Amelia Earhart’s bones have been found, and did the misunderstanding of the markings cause the loss of this pilot?

One of the most well known lost pilot Amelia Earhart’s (1897-1937)  bones had been found in 1940’s at some island in Pacific area. The question of this case has been actually, why Earhart was lost on why her airplane was dropped or why this woman made an emergency landing in 1937 when she tried to do the first around the world flight, what was made by the woman. This case has been kept open because the historians wanted to know, what dropped this 39 years old woman from the sky? There was nobody, who even thought that Earhart could be alive in 1937. But the thing what made this story so remarkable was, that Earhart or her map reader Noonan didn’t send any emergency call in that night.  Did the misunderstanding with the markings of this aircraft models XC-36 and E.10 cause the accident?

(1897-1937)

The airplane what Earhart used in that adventure was quite new. It was Lockheed Electra E.10. One model of this airplane (XC-35)  had the pressurized cabin, what allowed high altitude flight. And this plane had the capacity to fly above the weather. The reason, why the emergency call would not send might be that there were became the hole in the pressure cabin, but in Wikipedia were not mentioned was this pressurized cabin installed one plane in this Electra E.10 series. And did Earhart just misunderstand that every one of those planes had the pressurized cabin,  and this could cause danger situation in the air? I have read interesting theory about this plane’s role in the accident of Amelia Earhart. It is so unbelievable that nobody actually believes that. It goes that maybe Earhart was misunderstood that she had in the use this XC-35 model, what has the pressurized cabin,

And then she just rises too high, and then those pilots were unconscious If the pilot misunderstands the maximum safe flying altitude was higher than in the real plane, the situation might turn dangerous. If Earhart climbed too high for glide from the skies, that could be the reason for this accident. In this theory, Earhart was planned to climb very high, and glide part of the trip, because that allows flying far ahead to the island, where would be luxuries for those tired pilots. This was caused the accident and death of those two pilots. This Lockheed Electra E.10 was also used for developing the military model C.36B or UC-36B. But in some case


Some other people believe that the death of Earhart was an attentate, what was made Mafia or German intelligence. The first case was that somebody would want her insurance money and the second one was that German military intelligence wanted the high flight technology what was used in this plane. Or maybe Earhart just miscalculated something, and that was caused the leak of fuel. But why she didn’t send the emergency call is the thing what makes this thing interesting.

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
