San Francisco airport: Picture shows how close landing plane was to causing 'the worst aviation disaster in history'A picture and audio recording of a plane that almost crash landed into a busy taxiway has shed more light on what one aviation expert said could have been the "greatest aviation disaster in history". Air Canada Flight 759 was moments way from tragedy as it approached San Francisco International Airport, mistaking the taxiway for the runway, before pilots pulled the plane up again at just 18 metres above the ground to try another landing. United Airlines pilots queuing at the front of the taxiway alerted air traffic controllers, and Philippine Airlines pilots in the plane behind switched on their landing lights to signal danger.

Hyperloop pod travels 192mph in maiden journey

Posted: 03 Aug 2017 03:26 AM PDT

Hyperloop pod travels 192mph in maiden journeyThe ultra-fast Hyperloop is one step closer to becoming a reality after its pod travelled 192 miles per hour in its maiden journey.   Hyperloop One said its prototype for the high-speed transport system, which could travel from London to Edinburgh in 50 minutes, reached the speed on a 500-metre-long test track in the Nevada desert.  The test marks the first time Hyperloop One has propelled one of its carriages along the tube, as well as the fastest journey for the technology. Hyperloop test The company completed its first trial in May, which involved a smaller trolley reaching a top speed of 70 miles per hour. It is a significant step in the development of the Hyperloop, a transport system first conceived by Elon Musk in 2015 that involves levitating pods travelling through a vacuum at 750 miles per hour. "This is the beginning, and the dawn of a new era of transportation," said Shervin Pishevar, co-founder of Hyperloop One. "We've reached historic speeds of 192 miles per hour and we're excited to finally show the world the XP-1 going into the Hyperloop One tube."  Prototypes for the futuristic mode of transport are being developed by a host of rival companies and research institutions. Hyperloop One is the first to test a working model of its magnetic levitating pods.  The Hyperloop One prototype pod travelled 192 miles per hour in the test Credit: Hyperloop One  Hyperloop One said the first generation of its levitating pod, which was unveiled last month, accelerated for 300 metres, reaching 192 miles per hour before coming to a halt. The XP-1 pod is 8.7 metres long, 2.4 metres wide and 2.7 metres tall.  Although Hyperloop One more than doubled its previous record with the run, it fell short of the 250 miles per hour target it had set. The trip brings the Hyperloop close to the 200 miles per hour of Japan's bullet train, but is still 50 miles per hour slower than the planned HS2.  FAQ | Hyperloop "We're excited about the prospects and the reception we've received from governments around the world to help solve their mass transportation and infrastructure challenges," said Rob Lloyd, chief executive of Hyperloop One. He added the company plans to discuss the technology with partners, customers and governments following the success of the trial. It is now looking to commercialise the transport system, which is still being developed. Proposed UK routes for the Hyperloop  Credit: Hyperloop One Hyperloop One said earlier this year that it will be some time before it becomes a reality because of the complexity of the technology.  Before it can accelerate to 750 miles per hour it will need to extend the 500 metre test track, built this year, as well as fine-tune the system.  The next phase of tests will focus on solving practical problems such as creating an air lock, rather than increasing speed, it said.  The California-based transport innovation firm has proposed nine Hyperloop routes in Europe, including three in the UK: London to Edinburgh, Cardiff to Glasgow, and Glasgow to Liverpool.  The crazy future of transport - in pictures


Partition key battleground in India, Pakistan textbook wars

Partition key battleground in India, Pakistan textbook warsPakistani high school student Noman Afzal knows "traitorous" Hindus are to blame for the bloodshed that erupted when British India split into two nations 70 years ago. Students across the border in India are taught a starkly different version of events, the result of a decades-long effort by the nuclear-armed rivals to shape and control history to their own nationalistic narrative. August marks 70 years since the subcontinent was divided into two independent states -- Hindu-majority India and Muslim-majority Pakistan -- and millions were uprooted in one of the largest mass migrations in history.

U.S. pushes U.N. to slash North Korea exports by a third over missile tests

Posted: 04 Aug 2017 02:06 PM PDT

U.S. pushes U.N. to slash North Korea exports by a third over missile testsBy Michelle Nichols UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - A U.S.-drafted United Nations Security Council resolution, seen by Reuters on Friday, aims to slash by a third North Korea's $3 billion annual export revenue by banning the country's trade of coal, iron, iron ore, lead, lead ore and seafood. A council diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymity, said there was a "high confidence" that North Korea ally China and Russia would support the draft resolution, which was circulated to the 15 Security Council members on Friday. The United States is aiming for a vote on Saturday to impose the stronger sanctions over North Korea's two intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) tests in July, though Russia and some other council members are asking for more time, diplomats said.

