Arc of East Ascension holds landmark DFC fundraiser – Weekly Citizen

Posted: at 5:25 am

Greg Fischer Editor-in-chief @AscensionEditor

Local Ascension professionals and pro dancers entertained a large crowd at the Lamar Dixon 4-H building on Saturday, July 8 with a parish version of the popular TV show Dancing with the Stars.

The fundraiser, coined Dancing for a Cause (DFC), was a huge success according to Arc of East Ascension's Public Relations and Marketing Director Sharon Morris and also Sheriff Jeff Wiley in his opening remarks. The night was full of cheers and laughter.

"What [people] can expect tonight is hard work and dedication from some business employees in the community who have dedicated their time and raised money for the Arc," Arc of East Ascension President Allison Hudson said. "They will be dancing. They have had six weeks of practice with professional dancers, and they have enjoyed raising money. We are thankful for all of the funds that they raised, obviously for the Arc, that will go towards our individuals."

Louis LeFebrve III of Main Street Dental Care stole the show. He had an enormous group cheering on he and his partner, Alyssa Babin. Besides winning the competition, he outsold the runner up more than twice. His business raised $14,990 for the Arc of EA. In second place was Jackie Baumann with $7440, and in third place was Jackie Tisdell with $6650.

Coincidentally, the judges picks coincided with the top three fundraisers. Tisdell was also the fan favorite.

"I would like to thank the community and all sponsors for their generosity and support," Morris said. "Special Thanks to Alsie Dunbar for getting some of the gifts donated for the Star Dancers."

Food and drink was abundant. This year's DFC event ran from 6-10 p.m.

SpaceX goes thereseeks government funds for deep space – Ars Technica

Posted: at 5:25 am

Enlarge / The view of a landed Falcon 9 first stage booster in June, 2017, in Florida.

SpaceX

During the last decade, NASA has invested billions of dollars into programs with private companies to carry cargo and, eventually, astronauts to the International Space Station. These commercial services were powered by new kinds of contracts for the agency, because they offered a "fixed price" for services and required companies to put in their own funding to develop new spacecraft and rockets.

But the space agency has established a Maginot line of sorts around the planet when it comes to deep space exploration. For example, less than a year ago, NASA's then-administrator, Charles Bolden, said he's "not a big fan" of commercial companies building large, heavy lift rockets that will enable private companies to venture beyond low-Earth orbit. For Bolden, the lines were clear: we'll support you near Earth, but leave deep space to the professionals. "We believe our responsibility to the nation is to take care of things that normal people cannot do, or dont want to do, like large launch vehicles," Bolden saidof NASA.

Nevertheless, SpaceX, Blue Origin, and other companies have pressed forward with their plans to develop large rockets capable of deep space exploration. And they're making progress. SpaceX's Falcon Heavy booster, which has 90 percent of the lift capability to low Earth orbit as the initial version of NASA's Space Launch System, is likely to fly in 2017up to two years before NASA's own big rocket.

On Thursday during a hearing before the US Senate's Subcommittee on Space, Science, and Competitiveness, SpaceX formally called upon the US government to support public-private partnerships in deep space. Tim Hughes, SpaceX's senior vice president for global business and government affairs,testified."The principles applied in past programs for low Earth orbit capability can and should be applied to deep space exploration," Hughes said. He referred toNASA's Commercial Orbital Transportation Services, or COTS program.

NASA, Hughes said, should now consider funding a COTS-like program to run "in parallel" to NASA's Space Launch System and Orion spacecraft for deep space exploration. "There's a program of record right now that is NASA's central focus for deep space exploration," Hughes said in response to a Senator's question. "But I think it can be readily supplemented with public-private partnerships to allow us to sustain a permanent presence in space."

As examples, Hughes said NASA could set "high level requirements" for companies, such as demonstrating the vertical takeoff and landing of rockets from the lunar surface, delivering large amounts of cargo to the surface of Mars, or building a more reliable communications network between Earth and Mars. All of these projects, he said, would enable the United States to establish a permanent presence in space, rather than fly one-off missions.

