I transplanted a Thai Hot from a garden to a 3 gallon pot and placed it under some grow lights in the basement. After it got over the âshockâ it came back nicely, but for some reason, I get no peppers. Lots of flowers, but no peppers.
V/STOL thrust-vectoring arrangement on the Harrier. When the nozzles are horizontal and point backwards, the aircraft flies forward. When the nozzles are vertical and point downward, the Harrier can fly up or down or hover in a stationary location.Nick's question really comes down to a matter of perspective.y friend and I are arguing about the Harrier. He says it hovers like a helicopter when I think it can only hover by basically pushing off the ground. - question from Nick Lengyel.
An albatross is the grandest living flying machine on Earth. An albatross is bone, feathers, muscle, and the wind. An albatross is its own taut longbow, the breeze its bowstring, propelling its projectile body. An albatross is an art deco bird, striking of pattern, clean of line, epic in travels, heroically faithful. A parent albatross may fly more than 10,000 miles (16,000 kilometers) to deliver one meal to its chick. Wielding the longest wings in natureâup to eleven and a half feet (3.5 meters)âalbatrosses can glide hundreds of miles without flapping, crossing ocean basins, circumnavigating the globe. A 50-year-old albatross has flown, at least, 3.7 million miles (6 million kilometers). If people know the albatross at all, most harbor vague impressions of an ungainly, burdensome creature, derived from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's 1798 poem, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
