snowpocalypse and snowmageddon

via earthobservatory.nasa.gov Nicknamed “snowpocalypse” and “snowmageddon,” an exceptionally severe winter storm dropped several feet of snow around the Washington, D.C., area in early February 2010. Crashed and abandoned cars littered roads as airlines canceled hundreds of flights. Even the DC Metro train system stopped functioning in places. I like it too

wanna be a pilot?

Wanna be a pilot? All you need is blog Wow Wonder if they are looking at this blog (atleast the current running one outta so many of my blogs) as well One of Asia's fastest-growing budget airlines is seeking staff via an online contest, and no flying experience is necessary. In a competition similar to the " Best Job in the World " contest to find a caretaker for a tropical Australian island, Malaysian airline AirAsia has launched an online plea for pilots, asking candidates to blog why they should get the job. The airline said 10 finalists will be selected, and they will take part in the first round of AirAsia's new pilot intake, which involves spending a day with pilots at the AirAsia Academy. Bloggers will only be considered if they meet minimum requirements, which include being aged between 18 and 28, having a good command of English and Bahasa Malaysia and being mentally and physically fit, with good eye sight, the website said.

Moving from the "hunger-panged-world" to some astronomy: This illustration shows the penumbral lunar eclipse on February 9, 2009. It is fairly close to scale and illustrates how th e moon passes through the penumbral portion of

old spaceships n Zero Gravity For Free

NASA's Facilitated Access to the Space Environment for Technology Development and Training, or FAST, program helps emerging technologies mature through testing in a reduced gravity environment. To prepare technologies for space applications, it is important to demonstrate they work in a zero-gravity environment. This unique testing environment can be provided in an aircraft flying repeated parabolic trajectories which create brief periods of zero gravity. The aircraft also can simulate reduced-gravity levels similar to those found on the surface of the moon or Mars. Source Oh! and NASA giving away old spaceships ! - any takers? Well, I want atleast one in addition to the one I already have ;) Compilation of the best fighter jet videos. All taken from the air. jovi ROCKS in dis numbah!
