Again, the desig of Formula 1 racing car will evolve at next racing season. Its size widened, and uses larger tires, as well as downforce increased better than the current model's. The realization of the F1 racing car was quite different though still can be recognizable as a F1 racing participant.

So, like what the form of the F1 racing car in the future? Here's Motorsport site try to guess a radical design F1 racing car about 15 years into the future. And the Mercedes AMG F1 team's car was taken as an example of change. In the design of future's F1 racing car, the nose of the car formed a sloping line to the visor and covered most of the driver's cabin.

The driver's cockpit position is also quite low at which point the top of the cabin is almost parallel to the top of the front wheels. Claimed the racer could see into the side though attached canopy due to its design was high and blend up to the middle panel.

The most obvious change is the design which has a rigid angle with additional transverse fin blade to split the wind. Meanwhile, the front wing changed design with V-shaped design with a cross section curved downward.

Other changes are in the engine cover at the same time is the middle fin made increasingly slim. At this time custom image, the side body panels widened to cover the front of the rear wheels as fender.
From the concept, it is still unclear whether the design is feasible for use in the racing tracks or just automotive designer's imagination. We'll wait and see you later. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | MOTORSPORT]
Some scientists revealed that the creation of the apocalypse could be as easy as pressing a button. Moreover, the process of self-destruction the universe will erase everything and will not bring new things anymore.
The theory described in animation video uploaded by Kurzgesagt on Youtube. In the video explained that the basis of self-destruction consists of the concept of energy levels and stability."More higher levels of energy, there is more energy in a system," says the narrator in the video titled 'The Most Efficient Way to Destroy the Universe - False Vacuum.'
The universe continues to grow rapidly until today. (Picture from: http://adf.ly/1f6Aj7)
The video explains that in the world of quantum mechanics which determines how the universe works on subatomic scale, and the ground state theory was correct.
Throughout the universe, particle tried to release the energy to reach the ground state in order to become more stable. Just like everything in the universe, particle strive to achieve the lowest possible energy phase is called the vacuum state.
However, these phases become unusual when it comes to the Higgs field, which is the quantum field that describes how most elementary particles in the universe acquire the mass. Higgs field did seem to be in the lowest energy state like a vacuum state, but actually it is not as stable as people think - false vacuum.
If the energy level is likened to the mountain, the Higgs field is located in a valley in the middle of the mountain with a steep slope on the other side. It shows that the Higgs field actually has a lower phase and has a great potential energy waiting to be released.
Physicists are not sure what caused it. But if the Higgs field has fallen to a lower level, it releases huge amounts of energy and trigger an endless chain reaction that can lead to destruction.
In the Higgs field process towards the actual stable phase, the energy released to make space around more energetic. "The new and stable of Higss field scope, growing in the speed of light in all directions," said the narrator of the video.
If the destruction of the universe occurred as a result of a chain reaction due to false vacuum, it will happen in an instant, and people will not see it coming.
Destruction that will replace the standard model of how the universe behave and interact. Due to this, atomic and quantum components makes them not act the same way, where there is no more chemical reactions and life.
Check out the explanation in the video below:
But in the end the video narrator explains that at this time we do not need to worry, because until now their understanding of particle physics, there may still be an error. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | ]
Of the many contestants of the Kustomfest 2016 which was held in October 8-9, 2016, 'The Verificacao' of Queen Lekha Chopper (QLC) became one of the most attracted the event's visitors.
The design of Yamaha XS650 engined motorcycle was simple and carried a typical traditional classic chopper with amazing details. So naturally if the highest award in Japan Chopper and Bobber class successfully achieved. And according to QLC owner AgungSatria, it took time about six months to build this bike and really prepared to perform at the Kustomfest 2016.

"Initially, motorcycle owners want to build of a British motorcycle, due to the components are mainly machinery is not available and hard to find, finally we turn to Japanese motorcycles. We built by using the 1977 Yamaha XS650 engine," said Yaya, as he usually addressed.
After that the work on the motorcycle is started and as if a race against time given the timing of the Yogyakarta's motorcycle festival event approaching (6 months). Fortunately, the machine acquired was in a healthy condition. So that they stay focused on the frame making of 4 mm seamless pipe.

