Another weekend, another study at the museum - I'll be the first to admit that this isn't my finest work, but it's about the best I can do when the museum is like three times as packed as usual LMAO - something about hosting several birthday parties and a field trip and an exhibition event all at the same time and having to focus through that

I picked the HH-52A because A) haven't drawn a helicopter there yet, thought I needed to, and B) can't have people walking in between you and your subject when it's hanging up in the air amirite

Big V and Little v

We finally got to Rotorcraft in my Vehicle Performance class and suddenly were hit with this nonsense. (Rotorcrafts are helicopters and things of that nature.)

Who thought it was a good idea to name both (very different variables with different implications) V?!!??!

To those who may be curious, this is a part of Actuator Disk Theory, where "big V" represents the velocity of ALL of the air that is flowing into the rotor blades a helicopter and "little v" represents the velocity of only the air that is crossing the rotor blades through a control volume. Very different implications for both variables. These are things that will literally kill a person if you don't have them straight.*

*ok not totally true cause this is all back-of-the-envelope design-phase calculation, but still.

**Host:** Anna --- **Episode Summary:** Embark on a cosmic odyssey with Anna in today's episode of Astronomy Daily - The Podcast, as we celebrate the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter's transformation from a groundbreaking flier to a stationary scientific sentinel on the Red Planet. We'll delve into the methane-rich mysteries of ice giants Uranus and Neptune, challenging long-held notions of their composition. The episode takes an exhilarating turn with NASA's greenlit Dragonfly mission to Saturn's moon Titan, promising to unlock secrets of prebiotic chemistry. Witness the Voyager team's remote engineering marvel, extending the life of our most distant spacecraft, and share in the excitement as Boeing's Starliner inches closer to revolutionizing human spaceflight. Plus, we highlight the invaluable role of citizen scientists in NASA's cosmic census, showcasing the power of collaborative discovery. Join us as we traverse the vastness of space, from Martian hills to icy giants, and from Titan's alien shores to the backyard of our own solar system. --- **Featured Topics:** 1. **Ingenuity's New Chapter:** Reflecting on the Mars helicopter's historic flights and its evolution into a stationary data collector in the Valinor Hills. 2. **Ice Giants' Methane Enigma:** Investigating the surprising carbon-heavy composition of Uranus and Neptune, which may reshape our understanding of planetary formation. 3. **Dragonfly's Titan Mission:** Celebrating NASA's ambitious rotorcraft project as it prepares to explore the complex organic chemistry of Saturn's largest moon. 4. **Voyager's Engineering Feat:** Admiring the Voyager team's skill in remotely rejuvenating the spacecraft's systems, ensuring continued communication from the edge of interstellar space. 5. **Starliner's Steps to the ISS:** Anticipating the impact of Boeing's Starliner spacecraft on future human spaceflight as it gears up for a test mission to the International Space Station. 6. **Citizen Scientists' Cosmic Census:** Recognizing the significant contributions of amateur astronomers to NASA's survey of nearby cosmic objects, enhancing our understanding of the universe's composition. --- **Additional Information:** Stay connected with the cosmos by visiting astronomydaily.io, where you can explore our extensive archive, catch up on past episodes, and subscribe to our free daily newsletter. Join our stargazing community and follow the latest space news. Stream episodes directly from our website or listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio, or your favorite podcast platform. --- **Closing Remarks:** As we conclude this stellar voyage, we hope you're filled with awe and a deeper appreciation for the boundless mysteries of space. From the perseverance of our robotic explorers to the collective efforts of space enthusiasts, each story weaves into the grand tapestry of our celestial journey. Until our paths cross again beneath the cosmos, this is Anna, bidding you a fond farewell and wishing you clear skies. Keep your eyes on the stars and your sense of wonder alive. Goodbye, space travelers! --- **Host Sign-off:** Anna: That's a wrap on today's galactic exploration, dear listeners. I'm Anna, reminding you that the universe is always unfolding with new marvels to uncover. Keep your gaze lifted and join us again as we continue to decode the wonders of the cosmos.

All because of counterfeit The Federal Air Transport Agency has suspended the operation of 37 helicopters manufactured in 2022 - 27 Mi-8MTV-1 and 10 Ansat-SK, produced at the Kazan Helicopter Plant (KVZ, part of the Russian Helicopters holding company of the Rostec state corporation) due to the use of rubber with fake quality certificates. Gaskets for the fuel system were made from this rubber. This was reported by Izvestia with reference to airworthiness directives issued by the Federal Air Transport Agency in late October - early November. Additionally, the regulator notified the developers and manufacturers of helicopters, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Emergency Situations and operators of these types of aircraft. The Federal Air Transport Agency said that the directives prescribe the work of checking and replacing gaskets with new ones, flushing the fuel system, ground racing of engines and a subsequent control flight, and currently these works have already been completed on approximately 80% of helicopters. New Mi-8MTV-1 and Ansat-SK helicopters. A criminal case has been initiated [caption id="attachment_85623" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Mi-8MTV-1 and Ansat-SK helicopters[/caption] Rostec told the newspaper that the supplier of rubber plates for gaskets at Kazan Helicopter Plant was selected during procurement procedures. The counterfeit material was delivered to the plant back in August 2022. The company also noted that the defect in the material was identified by the factory’s quality service, and additional tests carried out confirmed the inauthenticity of the product. After this, the products were placed in a defect isolation room, and the products used before testing were removed from the production shops and replaced on finished helicopters. A criminal case of fraud has been opened regarding the supply of counterfeit goods.
