Nederlands paddenfilmpje onverwachte hit op Amerikaanse socials

Vorige maand bracht RAVON (Reptielen Amfibieën Vissen Onderzoek Nederland) een kort filmpje uit waarin een pad te zien is die, nadat hij in een straatput is gevallen, er op eigen kracht weer uit weet te klimmen. Het filmpje – slechts één minuut lang – werd gemaakt voor het project 'Pad uit de put', dat als doel heeft om straatkolken met speciale trapjes amfibievriendelijk te maken.

Pitching in the Cold ( #HammockCamping )

One advantage of sleeping in a #hammock is it can be very cool in hotter weather. The flip side is it gets cold fast as the temperature drops. This is a big topic so I will just summarize the highlights here:

#SleepingBags give little protection from the cold when compressed by your body weight. This is why you need an insulating #pad when sleeping on the ground. Using a pad in a hammock is possible, but it can be very tricky. I've never gotten it to work myself.

Putting on More Clothing can help. I like to wear a #fleece to bed (since it doesn't compress as much).

I had many cold nights before I invested in a simple #Underquilt. It is basically a blanket shaped like a taco. 😉 The goal is to suspend it under the hammock but not put much weight on it.

Since the part of the sleeping bag that you lie on adds very little, many serious hammock campers use an #Overquilt. These look like mummy-style sleeping bags with the opening in the back! You don't need much of a back if you are using a corresponding underquilt. This also makes them easier to get into! Overquilts generally have a collar that can be closed around your neck, but they do not have hoods, so wear a hat if your head gets cold easily!

If your fly is large enough, you can cut down on exposure to cold winds by wrapping the windward side under the hammock to make a sort of cocoon. This is very easy with a standard diamond-shaped fly.

Before most #rocket #launches, the press office allows #media and #photographers to the #pad to set #RemoteCameras, cameras that are triggered by sound or a timer to catch shots closer to the #rocket than a person could survive.

After the launch, the photographers collect their cameras, if they survived, and review the images.

This was taken the night before a #Delta IV Heavy launch, during remote setup.

An outdoor, evening time photograph of a grassy hill on the left side of the image and a paved road on the right. In the middle, behind the hill, is a Delta 4 Heavy rocket. It has three orange cylinder-shaped booster strapped together side-by-side. They are brigh orange with a white stripe across the top third. The two outer booster have a white nose cone while the center booster has an upper stage and payload fairing, both white. The rocket sits on a concrete pad, and a gray tower extends multiple connections to the rocket. Behind it is a white tower with a gap that the rocket clearly fits inside of. On either side of the rocket there are two truss towers.

When #SpaceX was allowed to use LC-40 at Cape #Canaveral Air Force Station, SpaceX realized they needed to extend the flame #trench to be longer than what was used for the Titan IV #rocket that had used the #pad previously.
SpaceX chose to use a metal frame with water sprayers to flood the #exhaust to cool and slow it and prevent damage to the #vehicle or #infrastructure. The metal extensions are on the right of the image, next to the concrete structure next to the #strongback.

The two metal structures are the flame #deflectors, which are meant to sit under the #launch table during launch to divert #rocket #exhaust away from the #vehicle to avoid thermal, acoustic, or debris issues, as well as to minimize damage to #pad #infrastructure.
Theses #FlameDeflectors were used at LC-34 for the #Saturn I and the larger, wider one was used for the upgraded Saturn IB. Flame delflectors are meant to divert the #exhaust of a #rocket as it #launches to protect the #vehicle and #pad #infrastructure.
After the #Apollo Program was finished, #LC34’s tower was dismantlted to prevent its uncontrolled collapse due to rust from the salt spray. The rest was #abandoned in place and a #memorial #plaque and kiosk were to memorialize the deaths of astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee during the Apollo 1 fire.

A photograph of two metal structures build in a rounded triangle shape, with thick metal paths on the surface and raised edges with little structure underneath except metal supports. The one on the right is wider and shorter than the one on the left. A concrete pad extends from the camera two the metal flame deflectors, with grass and then scrub land behind. There is a white tower in the distance on the left in the distant.

A United Launch Alliance #Atlas V #rocket sits on #pad LC-41, waiting to launch a communications #satellite for #NASA. The Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System allows NASA to maintain near-constant contact with its Earth-orbiting #spacecraft, including the Space Shuttle and International Space Station, and Antarctica, as well as #LaunchVehicles during ascent.
The Mobile Launch Platform’s umbilical towers obscure the brightly-lit rocket.
The satellited being launched is #TDRS-K, renamed TDRS-11 once operational.

A photograph of an Atlas 5 rocket at night. The rocket is brightly-lit and nearly white. The rocket is venting what looks like a white cloud. There are yellow and orange lights around the ground showing its infrastructure.

“#IndieDevelopers […] are all under-charging for their #apps and putting in far more time and care than you even imagine. They’re doing the best work on the platforms we #love and they take care of their customers better than larger companies. So whenever you think you might want to give us money, go buy something awesome from an #indie instead.” — @brentsimmons
