March

China has launched four supersecretos satellites since March. We don’t know anything about them except for four Buddhist gods

by

China continues strengthening their military positions In space. Almost always discreetly, but lately he has played the mystery. Surely there is someone in the Pentagon thoroughly investigating the deities of Buddhism. Context. Until recently, the patches of Chinese space missions did not stand out for their originality. They used to follow a fairly formulist design: circular shapes, a mixture of red and blue, and national symbols. But something is changing. We saw it with the patch of the last Shenzhou manned mission to the Tiangong Space Station, which He broke the mold With a triangular form. Now Ars Technica He has put the focus on four intriguing patches linked to four ultrasect satellite launches. These emblems have an artistic quality and colors that contrast with previous designs. They represent the four celestial kings of Buddhism. And this is where the thing gets interesting. The four heavenly kings. Since March, China has put in orbit four secret satellites with the names of these Buddhist gods. According to tradition, the four celestial kings are protective deities that guard the four cardinal points against the forces of evil and protect the dharma, the teachings of Buddha. The question is whether their names give a clue about the purpose of the satellites or the Chinese are playing the mistake. In China, the four celestial kings are known as: Duōwén Tiānwáng, Northern Guardian, “the God who hears everything,” represented with an umbrella. Zēngzhǎng tiānwáng, South Guardian, “The god of growth”, bearer of a sword. Tiānwáng, Eastern Guardian, “the defender of the nation”, which holds a rope musical instrument. Guăngmù tiānwáng, western guardian, “the God who sees everything,” represented with a snake. The four secret satellites. Coinciding with this iconography, China has launched four military satellites to the geostationary orbit, almost 36,000 kilometers above Ecuador, where they can remain fixed on the same region of the planet. The four ships have been cataloged generic like Tongxin Jishu Shiyan, “communications technology test satellites.” The TJS-15 took off on March 9 aboard a CZ-3B rocket; His patch represents GuĂngmù, the west guardian. The TJS-16 was released on March 29 with a rocket a CZ-7A; His emblem is Chíguó, the Eastern Guardian. The TJS-17 was released on April 10 with another CZ-3B; His patch corresponds to Duōwén, the northern guardian. Finally, the TJS-19 took off on May 12 (jumping to TJS-18 in the sequence) with a CZ-3C; His patch represents Zēngzhǎng, the South Guardian. Do your names say something? Although NASA considers them “Satellites for probable military purposes”, their names give rise to all kinds of additional conjectures. A god “who hears everything” with an umbrella can be a metaphor for a large drop -down antenna to capture weak signals, which would fit with a spying system or early missile alert. It is also possible that the Chinese authorities have approved these patches without major background or to divert attention to the real purposes of the satellites. What we do know is that these satellites did not travel alone. Terrestrial trackers have detected objects that seem to have separated from TJS-15 and TJS-17 in geosynchronous orbit. They could be sub-satellites or simply rocket stages. Militarization of space. The United States’s space force does not take an eye on these satellites. According to Comspocone of the satellites inspectors of the space force of the GSSAP program, known as USA-324, performed approximation maneuvers to TJS-16 and TJS-17 at the end of April. The American satellite approached about 17 km from the TJS-16 and about 12 km from TJS-17, “taking a look” to its new neighbors about the Western Pacific. This cat and mouse game is just one more sample of the revitalized militarization of space, where the Trump administration wants Build an unprecedented antimisile shield called “Golden Dome”. One of the proposals is partially based on Spacex Starlink satellites for missile detection and cost $ 175,000 million. In Xataka | China has taken the lead in military capabilities in space.

The problem of a “new March”

