flight

They are a quick way to check that the flight is going well

by

The process of entering a plane is anything but placid: a queue that seems eternal, making sure you don’t lose your luggage, your identification and other valuable objects, making sure you find your seat and where to put your suitcase. And in the middle, a lot of people in the same situation as you and who seem infinitely slower and more annoying than you. But that’s it, it’s already happened: you’ve already sat down, you’ve fastened your seatbelt and you’re waiting for takeoff. My condolences if it has touched you in the middle. If you are in the hallway, congratulations: you will be able to stretch a little more and get out more easily. And if you are at the window, you can better observe the takeoff and landing and rest your head. And furthermore, you will see better that triangle over the window. A triangle to enjoy the views and verify that everything is going well Sometimes it is red, sometimes it is black and it is not on all the windows: in fact there are usually one or two triangles on each side of the cabin and at a certain height above the seat on the side wall, which is why you may never have noticed them. Because we usually know where the nearest emergency exit is (thanks to the explanations of the flight attendants team), but the triangle is not so easy to see even though it is of crucial importance. In fact, you may have never seen it, but the cabin crew is very clear where it is both before and during the flight. As explains aviation expert and former commercial pilot Daniel Bubb, those triangles indicate the windows from which there is better vision of the wings. It is clear that in that window you can take very cool photos for Instagram, but the reason for being is different: “Helping crew members when there is an emergency or a failure in the flaps, slats, engine or other parts (…) It allows them to identify the location of the problem more quickly.” Knowing this, if you see the cabin crew looking out of that window from time to time it may give you a little respect, but a relatively frequent check does not mean that something is wrong, since it is also used to verify that the wing is deicing correctly and that everything is going well, he adds. Small, private planes and some older models do not have them as long as the triangles They are not mandatory but they are useful for the crew, but it is normal that you will find at least two. Each of them is located on each side of the plane, just above the window that lines up with the edges of the wing on the outside. Of course, if the plane is larger, there may be two triangles on each side, thus marking the leading edge and trailing edge of the wing. To that seat in aviation is known like the “William Shatner Seat”a cultural nod to the episode ‘Nightmare at 20,000 Feet’ of “The Twilight Zone“ October 1963 where Shatner saw a gremlin on the wing of the plane. I haven’t had the pleasure of seeing it, but yes that Simpsons reference in a House of Terror special. Going in that seat has its advantages. The first is obvious: it offers a magnificent point of view for taking photographs and videos. However, it can also be useful if you are not too excited about flying: you can see for yourself how everything is fine and the de-icing process before takeoff. In addition, it offers a smoother flight sensation as turbulence and abrupt landing and takeoff are less noticeable. It sounds so appealing that the next question would be to know which row that seat corresponds to, but as there are different models and configurations of airplanes, there is no single answer. Of course, if you want to increase the probability that it will be your turn, look at the seat map and select the ones closest to the ends of the wing. If one day you are lucky and your assigned seat is that, enjoy the views.

There is already a date for the last flight of the Megacohete Starship as we know it: v3, heat what you go out

