Sun Blast Captured On Film By A P Science Reporter
Sun flare records a sky burning eruption on Feb 10 shown by coronagraph footage at Sacramento Peak Observatory. Dr. Menzel calls the event a record flare with a knot of gas reaching 700 miles per second, expelling a billion tons of hydrogen and energy equal to 100 million H bombs. Ultraviolet light disrupted radio, while the flare’s cause remains uncertain. The article also notes mapping shifts in the Amazon Basin’s Tapajos River.

Air cockpit air compression impractical at high altitude
The National Geographic Society says air compression for cockpit use becomes impractical around eighty thousand feet. Equipment grows too large and generates excessive heat, making the system untenable for flight.
