Whaddya mean? Corporate engineers. My team doesn't have any stinking corporate engineers. It is quite possible to have a design made that does not involve any engineers.
A tip to any FIRST team member reading this, don't use very much steel. It's too heavy.
At SJC I actually had to put everything except my keys through the X-Ray machine. This included my wallet. If the metal detector happened to detect my keys, they probably would have gone through too.
Ever heard of the Articles of Confederation? Ever take American History? That's what he was talking about when he said lots of little nations all nearly bankrupt. Imbecile
First off, the story which/. failed to directly link to (as I have just done!) clearly states that dark matter is at the core of the experiment! They have used lasers to compress dark matter to the point where it creates an anti-matter star. While there would certainly be disastrous consequences if this ball of anti-matter were to come into contact with real matter (my first rough sketch comes out to a 350 Megaton yield for each square foot of compressed anti-matter, but feel free to double check) it is made very clear that this pseudo-star (is that what we should call christina aguilera?) is safely contained by the laser containment field.
umm... huh? We don't know of any dark matter. It doesn't say anything about dark matter in the article either. You're just as bad as the guy you were replying to. I can't believe that you got modded up to a 5.
To this day, the military has not specified what that payload was, though I speculate that it was likely a KH-12 spy satellite or a similar vehicle, which is reportedly very similar to the overall design of the Hubble telescope but optimised for looking back at the Earth instead of toward the stars.
You're thinking of the KH-11 series of satelites. The KH-12 was, I believe, a radarsat.
This fact presented problems for the U-2 pilots. What hppened was their altitude was such that they couldn't go much faster without going supersonic, and couldn't go much slow without stalling.
This also made it hard to turn, because you could make one wingtip go supersonic, and have the other one stall.
My school, Los Altos high school, was in the top 16 places at the National competition. We pride ourselves on the fact that the robot was completely built by students. The only thing that the adults at the building site did was supervise so we didn't, say, cut our hands off or something dumb like that.

Nope. Different market.
No.
Dual athlon's in a 1U case means 88 processors in a standard enclosure. You'd need a very good air-conditioner to cool all of them though.
you'd certainly better cover your bases.
Shoot them?

These aren't autonomous either. They are in fact glorified, hand built, radio-controlled go-karts.
Really? my team did quite well last year in the ocmpetition, when pneumatics was a major part of the robot.
The operation in Australia developed the HP-49g. And it is the entire calculator development operation

Yup. You running a web server? That might help. :)

what happens when the fan breaks, and sends 12V down the 5V line? Bye bye motherboard.

THis was in Air & Space a while ago. Actually, the formulation is similar to what we use today for solid rocket fuel.

People drive safely on highways? Really?
Wow! What country are you from?

Our team placed 4 in our division.
go Eagle strike!
And the competition started Friday morning!