by

Spacex is ready to move on to the next chapter. Elon Musk’s company has announced the eleventh date Starship test flight: The last launch of the current version of the rocket, which will give way to a new iteration much more powerful. Next Monday, October 13, it could be the day we see the Starship V2 furrow the heavens for the last time. Starship’s 11 flight is here. As Ha confirmed Spacexthe launch window will open at 18:15 CT (01:15 in the morning of Tuesday 14 during Spanish peninsular schedule). As usual, the company will broadcast the live flight from Starbase through its website and its X profile, starting the broadcast about 30 minutes before takeoff. This eleventh flight will not be a simple repetition of the previous one (The first successful after a failure streak). In addition to serving as a final brooch for the second version of Starship, it will make a test bench for technologies that will be implemented in the expected V3. Spacex plans to bring both the Super Heavy propeller and the Starship ship with a series of experiments designed to collect data for future releases. A goodbye in style. Flight 11 will have as its protagonist the Super Heavy 15 propeller, which had already blown successfully during flight 8. 24 of its 33 engines will take off for the second … and last time. For this launch, the Super Heavy will try a new configuration in the landing maneuver. Instead of the three usual raptor engines, it will turn on five during its final phase, which will be the standard configuration in the Super Heavy V3 for a matter of redundancy. But the objective is not to recover it for the second time with the arms of the tower, but simulate a soft ametering about the Gulf of Mexico to study the dynamics of the vehicle during the complex transitions of off and ignition of landing engines. Another starship to the limit. The Starship ship has an agenda similar to that of the previous flight. On its suborbital trip, it will deploy eight Starlink satellite simulators and turn one of its engines again in the emptiness of the space, practicing for future orbital insertion maneuvers. Perhaps the most striking is the stress test to which its thermal shield will be submitted. Spacex has deliberately retired several ceramic tiles, including some critical areas that lack a secondary protection layer, to see how they behave during the reentry. The final trajectory will include a banqueo of the ship to imitate the approach that the future Starship will make when returning to the launch base. The shocking, if everything goes as planned, will be again in the Indian Ocean, in broad daylight. The generational jump V2 to V3. As he points out Next Spaceflightthis flight will be the last one for Starship version 2 and for the current Starbase launch platform configuration. Spacex prepares to welcome the Starship V3. The differences between versions are significant. While the V2, with its 123 meters high, can put about 35 tons in low orbit, the V3 will grow slightly to 124.4 meters, firing its useful load capacity up to 100 tons. The thrust at the time of takeoff will also increase from the current 74,400 kilonewtons to more than 80,800 kN. A giant jump that will allow Spacex to display its new generation Starlink network, and then focus on the ultimate goal of getting to Mars.

NASA is so obsessed with defeating China that, instead of delaying its next flight to the moon, it has advanced it

by

It seemed like him Artemis program It was intended to be delayed again and again, but NASA’s last movement betrays the enormous geopolitical pressure of the moment. Artemis II, the mission with which the United States will return to lunar orbit for the first time in more than 50 years, is no longer scheduled for April 2026. They have advanced the launch window to February 5. A declaration of intentions. This two -month advance is not a simple recalibration of the calendar of the Artemis missions. It is the NASA’s evening response to the feeling that the United States is staying behind the Methodical Lunar Program of China. NASA recognizes that “there is a desire that we are the first to return to the surface of the moon,” and Artemis II is a first step. The mission without a launic had been postponed from 2024 to 2025, and then to “not before April 2026”. Now the launch window opens two months before: on February 5, 2026, leaving as a deadline “not later April 2026”. Solving the ghosts of Artemis I. To understand why this advance is significant, you have to remember why Artemis II was delayed first. The main cause was the thermal shield of the Orion ship. After the return of the mission without crew Artemis I in 2022, NASA’s engineers found a disturbing surprise: the Orion shield had lost pieces of protective material. The gases generated by the heat of the reentry did not dissipate as planned, creating an overpressure that started fragments of the shield. After almost two years of research, NASA says having understood and solved the problem with “maximum trust.” Of course, the solution is quite simple: they have modified the trajectory of the ship in their return to the earth to prevent the high temperatures that caused the failure. Next to him, NASA has solved other minor failures such as liquid hydrogen leaks that plagued the launch attempts of Artemis I. The second space race. “The administration has asked us to recognize being in what is commonly called a second space race,” said the buliesha Hawkins, NASA’s attached administrator. His current boss, Sean Duffy, agency administrator and Trump’s Secretary of Transportation, has a more direct rhetoric: “We are going to win the Chinese on the moon.” The fear in Washington is that China, which plans to send its first astronauts to the lunar surface in 2030, the American Mission Artemis III is ahead. While the Artemis program accumulated delays (largely due to the slowness of the Spacex Starship ship, necessary for the Aunidation of Artemis III), the Chinese program advanced with a firm step and without making a lot of noise. Experts in China’s spatial capacities such as Dean Cheng have come to affirm which is “quite likely that the Chinese terrify on the moon before NASA.” Advance Artemis II (the previous step without alansimiza) is the form that NASA has to demonstrate that it is still in the game. What is Artemis II. Its main objective is to certify that the Orion ship and the SLS rocket can take humans to the moon safely. For ten days, American astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch, as well as Canadian Jeremy Hansenthey will go around the moon without landing, following a free return trajectory that will bring them back to the earth. The mission also has an important symbolic burden. They will be the first humans in more than 50 years to leave the orbit low terrestrial, traveling further than any other human being in history, more than 9,000 kilometers from the hidden face of the moon. From this unique perspective, They will carry out crucial geological observationsphotographing craters and old lava flows. They could even be the first humans to see with their own eyes the eastern basin, a gigantic structure on the boundary between the visible face and the hidden face of the moon. Their descriptions and data will be vital for the alunage of Artemis III. The great irony. The advance of Artemis II is a calculated movement. NASA shows the world that it has overcome its technical problems and is ready to accelerate. Artemis II is not just a step towards the moon, it is a sprint in a geopolitical career and for the control of lunar resources. The great contradiction is that, while NASA accelerates the overflight of Artemis II, its star mission, the alun of Artemis III planned for 2027, remains in serious trouble. Just a few days ago, the agency’s security advisors panel launched a blunt warning: They doubt that the modified version of the Spacex Starship is ready on time. His estimate is that he could accumulate a “year” delay. Therefore, the result of this space race is still open.