When is the Perseid Meteor shower and how can I see it?

Posted: 04 Aug 2017 05:55 AM PDT

When is the Perseid Meteor shower and how can I see it?The Perseids is an annual meteor shower that peaks around mid-August,with this year's peak expected between 11 and 13 August. It's regarded as one of the brightest and most visible meteor showers. Here's everything you need to know about the spectacle, including dates and where to see it.  #perseids are coming!! pic.twitter.com/F19pqGL3nO— GaryFildes (@TheGaryFildes) July 9, 2017 What is a meteor shower? Ameteor shower occurs when Earth passes through the debris stream occupying the orbit of a comet, in this case comet Swift-Tuttle. Perspective makes meteor showers appear to emanate from a single point in the sky known as the shower radiant. A typical meteor results from a particle the size of a grain of sand vaporising in Earth's atmosphere when it enters at 134,000mph. Something larger than a grape will produce a fireball and this is often accompanied by a persistent afterglow known as a meteor train. This is a column of ionised gas slowly fading from view as it loses energy. The Perseids appear to originate from within the star constellation Perseus, hence the shower's name. A shooting star, top left, is seen during the Perseid meteor shower in Poland in 2016.  Credit: EPA/LUKASZ OGRODOWCZYK When can I see the Perseid meteor shower? The window for this year's meteor shower is from July 17 to August 24. Stargazers stand a chance of seeing the shower at any point in this window, however the peak will occur around August 11, 12 and 13.  The best time to take a look at the sky will be from about 1am BST in the Northern Hemisphere until the onset of dawn twilight. Space.com says the moon, which will be three-quarters full at the time of the peak, will rise around 11pm meaning the spectacle will be trickier to see this year. However, sky-watchers should still be able to see the shower, despite the moon's glare.  Peak rates of 150-200 meteors per hour were recorded in 2016, but typical rates are about 80 meteors an hour streaking across the night sky, each leaving a trail.   Complete list of every full moon in 2017  The worlds best stargazing locations How can I see it? Choose a dark location away from stray lights and give yourself at least 20 minutes in total darkness to properly dark adapt. Look at a height approximately two-thirds up the sky in any direction. If you want a recommendation, east through south offers some great background constellations in the early hours during August. Look for the shower's "radiant" from the north-east corner of Perseus. Here are a few great places to view the shower. Galloway Forest Park: Galloway is a couple of hours from Glasgow and an hour from Carlisle. The park's most popular spot for stargazing is Loch Trool. Exmoor and around: Exmoor was granted International Dark-Sky Reserve status by the International Dark-Sky Association in 2011. Light pollution is managed to make the area more appealing to amateur astronomers. Romney Marsh: Night once provided cover for smugglers known as Owlers, but today Romney Marsh offers celestial bounty, arching over a landscape adorned with the spires of ancient churches. Kielder: Kielder Forest is officially the darkest place in England – 250 square miles of wooded beauty where Northumberland brushes against Scotland. It has its own fabulous, modern, wood-clad observatory on the slopes of Black Fell above Kielder Water. North York Moors: As well as stunning night skies, the North York Moors boast historic market towns such as Helmsley and Pickering, plus appealing coastal spots, including Scarborough and Whitby. Reader sends in beautiful Perseid timelapse 00:15 Tell me more about Comet Swift-Tuttle The wonderfully named Comet Swift-Tuttle, the parents of the Persied meteor shower, is the largest object known to repeatedly pass Earth (it's 16 miles wide). It orbits the sun ever 133 years and each time it passes through the inner solar system, it warms up releasing fresh comet material into its orbital stream, according to earthsky.org.  The last time it was closest to the sun was in December 1992. It will be back again in July 2126.  Total solar eclipse 2017: explainer

Immigrants denied credit by Wells Fargo may sue bank, judge says

Posted: 04 Aug 2017 08:39 AM PDT

Immigrants denied credit by Wells Fargo may sue bank, judge saysYoung immigrants denied credit by Wells Fargo Bank because they are not permanent U.S. residents can sue the bank under a post-Civil War law barring discrimination on the basis of immigration status, a federal judge ruled. In a decision on Thursday, U.S. District Judge Maxine Chesney in San Francisco rejected Wells Fargo's argument that lenders are permitted under a more recent federal anti-discrimination law to consider immigration status before granting loans. Filed in January, the proposed class action accused Wells Fargo of denying student loans and credit cards to immigrants granted work permits under the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program enacted by former Democratic President Barack Obama.