According to the concept, the stern designed hardtail or rigid, while its springer front fork made with a slope angle of 28º. And the fork itself use solid iron material which is then layered with chrome by the builder who had opened the garage from 2011 ago.
Here are several detailed pictures of the Verificacao. (All pictures taken from: http://adf.ly/1f6MkP)
What is unique is the design of the tank as well as the rear fender, looked layered with a grating that is on the inside. Details, this grid whitewashed with dark color, contrast with the matte black tank that sprinkled by glitter.

"To make it look nicer, the seat designed like a thin triangle, small at the front and wide at the bottom," explained the owner of the garage located in the Green House residential complex, Karangkajen Mergasan, Yogjakarta.
The details of Cahaya Prayoga motorcycle used a clear handlebars without any handle. Mechanism of throttle shells were also made detail, recycle of manual hand drill. Uniquely the tip of exhaust instead taken from the pipe connections. After all chrome plated, so it looks fancy is not it? Kept spur your adrenaline on the power of two-wheeled monster and stay alive with the true safety riding.

Determining the size of the Earth is one of the most difficult problems for natural philosophers since ancient times. In the 2nd century BC, the Greek astronomer and mathematician named Eratosthenes began developing methods of measurement to calculate the meridian arc and compares it with the angle of the Earth's center.
The northernmost station of the Struve Geodetic Arc is located in Fuglenes, Norway. (Picture from: http://adf.ly/1f4f32)
This method last up to two thousand years even though the accuracy of measurement is very low, ie approximately one percent. Eratosthenes calculates the arc length by measuring the time it takes for people to cross the desert and the angle by measuring the difference between the altitude of the Sun with latitudes.

In the 16th century, discovered a new measurement technique called triangulation. This method uses the arcs within the short to measure accurately, while the distance can be determined using a triangular link chain.
Triangulation allows the astronomers and cartographers to accurately measure the distance that stretch hundreds and thousands of kilometers. During the 18th century, many bows are built across Europe, but the longest is the Struve Geodetic Arc.
The Arc that stretches along 2,820 kilometers has allowed the most accurate Earth's measurements of the history. Yes, the man behind this arcs was a Russian-born German scientist named Friedrich Georg Wilhelm von Struve who conducted in-depth survey during 1816 up to 1855.
And the Struve Geodetic Arc consists of 258 triangles connecting 259 triangulation points, snaking from the northern coast of Norway to the southern coast of Ukraine. Currently, hundreds of points are located in 10 different countries namely Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine and Moldavia.

As quoted of the Amusing Planet, the measuring stations or points marked in various ways, such as stone monument, memorial, rock drilled, until the sign of the cross on the rock surface. Of the overall 259 measurement points, 34 of which were recorded collectively in the list of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | AMUSING PLANET]
Ducati should alert to the innovation of their compatriot manufacturer. Recently MV Agusta, the motorcycle manufacturer who also came from Italy leaked the figure of 'Turismo Veloce Lusso,' as the main rivals of Ducati Multistrada.
On its minor refresh this time, MV Agusta tried to focus on Euro-4 oriented technical standardization. The changes include re-mapping an updates ECU and improved the performance of catalytic converter that makes its size stretchy. And MV Agusta created the bike taken base of their Brutale 800 naked bike plus various the feature changes.
As quoted of Autoevolution, the name of Turismo Veloce comes from the Italian, which means fast tourer that directly show characterize the motorcycle. And the Lusso suffix, which is the equivalent of Luxury speaks about high-tech helping you ride better, in more comfortable conditions and for a longer time, and not the sum of blingy materials and useless stuff.
In terms of design, MV Agusta retained the fairing distinctive style similar to the F4. The difference, Turismo Veloce Lusso uses half fairing with upright visor style. On these adventurer motorcycles also already include a trellis frame as the engine cover.
To support its performance in two worlds, this sport adventure motorcycle using semi-active suspension at the front and Sachs shockbreaker at rear. In addition, there are eight traction control settings are divided into three modes namely tourism, sport, and rain.
Not only that, the Varese-based manufacturer also released the RC version of Turismo Veloce Lusso with characteristic MV Agusta racing team livery in a combination of red, white, and green colors. Reportedly both, the Turismo Veloce Lusso and RC version will debut at the EICMA 2016 in Milan next few weeks.