The first flight will be in 2026 and points to its next great plane

A wing that changes in full flight and a manufacturer who wants to reimagine the aviation of short and medium radio. Airbus prepares to test in real conditions a concept that has been maturing time in its research programs. It is not a laboratory exercise: the company has marked 2026 As a date for the first take -off of its demonstrator, an aircraft that will serve to explore if this technology can be transferred to the single corridor aircraft. The challenge is ambitious: lay the foundations of what will be the great heir of the A320. For the manufacturer, the X-Wing is a piece within a much larger technological puzzle. The company works In disruptive engines, recyclable materials and smart platforms, and needs to decide which combinations offer more advantages. The wing capable of modifying its form is emerging as the ideal candidate to demonstrate savings in consumption and improvements in flight behavior. More than an isolated prototype, it is a test bank conceived to contrast theoretical models with data obtained in real operations. A flying laboratory to test the wing that is transformed into the air The aeronautical builder decided to transform a citation VII into a flying laboratory. The aircraft, usually used in executive aviation, received a large -scale compound that mimics, on a reduced scale, that of a future commercial plane. To join both elements, specific transition boxes were designed, which in addition to guaranteeing structural resistance provides space for fuel and the landing system. This solution allowed to overcome the limitations of a fuselage not manufactured by Airbus and let off The demonstrator. The demonstrator’s key is how the wing adapts to flight conditions. To prevent greater size from implying more weight, engineers incorporated a semi -eelastic hinge in the tips, capable of freeing themselves in situations of intense turbulence and thus reduce structural loads. At the same time, the back of the wing includes three flaps with small tabulators that can move independently and quickly. With this combination, the profile of the wing changes, optimizing support and reducing drag in each flight phase. The European company wanted the demonstrator to reflect the philosophy of its line aircraft and replaced the conventional system of controls for a Fly-By-Wire complete. All surfaces, from ailerons to rear stabilizers, are governed by electric actuators linked to control computers. The device will be handled remotely from land, without the need for crew on board, which opens margin for more demanding tests. Before flying, the X-Wing must overcome a battery of tests on land. The European manufacturer plans structural vibration tests and alar load during this year, steps necessary to validate the design. Airbus has asked the French Civil Aviation Authority (DGAC) for the flight permit, which will allow to operate from Cazauxf, south of Bordeaux. The calendar provides shooting on the second quarter of 2026 and a first takeoff in the middle of the year, with expected flights over the Vizcaya Gulf. Prototype in a Cessna Citation VII Beyond the Ala, the Airbus roadmap includes New Generation Energy Systems and Energy Systems. Among them stands out the Open Fan, developed with CFM, which seeks an efficiency improvement of two digits and will be validated in flight with an A380 before the end of the decade. The aeronautical builder also bets on expanding the use of fuels sustainable up to 100% and for introducing hybrid architectures. The latter will use electricity in on -board tasks and further reduce the emissions of each journey. Innovation is not limited to the wing or engine: It also reaches materials. Airbus is testing advanced thermoplastic compounds that promise to lighten the structure and, at the same time, make it more sustainable. In the face of current compounds, these can be recycled more easily and allow more agile manufacturing cycles. The MFFD project has served as a test bank, showing that it is possible to reduce weight without increasing costs. The Filton plant, in the United Kingdom, has become one of the nerve centers of this transformation. The future plane will not be built only with more efficient wings or different motors, it will also depend on a common digital system that provides new capacities. The European company works on connected platforms capable DE Update in real timeintegrate applications and anticipate faults with predictive maintenance. Automation also will have a growing role in assistance to the pilot and in land operations. The X-Wing is, in this sense, an initial piece of a greater puzzle: demonstrate which technologies are mature and which ones should wait before making the commercial leap.