In blustery call, Trump pressured Mexico on border wall payment

In blustery call, Trump pressured Mexico on border wall paymentBy Ayesha Rascoe WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump pressured the Mexican president to stop voicing opposition in public to his plan to have Mexico pay for a border wall, according to transcripts of phone calls published on Thursday that gave an insight into Trump's attempts to influence foreign leaders in his first days in office. The Washington Post published texts of sometimes fraught calls with Mexico's Enrique Pena Nieto and Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull just days after the Republican took office on Jan. 20. The substance of the calls has previously been reported but the lengthy transcripts reveal Trump, whose first elected office is the presidency, trying to use a mixture of bluster, tough talk and charm as he fully enters the world of diplomacy.

Venezuela showdown looms over contested new assemblyVenezuela is headed for a fresh showdown as President Nicolas Maduro prepares to inaugurate a powerful new "Constituent Assembly" on Friday, with his opponents vowing massive protests and state prosecutors seeking to block him in court. Attorney General Luisa Ortega's office said on Twitter that state prosecutors had filed a case to block Friday's inauguration, "based on suspected crimes committed" during the election. Ortega, one of Maduro's most vocal critics, has ordered an investigation into "scandalous" electoral fraud, after a British-based technology firm contracted for the vote, Smartmatic, said Maduro had exaggerated the turnout.

This iPhone 8 leak is so fake, it’s hilarious

Posted: 03 Aug 2017 05:35 AM PDT

This iPhone 8 leak is so fake, it's hilariousYou'll probably want to believe this following image is a real leak. Finally seeing a picture of the iPhone 8's retail box may be good news for some iPhone fans, a sign that Apple is indeed going to release the phone at some point in September, instead of delaying its launch. But it's likely a fake, and it's so bad it's hilarious. First of all, these images were posted online by a person called Nick Chen, who joined Twitter in August, as @foxconn_insider. If this is a new leaker, he has no credibility for the time being. We'll have to wait to see whether any other leaks coming from this insider pan out, or whether @OnLeaks starts bashing him publicly for daring to post unverified information online, as he loves to do. https://twitter.com/foxconn_insider/status/892681673988591616 More importantly, that iPhone picture on the purported "iPhone X Edition" box shows one detail that seems to be out of place. The standby/power button on the right side appears to have the same size you'd expect from older iPhones or iPads. But the iPhone 8 — or whatever Apple ends up calling it — will reportedly feature a taller standby button. https://twitter.com/foxconn_insider/status/893037173376782336 Also, why is that picture so out of focus? Why don't we have a close up of the phone on it? After all, Chen went through all the trouble of posting additional images, showing the "iPhone X Edition" logo, and that purported wallpaper — you can see them above and below. But no close up on the one thing we want to see most? https://twitter.com/foxconn_insider/status/893036959442104320 Also, the wallpaper above has a strange 1800 x 1118 resolution. And what's the deal with all the hashtags? I'll just count that as one more red flag. What's certain about the iPhone 8's retail box is that it doesn't have a pattern to follow. Starting with the iPhone 6, Apple created a bunch of unique retail boxes for each handset generation. Some of them showed the handset with the screen turned on (iPhone 6s), others showed the rear side of the phone (iPhone 7), or just an outline on top (iPhone 6). And only the iPhone 6s had the full name printed on the side. Oh, and there's pretty much no way the full name of Apple's upcoming new flagship iPhone is going to be "iPhone X Edition."

Ethiopia lifts emergency rule imposed last October after months of unrestBy Aaron Maasho ADDIS ABABA (Reuters) - Ethiopia on Friday lifted a state of emergency imposed last October following months of protests that killed hundreds of people. More than 29,000 people were arrested during the period and nearly 8,000 of them are on trial for taking part in the violence, Defence Minister Siraj Fegessa said. The unrest was provoked by a development scheme for the capital Addis Ababa and turned into broader anti-government demonstrations over politics and human rights abuses.
