India wants to be the fourth country in the world - after the United States, the former Soviet Union and the joint collaboration of European nations - to send an unmanned mission to Mars , que will be released tomorrow from the Satish Dhawan Space Center on the island of Shriharikota , south Asian country .
The spacecraft That seeks to Achieve installed in orbit around the red planet is called " Mangalyaan " ( or मंगलयान in Sanskrit ) , that means ' Martian spacecraft ' in Hindi . Definitely a goal is not easy , since all countries have failed in Their first attempt (Japan and China Have Not met ) and only 23 of 40 Have Been successful lunched missions worldwide .
The mission will take 300 days to reach the orbit of Mars , and According To Authorities , the country sees the mission Primarily as a demonstration of Their technological level , while Indian scientists hope to Demonstrate That the abitur doing lot to explore the solar system from the earth.

World's most beautiful woman
The beauty is subjective and studies have shown that the model attractive woman or man changes with the times. From Ancient Greece to the present, the ideal of beauty has changed substantially but for the beauty of science is assessed in terms of symmetry that can be found in the imaginary facial geometry. With a somewhat renegade model for those who prefer that there are no models or ideal structures for something as problematic and discriminatory as beauty, British scientists have managed to discover who they think is the most beautiful woman in the world.
No judges or public ahead without parading with different dresses and bikinis, the winner for science is Florence Colgate, an employee from a position of chips that have 18 years and participated in "Lorraine: Naked", a beauty contest for TV that rewarded those with a perfect face without using makeup or cosmetic surgery. "Florence has all the classic features that make the beauty," said Carmen Lefevre Perception Laboratory at the University of St. Andrews School of Psychology. Big eyes, high cheekbones, full lips and smooth complexion. Again, the combination of symmetry is essential.
Without going into classical measures to prosecute models, science determines a beautiful face as showing symmetry. In the face of Florence Colgate, the radius of distance between your eyes and ears is 2:1, which is the scientific ideal. Furthermore, the distance between your eyes and your mouth is the third of the distance between the hairline and chin, another great feature according to the science of beauty.
Beauty is an abstract concept and obviously relative. Its existence is linked to a perception that in turn is determined largely by cultural norms and specific associations . However, as often happens with scientific gaze , parameters have also been established outlining the perfect composition of beauty in reference to the human face.
Is This the World 's Most Beautiful Woman?
And according to the proportions nominated as suitable for science, British Florence Colgate is the most beautiful woman on the planet. The distance between your ears is exactly twice the distance that separates one of the pupils of the other. In addition , the distance from your eye to your mouth is equivalent to a third of the separating line chin where he began his hair above the forehead. Both proportions match the perfect beauty scientists obtained after multiple correlated variables.
Florence has been named " The most beautiful woman in the UK" after winning the Naked Lorraine , honoring the natural beauty . With this has received several offers to star in advertising campaigns , so soon her face will flood the streets of dozens of British cities.
Carmen Lefevre, Perception Lab researcher at the University of St Andrews ' School of Psychology , explains the ' perfection ' of this woman :
"Florence has all the hallmarks of classic beauty . It has big eyes, cheekbones popping, full lips , and fair complexion. The symmetry seems to be a very important element to define someone attractive . "
The Walking Dead: Season Two

The game does not have a specific release date but is expected to come out later this year.
No-Mix: A toilet that turns waste into energy
Once the biological commitment ended, we think hard about the fate of "material" discarded in the bathroom, but a group of scientists from Nanyang Technological University has. The result is the toilet No-Mix, which can help to create biogas and biodiesel.
I'll try to make this as eschatological possible, but do not expect miracles. After all, we are talking about a toilet, but its technical details easily place him in a different category. All they do is conventional toilets to displace the material elsewhere, but the toilet No-Mix, which takes at least a year of development at the Nanyang Technological University, has a much more practical. First, it uses two separate chambers holding a solid and liquid, and by applying vacuum technology dramatically reduces the amount of water required for the circulation, only one liter of solids, and 200 milliliters with liquids. If you consider that a typical system consumes four to six liters of water regardless of the waste, saving after frequent use (think public facilities) is more than important.
Secondly, the toilet No-Mix, when connected to a decentralized processing of waste, can be combined with other biological material discarded (as food scraps) to create biogas, which in turn is fed to the distribution system , or consumed in the production of electricity. On the other hand, the liquid waste from the No-Mix help creating microalgae, and eventually to the production of biodiesel or fertilizer. The project displays the No-Mix as the first step in a project aimed at restoring overall scale resources in a city like Singapore (technically, city state), however, nothing to prevent a similar development can expand to other around the world. The concept is not new, and some prototypes have existed in the past, but if they can reduce your cost of the bill ... why not?
