Se perdi potenza:
Innanzitutto, chiama la tua società di servizi per determinare i programmi di riparazione dell'area.
Spegnere o scollegare le luci e gli apparecchi per evitare un sovraccarico del circuito quando viene ripristinata la manutenzione. Lasciare una luce accesa per indicare quando l'alimentazione è stata ripristinata.
Se il calore si spegne durante una tempesta invernale, tieniti al caldo chiudendo le stanze che non ti servono.
Per evitare il congelamento dei tubi, accendere leggermente i rubinetti. L'acqua corrente non si congela così rapidamente.
Tenere chiuse il più possibile le porte del frigorifero e del congelatore per contribuire a ridurre il deterioramento degli alimenti.
Proteggiti dall'avvelenamento da monossido di carbonio:
	NON far funzionare i generatori all'interno; il motore emette gas monossido di carbonio mortale.
NON usare carbone per cucinare all'interno. Anch'esso può causare un accumulo di gas monossido di carbonio.
NON utilizzare il forno a gas per riscaldare la casa. L'uso prolungato di un forno aperto in una casa chiusa può creare gas monossido di carbonio.

 Eliminated Mission Category: 
 Earth System Science Pathfinder Program, Earth Venture Class, Earth Venture-Mission Launch Date: 2024

UPDATE: On November 28, 2022, NASA cancelled the GeoCARB mission. This was due to technical concerns, cost performance, and availability of new alternative data sources, as well as to keep the Earth Science portfolio aligned with overall science priorities. 
 
NASA has selected a first-of-its-kind Earth science mission that will extend our nation’s lead in measuring key greenhouse gases and vegetation health from space to advance our understanding of Earth’s natural exchanges of carbon between the land, atmosphere and ocean. The Geostationary Carbon Observatory (GeoCarb), targeted for launch in the early 2020s, will build on the success of NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) mission by placing a similar instrument on a hosted satellite flying in geostationary orbit. Perched 22,236 miles (35,786 kilometers) above the Americas, GeoCarb will collect 10 million daily observations of the concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, carbon monoxide and solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) at a spatial resolution of about 3 to 6 miles (5 to 10 kilometers). The primary goals of GeoCarb, led by Berrien Moore of the University of Oklahoma in Norman, are to monitor plant health and vegetation stress throughout the Americas, and to probe, in unprecedented detail, the natural sources, sinks and exchange processes that control carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and methane in the atmosphere. The NASA-directed mission will launch on a hosted satellite to make observations over the Americas from an orbit of approximately 22,000 miles (35,800 kilometers) above the equator.
The GeoCarb instrument views reflected light from Earth through a narrow slit.

Frequently Asked Questions | California Air Resources Board
If the original component Executive Order holder notifies CARB that their certified component will be distributed under other brand names, those distributors may use the original certified component EO number and/or the identifying mark on the label with their company name. If the distributor wants a separate Executive Order that is issued only in their name, the distributor would need to certify the component through the CARB certification process.Is there a checklist that SIWM evaporative control component manufacturers can use when putting together their certification application?permalinkYes. A certification checklist, which serves as a guideline for preparing component applications, can be provided. Please contact CARB SIMW component certification staff for additional details.Can pressure relief valves that also open under vacuum be certified?permalinkYes, pressure relief valves that also provide vacuum relief may be certified if the valve meets all the same standards as pressure relief valves without vacuum relief. Any portion of the test procedure that requires sealed vacuum settings may be amended, if approved, to accommodate these type of valves. Please contact CARB SIMW component certification staff for additional details.Do metal tanks need to be certified as meeting permeation emission standards?permalinkNo, per 13 CCR section 2866, metal tanks are exempt from certification and do not need to obtain a Component Executive Order of Certification.Can test results from the smallest fuel tank in a family be used to certify larger tank sizes of the same family if the smallest tanks meets the criteria of worst case?permalinkYes, per TP-1504, Test Procedures for Determining Permeation Emissions from Installed Marine Fuel Tanks, Marine Fuel Hoses and Marine Fuel Caps, the fuel tank may be tested as long as it has a standardized (representative) geometry that it is made of the same material(s) and appropriate wall thickness.How is the worst case configuration determined for fuel tank permeation emissions?permalinkThe fuel tank with the minimum volume to internal surface area ratio may be tested to represent the fuel tank family. Test results for the worst case of a fuel tank family may be used to certify all tank sizes in that family.If a boat has two fuel tanks and has a T fitting to the engine, does the hose running from the T fitting to the engine need to be certified?