Hughes also offered evidence that the COTS program has benefited both NASA and SpaceX to a large degree. For example, in 2011, NASA estimatedthat it would have cost the agency about $4 billion to develop a rocket like the Falcon 9 booster based upon NASA's traditional contracting processes. A more "commercial development" approach might have allowed the agency to pay only $1.7 billion.

However, by setting a high-level requirement for cargo transport to the space stationand leaving the details to industrySpaceX was allowed to design and develop the Falcon 9 rocket on its own, Hughes said. The cost? According to NASA's own independently verified numbers, SpaceXs development costs of both the Falcon 1 and Falcon 9 rockets were estimated at approximately $390 million in total.NASA got a better deal, and SpaceX got a rocket it could use to fly commercial payloads as well as NASA ones.

It is not clear how warm the senators were to SpaceX's plan, which shares support in the commercial space community from others interested in deep space activities (such as Blue Origin, with its Blue Moon concept). "I think the COTS program has been a great success story for NASA and the commercial marketplace, and believe that the government should look at all options for public private partnership in advancing our nation's exploration goals," said Eric Stallmer, president of the Commercial Spaceflight Federation.

However, some at NASA will likely resist the notion, as it would mean relinquishing some of the control they have over design and development of rockets and spacecraft under the agency's traditional, cost-plus contracting methods. The beneficiaries of those contractsincluding Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Aerojet Rocketydyne, and other established aerospace companiesare also likely to be less than welcoming toward NASA opening the door to competition in deep space exploration to new space firms.

Moon Express Announces Plan for Solar System Exploration – Seeker

Posted: at 5:25 am

The quest to win a $30 million race to the moon is just the first part of Moon Express' grand plan.

The Florida-based companyis developing an entire family of spacecraft designed to help usher in a new age of low-cost space exploration, from the moon to Mars and beyond,Moon Expressrepresentatives revealed today (July 12).

"That's where my heart is solar system exploration on a grand scale that democratizes and completely accelerates our evolution into the solar system through knowledge and discovery, not just a few expensive voyages sponsored by kings and governments, like in history," Moon Express CEO and co-founder Bob Richards told Space.com. "We need to get everybody going." [In Images: How Moon Express' Space Exploration Plan Works]

Shooting for the Moon As its name suggests, Moon Express' vision starts with Earth's nearest neighbor. The company is one of five teams left in theGoogle Lunar X Prize(GLXP) competition, which will award $20 million to the first privately funded group to soft-land a robot on the moon, move it at least 1,640 feet (500 meters) across the lunar surface and beam high-resolution imagery and video back to Earth. (Prizes for several other accomplishments bring the total purse up to $30 million.)

The GLXP award will expire if nobody claims it by Dec. 31, 2017. Moon Express has signed a contract to fly its lander aboard Rocket Lab's new Electron booster but has yet to announce a launch date.

The two-stage Electron lifted off for the first time in late May. The maiden voyage was apartial success; the rocket's second stage failed to reach its desired orbit, according to Rocket Lab representatives.

"I think that first test flight bodes very well for Rocket Lab, and we're still rooting for them and hoping that they'll have an operational vehicle ramped up and ready for us by the end of the year," Richards said.

Big Plans The GLXP mission won't be the last lunar voyage for Moon Express, if all goes according to plan. Its deal with Rocket Lab covers up to five launches, and Moon Express wants at least two more to occur in the next few years, Richards revealed during a news conference today.

The first post-GLXP mission, scheduled to launch in 2019, will set up a robotic research outpost near the lunar south pole and prospect forwater and other resources. Then, in 2020, Moon Express will launch the first commercial lunar sample-return mission. That effort, Richards said, should prove out the company's technologies and its business model, which is centered around creating low-cost access to the moon's surface for a variety of customers.

