Fastest train in the world Shanghai maglev.

-
The Shanghai Maglev Train is a magnetic levitation train, or maglev line that operates in Shanghai, Chinan.. The line is the first commercially operated magnetic levitation line, and the only high-speed magnetic levitation line in the world

 The Shanghai Maglev has a length of 153 metres (502 ft), a width of 3.7 metres (12 ft), a height of 4.2 metres (14 ft) and a three-class, 574-passenger configuration.
 During a non-commercial test run on 12 November 2003, piloted by Jonathan Texiera, a maglev train achieved a Chinese record speed of 501 km/h (311 mph).

 Construction of the line began in March 1, 2001,[1] and public commercial service commenced on 1 January 2004. The top operational commercial speed of this train is 431 km/h (268 mph), making it the world's fastest train in regular commercial service since its opening in April 2004.

 Unlike regular train tracks Shanghai Maglev has no wheel and it float on magnetic field exist between the train and track. This electromagnetic pull offers by the strong magnates let the train to fly over the track as there is no contact between train and track.

 It operates between Long Yang road and Pudong international airport.  The Shanghai maglev only takes 7 minutes and 20 seconds to complete the whole journey. The total passenger capacity of the Shanghai maglev train is 574. The train operates between every 15 minutes. It cost US$8 for one ticket and US$16 for VIP ticket to travel in Shanghai maglev.

Born in Frauenfeld, Switzerland, Julius took over a hammer mill from his father in 1869. At the time the milling industry was in crisis so Julius decided to open up new areas of production. He got in touch with physician Fridolin Schuler who had a concept for improving the nutritional content of meals for the labouring classes by making packaged foods out of milled pulses or legumes. Together they began product development and after two years of experimentation, the first industrially produced leguminous flour was put on the Swiss market in 1884. When the expected market breakthrough failed to occur, Julius went back to the drawing board and created MAGGI ready-to-use soups in in 1886, then launched MAGGI flavouring later in the year. More and more new products followed between 1887 and 1889. Julius op

The following are   NASA's plan if an asteroid is heading to Earth  Step 1: A text message would be sent to a team of 12 scientists.  Step 2: The scientist immediately start tracing the asteroid's path  Step 3:  They measure the size of the object and predict the time of impact  Step 4: They confirm with authorities whether the impact is unavoidable.  Step 5: A public statement would then be issued. Photo by  Bryan Goff  on  Unsplash Then NASA and emergency agencies how best to protect the Earth. They have simulated this experiment many times and come up with a few defensive options. They include firing lasers into the asteroid. Crashing a spacecraft into an approaching asteroid is another possibility. As is detonating a bomb next to an incoming object. There is no risk at the moment though. NASA can't detect any asteroid currently heading towards us. No large object is likely to strike for at least several hundred years.
