PARIS - NICE ETAPE 1

Arrivée Les Mureaux Les Mureaux - Photo - Joseph Polidori Berceau du lanceur européen Ariane, Les Mureaux est une ville des Yvelines de 32 000 habitants. À 37 km à l’ouest de Paris, Les Mureaux est à l’origine un village bordé par la Seine et la vallée du Vexin. En 1285, c’est pour ces attraits naturels que la reine de France, Marie de Brabant, choisit Les Mureaux en tant que lieu de villégiature. En 1843, le grand village héberge une gare de la première voie ferrée de France entre Paris et Rouen.

Dès lors, les Parisiens viennent passer leur dimanche en bord de Seine. En 1894, le Cercle de la voile de Paris s’installe aux Mureaux à l’initiative du peintre Gustave Caillebotte avant d’être rejoint par le Yacht club de l’Île-de-France. En 1924, Les Mureaux accueille ainsi les épreuves de régates des Jeux olympiques de Paris. Bientôt, les premiers hydravions font leurs essais sur le plan d’eau des Mureaux, qui devient un site éminent de l’aventure aérospatiale.

And so this song to freedom always exists at the nearest harbor, and from there it's favorite game is to sail faster than the wind

True we didn't talk about the fuselage of these ships, in fact they are designed pretty much like airplanes, very similar to a hydravion that doesn't fly

About its glass facades contrary to preconceptions there are several things, first its tempered thick glass able to sustain a lot, second it's not only glass it often has plastic inlayers and polycarbonates, third because the inserts of these glass panels are very sturdy they in fact reinforce the structure rather than weaken it

While the thought of having glass galleries in rough weather can be frightening, they have been designed to sustain that and not as a maybe, I see no problem whatsoever in having them, and what they can do to these suites in terms of panorama is fantastic, that said let's not imagine that they are glass walls, they're not

On the EXPLORER these are 120cm panoramic galleries that produce a panoramic effect from the seating positions of the lounges, which are receded on a lower plane, not more, those of the Black Pearl are 60cm why how, the EXPLORER has 4 decks, the Black Pearl has 2 decks 120cm/2

I don't as much design ships or yachts as I design stuff that I would like to have, and I don't know that I can design a ship or yacht for a client without telling them that I have changed my mind about the ship's ownership

This sailing configuration, there's something to it, whether we want to admit it or not these solar canopies are also sails of their own and a lot of wind is going through beneath them, also above deck, which should make the ship lighter, and faster

From its home port of Camden, Maine then

Thank you for having followed

Montée des eaux : et si la Bretagne devenait une île ?

Avec la montée des eaux liée à la fonte des glaces et au changement climatique, la Bretagne pourrait-elle devenir une île ? C'est en tout cas ce qu'a imaginé le géographe Perrin Remonté dans une carte fictive. Des hydravions, des lignes de ferrys, Rennes sous l’eau… L'objectif est de créer un électrochoc face à la crise climatique.

Pâtir et bâtir pour grandir 2

Le salaire de l’aventure. Heureusement qu’à tout il y a un bon coté sans lequel on ne saurait vivre. Ce mal vivre à des centaines de kilomètres de toute civilisation décourageait vite ceux qui n’étaient pas capables de le supporter. Très rapidement, ils s’éliminaient d’eux-même en retournant à la civilisation par le premier hydravion. Presque tous les autres revenaient travailler chaque saison.…

L'hydravion cargo géant à effet de sol de la Darpa se dessine

La Darpa met en concurrence deux de ses partenaires pour élaborer le design du Liberty Plan. Cet hydravion cargo géant utilisera l’effet de sol sur la mer pour transporter de lourdes charges rapidement sur de longues distances. Fin mai, la Darpa annonçait qu’elle envisageait de concevoir un avion-cargo tactique utilisant l’effet de sol sur la mer pour parcourir de très longues distances à haute…