The core piece of hardware to make all of that happen is a single-enginelander called the MX-1, which will launch on the GLXP flight. Moon Express aims to mass-produce the MX-1, sell it as a stand-alone lunar explorer and have it serve as a building block for three larger, more capable spacecraft the MX-2, the MX-5 and the MX-9, Richards said today.

The MX-2 combines two MX-1s into a single package, boosting the MX-1's payload capacity in Earth-moon space and potentially enabling missions to Venus or themoons of Mars. As their names suggest, the MX-5 and MX-9 incorporate five engines and nine engines, respectively, and broaden the exploration envelope even further, Richards said.

All of these spacecraft will be available in orbiter, lander, and deep-space variations, and the MX-5 and MX-9 vehicles will also come in a sample-return configuration.

Moon Express has not revealed how much it will charge for any of these spacecraft. However, company representatives have said that, together, the MX-1 and Electron can deliver a lunar mission for less than $10 million (that's "cost," not retail). Electron flights currently sell for about $5.5 million apiece, putting the lander's raw cost at $4.5 million or less.

Therefore, the potential exists to cut space-exploration costs significantly for example, by an order of magnitude or so on MX-9 missions, Richards said.

"That's when you get a radical price reduction a collapse, really, of the costs down to hundreds of thousands of dollars a kilogram [of payload to the lunar surface] from the millions that it is today for smaller systems," he told Space.com. "I really hope that we're able to do for lunar access whatcubesatsdid for access to low Earth orbit."

The moon is the focus in the short term, but the company hopes its reach will expand as time goes on.

"We're notTheMoon Express," Richards said. "We're Moon Express, so any moon will do."

Space exploration can make us rich, one day! – Daily Pakistan

Posted: at 5:25 am

Space exploration has taught us a lot about the Universe and even our Earth but the learning comes with a hefty price. Finally, it might be possible to earn money from space or even make you rich. Planetary exploration only provides knowledge but a set of celestial bodies no one really cares of are Asteroids, which can actually earn you money, really big money.

Scientists claim that asteroids can be a source wealth worth millions or trillions of dollars. Often referred to as junk of the space, asteroids contain Platinum group metals, which are rare on Earth but vital to run high-tech devices like smartphones and laptops. Astronomers speculate that some asteroids can contain platinum group metals more than are reserves of the entire Earth. No baloney but a fact that an asteroid that whizzed past us in 2015 likely contained 90 million metric tons (90,000,000,000 KG) of platinum group metals.The hidden wealth on the mystic, wayward body amounted around $5 trillion. Other abundant metals asteroids carry in their core may include iron, nickel and cobalt.

Yet, the most precious resource might be water. So expensive it is to carry water from Earth to the space that 1-liter water bottle costs around $5,000.If there are reliable sources of water above the stratosphere, the space travel could become a bit cheaper but a lot more interesting. Water is necessary for cooling of a lot of space stations or perhaps a radiation shield for astronauts. Its most lucrative use would be to split it into hydrogen and oxygen and use both the basic elements in rocket fuel after more complex scientific process aboard the spaceship. If possible, all the water-resourced asteroids can turn into pit shops in space, allowing spacecraft to refuel and venture away.

Another highly potential source of water could be the dear moon. Not only could the moon contain water, it may potentially contain other elements like Helium 3, which is extremely rare on Earth. Speculated total value of moons resources ranges anywhere between 150 to 500 Quadrillion dollars. Although space mining isnt possible yet, several companies are investing heavily to unlock terrestrial treasure troves.