by

While I write this, the frontal systems associated with high impact storms Olivier “are abandoning the Canarian archipelago and the system Start moving The Peninsula. “The very brief advance of the summer that we have enjoyed these days is over and the rain returns. And no, it is not a rhetorical figure: the rain comes back and really returns. With an aggravating aggravation: that will arrive in the Holy Week. Olivier, at the doors. Late today on Thursday, April 10, La Borrasca will arrive at the Gulf of Cádiz and the first showers will appear (and a strong lift that will whip the Strait and the sea of ​​Alborán). On Friday, however, the letters will be on the table. A process of instability will begin that will fill with water and calm a good part of the Peninsula. In fact, it will most likely also affect the Balearic Islands. The epicenter, as in recent weeks, will be The Atlantic aspect with the southwest of Andalusia, Galicia and the central system as protagonists. So Holy Week is complicated. It is inevitable. For Saturday the showers associated with Olivier will affect much of the peninsular territory. Only the Mediterranean and the Canary Islands will fight from the cloudy skies and fresh temperatures. It will continue like this, with changes and particularities during the first half of the week. The good news is that, always according to the models, for Thursday and Friday the situation will improve. Everything seems to indicate that rainfall will be in remission and it is difficult for them to be so generalized from then on. Only in the northwest it seems to keep raining. Beyond Holy Week. And I do not mean “after” the Holy Week, but to that if we look at the general image that is going to give these weeks the situation that emerges is worrying. Not surprisingly, the ECMWF has just updated the monthly forecast of the SEAS5. And what does it say? As Duncan Wingen saysthe European model bets “for an extremely rainy April in the southwest quadrant and peninsular center zone, with wet anomalies of up to 50 l/m2 compared to the average in Western Andalusia, Sierra de Gredos and locally in the community of Madrid”. “This distribution in precipitation anomalies is indicative of a possible carousel of Atlantic storms, with southwest wind flows on the surface, providing abundant humidity through the Gulf of Cádiz.” That is to say, The same that happened in March. Does that mean that we are going back to “infinite rain”? Not necessarily. After all, there is still a long time ahead. However, the possibility that Borrascas begins to arrive is on the table. And there comes a time when so much water can end up generating a problem.

It seemed impossible for the rains of March to be bad news for someone. Until the watermelons and melons arrived

by

The huge rains of March have left much of the field offside and, for weeks, the generalized response has been the country. It is not for less: in the whole of Spain 149 l/m² have been accumulated2.5 more than usual. The benefits are huge: they are not only full swamps; but the fields of cereal, vineyard, olive grove and nuts at their best and a sweet moment in sheep, goat and milk bovine. But there are also great harmed. Who can water go wrong? Paradoxically, many crops: some vegetables (from broccoli to lettuce), the strawberries of Huelva, the harvest of potatoes, legumes and, above all, to the melon and watermelon. Is it for floods? In large part yes. In Murcia, more than 5,000 hectares of vegetables have been flooded and in Almería crops have been affected (both outdoors and greenhouse). It is thus understood that, during all this time, root asphyxiation has been one of the great fears of farmers. In essence, we talk about A phenomenon that occurs when the roots of the plants do not receive enough oxygen. This usually occurs when there is an excess of water on the ground; And, in fact, it can happen even if the ‘flood’ lasts for a short time. However, there are problems beyond suffocation. A good example is the chickpea. In his case he has not suffocated because, in short, he has not even come to be planted in provinces such as Seville (which concentrates a third of national production). As the Secretary General of Coag Sevilla says in The debatethe chickpea has to be more than 100 days in the countryside and “this year, hopefully, will pass 60”. Even in the event that the meteorology accompanies, the chickpea campaign It will be very bad. And, in addition, it is inevitable because farmers cannot plant anything else: the norms of common agricultural policy They force them to plant a certain percent of its land with legumes. And then we have the humidity. The rain has caused moisture levels to shoot and, With themthe “proliferation of pests and diseases such as the Botrytis (caused by a fungus) or the Mildiu” (groups several diseases that damage stems and leaves) “that are rotting the kills. And what happens to melons and watermelons? Another different thing. In the case of these crops, the situation is “worrying” because the rains arrived in “The most delicate moment, pollination“This has significantly delayed production to the point that seems unfeasible that early watermelons can reach the market on their usual dates. The hope of the sector, As explained by COAGis that great production is rethink. If no unforeseen occurs, that would allow the market of late watermelons and melons with force. But, of course, everything depends on what happens in the next few days. It is worth remembering that in recent years, these two summer fruits have starred controversial for its high prices and distribution problems. All to do. The great unknowns are now two: What water management will allow hydrographic confederations and the rest of the administrations, on the one hand. And how flexible will be the European Union With the restrictions of phytosanitary products In a context climatic extreme. However, there are many more things on the table. Many more problems, many more opportunities. Above all, before The perspective that this is the new normality.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on March 29

