From the early 1930s eight countries developed radar, these developments were sufficiently advanced by the late 1930s for development work on sound locating acoustic devices to be generally halted, although equipment was retained. Furthermore, in Britain the volunteer Observer Corps formed in 1925 provided a network of observation posts to report hostile aircraft flying over Britain. Initially radar was used for airspace surveillance to detect approaching hostile aircraft. However, the German Wurzburg radar was capable of providing data suitable for controlling AA guns and the British AA No 1 Mk 1 GL radar was designed to be used on AA gun positions.
When was the Observer Corps formed?
****
The answer: 1925

The Scheinergrade (Sch.) system was devised by the German astronomer Julius Scheiner (18581913) in 1894 originally as a method of comparing the speeds of plates used for astronomical photography. Scheiner's system rated the speed of a plate by the least exposure to produce a visible darkening upon development. Speed was expressed in degrees Scheiner, originally ranging from 1 Sch. to 20 Sch., where an increment of 19 Sch. corresponded to a hundredfold increase in sensitivity, which meant that an increment of 3 Sch. came close to a doubling of sensitivity.
Who created the Scheinergrade system?
****
The answer: the German astronomer Julius Scheiner

Cyclone Bebe in 1972 caused severe damage to Funafuti. Funafuti's Tepuka Vili Vili islet was devastated by Cyclone Meli in 1979, with all its vegetation and most of its sand swept away during the cyclone. Along with a tropical depression that affected the islands a few days later, Severe Tropical Cyclone Ofa had a major impact on Tuvalu with most islands reporting damage to vegetation and crops. Cyclone Gavin was first identified during 2 March 1997, and was the first of three tropical cyclones to affect Tuvalu during the 199697 cyclone season with Cyclones Hina and Keli following later in the season.
What islet was damaged by Cyclone Meli in 1979?
****
The answer:
Funafuti's Tepuka Vili Vili