Starship ended as an orange after flight 10. Spacex has not explained the reason, but the Internet has its theories

by

Starship’s tenth test has been a resounding success. The highest rocket in history took up a lot of expectation after three failed pitches, but this time one by one fulfilled the objectives of the mission. What surprised many was the orange color that the ship had when it merited in the Indian Ocean, a tone that we had not seen so far. Extreme suffering. After displaying Starlink Satellites simulators for the first time, Starship 37 lit an engine in the exorbitant space. It was then that Spacex tested the structure of the ship. An especially hard reentry angle, a series of aggressive maneuvers with the ailerons and a deliberately incomplete thermal shield made the ship suffer, but never disintegrated or stop maneuvering. Unlike flights 7, 8 and 9, which did not have a controlled reentry, flight 10 has allowed Spacex to collect an incalculable amount of data to improve Starship’s most critical and green part: Your reusable thermal shield. And it is precisely the thermal shield in the rocket belly that seems to have acquired an orange color after 26,000 km/ha 12 km/h. But how did that rusty tone occur if the thermal tiles are ceramic? A buoy and a mystery. Although Spacex has not yet pronounced on the subject, the images of the Ship 37 issued live from a buoy in the Indian Ocean called the attention of fans and aerospace experts equally. While the ship’s belly seems to have churruscado, the main theories do not point to The tiles fall Or they were burned, but for something deposited on them. The location of the experimental metal tiles at the vertex of the orange cone A refrigerant leak. The hypothesis that has gained the most force is the one that points to one of the key experiments of this flight: a metal tile with active cooling In the upper part of the thermal shield. Unlike the usual ceramic tiles, which are passive insulators, this experimental piece leaves circular cohete refrigerant to dissipate heat. The theory, supported by Analysts like Scott Manleysuggests that the tile with active cooling could have suffered a leak. The refrigerant fluid (perhaps methane of the rocket itself), by escaping and coming into contact with the incandescent plasma of the reentry, would have been burned and deposited throughout the fuselage, creating that characteristic feature of orange -shaped cone color that is appreciated in the images. In fact, the location of the experimental tile It coincides perfectly with the vertex of the orange area. Other possibilities. A non -exclusive theory is that experimental metal tiles (there were others on board without active refrigeration) They will simply oxidize Due to the extreme temperatures of the reentry, leaving that trail of oxide color. What seems clear is that we are not seeing the result of a ablation. Starship silica tiles are reusable insulating, not ablative shields that disintegrate by design. If the tiles had worn up to the point of exposing the ablative material underneath, we would be talking about a catastrophic failure of the system. A torture laboratory. This visual result, far from being a failure, is the direct consequence of Spacex experiments for this flight. The Starship 37 has gone through an authentic test bench for the thermal shield, which Elon Musk himself has pointed out as The main technological stumbling block of the program. On this flight, Spacex withdrew tens of tiles in key areas to see how the lower structure endured. At the same time, he added metal tiles and with active cooling to look for more resistant alternatives in areas of maximum thermal stress. And softened the edges of some tiles to mitigate the hot points observed in previous flights. In summary, the orange color of the Starship does not seem to be a sign of a catastrophic failure, but the visible footprint of an experiment taken to the limit.