by

Indeed. We are on Saturday and you know what it means: today does not circulate sabbatino. Because punctual, once again, the restrictions of this program arrive that tries to improve the quality of the air we breathe. What are we talking about? Indeed, today does not circulate and its specific restrictions on Saturdays. The project designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) Try, as we said, to improve the air we breathe with a very simple measure: leaving our cars at home. Radical or not, that must decide each one. What is true is that, where it applies, there are some cars that cannot circulate. A measure that applies to the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Having all this in mind, everything we have to know about today is not collected in the superior image. But there are some details that are well taken into account and that may not be entirely clear. The first thing we should know is that, throughout the week, the hologram and the plate number is what defines who and when they can circulate. On Saturdays, yes, it is broken and the restrictions are the same but those affected are not always the same. This leaves us in the following situation: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another Restrictions, yes, do not apply all day. They are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without taking into account any type of restriction. Once we have these basic concepts in mind, how can we completely dominate the Sabatino today and thus not fall into the fines for breaking it? Remember that some cars will not be able to leave home. Specifically, we talk about cars with hologram 2. In this case, the plate number does not matter, cars with hologram 2 cannot move. On the contrary, cars with hologram 0 and 00 are not necessary to take into account the plate number because they can circulate freely. So which have more problems? The cars with hologram 1. In this case, they rotate every week. Thus, the Saturday, March 29 It will be the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in odd number those that rotate because we are on the fifth Saturday of March. Of course, we cannot forget that there are some exceptions that go beyond being able to circulate freely at night. Thus, the following cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

Spain has been superxplying its aquifers. March rains have given us the historical opportunity to save them

by

In recent years, we have spent hours and hours talking about swamps and reservoir water. And it makes sense: a good part of the country and its economy depend on them. However, if we only talk about reservoirs, we will be forgetting two out of ten Spaniards. And is that Spain is an aquifer country. According to The data of the Ministry of Ecological Transitioncover more than 90% of the national territory. That is between 20,000 and 30,000 cubic hectometers of water that are renewed annually. However, in the last decades we have been systematically overexploitation to the point that a good part of the country is being taken to the edge of technical bankruptcy. March rains give us a historical opportunity to solve this, the question is if we will be able to take advantage of it The clearest example is Doñana … The National Park lost “more than 80% of its marshes compared to the beginning of the 20th century.” However, more than half lost it in the last decade. That gives a clear measure of the voracity of the system: if the overexploitation has been able to denaturalize hectares and hectares of one of the most protected natural places in the country, what will not be happening with the rest? … But there are many more. Above all, because for most of the population what happens in Doñana It is still distant (problematic, rejectable, worryingYeah; but distant). The problem is that many regions depend critically on groundwater and the desiccation of aquifers exposes them to enormous water insecurity. The insecurity of which I speak has a very simple explanation: the agroganadero sector consumes 82.5% of the country’s water. That translates that most of the water passes through fertilized lands. It is not surprising that, according to the citizen network of measurement of nitrates, almost 60% of Spanish underground waters is contaminated by nitrates. If the subsoil is loaded with water, that pollution can be worrying, but is diluted. As soon as the water is scarce, the aquifers become unusable. The real problem is another. For decades, whether by their own decision or by omission, the Spanish authorities have lived back their aquifers. This explains a good part of the disorder and lack of control that surrounds them. Eyes that do not see, illegal irrigation that are allowed. Wwf Spain revealed in 2019 that The four most important aquifers in the country have been sheared for years. And presumably, goes much further. According to the reports of the Geological and Mining Institute“For decades, salinization of Mediterranean and insular Spanish coastal coastal aquifers have been known.” Despite this, “only in a few cases this situation is well managed.” As happens, for example, with the Malaga aquifer of Guadalhorce, Integral studies are missing of the entire aquifer to specify the existing reserves and determine the best extraction strategy “if it exists. Without knowing how much water there is and how that water is the situation becomes impossible to manage accurately. The opportunity of March. When we say that We have been failing for 30 years When preparing for the next drought (and diverting the resources we obtain from the improvement of efficiency to uses that abound in exploitation), we refer This kind of thing: The lack of a really ambitious management framework that recovers, manages and sanctions the aquifers of the country. March 2025 and the huge amount of water He has put in the channels has become a great opportunity to solve this. We have given us time to build these integral studies and make decisions for the future. Hopefully not missing her.

