Lamborghini designs four door prototype

Lamborghini has made the last weeks very very interested in their new four door prototype the Estoque. It looks just like their Reventon but with four doors, a front engine with less power, and some changes of the chassis. It lies fully in the trend with its long front and short rear deck and two huge very Reventon like air intakes. In the back it has a very nice carbon diffuser and a huge also Reventon like exhaust. They made us even more interested by telling us that we could expect a 560 Hp engine from the Gallardo Lp 560-4 as well as a four wheel drive. It will maybe show up at the Paris motor show. It is said that it will be put on the Market to compete with the Porsche Panamera and the Aston Martin Rapide.

Russia sends more troops to Africa

In the last weeks, Pirate attacks in Africa have grown in an abnormal fashion. Russia sends military troops there to secure tankers with oil and Gas. In this area, there is already an aid ship called Neustrashimy. It helped the crew of ships in many scenarios. But 1 ship is not enough for such a huge area so some more ships need to pack their crew and move there. The Russian government said in September their ships would work alone but the Neustrashimy grouped earlier also with the British ship HMS Cumberland to fight against the Pirates. NATO has already sent many ships (number unknown) to the Horn of Africa.

Mars Mission

Mars Mission
The Phoenix Lander has been silent since 2.11.2008 the experts of NASA said. They expected this would happen, but they hope, the Lander will work again in spring on mars (spring on mars
is in December).

The Lander worked for five months. It has scientific instruments on board, to examine materials on Mars. The scientists got a lot of information about materials on Mars.

NASA knows the reason for the damage on Mars. Dust storms covered the sunlight. This affected the Phoenix Lander which depends on solar energy to function.

Meanwhile winter is on Mars - the days grow shorter and shorter and the temperature decreases continuously. The Lander is now covered with ice and snow. Therefore the batteries cannot be recharged and the Lander cannot operate any longer.
But there is still hope that the Lander will restart next spring...

A German veteran became 107 years old this year and a French one aged to 110 years old. But the oldest one is 112 years old.

Archaeologists found 4300 years old pyramid

Archaeologists found 19 kilometers south of Giza a 4300 years old pyramid .All that remains is a square-shaped 5-meter tall and 22 meters long structure that had get covered under 25 meters of sand. They calculated that the pyramid over 14 meters high. Since 2 years they work on it, but they actually discovered it 2 weeks ago. In Egypt there were already 118 pyramids discovered until now, but the specialists say that this one is a special one because it belonged to a queen. At the moment they can only think about, witch queen it belonged to, but they think, it belonged to queen Sesheshet, who is thought to have played a important role in establishing the 6th Dynasty. They only think, because near to her, there is the pyramid of her son Till, witch was discovered 20 years before. His two girlfriends were already discovered 100 years ago. In about 2 weeks they will find the chamber inside the pyramid, where they hope to find proof of its owner. Dieter Wildung, head of Berlin's Egyptian Museum and a leading Egyptologists in Europe, said, that their claim is very plausible and that this could be a very special found.

Egypt's antiquities chief Zahi Hawass in front of the found pyramid:

Mars Lander „Phoenix” stopped working

Last week the mars Lander „Phoenix” which landed on May 25, finally stopped working. This Lander landed near the pole of Mars. It needed to search for water in the form of ice.



After landing, it started to work and found ice a few centimeters under the sand. But a few days after a sand storm blew over the Lander and because of that, its solar panels that recharge its batteries ran low and stopped working. This sand storm went on for weeks and Houston (main control) thought that everything was over. But when the sandstorm went away the solar panels started to work again and after a short time the Lander got energy again. After this it went to work again but in November the Martian winter came and it stopped working again. On November 2 the last data was sent to earth. Now the representatives from NASA hope that the lander survives another disaster, like the sandstorm. Because of this mission to Mars, many people now know more about the soil on mars and can wonder if there ever was life on that Planet.