Flight 10 was a success and showed that the rocket can launch Starlink satellites

by

After Three failed attempts And the occasional catastrophic explosion, Spacex can breathe calm. He Starship’s tenth test flight He has fulfilled all the objectives that until now had resisted. Short. He larger rocket in the world Not only did it take off and reached space. He also displayed his first payload, a engine in vacuum re -founded and survived an infernal reentry to merit in a controlled way in the Indian Ocean. Starship’s tenth test flight demonstrates that Spacex’s iterative design still works. And although the vision of a totally reusable ship to colonize Mars is still far, Starship can already start throwing Starlink satellites. A promising start. At the scheduled time, the 33 Raptor engines of the Super Heavy propeller came alive, promoting with a deafening rumble the mole of more than 120 meters high. Although one of the engines failed halfway, it did not affect the mission at all, demonstrating the redundancy of the system. As he burned his 4,900 tons of propellant, the huge Starship rocket exceeded the phase of greater aerodynamic stress and hot separation, lighting the motors from the upper stage before separating. The Super Heavy began its return, but this time it did not look for a soft landing, but to complete a series of risky maneuvers. A skyscraper floating in the air. Booster 16 successfully performed its air in the air to change trajectory. After planning for a few minutes with its aerodynamic grilles and approaching the Gulf of Mexico, intentionally deactivated one of its central engines to test if a backup engine could take over. The most incredible moment came just after, when the 70 -meter rocket used two engines to fly over the ocean in stationary flight before turning off and meriting. As A commentator said“A 20 -story building in the air has just floated.” A milestone that demonstrates to what extent Spacex has controlled the capture of the super heavy with the launch tower, although the reentry is hard. The dispenser fish in action. While the Super Heavy completed its mission, the Starship 37 ship continued on its way to space. Once in his suborbital trajectory, the time for two of the most anticipated tests of the day came. First, the opening of the load bay and the first deployment of a payload. Using a mechanism that Remember a caramel dispenser fishthe ship eject one by one eight Starlink satellite simulators. This test is essential, since Starship’s future as a heavy load vehicle depends on it. Everything ready to launch Starlinks. Spacex plans to launch up to 60 Starlink V3 satellites in future Starship missions, adding 60 tbps capacity to the constellation with each launch, A more than 20 times higher figure to which a Falcon 9 can carry with the current V2 Mini. The rocket is able to reach orbit, display load (yes, it takes a minute per satellite) and then exorbitant. Flight 10 has returned to demonstrate the redempted of a huster engine in a vacuum. This capacity is indispensable to stop the rocket in a controlled way or perform a translunar injection for NASA Artemis missions. Surviving hell to tell. After an hour of flight, Starship began his reentry in the Earth’s atmosphere at hypersonic speeds. This is the time when the previous missions had failed. On this flight, however, the ship showed a robustness that reminds of the first releases. Although the cameras on board showed visible damage (some parts of the ailerons burned and the engines bay suffered a small explosion), the crucial thing is that Starship maintained aerodynamic control throughout the descent. Guided by its spoilers, the incandescent plasma of the resentment with total stability furrowed. The flight culminated with gentle and controlled ameter In the Indian Ocean. Although the ship was quite chamuscada, the simple fact of having completed the reentry and frightening in this way after three consecutive failures is a gigantic victory for Spacex. It is the definitive proof that Starship can start with Starlink launches. Image | Spacex Em xataka | It was hired by Spacex at age 14. Now, with 16, the young genius has turned his back on Elon Musk to go to Wall Street