If the question is where and when to see the solar eclipse of March 29, NASA has created a map to answer you

by

This Saturday 29 we will have a new opportunity to see an eclipse (partial) of sun, at least if we are in an extensive region of the northern hemisphere that covers a good part of Europe (including Spain), but also parts of North America, Africa and Asia, and even a small region of South America. The eclipse, on a map. To help visualize where and when the Eclipse de Sol can be seen, the US space agency, NASA, has published a map in which the region is represented from which this partial eclipse will be visible. The map also includes time information with which to guide us. The yellow lines of the map They allow us to get an idea to what extent the sun covered by the moon will be depending on the place where we find ourselves. The area where more darkness is reached is located on Canada and Greenland, where more than 80% of the solar disc will be covered. The point of greatest concealment will see how it disappears about 93.1% of the disc area. The green lines, meanwhile, indicate the moment in which this maximum solar concealment occurs in each area. The hours are indicated in coordinated universal time (UTC), which during winter coincides with the time of the Canary Islands archipelago. One more hour in the Peninsula and in the Balearic Islands. The dawn line. The orange lines delimit the area where the eclipse will occur during dawn. The points that travel the orange line located further west are the places where the eclipse ends during dawn, while the orange line further to the east shows us where the eclipse begins with dawn. The blue line located between both joins the points where the eclipse will reach its peak during dawn. The map created by NASA to illustrate the eclipse route. NASA Scientific Visualization Studio. Where will you see better. Yes We focus on Spainthe darkness will be greater the more we find ourselves. Thus, for example in A Coruña, 31.6% concealment will be reached, while in Mahón the concealment will be 8.85%. In Madrid and Seville the concealment will be similar, about 20%. Less than in cities such as Gijón or Ponferrada (about 27%), but more than others such as Barcelona or Murcia (around 13.5%). Animated visualization of the areas that will be hidden during the partial eclipse of the sun of March 29. POT. When will it be seen. The eclipse will arrive in the morning and the first autonomous community in being able to see it It will be that of the Canary Islands. Specifically, it will be in the surroundings of the Punta de los Reyes, in El Hierro, where the eclipse will begin at about 9:11, local time. The shadow will move in a northwest direction so that the last point of the Peninsula in being able to see the eclipse will be Euskadi, more specifically in Hondarribia, where the sun will look again fully at 12:41 a.m. On the map We can see how in most of the Peninsula the maximum of the eclipse will occur between 10:30 UTC (11:30, local time or CET), and 11:00 UTC (12:00 CET). Caution. Eclipses are astronomical events easy to seebut dangerous for our view if we do not take precautions. It is essential to use protection if we want to see the eclipse but it is not enough with simple sunglasses, we need specialized glasses to be able to see this type of event without putting the health of our eyes at risk. We also have ways of seeing the eclipse indirectly and safely.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on March 22

by

Punctual like every week. Like every Saturday. As the child who gets up at seven in the morning and wakes you up on your rest day … here comes the Sabatino today. The fact that? Yes, the special restrictions of today do not circulate, the project designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) thought to reduce polluting emissions present in the atmosphere. And, of course, the one who forces some cars at home. This is because the operation It is very simple: if there are fewer cars there will be less air pollution. As simple as forcing the most polluting vehicles to circulate less. Remember, yes, we talk about a project that does not apply throughout the country. Specifically, it is underway in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Once we have all this clear … What do we have to know about today? Basically, as you can check above, every day a vehicle rests, with the aim of restrictions are rotary. During the week, it is the hologram and plate number that defines who and when they can circulate. However, On Saturdays they rotate And the restrictions are not always the same. This leaves us in the following situation: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another Restrictions, yes, do not apply all day. They are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without taking into account any type of restriction. Clarified the basic concepts, what do we have to be clear about the Sabatino today? Basically, that all drivers are affected in one way or another but, of course, not in the same way. This is because cars with hologram 0 and 00 may circulate freely and without fear of any type of restrictions. On the contrary, cars with hologram 2 will not be able to leave home or move any Saturday. We could say that they are the two sides of the same currency. And what about Hologram 1? That rotate. Thus, depending on the Saturday in which we find ourselves they can circulate one or the other. This restriction is decided with the latest plate number. In this case, in the Saturday March 22as we are on the fourth Saturday of the month, it will be the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in even number those that remain at home. Of course, we cannot forget that there are some exceptions that go beyond being able to circulate freely at night. Thus, the following cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on March 15

