Mystery or Fact? Most fatal day of the year.

THE FACT AND MYSTERY OF DEATHS IN AMERICA ON NEW YEAR DAY:



According to recent research done in University of California, it has been brought into light the fact and mystery about the number of deaths occurring in America on the first of January is overwhelmingly greater than any other day in the whole year. So if we are to say that most of the deaths in America occur on first of January.

So if we are to say that most of the deaths in America occur on first of January.
Deaths in America


In this research death certificates of Americans dating back to 25 years were examined which were issued on the first (1st) of January and most of the deaths were due to a natural cause.



The research included the data of Americans who died of a natural cause and it was observed that deaths occurring due to a simple, life threatening diseases or due to old age were numerous while deaths due to some accidents were not included.



While it is a hard fact in America, this mystery has also been observed in other parts of the world. For an instance, figures from the National Records of Scotland show a similar pattern. Between 2008 and 2013 the annualised daily average death figure was round about 149 but this rose to 166 deaths per day for January. Similarly the annual reports of the registrar general for Northern Ireland show that the number of deaths during January is 10% higher than the annualised daily figure.

One of the conclusion was that the deaths are mostly due to cold weather, as it is a common misconception that people are more susceptible to diseases in winter.
"Many of us think that when the weather is cold outside we're going to be much more likely to get sick and that actually is not true at all," says Rachel Vreeman, a global health researcher."They test this by putting cold viruses right into people's noses and then exposing them to very cold temperatures, having them wear warm clothing or not warm clothing, hats on or no hats, and they see no difference in how likely you are to get sick."

But still the mystery remains unsolved. David Philip, a professional in researching about the deaths in America says that its difficult to draw a conclusion about most of the deaths occurring on the first of January. But it is still a fact, and a mystery.

Experimental error! or a Reality? Amazing Facts about EmDrive

The EmDrive


Also known as "RF resonant cavity thruster" is new principle of electric propulsion for spacecraft has been introduced, which involves the use of microwave technology for the direct conversion of D.C power to thrust without the need for propellant.
The concept of EmDrive was basically introduced by Roger Shawyer, an aerospace engineer in 2001 and promotes the concept through his company "Satellite Propulsion Research LTD (SPRLTD)".

China and America started work on the EmDrive in 2010. After six years in December 2016 China claimed the successful operation of EmDrive engine succeeding America Again.
Dr. Chan Yu director of the CAST (China Academy of Space and technology) has confirmed the successful operation of EmDrive Technology on Dec 10, 2016. Moreover the CAST is planning for practical operation of EmDrive technology in space in September 2017.
A simplified description of the principles of the operation of EmDrive is given. The implications of the law of conservation of energy are examined for both static and dynamic operation of the device. 

Basic Principles

This technique involves the use of radiation pressure at microwave frequencies, in an engine which provides direct conversion from microwave energy to thrust, without the need for propellant.

Microwave energy is fed from a magnetron via a tuned feed to a closed tapered wave-guide, whose overall electrical length gives resonance at the operating frequency of the magnetron.
The group velocity of the electromagnetic wave at the end plate of the larger section is higher than the group velocity at the end plate of the smaller section.  Thus the radiation pressure at the larger end plate is higher than that at the smaller end plate. The resulting force difference is multiplied by the resonant assembly.



Pros and Cons:


There have been no cons of EmDrive till now but the Pros are as under.


  • This successful operation of EmDrive engine will make a rapid change in Aerospace Technology in every aspect.
  • The spacecraft using EmDrive Technology will be very light in weight and very quick than the rest due to zero consumption of any kind of Fuel.
  • As EmDrive technology does not follow the 3rd law of Newton (action and reaction are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction), it will be cost efficient due to zero consumption of any kind of fuel.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           If this Theory comes true, and the Chinese claim becomes truth, the spacecraft will be able to reach Mars in only ten days, will you believe this? Only Ten days. Now scientists will be able to reach other planets in very short time and we people will be able know truths about other planet’s life. I am really excited about this.