It will be the penultimate flight before his hopeful redesign

by

Starship’s path to orbit is not being a straight line, and the last months of the highest rocket in the world exemplify it bleeding. After lose four consecutive ships And a super heavy, Spacex has turned the failures into data with which to improve its design. Soon we will know if they have worked: there is only one week left for the tenth release. Green light for the tenth flight. The Federal Aviation Administration of the United States has closed the investigation Of the last incidents of Starship and authorized to Spacex the next flight, scheduled for Sunday, August 24. The Tenth Mission of Starship will prove the opening of the load gate and the redempted of an engine in the space. In addition, Spacex engineers have deliberately eliminated several tiles from the thermal shield of the ship to study their behavior during the reentry. A summer of investigations. Starship’s ninth flight, which took place on May 27, ended with the disintegration of both the Super Heavy Booster 14 and Starship 35. A report From August 15, Spacex explained the cause of both incidents: Booster 14, that flew for the second timehe failed during the sprainage maneuver after Spacex put his structural loads to the limit. With a 17 degree attack angle, the fuel transfer tube was not able to withstand aerodynamic forces, which caused an explosive mixture of liquid methane and oxygen. The Starship 35 reached the planned speed, but a methane leak in the front cone, caused by a defective diffuser in the pressurization system of the main tank, compromised the rest of the mission. The lack of pressure prevented the ship from opening the loading gate, and caused the automatic systems to abort the engine redempted in space. The ship disintegrated turning without control in a reentry agonizing. To finish Sink morals in Starbasein mid -June, a brutal explosion made the windows of neighbor Brownsville tremble. Starship 36, which should fly on flight 10, disintegrated during a fuel load, generating a small Geopolitical conflict with Mexico. Spacex attributes the disaster to a structural failure in a secondary nitrogen gas deposit, possibly for undetectable damage. Booster 16 and Starship 37 ready to fly. With the causes of the latest failures already identified, Spacex has redesigned the diffuser of the ship and implemented more strict inspection protocols for pressurized nitrogen deps. Two new prototypes, Booster 16 and Ship 37, are ready for Starship’s tenth flight with such ambitious objectives as ever. The Super Heavy propeller will not try to return to the tower, but will merit in the Gulf of Mexico, simulating a failure in one of its landing engines To check if a backup engine can take over, ending the maneuver with a “stationary flight” on the ocean with only two lit engines. For its part, the Starship ship will try to open its gate for the first time and display eight Starlink satellites models in a suborbital trajectory (which will be burned during the reentry). It will also try to redecend a Raptor engine in the emptiness of the space to exorbitate in a controlled way. The most striking thing is that it will fly with a significant number of deliberately absent thermal tiles to submit vulnerable areas to greater stress and try new materials, as metal with active cooling. The reentry is also designed to make the most the rear flaps of the ship at the point of maximum pressure. Starship’s third version on the way. There are only two Starship flights with the current design, which has meant great headaches for Spacex. The company finalizes the development of the starship 3, of which We have seen full renders and some components already manufactured, such as Your new grid fins and Its gigantic fuel tube. Although the new Super Heavy will wear three aerodynamic grilles instead of four, they are 50 % larger and more robust. This new design not only allows descents with higher attack angles (just the maneuver that caused the failure in flight 9), but fulfills a double function. The new fins incorporate an anchor point and are located below in the rocket to align with the arms of the launch tower, which will use them to lift and catch the propeller. Being lower, they also receive less heat from the starship engines during the separation of hot stages. Images | Spacex In Xataka | What Spacex has achieved with Starship is incredible.

Thousands of people recorded a B-52 at a fair. Shortly after, a commercial flight had to maneuver sharply to avoid it