40 Years Ago: NASA Selects its 10th Group of Astronauts - NASA
The newest class of astronaut candidates included Kenneth D. Cameron, John H. Casper, Frank L. Culbertson, Sidney M. Gutierrez, L. Blaine Hammond, Michael J. McCulley, and James D. Wetherbee as the seven pilot candidates; and James C. Adamson, Mark N. Brown, Manley L. “Sonny” Carter, Marsha S. Ivins, Mark C. Lee, G. David Low, William M. Shepherd, Ellen L. Shulman, Kathryn C. Thornton, and C. Lacy Veach as the 10 mission specialist candidates.
 Left: Group 10 astronaut candidates. Right: Group 10 astronaut candidates during survival training in Washington State.
The 17 astronaut candidates arrived at JSC on July 2, 1984, to begin their one-year training and certification period. The training included scientific and technical briefings, intensive instruction in space shuttle systems, physiological training, T-38 flight training, and water and wilderness survival training. They also received orientation tours at NASA centers. They completed the astronaut candidate training on May 30, 1985, and qualified for various technical assignments within the astronaut office and for space shuttle flight assignments.
 The Group 10 patch, left, and Group 10 NASA astronauts James C. Adamson and Mark N. Brown.
The Group 10 astronauts called themselves The Maggots. The nickname apparently originated with Shepherd, inspired during an early aircraft survival school session by the term U.S. Marines use for new recruits. Carter led the design of the Group 10 patch, a diamond shaped insignia that included elements such as a space shuttle lifting off, 17 stars representing the astronauts, and the number 84 for the year of their selection.
Adamson, a flight controller at JSC when selected, called New York state home. He received his first spaceflight assignment in January 1986 as a mission specialist on STS-61N, along with fellow Maggots McCulley and Brown, a Department of Defense mission aboard Columbia then planned for September 1986. The January 1986 Challenger accident resulted in the suspension of all flight and crew assignments. In February 1988, NASA assigned Adamson as a mission specialist on STS-28, along with fellow Maggot Brown, a five-day classified Department of Defense (DOD) mission aboard Columbia in August 1989.

March Puzzler
March 11th, 2024 by Kathryn Hansen

Update on April 23, 2024: This image shows Sortebræ, a large surge-type glacier in eastern Greenland, on September 6, 1986. Congratulations to Steward Redwood for being the first to correctly identify the glacier. Read more about the glacier and see how it has retreated in recent decades in our Image of the Day story.
Every month on Earth Matters, we offer a puzzling satellite image. The March 2024 puzzler is shown above. Your challenge is to use the comments section to tell us where it is, what we are looking at, and why it is interesting. 
How to answer. You can use a few words or several paragraphs. You might simply tell us the location, or you can dig deeper and offer details about what satellite and instrument produced the image, what spectral bands were used to create it, or what is compelling about some obscure feature. If you think something is interesting or noteworthy, tell us about it.
The prize. We cannot offer prize money or a trip on the International Space Station, but we can promise you credit and glory. Well, maybe just credit. Within a week after a puzzler image appears on this blog, we will post an annotated and captioned version as our Image of the Day. After we post the answer, we will acknowledge the first person to correctly identify the image at the bottom of this blog post. We also may recognize readers who offer the most interesting tidbits of information. Please include your preferred name or alias with your comment. If you work for or attend an institution that you would like to recognize, please mention that as well.
