1783, of a hot air balloon designed by the Montgolfier brothers. The practicality of balloons was limited because they could only travel downwind. It was immediately recognized that a steerable, or dirigible, balloon was required. Jean-Pierre Blanchard flew the first human-powered dirigible in 1784 and crossed the English Channel in one in 1785.

Rigid airships became the first aircraft to transport passengers and cargo over great distances. The best known aircraft of this type were manufactured by the German Zeppelin company. 1. when did the modern age of aviation begin?