by

Skywest flight passengers, operated as Delta Connection between Minneapolis and Minot (North Dakota), starred in an unprecedented incident on Friday. The captain of Embraer 175 turned sharply The plane during the approximation by distinguishing a B -52 bomber from the American Air Force too close to its trajectory, which caused surprise and alarm on board. In a video recorded by the passenger Monica Green and Posted on Instagramthe pilot excuses the passengers: “Given their speed – they were military, I don’t know at what speed they were going, but they were much faster than us – I thought it was sure to turn around. They greatly apologize for the aggressive maneuver. It took me by surprise. This is not normal.” An unexpected event that is being investigated The FAA opened an investigation into the event on Monday. Skywest clarified thatdespite having permission to land, the flight made a frustrated approach maneuver By sighting another aircraft in its trajectory. The company is also evaluating the incident from its side. If you wonder what a B -52 was doing in that area, I was fulfilling a scheduled overflow for the North Dakota State Fair, As confirmed by the Air Force. That event is held in Minot, where a civil airport and an air base coexist. The military statement specifies that “The tower did not report the commercial plane”And, after exceeding the fairgrounds, he was ordered at the bomber to move three kilometers west. Tiktok @Theruralrose user recorded the two aircraft in the air from the North Dakota State Fair Platform monitoring data Flightradar24 reveal that he Embraer 175 He made an abrupt turn to the right, recovered altitude and remained waiting before restarting the approach. FAA added that air traffic control in Minot is managed by an external companywhose operators have “the same training and qualification requirements as those of FAA.” Green told CNN: “It was a very right turn and then he went quite to the sides. I looked out the window and all I saw was the grass.” The Embraer 175 belongs to the E -Jet family, a range of regional aircraft manufactured by the Brazilian Embraer. It is a narrow fuselage design thought for short and medium radio routes. Normally it transports between 76 and 88 passengers according to single or double class configurations, with turbofan engines GE CF34-8E and a vCruise elocity near 890 km/h (Mach 0.82).

The most surreal is not that a Patricia Fernández has supplanted another Patricia Fernández in the Royal House: it is her flight forward

by

A confusion of identities that seems out of a classic comedy of briefcases, portzos and persecutions, and that in principle might seem anecdotal, has become the most attentive Internet soil at the fauna influencer. The reason not the reputation of those involved, nor the ultimate reason after confusion, but the posterior reaction of one of them. A reaction that perhaps says quite a lot about how the sector is mounted. The mess. Last Friday, the 40th anniversary of the Signature of the Spanish and Portugal Adhesion Treaty to the European CommunityEvent through which both countries entered what today is the European Union. King Felipe VI and Pedro Sánchez were present at the event. Among the guests was the content creator Patricia Fernándezspecialized in culture, human rights and the European Union (more than 200,000 followers, from now on Patricia 1). However, the event was another Patricia Fernández, influencer that focuses its posts on issues related to lifestyle, fashion and decoration (almost 2 million followers, Patricia 2 hereinafter). The Royal House was to blame. The cause of confusion is very simple: as both creators are called the same, the Royal House was confused by sending the invitations. The curious thing about the situation is that Patricia 2 did not find especially strange to invite him to such an event, but he enjoyed it and even chatted for a while with the king. Patricia 1 has counted on their networks His point of view about the situation: “I have not wanted to speak before because, above all, I am a journalist. I wanted to talk to the primary source, which has already told me the error; they have apologized.” And the thing is still more complicated with the arrival of a Patricia 3. In Xataka Lola Lolita’s controversy and the 4,000 euros bag reveals something else: influencers have stopped having normal lives This third Patricia Fernández is Patricia Fernández VicensSpanish lawyer specialized in childhood, situations of social exclusion and migrations, and National Human Rights Award in 2022. Although it is a more notorious possibility to have been present at the act, the truth is that the invitation was for a influencer So, for now we stayed with the option of Patricia 1. “The statement has been worse than usurpation.” What has really caught the attention of networks It has been the reaction to the erroneous guestand that justified his presence in the event in the most pilgrim form: “I have created content for Europe and about sustainability and I was also born in 1985, the same in which the Spanish adhesion treaty was signed to European communities.” He also affirms that “human rights I do it phenomenal because I don’t get into anyone, I respect everyone (…) not to incite bullying, not destroy the image of a person, not insult, all that kind of thing also has a lot to do with human rights.” {“Videid”: “X8CVU8H”, “Autoplay”: True, “Title”: “How to eliminate a Tiktok account forever”, “Tag”: “Webedia-Prod”, “Duration”: “184”}} Patricia 2 also states that “given this uncomfortable done, I have also made my checks with the royal house and what is informed of my invitation was correct and that they were delighted to receive me, in addition to sending me a big hug for seeing me wrapped in this controversy without meaning.” Of course, commentators in networks They have been primed in error And in his refusal to recognize that there was perhaps a more appropriate Patricia Fernández for the event. The bonfire of vanities. For years, more or less since the profession of influencer He settled without problems in public normalitywe know that the dynamics of the popular content creators are based on APPEAR A STATUSa social status or a rise. Something with An unattainable point that make them desirable for his followers, and that generates situations as absurd as Anna Allen, the actress who invented for their social networks that had attended the Oscars, pure dynamic of desire to give carnaza to their fans.