Another factor preventing scientists from exploring asteroids is its gravity (often referred as micro-gravity). An asteroids gravity can be too weak to hold down a spacecraft, as it is neither a star nor a planet but the tumbleweed of cosmos. As landing a spacecraft isnt an option, space engineers are working on a method to dock it, much like how vehicles dock on Earth, and conduct drilling and extraction processes. While docking is a big challenge in itself, even bigger is which ones are worth going to. It is very likely that the scientists may land on one without any worthwhile substances. Of 1,500 asteroids loitering in Earths vicinity, it wont be easy to detect the useful ones. Thankfully, infrared technology helps with that, but wait a few more year for the technology to become sophisticated enough. Moreover, its arduous to establish if the readings are accurate.

Although an asteroids micro-gravity isnt strong enough to land spacecrafts, it can still greatly mess with them. We have only visited a few planets or celestial entities so far, most of whom are in uniform shape with uniform gravitational pull. Since an asteroid neither has a molten core, nor is broken from any star, it has an irregular shape with gravity varying from one point to another. The unusual gravitation pull could also cause some issues for astronauts if one ever landed on an asteroid.

There are some optimistic companies, which think it is possible. Deep Space Industries believes they can mine asteroids by 2027. NASA Resource Prospector Mission is also pretty confident on being the first company to mine the moon, in the hopes of launching a craft in 2020. Some ongoing missions with the intent of mining asteroids include OSIRIS-REx, Hayabusa 2, Asteroid redirect mission and Fobos-Grunt 2.

Since we know so little about space mining, things could go horribly wrong. As asteroids are not that large in size, mining them for substances could create fissures and openings in them, and possibly affecting gravity instantly if not splitting them into pieces. Nonetheless, the utmost terrifying danger could be if the asteroid collapses in on itself, devouring the astronauts and the spacecraft.

Active Runner in Focus: Nanotech Security Corp (NTS.V) – JCTY News

Posted: at 5:24 am

Shares ofNanotech Security Corp (NTS.V) is moving on volatility today1.60% or $0.02 rom the open.TheTSXV listed companysaw a recent bid of $1.27 on93900 volume.Active investors are typically interested in the factors that drive stock price movements. Buying an individual stock means that you own a piece of the company. The hope is that the company does very well and becomes highly profitable. A profitable company may decide to do various things with the profits. They may reinvest profits back into the business, or they may choose to pay shareholders dividends from those earnings. Sometimes stocks may eventually become undervalued or overvalued. Spotting these trends may lead to further examination or the underlying fundamentals of the company. A company that continues to disappoint on the earnings front may have some issues that need to be addressed. It is highly important to make sure all the research is done on a stock, especially if the investor is heavily weighted on the name. Sometimes earnings reports may be good, but the stock price does not reflect that. Having a good understanding of the entire picture may help investors better travel the winding stock market road.

Now letstake a look at how the fundamentals are stacking up for Nanotech Security Corp (NTS.V). Fundamental analysis takes into consideration market, industry and stock conditions to help determine if the shares are correctly valued. Nanotech Security Corp currently has a yearly EPS of -0.13. This number is derived from the total net income divided by shares outstanding. In other words, EPS reveals how profitable a company is on a share owner basis.

When dealing with the equity markets, investors are often tasked with trying to find stocks that are bound for glory. Every investor dreams of finding those stocks that were overlooked but are poised to pick up momentum. New investors are often instructed to set goals before starting to invest. Creating attainable, realistic goals can be a good starting point before digging into the investment trenches. After setting up goals considering financial status, objectives, timeframes and risk appetite, the next step may involve creating an actionable plan. Once the plan is in place, it may be extremely important to routinely monitor the performance of the portfolio. There are often many well crafted investment plans that for whatever reason dont seem to be working out properly. Being able to evaluate and adjust the plan based on market activity may end up being the difference between a winning or losing portfolio. Being able to adapt to the fast paced and often times tumultuous market landscape can be a gigantic benefit for long-term portfolio health.

Another key indicator that can help investors determine if a stock might be a quality investment is the Return on Equity or ROE. Nanotech Security Corp (NTS.V) currently has Return on Equity of -43.71. ROE is a ratio that measures profits generated from the investments received from shareholders.