by

Yes, Saturday. Day of tranquility and relaxation … as long as you do not have a car affected by the Sabatino does not circulate today. As? Yes, the Sabatino does not circulate today. The special day of the project devised by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) thought to reduce the pollutant emissions that you are present in the atmosphere and, therefore, we breathe. The does not circulate today draws cars from the circulation, rotatingly to try to improve air quality. But that project has its own standards and restrictions. Some that are punished with fines that must be taken into account. Of course, it is necessary to be very clear that this applies in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today But what do we have to take into account with today’s Sabatino? The first thing is to have very clear the restrictions that are reflected in the superior image. Among those restrictions are the specific ones on Saturday. Because, indeed, Saturdays are a bit special days. Here the restrictions of today do not circulate habitual. With the applied standards, the following situations can be given: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another Restrictions, yes, do not apply all day. They are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without taking into account any type of restriction. What to take into account with today does not circulate Sabatino? That not all cars rest or can circulate without taking into account the week in which we are. Because, as we are telling, Saturdays are special. Thus, cars with hologram 0 and 00 will not be affected by restrictions. Yes, they can circulate without any problem any day of the week, including Saturdays. Those of Hologram 2 either have to think much whether or not they can use the car but there is a problem: they cannot move. Cars with hologram 2 have any problem because no week can circulate. This is because they are the cars considered as more pollutants. Hologram 1 do have to look at the plate number because depending on it they will have to circulate or stay at home. In this case, such as March 15 It is the third Saturday of March will be cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in odd number will have to stay at home. This is because every week pounds a plate number. Thus, this week the cars with odd plate number rest and next week they will be done by plaque with torque number. And thus, successively even and odd they rotate. Of course, we cannot forget that there are some exceptions that go beyond being able to circulate freely at night. Thus, the following cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

A recruiter has given the key to what is the perfect time to find a new job: in March

by

In the same way that it is convenient to wait for the right time to request a salarythe job search also has its “sweet point” at a certain moment of the year in which the options of Find a new job They increase. As Beatriz Gómez, a specialist in Human Resources, in a hung video In your Tiktok profileMarch is the more conducive month to find a job due to the specific situation in the internal processes of companies. Choose the perfect moment According to HR expert, the month of March is the key moment for those who wish to find a new job. This is because, after Christmas holidays, companies spend the months of January and February in internal organization processes and Fiscal year closure. During those first months of the year, companies approve the annual budgets they have been preparing during the final months of the year. In these budgets the growth strategies of the companies are established, so Green light is given to new vacancies to cover the expansion objectives of the selected departments. Similarly, during the first weeks of the year, companies close their budgets for new projects and orders, so it is more likely to open new personnel selection processes for cover employment vacancies and reinforce the template during these first months of the year. Review templates Gómez points out that, in addition, between January and February the Performance assessments of all its employees. That leaves the door open to new additions to replace those employees who have not met the marked objectives. On the other hand, many employees decide take the new year To start a new stage in your work career, so the Hiring activity intensifies during the first quarter of the year. In parallel to the performance assessments of the entire template, the salary increaseswhich are one of the main reasons for job dissatisfaction. “A lot of talent does not agree with that increase and end up leaving,” the number of vacancies increasing during this period. This hiring pattern at the beginning of the year is not something new, but It is repeated cyclically every year. Gómez explains that fluctuations in work teams and in the need for personnel are part of the natural flow of companies. The data is right This “sweet point” for job search has its reflection in the official employment data that the INE collects in the Active Population Survey. Leaving aside the annual trends, there is a constant that is repeated year after year: the employment figures recorded during the first quarter of the year are always better than those of the fourth quarter of the previous year and, in many cases, than those of the second quarter of the same year. Unfortunately, You can’t always choose When to look for a new jobbut if you have been active job search for a few months, March can be a very conducive month to find the job opportunity you were waiting for, given the “need for new additions and job opportunities,” Gomez said in his video.