That has generated a furious debate In this context it is in which confusions such as the two (or three) Patricia Fernández are given: an event in the Royal House is an exhibition, which is the currency of change of social networks, and there we have two Influencers fighting in the post, no matter how much one of the two seems unquestionably more appropriate than another to appear. A situation that brings the grief due to the confusion of the royal house and that leads us to the usual question: is it worth in exchange for a Care space in an account of only a few seconds?

A man has survived an accidental flight of 8,000 meters high. The video of the feat has cost him expensive: it occurred in China

To get an idea, 8,000 meters high equals what is known as “Death” area In mountaineering, that point where the atmosphere is so thin that the human body cannot survive much time without supplementary oxygen. We talk about an altitude similar to CIMA DEL Mount Everest (8,848 meters), and higher than the usual flight of many small commercial aircraft (below commercials, of course, which usually operate between 10,000 to 12,000 meters). Well, a man has reached that altitude accidentally. Also He has survived And there is A video. An accidental feat. In architectural terms, those 8,000 meters high would be like stack Torres Burj Khalifathe highest skyscraper in the world with 828 meters, or place several times Mount Fuji one over another. At that point, temperatures fall to tens of degrees below zero, atmospheric pressure is reduced to less than a third of the sea level, and without specialized equipment, even breathing becomes a small miracle. And yet, what began as a simple equipment test ended in an odyssey at such a height for Peng Yujiang, a Chinese parapetist who, without pretending to really take off, was caught by a powerful ascending current in the Qilian mountain range. It started from about 3,000 meters of altitude and, in just twenty minutes, it was driven another 5,000 meters to the sky. With temperatures up to -35 ° Ccovered with ice and with frozen hands, Peng tried to maintain paragliding control and communicate by radio with his friend on land, Gu Zhimin. The man remained more than an hour In the air, he momentarily losing consciousness and landed 30 km beyond of your starting point. A feat, but not recognized. Although the Chinese authorities have recognized the survival of Peg As something exceptional“No one can be 8,000 meters without oxygen and remain alive,” They saidexpensive has come out: a hard sanction has fallen with six months of prohibition to fly for not having registered his flight, which placed him outside the legal framework. The video of the incident we see above, engraved by PEG and disseminated by GU in the social network Douyin, became viral, generating admiration between the public and criticism among the officials, who also punished Gu with Six months of disqualification for disseminating the material without permission. By the way, although some have suggested that Peng could have broken a world record, the authorities ruled out for the Lack of official registration of the flight. Parallelism with an identical accident. Peng’s story remembers that of the record established in 2007 by the German Ewa Wiśnierskawho was also absorbed by a thermal current while flying in Australia and reached no less than the 9,946 meters high. As Peng, Wiśnierska lost knowledge during his flight, although he survived and discovered the altitude reached by reviewing his instrumentation after landing. The difference is that this record was officially recognized, and that of Peng, however extremely it would be, will be relegated to the chronicle of what impossible But not certified. For the Annals, an involuntary, amazing feat … and punished, first in China for the dissemination of graphic material, and then not fitting on the bureaucratic margins of air sport. A true penalty for such a flight. Image | X In Xataka | The British army wanted to celebrate the day D unfolding its paratroopers in Normandy.