In other words, the ratio reveals how effective the firm is at turning shareholder investment into company profits. A company with high ROE typically reflects well on management and how well a company is run at a high level. A firm with a lower ROE might encourage potential investors to dig further to see why profits arent being generated from shareholder money.

Another ratio we can look at is the Return on Invested Capital or more commonly referred to as ROIC. Nanotech Security Corp (NTS.V) has a current ROIC of -36.08. ROIC is calculated by dividing Net Income Dividends by Total Capital Invested.

Similar to ROE, ROIC measures how effectively company management is using invested capital to generate company income. A high ROIC number typically reflects positively on company management while a low number typically reflects the opposite.

Turning to Return on Assets or ROA, Nanotech Security Corp (NTS.V) has a current ROA of -31.16. This is a profitability ratio that measures net income generated from total company assets during a given period. This ratio reveals how quick a company can turn its assets into profits. In other words, the ratio provides insight into the profitability of a firms assets. The ratio is calculated by dividing total net income by the average total assets.

A higher ROA compared to peers in the same industry, would suggest that company management is able to effectively generate profits from their assets. Similar to the other ratios, a lower number might raise red flags about managements ability when compared to other companies in a similar sector.

With the stock market still cranking along, new investors may be wondering if they are too late to join the party. Picking stocks when everything is on the up can be much easier than trying to find winners when the markets sour. Taking a ride on the stock market roller coaster can indeed provide many ups, but also just as many downs. If there was a sure fire stock picking method that always produced winners, the ride would no doubt be smooth but much less thrilling.

MAPPED: North Korea missile could hit Las Vegas and these EIGHT other cities – Daily Star

Posted: at 5:24 am

NORTH KOREA could fire a deadly nuke missile capable of wiping out entire cities along the US's west coast including Las Vegas.

Daily Star Online previously reported shock analysis from a missile expert that an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) could bypass US defence systems.

Now we can map the very cities it could wipe out after the boffin said the Hermit State is making an ICBM capable of travelling a massive 9,700km.

The expert, John Schilling, said that when all the bugs are worked out the missile will be able to blast US shores.

Since 2008, photographer Eric Lafforgue ventured to North Korea six times. Thanks to digital memory cards, he was able to save photos that was forbidden to take inside the segregated state

Taking pictures in the DMZ is easy, but if you come too close to the soldiers, they stop you

This means California could be thrown into the target zone, with the likes of San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego falling within the radius.

Crazy Kim Jong-uns nuke could also wipe out popular Brit gambling destination Las Vegas, which is 9,200km away in Nevada.

The expert predicts such a nuke is two years away from being produced, but if Kim succeeds, there are numerous other cities he could take aim at.

Tubby tyrant Kim Jong-un gloats as the world reacts to the news of his successful test of an intercontinental ballistic missile. As Trump took to Twitter to slam the secretive state, the world watches in fear: is this how WW3 starts?

The likes of Seattle in Washington, Denver in Colorado, Portland in Oregon, Salt Lake City in Utah and Phoenix in Arizona also fall within the 9,700km zone.

We previously reported US defence chiefs fear the communist state is developing an ICBM capable of going as far as 8,000km.

But those fears were heightened when Kim test fired a Hwasong-14 ICBM into the Sea of Japan last week.

The North Koreans won't be able to achieve this performance tomorrow, but they likely will eventually

Writing for the 38 North website, aerospace engineer Mr Schilling said: If the Hwasong-14 is put together the way we think it is, it can probably do a bit better than that when all the bugs are worked out

The North Koreans won't be able to achieve this performance tomorrow, but they likely will eventually.

"A range of as much as 9,700 kilometers, approximately the distance from North Korean launch sites to the US naval base at San Diego, would be possible with a 500 kg payload.

To give an idea of just how far North Koreas planned missile could travel, the distance from the UK to Japan is 9,400km, and from the UK to Darwin, northern Australia, is 13,600km.
